  1. With the start of the conference season, I thought I would provide a fundraiser update. Altogether, we have raised $3240! Thanks to the 60 users who have already donated! Your generosity helps keep this community online! And I am fairly confident that donations are still in the mail. Currently, the Billikens.com bank account has a positive $2565 balance. It would be great to get this up to $3000 to let us be comfortable for the next two years (no matter what the site will stay online). I will keep the fundraiser active for another week or so, as some may have missed the fundraiser during the holidays. During this time, I will also update people's accounts to reflect that they are donors (and give out reactions). Thanks again to everyone who has donated and participates in this community.

  5. I have always been proud to say that Billikens.com is supported by its users. Twenty years ago, Billikens.com held its first fundraiser, and users' generosity has allowed me to run this site without ads or subscriptions. It has been over three years since our last fundraiser, and the Billikens.com bank account is in the red. I then ask for your generosity once more to help keep the site running without resorting to ads. To provide information about operation costs, server costs are approximately $1300/year, and message board software costs are $80/year. I recognize that everyone's financial situation is different, so I completely understand if you are unable to donate. Users can donate at http://www.billikens.com/donate by PayPal, and my Venmo username is smrogers. If asked for verification, the last four digits of my phone number are 8531. If you would like to donate by check, private message, or email me at [email protected], and I will send you my address. Any level of donation is appreciated. Donors will be recognized on the message board as a Billikens.com donor for the next two years. If you donate $40 or more, you will receive ten bonus reactions a day on the message board for two years. If you donate by Venmo, put your username in the message. If you donate by PayPal, I will email you to learn your username (if I cannot figure it out from your email address). If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me by private message. Thank you for your continued support. Happy Holidays, Steve
  6. Jimmerson foul was never televised... Camera cut away. Gibby owes TJ a few at Humphrey’s
  7. Game replay is on Channel 826 on Charter. Currently about 10 minutes to go in the second half if interested in the ending.
  8. I was celebrating the first TJ 3 and missed the Jimerson foul. Was it intentional?
  9. On our 3 by Hughes, that was very good ball movement

  15. In a SLU Political Science and Billiken Basketball cross-over, I thought I would share that @Wendelprof's father now has an endowed scholarship in his name for Political Science Students. https://www.slu.edu/give/news/wendel-scholarship.php?fs=e&s=cl One of Wendel’s most significant areas of research centered on the city of St. Louis. In the 1960s, residents started the decades-long trajectory of moving to the suburbs, raising concerns of what a declining city population might mean for the region. The trend also swayed SLU’s lay advisers, who urged Reinert to move SLU out of the city. Reinert believed in the promise of urban renewal and was committed to keeping SLU in St. Louis. Wendel’s influence played a significant role in fulfilling Reinert’s vision. In 1973, Wendel participated in the RAND Corporation's report "St. Louis: A City and Its Suburbs," prepared for the National Science Foundation. Through that report and his own research, Wendel concluded that... Tapped to participate in the RAND Corporation’s “St. Louis: A City and Its Suburbs” report prepared for the National Science Foundation in 1973 and through his own research, Wendel concluded that “SLU was an anchor for the stability of the city,” according to his wife, Mary, who helped Dr. Wendel with his research. His findings affirmed Reinert’s decision: Keep SLU right where it was in the city and purchase land for a major campus expansion — in St. Louis. A Love for St. Louis and SLU As a “man for others” and throughout Wendel’s half-century connection with SLU, he lived a life of higher purpose for the greater good. He loved SLU, and as a years-long season ticket holder, Wendel never missed an opportunity to cheer the athletes or serve as scorekeeper for the men’s basketball team. Wendel passed away in 2000. Nearly 25 years later, his research and commitment to urban affairs and public policy continue to help shape a thriving urban Jesuit university and a prospering Midtown. And because of the new scholarship in his name, Wendel’s legacy will be carried on by students who will benefit from his foresight. “His love for Saint Louis University and the Center for Urban Programs was matched only by his love for his students,” Wendel’s family said in a statement. “It is humbling that he is being recognized for something that came so naturally to him: His commitment to his students, the Center for Urban Programs and the City of St. Louis.”

  17. I actually have the newspaper of the announcement of the Rams moving to StL. I don't have it for the 2000 Superbowl win (but I do have the Sports Illustrated issue). I remain a Rams fan. I followed the team for 10 years when I was away in St. Louis, so it is not all that different now. Additionally, I want a football team - but don't want to be a bandwagoner.
  18. Don't undersell us....we scored 20 at GW. Not sure if I ever posted this here, but this is a wall near my home office area:
