    Twister Sister Summary - When the going gets tough, we get tougher.

    I'm not criticizing her. She's one of the all-time great Cyclones. I would be stupid to criticize her. All I was asking is if it seems to anyone else as it seems to me, that she is in a weakened state because she even looks more frail, to me, than she did before the injury.

    Twister Sister Summary - When the going gets tough, we get tougher.

    How do you explain her free throw shooting then? Or her lack of assists, or her numerous TOs. Here are the facts; She has nearly as many TOs as assists this year, 26-21. That's for someone who normally has twice as many assists as TOs. She's only averaging 3.7 assists per game. I realize that's...

    Bristow made some huge plays down the stretch as well.

    Twister Sister Summary - When the going gets tough, we get tougher.

    It appears to me Ryan has been off her game since she came back. I attributed it to rust the first few games, but it looks to be more than that. I figured that anyone who has played basketball as long as she has can knock the rust off in a couple of games, but she continues to struggle. So it...

    Friday OT: Snow Day

    When I was a teenager and young adult, I would hop in my old beater of a car and race around the streets of my small hometown, sliding around corners and doing donuts. It was the type of car that was indestructible, made of steel, not aluminum and plastic, and had a three on the tree...

    Commercials that need to be shot into the sun

    I haven't read this whole thread, but the latest commercial to drive me nuts is the one where the rotund woman is singing and dancing joyfully ... about her Type 2 diabetes and the miracle drug she takes to combat it. Like that's something to celebrate. Whoever came up with that ad campaign...

    Raising Canes Sucks

    Vehemently disagree on the Popeye's spicy chicken sandwich. It's the bomb and the best one I've tried of the fast food spicy chicken sandwiches. On Raising Cane's we got one in our town about a year ago, and I still haven't tried it. The town across the river has a Zaxby's that I would want to...

    Info for Jeff Woody - Arkansas St.

    The website for the Red Wolves used to be Go Red Wolves, so when it appeared in the address bar, it appeared as goredwolves. I used to know an Arkansas State grad and boy was he pissed whenever I asked him how the Gored Wolves were doing.

    I'm retired. That's what it's for -- my retirement.

    I took $6K out of the account and spent it.

    Thoughts on the 2023 stock market

    I'm up 18K in my retirement account in just the last few weeks. I even took a $6,000 charge this month and when I next looked at my account a few days later, I was up 4K over where I was when I took the 6K. The account gained over 10K from when I last looked at it to just less than a week later...

    The great Metallica debate

    I have no opinion other than Michael McDonald RUINED the Doobie Brothers.

    The apostrophe

    The one I see a ton is people using breaks when they mean brakes. I hope they don't get them mixed up in real life and break something when they should be hitting the brakes.

    New WR COMMIT

    This guy is big and fast. He's been timed at 10.7 in the 100 meters. That gives us two WRs in this class with sprinter's speed.

    Best (charted and popular) late in career release from a band

    John Fogarty. Old Man Down the Road and Centerfield. He had produced two solo albums after CCR broke up, declining to release one of them, then took a 9-year hiatus before producing Centerfield, the album that contained those two songs.

    Dumbest Reality Show Concepts

    The dumbest one, by far, is the new Bear Grylls show, where contestants have to eat disgusting stuff to ... I don't know ... survive? On a television set? Barmagedon is pretty ridiculous too, but at least they know it.

    Car Issue

    Yeah, I'm going to disagree with this. A bad alternator drains the battery. It does not drain the battery, then fill it back up again or not start the car, then a couple of minutes later start it. It sounds more like an ignition problem.

    Candy Bar Hot Takes

    I like Buns better than Bings. My go to is either Reese's Peanut butter cups, Almond Hershey's, Almond Joy or Butterfinger. I also enjoy an occasional Baby Ruth.
