Fresno State

May as well get this one going.

We should handle Fresno State pretty easily tomorrow night and hand them their first Big 12 dual loss.

There are some interesting matches. Mostly, Gremmel v. Hokit is it's a nice opportunity for Gremmel to beat a similarly ranked guy and hopefully do it by a decent margin to distance himself.

141, 157, 174 are all ranked in the low/mid-20s for Fresno as well. It would be nice to see all our guys go out there, get after it, and go for bonus points. They all need to get some good wins in and pad their NCAA qualifier resumes.

I think I'm most curious to see how the team bounces back from OkSt.

Salon/Barber Etiquette

I have been going to the same stylist for ~2 years. Several months ago, she left for maternity leave and I had 2 haircuts with a substitute at the same salon. The haircuts were drastically better. Their work-stations are adjacent, so it would be unavoidable to see the old stylist every time if I were to make the switch. Would it be poor form to make the switch? Any advice in dealing with this or am I stuck with average haircuts forever so I don't feel bad?

5G Phones

I need to upgrade my 4-yr old iPhone. Is it beneficial to wait for the newer 5G rollout later this year, or are late model phones already 5G compatible?

PS: I live in Houston and there already is some 5G service. Also, I don't buy the latest release model as I prefer to buy either refurbished, or older model phones.

Twister Sister Summary - sorry folks...

I have to admit I didn't watch the game last night. My band was rehearsing getting ready for a gig. But it went about like i thought it would. Baylor focused on Joens and while she didn't score as much she still worked hard and got some things done. Still like how Thurmon is evolving. The biggest downside that I can see is the atrocious free throw shooting. That was just bizarre.

Final note...Baylor is #1 for a reason. They are loaded for bear (pun intended) and are freaking good. The best part? We only play them one more time.

I'll leave you all with a question. This pertains to other conferences as well. Is it a good thing to have one team dominate a league the way Baylor and UConn do? The first 15 years of Fennelly's career here saw several teams battle for conference titles. It was engaging and interesting. But now...its all a battle for second place. What do you think?

@jcyclonee asks: I know it's late for this week's mailbag but can we hear GTO's joke about boning Wonder Woman?
GTO:
Here’s the joke (it’s not that great and NSFW): Censored
Bannedman:
?
Pants: This is offensive and you should be deeply ashamed.
GTO: It is in pretty bad taste and maybe should only be delivered via PM. I never said it was good.
Pants: I’d be more offended if you censored it.
GTO: you want it back?
Pants: Honestly, I’m surprised not everyone knows that one. Feels like it’s been around since I was a kid.

@jcyclonee again: Sorry. I have one more very important question for this week. I guess this one could be for next week. Can you please handicap the Tetris World Championship contenders?
@coolerifyoudid responds: Isn't being socially handicapped enough ?
Bannedman:
no
Pants: Maybe we should have Cooler as a guest at some point?
GTO: I don’t know, but this year’s field is absolutely stacked (pun intended). We have (actual pictures):
