  1. New profile picture. One of my favorite Billikens.
  2. Yeah, yeah, who cares about Mizzou. Or we spend too much time ragging on Mizzou. Whatever -- this is funny! http://fox4kc.com/2017/06/26/recent-mu-graduate-accused-of-driving-onto-mizzou-arena-basketball-court-causing-100000-in-damage/
  3. http://www.columbiatribune.com/sports/20170619/jeremiah-tilmon-arrested-for-minor-in-possession
  4. Eight years of Jesuit education. (And the high school part was before corporal punishment was considered anathema. )
  5. Wait, what? That's the exact quote that I use as the very first thing I give my students in my food writing class at WashU. Cool.
  6. https://www.shinesty.com/collections/party-suits/products/the-bavarian-oktoberfest-suit
  7. Well, we did hit a couple of layups. That's already an improvement.
  8. Thanks! I could have sworn there was a matching jacket, but as I think about it, the one guy I remember wearing it all the time had a fairly bright color of solid blue jacket. However, I did find this -- I'm "checking" on color varieties.
  9. Does anyone have a link for those hideous, gaudy, wonderful Billiken-blue large-checked suits that I used to see at the games occasionally, especially sitting courtside?
  10. As would have been Senator Larry Craig. Oh, wait...
  11. I wondered that too, and have for years, because I was always under the impression that the coach can't step onto the court. Apparently he can: I read this that he can walk out three feet. No?
  12. 1a. The coach's box rule will be enforced.
  13. I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to get at here (not questioning your motives -- just not sure of the intended point), but the numbers on at least eight of those teams are so high because they were conference games.
  14. If you ever visited Saigh during office hours, you saw my dad. Davis-Shaughnessy 202A. Bill and Bill. Birthplace of the Lettuce Leaf.
  15. I see a prime candidate for head of the SLUnatics in 2018 or so. Grew up with entrepreneur parents, and clearly has genes that make her smart as a whip. Student tickets will soon have a long waiting list.
  16. This is basically just a way to brag on my kid, who sat with us for about six years when my dad was still alive (and 11 years since). This was my surprise Christmas present, just installed last month. However, for any other fan offspring, Father's Day is coming up...
  17. That's simply a subtle culinary joke. White chocolate isn't really chocolate.
  18. Major Majerus and I are experts in the many UC-Davis grads who have gone pro and made names for themselves, Just ask.
  19. Shouldn't we all be Justin Love is freakin' 38 years old. Jesus Freakin' Christ.
  20. They should change their name to the Opioids -- they'd have JeffCo recruiting locked up. They wouldn't even have to think about a mascot. Edit: Instant home-and-home with SIUC.
  21. Can Danny himself be a grad transfer?
  22. This story should be oft repeated, first because it's arguably a presaging of the horrid administrative oversight in Columbia that culminated in the demonstrations, and second because SPUMAC. 24 hours in a summer. Some sources now say it was all at Barton CC, but this one is even more of an indictment of Mi$$ouri. http://www.sltrib.com/sports/1733924-155/clemons-missouri-snyder-season-ncaa-basketball 12 hours at Barton, nine hours at BYU through distance learning, and "three hours more in a study-by-mail course from a college in Colorado." And no one in the compliance department even raised an eyebrow, or it they did, it was quickly smacked down by a higher-up. Tell your children as a cautionary tale.
  23. They only have had questionable academic sleight-of-hand with players named "Ricky." Otherwise they're clear. There. I fixed it for myself.
