Quoner

I figure he'll sit on the UNLV side first and try to play it cool. Probably take his shades and peep a few beefers on the sly while the teams get going. Once he starts seeing us bring the wood and starts to feel our bad boy vibe, he'll ask to share my crown flask or maybe some road G&Ts I'll make earlier that day with my trunk liquor. After that, it's time to take things full throttle, so I'll pull out the habanero chile lime oysters that will have been stashed in the pullout crotch section of my jeans and start warming them up on a foreman we sneak in with a generator. Once he has a taste of those and the house made waffle chips we made the night before, he'll be ready to eat Quoner's Quicked Up Oyster Nachos Bell Grande off a flipflop. From there, we'll probably just throw back all the food and drinks, then be ready to hit that Hindu buffett near Fair Park and show them how to keep the Christ in the week after Christmas. We're talking Seger on a boom box (Night Moves as the opener), a few hot babes and dancers we get to show up and party and the works. Really show those guys how America parties in the New Year. I figure we'll have plenty of safe houses nearby if things get carnal and might even make a few friends. I'm a pretty run of the mill white guy, but I'm known to show mad respect to my soul brothas from another motha. Kinda cool - you guys in or do you plan to just sort of go all Doug Carlson on this one?

The lack of a movement to bring Guy Fieri to this game is infuriating and, frankly, another missed opportunity by both our fan base and the wizards at da cole myned on Bonnie Braised. WAKE UP, AD!!! Power moves just don't happen....unless you're me or CBL maybe. Just some guy humor...or is it Guy humor... RIP Peanut.

Phew - couldn't keep up with two box scores.

Yet you feel younger to me. Honestly, if I hadn't met you both, I'd flip the ages in my head.

So, for a realistic summary...you hate what free agency has done to baseball and salaries, but you're pissed we didn't keep the expensive free agents at high salaries?

Why does time advance? Why do players get old? Why didn't Curt Flood just jump into traffic? Why must we be able to measure declines and player value better than ever before? What is WAR? Where is Captain Sorensen? Why are prospects so uncertain? Why do guys who can't win with one roster fit better with well constructed teams? What is Moneyball? Can I have a Moneyball? Who does Billy Beane think he is? What does Peter Gammons know? What in the heck is a Baseball Prospectus? Why should I care? Who am I? Is it cold? Global Warming, amirite? When did gum get so soft? Will having a competitive team with no guarantees and flexibility be worth it if we never win? Do I have a corresponding idea for a move? No, but I hate everything I see.

The 8th place team has an RPI of 198.

Suck it, Pascal's Wager.

This would make me incredibly happy personally, but why would they skip their MWC tie-in?

RIP winning steak.

Yay - boastful, good time RV is everyone's favorite. Best damn staffs and sideclaps shall rain from the heavens and god shall wipe the tears from our eyes.

HAHAHA...you just lost a crisp, lilly white $25 JD. Suck it and bring back Nolan!

I thought stuff like that was just part of being a fan and part of getting under the other team's skin? Swear I read that somewhere...

Someone get me Rudy's DVR, because it's time to curl up with a few episodes of Burn Notice. BOOM!

The third quarter decision was jaw-dropping to me. We had them on the ropes and gassed on a pretty good drive, then sat on the last 30 seconds only to move down to their end of the stadium. Now, there is no guarantee if we go up and run the play in the third we score, but instead, we flipped sides, let them catch their breath and adjust and then farted and fell our way to a FG at the 13:35 mark of the fourth quarter. Even if we got stuffed and ran another play with the same result after the quarter change, we have another 40 seconds or so at the end. I know this is all extra-reinforced with hindsight, but we were scratching our heads in the stands for sure.

I've never seen a combined 14 people debate something with such fervor for two weeks ever. Everyone involved is doing a really good job!

Oh, Kram. This is a message board. If you have to try at any of it, you're already doing it wrong. Don't worry, I'll sweep in and out like a gentle lover, but you'll be the king of empty, alienating content forever. GOT YER GOAT!

Is Kinsler going to cut into Mitchell's playing time in Detroit? I noticed he didn't even show up once in the box score.

"The member Cerebus cannot receive any new messages"

You know what I'm digging?

Pssh. I sounded more like you than you.

I've tried to make a request to the powers that be, but a certain evil moderator who loves antagonizing UTSA no longer takes PMs.

No "agenda" hear - just don't watch the "pro" game that much and was curious because I was genuinely surprised to see Tony not on the "court." Leave it to the "usual suspects" to turn this into something I clearly didn't mean. Wishing nothing but the best for Tony and our boys on the court this year!!!11
