Did Anyone See the Scumbag Tactics Texas Used in a Women's SB Game

Long story short, apparently there is a time limit in women's softball. UT and Kentucky went to extra innings tied 4-4. Kentucky scored 3 in the top of the eighth to take a 7-4 lead.

Instead of playing the game out, the UT coach pulled a ton of stalling shenanigans (pinch runners taking their time, pitcher changes taking their time, batters requesting eye drops), etc until they could extend the game past the time limit, resulting in a 4-4 tie.

******* UT scum. Good riddance. This coach needs to be roasted.

On That Note: This Much Is True

Hello OTNers,

This time we're exploring True/False.

We are looking for songs with titles and/or lyrics containing the words "True" or "False." Variations of those terms are also allowed to include such things as "Truly," "Truthful," "Untrue," "Falsely," "Falsify" and other words with true or false as their root.

We are NOT allowing "Lie"

Pet insurance

I’ve taken my new pup (black lab - female) to her first vet appointments and they have been promoting Trupanion pet insurance.

It sounds like they only cover medically necessary care and non pre-existing conditions.

The vet told me that the minimum charge for an emergency clinic surgery is $3000.

I plan to send her to puppy gun dog and hunting boot camp with the goal of getting into field trials and hunting dog contests.

Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Next Up: Scheman Renovation


The next step in facility upgrades...

Actions Requested:

Recommend the Board approve the proposed:
Permission to Proceed with Project Planning for the Scheman Building - Renovation project, including the design professional selection process. The estimated project budget of $10,000,000 to $12,000,000 would be funded by Athletics Operating Revenues.

Executive Summary:
The project would renovate portions of the Scheman Building’s ground and first floors, including the entrance lobby, event and circulation spaces, and restrooms. The Benton Auditorium at the east end would be converted into flexible event space. The project would also include upgrades to building entrances, interior finishes, lighting, wayfinding through the building, and new food and beverage amenities for guests.

The exterior elevated walkway between the Scheman Building and Hilton Coliseum, and various building systems would be evaluated during the design process. If repairs are required, those renovations would be included in the project, if funding allows. No existing occupants would be relocated because of the project.

Lipsey vs Hunter

Hopefully some of you will find this interesting. For several years now a group of friends and I have done a Big 12 fantasy basketball pool. Only conference games count. I found the point scoring online somewhere. This is what we use. Points = 1, Rebounds = 1.2, Assists = 1.5, Steals = 2, Blocks = 2, Turnovers = -1. I have a spreadsheet that totals up the fantasy points for each player based on the stat line from each game. There are 7 of us in the pool and we pick 8 players in a standard snake style draft. This year I had the first pick (not really where you want to be). I took Hunter with my 2nd pick at 14 based on his good non-conference numbers. I also drafted Lipsey at 43. Through 12 games Lipsey has 281.2 fantasy points and Hunter has 182.2. I feel like I made a poor pick! I imagine Texas feels worse!

If anyone wants more information on how to run one of these or wants the blank spreadsheet I would be more than happy to share it. When we started this we only did 6 players and you had to have 3 G and 3 F/C. We evolved to add 2 bench players in case of injury, suspension, etc. and eventually scrapped the position requirements as well.

Below I added in the league roster and how each player has scored. The number in parentheses under PLAYER is where they were picked in the draft. You'll notice we all missed drafting Kalscheur. Not sure how that happened.

History's Greatest of All Time - G.O.A.T.

Not sure if anyone else is checking out this new series on History Channel hosted by Peyton Manning. Thought it'd be a colorful topic for discussion.

Episode 1: Stadium Smackdown - the greatest stadiums and arenas of all time.

1. Yankee Stadium (New York, NY)
2. The Collisseum (Rome)
3. Madison Square Garden (New York, NY)
4. Fenway Park (Boston, MA)
5. LA Memorial Coliseum (Los Angeles, CA)
6. Wembley Stadium (London)
7. Comiskey Park (Chicago, IL)
8. Wimbledon (London)
9. The Astrodome (Houston, TX)
10. The Superdome (New Orleans, LA)

My kneejerk is there are easily a few "misses" here. Yankee Stadium at #1 is silly IMO. Sure there's a lot of history but as a venue it's pretty blah. I'd think Wrigley deserves a spot ahead of that and ahead of Comiskey. Three of the top four being East Coast is typical bias. And four baseball stadiums but not a single dedicated European football stadium? Old Trafford should be on this list somewhere.

Palestine Ohio

I do not see a thread talking about this. Probably the biggest ecological disaster since the BP oil spill. Were currently burning off 5 tankers of Vinyl Chloride and other hazardous chemicals but its already in the Ohio river killing fish and its getting no national media attention. Vinyl Chloride I believe is a deadly chemical and it easily bonds with water molecules.
