West Pine Jim Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Thanks for the info, torch. Quite interesting. Quote
Basketbill Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Thanks Must have been a ton of work! Quote
almaman Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 really good job. one ? Who, what , where on Washburn Reid? Quote
MusicCityBilliken Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 I wonder if we gave up too soon with Reid. Encouraged him to come back after he fully recuperated from that concussion suffered at the ND game. Was supposed to be very good outside sniper. Thanks Torch Quote
Basketbill Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Reid wanted to go home, he was losing passion In fact he sat out a year after he played with the Ichabods. Have to give him credit he picks interesting school mascots! Quote
Box and Won Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 That clip of Justin Love playing in Odessa a couple of years ago is one of my all-time favorites. Quote
Pistol Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 That clip of Justin Love playing in Odessa a couple of years ago is one of my all-time favorites. +1. Complete insanity. Should have gone viral, or at least made Deadspin. The shirtless Odessa fan is forever imprinted in my brain. Quote
Pistol Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 By the way, I can't find that video. The words "justin" and "love" in a YouTube search, even with other more specific words, bring up almost exclusively Justin Bieber bull****. Quote
JMM28 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Shirtless guy makes his appearance at 2:08. Quote
b.hayes Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Shirtless guy makes his appearance at 2:08. Hahahah that's awesome Quote
brianstl Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 The Shark fans are awesome. Gotta to love the way the cheerleaders are dressed like hookers and how they act when the other team was at the line. Quote
West Pine Jim Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Never fails to amaze and delight. Quote
cheeseman Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 We could sure use a shooter like Love now. Quote
Box and Won Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Shark mascot gets reprimanded at 1:15. Quote
maverick Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Shark mascot gets reprimanded at 1:15. torch -- Thanks for the updates! Much appreciated. That shark mascot interaction is almost as funny to me as the shirtless guy. Together it's 3 minutes of amazing viewing. Just made my Friday. Quote
cgeldmacher Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 The shirtless guy was outstanding, but the best part was the shark mascot being removed from under the basket by the refs. Quote
jp18 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 The shirtless guy was outstanding, but the best part was the shark mascot being removed from under the basket by the refs. I also noticed at that point that a cheerleader looked to be yelling at someone - maybe an opposing player or the ref. I also enjoyed that moment in this classic video. Quote
Box and Won Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 torch -- Thanks for the updates! Much appreciated. That shark mascot interaction is almost as funny to me as the shirtless guy. Together it's 3 minutes of amazing viewing. Just made my Friday. I agree. The expression on the shark's face just amplifies the hilarity. Quote
ACE Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 I think the ref told the shark to keep his fins to himself. Quote
Pistol Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 I had forgotten about the shark. You're right, Box, his face is perfect. Or the cheerleader outfits that appear to have been left over from BASEketball. Honestly, this makes me want to visit the Ukraine and take in some basketball games. It seems like fun on so many levels. Quote
brianstl Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 So much great stuff in that video. It actually sounds like there is 20,000 people in there when Love hits that shot. Quote
White Pelican Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Was that Bo Bo that went after the shark? Quote
Quality Is Job 1 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 I thought that the issue with the spirit-team members (not just the mascot) was that they were in contact with the standard while the opposing team's player was shooting free throws. I'm sure some "vibration" that might make a free throw miss would result in a technical foul. Quote
