Bills By 40 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I remember that game at the Family Arena vs. Umass... At halftime I played one-on-one with the Billiken on the court and won a bike. I was only 10 years old. That was one hell of an experience.

Bills By 40 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 And '13-'14 schedule>>'05-'06 schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kshoe Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Plug in current pomelroy rankings into both listed schedules. Im not saying play the 05/06 teams this season. Im saying play those 05/06 school's current 13/14 teams. That being said, those 12 games would be played against the same team and be of equal quality. I lean towards 05/06 schedule. Iowa: 11 UNC: 20 Gonzaga: 32 X: 47 X: 47 St Joes: 64 Ole Miss: 80 Hawaii: 131 or Wichita St: 8 Wisconsin: 12 VCU: 23 VCU: 23 Vandy: 94 Ind St: 97 George Mason: 130 Gearge Mason: 130 I see what you are saying now. Seems like a toss up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills By 40 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I remember that! Seriously? Haha, I was a baller. And by baller, I mean I was so bad the Billiken had to pick me up and help me make the layup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Pelican Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I don't remember your specific case, but I do remember that Big Shark Bicycle (I think) gave a bike to a kid at each game back then. They had to beat the Billiken at one on one. No player ever went home without a bike. Except maybe the Billiken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmith19 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I remember that game at the Family Arena vs. Umass... At halftime I played one-on-one with the Billiken on the court and won a bike. I was only 10 years old. That was one hell of an experience. That's awesome. My dad and I played in a 2-on-2 during halftime at a Swarm game there a few years earlier. I think all we got were t-shirts and tickets to the next game for winning. Those Swarm games were awesome, though--Claggett, Julian Winfield, Doug Smith, and Derek Grimm all on one roster. We were also two of about 20 spectators at an exhibition game between the Swarm and the Eagles at the Vashon High gym, with Claggett and Highmark playing against each other.

Bills By 40 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I still have the bike today! Flat tire has kept me from riding it for about a year, but luckily they gave a ten year old an adult sized bike. Nice little mountain bike, still top ten for coolest experiences of my life. Tops my trip to Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billiken Rich Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I still have the Specialized Vegas jumping bike that my now 15 year old "won" by hitting a shot with a lot of help from the now missing male cheerleaders. He never really did ride the bloody thing. We go mostly long distances and it's one speed. My youngest is more the reckless daredevil bike jumping sort of kid so hopefully he'll make use of it....
