I was going to make a joke about how none of those kids are big enough to play D1 college ball, but then I realized they are bigger than KU’s team.

At least your coach is still bigger. Even with his Hov-a-round.
November 7th, 2012 at 7:01 PM
That was indeed an amazing snag. Puts Tyree to shame
Also like the other player who had the presence of mind to take the ball into the end zone.

A bit off-topic, but here’s an election day issue that escaped discussion today on these boards: what’s the chance the Senate will approve Puerto Rico as the 51st state?
I imagine flagmakers around the country will be clamoring for it!
November 7th, 2012 at 8:13 PM
I’m sure the Republicans will be in full on filibuster mode to stop that from happening. The last thing the Republicans need at this point is to add more electoral votes for Hispanic populations.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:19 PM
I’m sure the Republicans will be in full on filibuster mode to stop that from happening.
I’m not much on political talk/knowledge so I could be completely off base, but I’d heard Puerto Rico had no desire in becoming a state.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:23 PM
They passed a pro-statehood referendum last night, Meth.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:24 PM
Watching the Sixers-Hornets game, and the N.O. Arena has to be two-thirds to three-quarters empty.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:24 PM
They passed a pro-statehood referendum last night, Meth.
Is that a recent change of heart? Or am I thinking of a different U.S. Territory? Or am I just completely fucking wrong? I swear I’d heard they had no desire. But as I said, my political savvy is…not very savvy.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:27 PM
I think for a long time, statehood was not a popular view there. But 54 percent voted pro-statehood yesterday. Now it’s up to the Senate.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:29 PM
Read somewhere today that every U.S. territory that has ever petitioned for statehood has been accepted. But it hasn’t happened since 1959, and the political atmosphere is a lot different these days.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:29 PM
I think for a long time, statehood was not a popular view there. But 54 percent voted pro-statehood yesterday.
So I would’ve been correct a few years ago? I’ll take a victory anyway I can get it.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:38 PM
I was watching the election coverage for a few hours yesterday before it really started. And it was boring the shit out of me. So I fell asleep at about 7:30 PM and woke up at 2 AM this morning. Been up ever since. Feel like a fucking zombie. Come to think of it, I could’ve just changed the channel. But I didn’t.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:51 PM
I did not watch a second of election coverage last night. Got tanked up on Dogfish pumpkin ale (finally found some!) and bourbon, ate a steak, watched some early Kurosawa and went to sleep early.
Walked into work this morning, someone asked me who won the election, and I said, “Don’t know, don’t care, won’t make any difference.” I was feeling cynical and maybe a little hungover.
November 7th, 2012 at 8:56 PM
Apparently, TBLAD the day after Election Day is the loneliest night of the year.

Two completely under-appreciated attributes.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:03 PM
I’m not having a lonely night. Because my fuck-head brother pulled a fuck-head brother and just randomly showed up. It’s not as if he lives down the street and randomly popped in for a beer. He lives 7 hours away, which means he’s randomly showing up for a week. I love my brother to death, and we get along great. But what’s up with some fucking notice, bro? Seriously going to call me an hour before you get here and say I’m almost there? What the fuck were you doing the other 6 hours you were on the road?
November 7th, 2012 at 9:04 PM

Yep. You’d have been correct in not that many years ago. Not sure why they flipped. Perhaps mandatory Death Panels.
/That was a joke. We can joke around again right.
//Wonders how Nate Silver had that vote pegged.
///Does not actually wonder that.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:05 PM
It especially wasn’t lonely in here earlier. Those new people starting training Monday I think, so they were here. I had to listed to their fucking song from across the building about 8 times. Just kill me now.

You know, for as much bitching and moaning about polls and whatnot, today has been pretty civil everywhere on the internet. There is some spite, but all in all everything is back to normal.

