  1. It's good to hear that Floyd is doing well. If I may add a few questions, did he look like he was in playing shape? I thought I remember that he had put on quite a bit of weight while he was injured. Also, how many years of eligibility would he have left - two? If Floyd can stay healthy enough to become a contributor, it could have a big impact on this team.

  2. No, it's actually literally one block to the north of the old Firehouse night club, across the street from a building that is being rehabbed as lofts. It's a small, narrow building with a large red door in the block of Locust west of compton, and it sits across the street from a large building that is currently being renovated as lofts. I don't know if we have the capability to show pictures on this forum, but I have a photo of the building if anyone would be interested in seeing it.

  3. Sorry you feel that way. For me, watching that kid for the last four years was a painful experience. In my mind, Diener will always be associated with the wasted days of Lorenzo Romar's tenure at SLU (and yes, I know that Spoon recruited him). I'm hoping we've upgraded the talent level on this team and have a good feeling about the future prospects of Brad and the Diener-free Billikens.

    And besides, I wrote my signature as a joke. Lighten up.

  4. There was a recent article on the arena in the West End Word, a community newspaper that serves my neighborhood, the Central West End. It profiled a man who recently purchased a firehouse on Locust that has been renovated into a very nice living space and just happens to be in the way of our new arena. Apparently, he is talking with the university about moving the firehouse to another location instead of having it demolished. Definitely not a cheap option, but it's nice to hear about SLU working to accomodate people who have made an investment in the neighborhood.

  5. I'm sure if we can convince A-B to donate some of the money or purchase the naming rights, beer sales will be part of the equation. And that's a good thing since beer has helped me make it through many a Billiken basketball game.
