HUNTERS on Amazon Prime video

SCyclone
Watched the first two episodes last night. Pretty dark, although involving and creative. It's 1977 and a small (8 or 9) group of people have banded together to find and kill ex-Nazis living in the US.

Al Pacino is the leader of the group. His voice keeps getting hoarser, and the eastern European accent he uses makes it tough to understand him at times.

I don't know that I could binge watch the series - it's tough stuff - but I am definitely in for more.

Ways to help the overwhelmed medical field

FerShizzle
I thought it might be nice to have a place to post links to or examples of ways to help. And I worry that just posting links in the other threads will result in them getting buried due to how fast those threads are moving.

I feel like a lot of people want to help, but are concerned about coming into contact with the virus in the process. Humans are a creative bunch and I’m sure there will be many ideas generated to share.

Nice article about the Purdy Brothers

Their parents have instilled in them that football is not everything. God, sports and who they are outside of football is everything. For the brothers, it is the foundation of who they are.

Their family truly does everything together when it comes to sporting events, dinners and activities like that, which is something the Purdy brothers are truly proud of. Each time either one steps on the field, they show how proud they are to be a Purdy and remember the sacrifices their parents have given them to get to the point where they are today.

Wow...so glad Brock is a Cyclone!

Not sure if anyone has started looking into this with no sports. Sunday NASCAR is going to be doing a race with current and former drivers that will be broadcast on FS1. I think this will be a really cool replacement for some form of sports.

I also find it fascinating from the standpoint that anyone of us could technically participate in it (while lower levels). I’ve been trying to look into what it would take to get started and frankly am finding it overwhelming. Has anyone else looked into iRacing.

MLB: For Cub Fans

enisthemenace
I didn’t see a thread related to this yet, so my apologies if it has already been discussed, but I stumbled on a new channel the other day. Marquee Sports Network (channel 664 on DirecTV. Sorrry...don’t know the option for cord cutters, but do think there is an option on YouTubeTV).

It has been showing classic Cubs games, and it’s awesome. Watched the 1979 23-22 game against the Phillies the other day. Sosa hitting 61 and 62. 2016 NLDS game (Baez homer in the bottom of the 8th to win 1-0; great pitchers dual between Lester and Cueto).

Kerry Wood’s 20 K game is on Friday at 6:00.

It’s awesome for the Cub fans out there (and I know there are a lot on this board).

Ways to help service industry types

Anyone come up with anything to help our friends in the service industry? I have a musician friend who is coming over next weekend to
Perform for my ten person party. He plays guitar and we are all getting beer and chipping in ten to twenty bucks per person to have him play. Anyone have any other ideas?

Kolat new Navy coach

B
I see that Kolat has been announced as the new wrestling coach for the Naval Academy. After reading his coaching bio it got me wondering why he had gotten a shot at a more prominent school? He looks to have paid his dues as an assistant for a number of years. One would think given his wrestling acumen and time served in assistant roles and the HC at Campbell he would be a wanted commodity.

Friday OT #1 - I Had Some Time Alone

Angie
What all is different about your day-to-day routine right now? Are you wearing different clothes (like, I have only changed from one pair of pajama pants to another all week)? Are you working or learning in a different place? Are you doing anything different to remember this COVID-19 outbreak time?

I feel like this is one of those 9/11, JFK assassination, Challenger explosion types of moments - 25 years from now, teachers are going to be having kids ask adults where they were during this time when the whole world is basically stopped. (For most, the answer is, "at home.") I am working from home one week, in office the next, and alternating - but I'm keeping a journal on a Google Doc so that I can give it to my grandkids one day to take to school.

What are you all doing?

ISUCyclones2015
Reddit's /r/CollegeBasketball subreddit is simulating the entire tournament on Collge Hoops 2K8 (2K8 is used so they could create teams that weren't in the game).

They released the bracket and used the regular season champion as the auto-bid then used BracketMatrix to seed them.

Full Bracket here:

Cyclonefanatic is an awesome place. i found it my junior year of college and found it to be the most reliable AND personable source of Cyclone News. I rarely go to parties, but I make a point to go to cyclonefanatic game watches because I am a fan of cyclonefanatic.

The coronavirus sucks. It also is affecting businesses VERY negatively. If you love cyclonefanatic as much as I do, you'll help them out. It's only $3 a month. IT SHOULDN'T TAKE A PANDEMIC TO SUPPORT THE THING THAT WE READ EVERY DAY.
