    I didn't have any issues on my Samsung TV.

    Star Wars Expanded Universe Thread

    I definitely don't get where that's coming from. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Most of it had that "adventure of the week" feel that the show consistently thrives with, and the final scene was outstanding, IMO. I got goosebumps.

    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    I've never heard about it, either, and I'd be a little leery of it (without looking into it more closely) unless you're getting the meat on right away after doing that (food temp safety).

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    Bluder's an outstanding coach. Mulkey's one of the best of all time, but let's not pretend that her teams don't consistently have more talent than almost anyone across the board.

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    Heard about it, sure. But I think it still would have been seen as more acceptable/palatable if it happened in a men's game, especially if the targeted SDSU player had multiple viral moments for trash talk/gestures in the tournament. More people would chalk it up to that player getting a dose of...

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    Neither she nor I stated otherwise. She was asked about the double standard for MBB players' on-court behavior vs. WBB players, and she said they should all be allowed to trash talk and what not, just like MBB are allowed to do.

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    Literally nowhere did I say otherwise. LSU was deeper and therefore had an easier time dealing with foul trouble to their best players than Iowa had.

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    You can keep propping up that straw man all you want. I was contending with the idea that only Iowa fans thought it sucked, and that they only thought it sucked because Iowa lost. Regardless of the ****** way that some Iowa fans responded to it, they were far from alone in dogging the officiating.

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    Clark was on Outside the Lines today and said the WH trip should be for LSU only. Also said she thinks all players should be able to trash talk/express themselves, as that's part of the fun of the game.

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    If it was a standing invite or something, maybe. But I'll be surprised if they accept when doing so would force LSU share the stage.

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    If you really want to argue semantics, you go right ahead. But you'd be hard pressed to find many people who thought that was anything close to a well-officiated game.

    What do you think of Caitlin Clark?

    The way the rule is written is a little odd (delaying a throw-in by huddling is considered a different type of delay, but not passing to an official during a dead ball situation is lumped in with tapping the ball away from the opponent after a made basket to slow them down), but it's definitely...

    Dr. Jill has invited Hawkeye Women to the White House

    This. I will say that inviting Iowa to attend *alongside* LSU is especially dumb (let them have their own moment; they don't need to share it), but other than that, I couldn't care less who gets invited. I imagine Iowa will respectfully decline, anyway, but if the WH really wants to invite them...

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    I never said it was a unanimous "the officials are screwing Iowa" chorus. I said it was a near unanimous belief that the officials inserted themselves and negatively impacted the game. There's a big, big difference between those two statements. Even with Iowa fans' bias, they still thought the...

    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    Yeah, starch will help the skin crisp up on any cut of chicken, especially if you're cooking at higher temps. Not sure how much of a difference starching would make at lower/BBQ temps, though. That's on my to-do list to try out this spring.

    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    This is my go-to. I've never actually followed the recipe strictly, since it's intended to be more of a main course and I'm only looking for a side dish. I just skip the sausage and follow everything else (I'll sometimes play around with tossing in different peppers). Best recommendation on...

    And the ones who did that are pieces of ****. But that has nothing to do with the point I was making.

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    Sabrina Ionescu, Elena Delle Donne, noted Iowa fans who weren't watching WBB before last weekend. I'm not arguing that there aren't plenty of Iowa fans out there saying the refs were the reason for the loss. There are morons who make that argument in every fanbase, including this one. But...

    Someone say the silent part out loud for me

    It's not like Iowa fans were the only ones upset about the officiating last night. There's almost never anything even resembling unanimous support of any idea in sports, but virtually everyone was talking about how the officiating was ruining the game last night, from fans of both schools, the...

    I'm not sure there are words to describe the level of "yikes" there.
