    MONDAY MUSINGS: Don't get too down on Deonte

    Excellent article. ISU absolutely needs Burton, but he has to get smarter. Thing is to me, even in his great games I've thought he's taken bad shots - but he was hot and made them. I think back to Nader last year. Started out as hero ball. I'll never forget the Cinci game. When Niang...

    12/30 Big 12 Games

    KU has two things this year. A phenomenal backcourt and Bill Self. In the head to head v BU Motley will eat that frontcourt alive if he has an average game. Over the course of an 18 game season Self may well pull it out with the inbounds points he manufactures and his perfectly timed and...

    He kinda has a Spock thing going on there. When I was a kid my dad cut my hair and he shaved it on the sides and left it a little longer on the top - combed straight forward with bangs. He called it "The Caesar"... In Jr High he tried to talk me into wearing a flat top... As my hair grew out...

    This is a fair point, although I don't know about key to the season. If you watched the KU/TCU game, Self drew up inbounds plays that netted AT LEAST 6 points. They won by 6. Those are "stolen" points. Hoiberg was a master at those - and given all the close games we won over his five years I...

    *** Official Texas Tech VS IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I enjoyed that immensely. It read very similar to some ISU game threads....

    Slow down buddy. That was just my opinion based on my accountant's expert eye test. I'm quite aware of the KU and Bill Self history. But in watching both teams, IMO BU is better. Last night's results bear that out - and yes, I know it was one game. BU 76 OU 50 KU 86 TCU 80 KU may have the...

    12/30 Big 12 Games

    I'll be shocked if they don't. And by the way, if Prohm can continue landing the kind of players he has been, in a couple of years ISU will look a lot like this years Baylor.

    I get it. And after re-reading my thread I came off as pretty superior. Didn't mean to. But like I said before, I know what I like. Much of it is pretty low brow but I don't care. Makes me laugh. A little anecdote - a few years back I was trying online dating. Yes - at my age. I dated an ISU...

    Hahaha!!! I wasn't making a judgement nor belying my musical tastes. Simply making an observation. It amuses me when something that has been so successful suddenly becomes fashionable to disdain. People like what they like. Of course it's subjective. It's just my observation when the opinion...

    This reminds me of when hating Nickleback became a fashionable thing.

    After The Family Leaves

    Ha! So true! My daughter is 29 and she and her mother have this departure hug routine that reminds me of ISU basketball players routines during lineup announcements. It is hilarious.

    After The Family Leaves

    I absolutely get what you're saying, except that I strongly doubt the grandparents are actually working against you. Maybe it's my perspective and I largely stay out of how my grandkids are being raised, but in retrospect, both sets of grandparents gave us some pretty good advice along the way...

    After The Family Leaves

    I don't mean to be disrespectful, and maybe I'm misinterpreting your post. But that reads to me that your root issue is you want to look better to your kids than the grandparents. Believe me, Christmas and birthdays are two days a year. The kids might not use a calculator to tally it up, but...
