That would be awesome, but I seriously doubt that is happening. How much time does Lee have left? Wasnt' there talk about him leaving early for the NBA this year (not that I agree)?

I think most of the people on this board work all day. It's pretty easy to read and contribute to this board while at work. If you had half a brain, you could probably do the same.

Agreed. I just can't stand the Lakers this year. They have an all-star team with an all-star coach and they are getting spanked by Detroit. They play with no team chemistry and they don't even look like they give a crap about losing. The L.A. Lakers epitomize everything that's wrong in the NBA...

"Legendary high school giant sophmore"....can you elaborate a little more? I should probably know who your talking about, but I'm drawing blank.

Miss world to hula hooping at a Borders. Sounds like a bad E! True Hollywood Story.

You almost used the "S" word in a positive manner...

Well, you win some; you lose some. I'm pretty happy with the fact that we're the new kids on the block and come in playing 2 of the top three teams in the conference twice a year. We could have gotten stuck with Duquesne and Fordham...

Any potential future Billikens on your squad, Thicks?

Guess we couldn't get Costas again. http://slubillikens.collegesports.com/genrel/051704aaa.html

That's pretty impressive. I'm not a soccer fan and don't know much about the sport, but having national freshman of the year is a pretty big deal. Congrats Ibisevic!

Man, that kid sure does look athletic. I'm pretty excited about this pickup. If he can transition to D-1 next year, him and reggie in the backcourt could be pretty amazing.

It's really great to hear that our athleticism is being upgraded so much. That has definitely been our downfall as along as I've been following the Billikens. But what has happened to all the 4's? We seem to be picking up great gaurds, but our black hole last year was at the PF position. It appears as if it will be the same next year. Am I way off base here?

"I'm sure you would look splendid in any of those colors Roy ... a little ***** Eye for the SLU Guy" LOL!! Great stuff..

Has Nick Kern suited up yet? Last I heard, there some some controversy over him playing on the team and with Irons. Has anybody seen him play lately?

I think I remember hearing there was going to be a scrimmage or two with him here this weekend. Did anybody happen to catch the action?

Yeah, i don't think many people around here really thought we were gonna make the next round, but we were sure pumped for even being in the playoffs. You're right about the Titans. When I left for SLU in '98, the VOLS were the only think to talk about in town. Now they are playing second fiddle to the Titans. The downtown area around the arena and stadium is great. Nashville really is the best place I've ever lived.

I know it! I'll be suprised if we pull it off against Detroit, but we are certainly in the run for it. Vokoun is incredible...

I don't know much about the USBL. Is this a league some pro's/future pro's play in after college but before the draft? There were some very high profile players in that first round that got drafted after Kern (i.e. the POY Jameer Nelson). Is that just for show, or do these guys actually suit up?

Ok, maybe you only responded to this thread in jackass fashion. I read your response to the sorority thread afterwards and thought the same thing. Addmitedly, that one was not as bad. I guess since I've never bothered to respond to your dribble and since today was a slow day here in system support, I decided to post and catch up on subject matter. It seems most of this board has given up trying and just ignore you. Sorry guys, I will try and do the same. Sorry for ruining this thread SLU72.

Well, for clarification, I have never said we're not obsessed with Mizzou. These are MAJOR stories we talk about on here. Most of this board pays taxes that fund YOUR education. If you are from Missouri, people associate that with the University of Missouri (just like when I say I'm from Nashville, I get questions about the Vols). The fact of the matter is that most of the things we talk on here are pulled from PUBLIC NEWS sources (notice "most"). In a lot of cases, it's national coverage. Added to that, is the fact that it happens in the same state as our University. Missourians should be ashamed of some of these accusations. And from what I see on here, most of them are. So we talk about it. Like I said in the last message, i usually let you ramblings go because the are well provoked. But today you have provoked ALL of these arguments and have been a true troll.

Dude, get a life. I usually let you go because I think some of the guys on this board go a little over board and you have some valid points sometimes. But this post and most of your posts today have been worthless. Yes, it's a SLOW day for Billikens. Yes, we enjoy Missouri's pain and suffering (at least a majority of us). And yes, there seems to be a lot of Tiger talk on here lately. But since we aren't in the news on a daily basis for inappropriate behavior, there is less to talk about. If you're a Mizzou fan, post on the Tiger board. But don't come over to a place that has obviously had enough of you and try an be Mr. Sarcastic /High and Mighty

I'll probably get some flack for posting this, but I couldn't resist. Nothing goes right for these guys... http://www.cnn.com/2004/HEALTH/04/13/soror...s.ap/index.html