Read an article on ESPN about Noah (not going to try his first name) getting bitched at for taking a 3 pointer trying to win the fans a Big Mac. Guess the Bulls have a promotion where if they score 100 pts in a home win everyone gets a Big Mac. Judging just through quotes, he seemed legitimately upset that he didn’t win the fans a Big Mac. He’s tried 5 3 pointers since entering the league in 2007. Made? 0.

Yep. Glad that was over early last night.

monster, it’s an indie flick, and gritty and vicious. guy moves to LA from wisconsin to live with his best friend, and they like to do crazy shit like build weapons and blow shit up, all because they love mad max. then a girl enters the picture, she’s bad/crazy and causes mucho problems, many of which are solved with violence.
great homebuilt muscle car with nitro, drinking, fighting at parties. the badger is such a gadget guy he fixes up a different car with a whiskey tapper. you pressurize the system with one of the a/c switches
must see flick

if you learn of my death in the next few days, here’s why:
big macs are buy one get one for a limited time. they may be horrible for you, and near the bottom of the food snob world, but i fucking love them
taking them apart and arranging everything, bc the wonderful sauce and pickles are usually off to one side.
i will find them, and i will kill them

I can’t watch that here. Saw what it was about, though. Season opens back up Friday. Funny (not to her) story. Chick at works niece got her license. It was the first time she could drive by herself. Mother lent her the van. Smashed into a big ass 7-point. Totaled the van. Only liability insurance. No more driving.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:28 PM

Sort of, she told the cop she didn’t want it since they don’t eat venison. So he took it to the drop off site where you can donate a deer to the needy. Whether or not it made it to the drop off site, or whether “drop off site” actually meant his freezer is yet to be determined. Either way it didn’t go to waste. Although that fucking hood sure did.
/SMASH!!!!!!!!

I wouldn’t doubt it. That article said players who have pretty much carried them to victory but miss a free throw and only get the team to 99 get booed pretty heavily.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:37 PM
Hope that was after the game. If you did that before, it’s a wonder you made it until halftime with crapping the pressbox.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:38 PM
“without crapping the pressbox”
November 7th, 2012 at 9:38 PM

The Jazz also had a promo in which they’d park a car at halfcourt in the Super Dome and if, from the stands, you could float a paper airplane into the open window, you’d win the car.
Guy from my high school did it, then wrecked the car driving home the same night.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:42 PM
crapping the pressbox.
no pressbox brotha. 1) i don;t like people and that’s close quarters, and 2) sidelines give a great POV from intensity of action to eavesdropping on players/coaches
bucket list includes sideline viewing of a major cfb or nfl game. from what i saw on HS sidelines, i cannot imagine the scariness of the size/speed
November 7th, 2012 at 9:43 PM
if, from the stands, you could float a paper airplane into the open window, you’d win the car.
Not that it’d matter because I couldn’t do it in a million tries, but are we talking from the nose bleeds or?
November 7th, 2012 at 9:44 PM
ESPN devoted an hourlong show tonight to revealing not the MLB award winners but the finalists for the awards.
Which typifies the reasons I no longer watch ESPN.

what a fuckup
when i covered a class a team, there was a promotion where a few people got keys to cars on the field and if one started a car they won it. i pulled a string to get a buddy of mine’s wife a key and they ended up winning. it was hard not asking for some kind of something other than thanks

PLSK,
There are nights each week where we’ll get it between 100-150 posts. Sunday night football helps, baseball playoffs helped. There were nights during the summer when we all just dicked around (probably sick of the heat) and got over 100.
November 7th, 2012 at 9:46 PM
indoor stadums are where they hold paper plane competitions. longest flight, most time aloft
did they make the plane for you nada?

IIRC, you did it from your seat; you got a piece of paper with your seat number on it, folded it into a plane and let it rip.

ESPN.com also has a headline about Scottie Pippen seeing some of jordan’s game in Obama’s basketball ability. Almost as bad as the pile of shit “column” Bayless wrote about LeBro today. Its amazing that he was once considered a desirable columnist for newspapers. Maybe he just never was that good and thats why he bounced around to several papers

The guy has watched every snap of every game for every BIG 12 game for 20 years and has never missed a tip of “his” San Antonio Spurs. I saw Romanowski on sports center today. Holy fucking shit, I hope they aren’t trying to employ that guy. He’s probably like Terry Tate around there. Guy comes off as such a psycho. He is a walking billboard of why the NFL is so concerned with concussions and head injuries.

The free fries thing reminds me of one of Steve Martin’s great bits from early in his standup career. He was performing at a club for an audience of about 200 people.

November 7th, 2012 at 10:12 PM
(15% ABV).
!!
amazing how if someone offered you a spirit that was 30 proof you’d make fun of them, but a beer with that number is hell on wheels. it’s the carbonation right?
November 7th, 2012 at 10:14 PM
They have this beer I had read about, in fact someone might have linked to it here, that was from Ireland or some shit and had an alcohol content that rivaled strong liquor. I bet that would be like drinking jet fuel.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:15 PM
oh, i thought you had two in mind
there’s a good cheating scene in bellflower. you wonder, if i caught them in the act what would i do? like to think if it was a stranger i’d just be pissed at the gf/wife, because the guy was just being a guy. but if he was a friend, then some chin-checking could be in order
November 7th, 2012 at 10:16 PM
I can get the Colts at -3 tomorrow night. Sounds extremely appetizing if you don’t think about how bad the Colts are on the road. But for whatever reason, that Jags team can’t play at home in front of their 10 fans for shit.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:17 PM
you wonder, if i caught them in the act what would i do?
I know where they live. I know who they’re fucking…………We could kill…everyone!

go listen to let’s get small or wild and crazy guy
Or read Cruel Shoes.
seiously tho….great comedian, been a good/great actor, world class banjo player, director, and a book writer (not sure how good, tho i’m no reliable judge)
probably wrote screenplays too

An excerpt from Steve Martin’s Cruel Shoes:
Grandpa died and was resurrected after three days, but no one called him the Son of God; they just said, “Hey, that’s Gramps!”
November 7th, 2012 at 10:18 PM
that Jags team can’t play at home in front of their 10 fans for shit.
No but they did beat the Colts already this year.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:19 PM
Speaking of that. There’s a show starting next week on A&E or something called Moonshiners that looks rather interesting.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:19 PM
world class banjo player
Never would have guessed.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:20 PM
what about o/u plsk? i do well with those.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:20 PM
Cecil Shorts. Pride of Mount Union. That was rather flukey.

November 7th, 2012 at 10:21 PM
I thought about turning my cards in early this week so I could put that game on it. I just don’t like taking a chance at knocking one of my cards out of contention on a Thursday unless it’s Texans Bills or 49ers Chiefs etc.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:21 PM
moonshiners looks like heaven for fans of southern trash dialect. have we all tasted everclear here?
have drunk it straight on a couple occasions. not easy. first time me and a buddy followed the tasting with snowmobile rides that ended with falling off the sleds and laughing
November 7th, 2012 at 10:23 PM
have we all tasted everclear here?
Not straight. Don’t ask how he came up with this concoction, but a buddy of mine mixed that, mountain dew, and a gram of weed soaked in for a night. That shit was surprisingly drinkable, and not surprisingly I remembered very little after that.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:23 PM
Too bad soused isn’t here, he probably has a case of it in his desk at work.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:23 PM
i’d say indy m3 plsk just because they have talent (luck, wayne, freeney) and confidence if nothing else. if mjd is still out, i’d go under too
November 7th, 2012 at 10:24 PM

Banjo-pickin’ used to be part of his standup act. But he’s serious about it and performs on the bluegrass circuit. Caught him at Jazz Fest a couple of years ago; he was awesome.
Of course, there were a couple of rubes behind us who kept complaining, “Why’s he playing that damn banjo? When’s he gonna do some jokes?”
November 7th, 2012 at 10:26 PM
freeney? who’s the other pass rusher? they both aren’t still playing i’m pretty sure
November 7th, 2012 at 10:27 PM
I lived in West Virginia for a while, Vez, and I have deinitely tasted true mountain dew.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:29 PM
Vez, this is the second time in two seasons I’m telling people to take the Colts. But this time I’m serious.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:29 PM
Caught him at Jazz Fest a couple of years ago; he was awesome.
I’ll have to look some stuff up sometime. I think Jmac got a job with MSN. Just checked my mail, and when I signed out it went to the MSN homepage. It had that shirtless picture of Tebow with the headline, “Is Tebow too buff to play in the NFL?”
November 7th, 2012 at 10:29 PM
I have a nice brand on my right arm that myself and 3 of my best high school buddies did to each other boozing on moonshine our junior year of high school. The good old days.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:29 PM
do they even bother to make it tasty, nada?
November 7th, 2012 at 10:32 PM
You’re from central Illinois correct? Ever been up to Antioch. My family lives up there. We have done some stupid shit on sleds coming out of Stietz’s bar up there. The chain o lakes used to be the most dangerous body of fresh water in the United States. I’m happy to say they are all still alive with a ton of close calls.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:33 PM
makes me want to listen to Copperhead Road.
you hardly ever saw granddaddy down here, he only went to town about twice a year.
he’d buy 100 pounds of yeast and some copper line, everybody said that he made moonshine.
well the revenue man wanted grandaddy bad, headed up the holler with everything he had, before my time but i been told, you never come back from copperhead road
November 7th, 2012 at 10:33 PM
Bill walton is back! He’s going to be in the commentary role on west coast college basketball games for ESPN. YES!
November 7th, 2012 at 10:34 PM
“The Smokers,” in its entirety, from Steve Martin’s Cruel Shoes:
He lit the cigarette and smoked it down to the filter in one breath. He silently thanked the cigarette company for being thoughtful enough about his health to include a filter to protect him.
So he lit up another. This time he didn’t exhale the squeaky-clean filtered smoke, but just let it nestle in his lungs, filing his body with that good menthol flavor.
Some more smokers knocked on his door and they came in and all started smoking along with him.
“How wonderful it is that we’re all smoking,” he thought.
Everyone smoked and smoked and after they smoked they all talked about smoking and how nice it was that they were all smokers and then they smoked some more.
Smoke, smoke, smoke. They all sang “Smoke That Cigarette” and “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.”
Then the smokers smoked one more cigarette and left him alone in his easy chair, about to relax and enjoy a nice quiet smoke.
And then his lips fell off.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:34 PM
The chain o lakes used to be the most dangerous body of fresh water in the United States.
How so?

no, mrej is from central. i’m in western suburbs of chicago. i know antioch well, as my father in law lives there and my wife graduated from ahs. what year, plsk? if you say early 90s, i’ll share my wife’s first name
he just died last weekend so we are headed up there this weekend for the visitation/funeral/fammily reunion
November 7th, 2012 at 10:37 PM
And then his lips fell off.
That was funny as hell. What is that book a bunch of short stories like that or is it an actual book? I might have to read that.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:37 PM
i don’t share links of my stuff too much anymore but i did a story once on drink boating on the chain o lakes. it is and it isn’t like road DUI
November 7th, 2012 at 10:38 PM
That’s a great album, but man, time has not been kind to Steve Earle corporally.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:39 PM
only no wake zones are through the channels and it is an absolutely huge body of water than connects many of different lakes. In their prime there were almost 200 bars on these lakes (think they’re down to 40 now or something) Just got dangerous and people up there are absolute fucking idiots. Go fast everywhere. Lotta boats in the winter, tons of sleds in the winter. Just gets really stupid, still.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:39 PM

you misspelled chemicals
November 7th, 2012 at 10:41 PM
here’s that drunk boating story
November 7th, 2012 at 10:42 PM
Collection of short — very short — stories, often very funny and sometimes just flat-out odd.
Somewhat reminiscent of Woody Allen’s stuff like Without Feathers and Side Effects, which are some of the funniest things I’ve ever read.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:42 PM
Well, they’re originally from Carol Stream and had a lake house in Antioch. Around mid 90′s they moved up to Antioch full time (financial issues, yadda yadda, long fucking story) So they all live up there now on Fox Lake. Crazy motherfuckers, Jerry Springer type shit. There’s a reason I make it out there once a year and can’t wait to get my ass home after 48 hours. Fun people, though.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:44 PM
Now that i think about it Vez, somehow this came up years back and remember you linking that. Interesting. I can never remember what kind of nonsense I bring up over here.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:45 PM
And I actually misspelled “corporeally.”
November 7th, 2012 at 10:46 PM
i’m near carol stream. glenbard north football, wrestling and baseball were part of my beat for nine years in the 90s. probably know some of the same folks
November 7th, 2012 at 10:50 PM
Most of my cousins went to West Chicago.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:51 PM
Weird, You probably do. I’ll drop the last name over on twitter sometime. My older cousin was a pretty good baseball player in the area for a while. This small world shit….crazy.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:51 PM
Speaking of Illinois, I have never been there
November 7th, 2012 at 10:52 PM
Another Steve Martin golden oldie: go to YouTube and find the video for the SNL debut of “King Tut.” Hilarious.
Ah, hell, here it is, unfortunately with the intro cut off.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:53 PM
Don’t speak ill of Illinois.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:55 PM
Speaking of Illinois, I have never been there
My Dad kept trying to get me to go visit him when he was stationed out there. It didn’t end up happening. He was only stationed there like 8 months. Seemed like about the same time he got settled in he packed the fuck up.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:57 PM
My parents keep their boat in Fox Lake right next to Antioch too.
vez, are you watching Bears games at that theater in Wheaton? How is that experience (i notice it’s free to get in on their web site)?
November 7th, 2012 at 10:58 PM
Speaking of Illinois, I think 80% of this country annunciates it Ill-inoise. That bothers me.
November 7th, 2012 at 10:58 PM
Cap’n Crunch before bed?
YES!
November 7th, 2012 at 10:59 PM
I can provide anyone visiting IL for the first time with a gracious female host to take you to the hottest spots in the country.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:01 PM
Rollo pimping out his SIL..
November 7th, 2012 at 11:01 PM
with a gracious female host
No thanks on the SIL
November 7th, 2012 at 11:02 PM
I think 80% of this country annunciates it Ill-inoise. That bothers me.
So how’s it pronounced?
November 7th, 2012 at 11:02 PM
Here’s my thing with Cap n Crunch. It’s the only cereal that I need to let get soggy to enjoy it. That shit will wreck the roof of your mouth. The cap n crunch milk at the end is fantastic, though
I told you I was a fucking moron for betting the NBA tonight.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:03 PM
You mean ill-inoise as in that’s a loud noise?
November 7th, 2012 at 11:03 PM
The S at the end is silent.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:03 PM
Shoulda said, “It an-NOISE me.”
November 7th, 2012 at 11:04 PM
It’s the only cereal that I need to let get soggy to enjoy it. That shit will wreck the roof of your mouth. The cap n crunch milk at the end is fantastic, though
Cookie Crisp milk will destroy ALL other left over cereal milks.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:05 PM
Not going to lie I pronounced it noise till my Dad moved out there, then he said, “Stop that.”
November 7th, 2012 at 11:05 PM
The right Bayless stayed in Chicago.

But don’t ever fuckin’ say LOO-zee-anna.
Lazy-ana?
November 7th, 2012 at 11:09 PM
I disagree, cookie crisp is a good cereal milk but I think Cocoa puffs is the best cereal milk ever.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:09 PM
rollo, going fr the snf game vs texans. please join us
November 7th, 2012 at 11:09 PM
Oops. Extra “L”. Should be LEWUH-vuhlle.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:10 PM
I hear they really frown upon the Naw’lins down there as well.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:10 PM
That’s pretty accurate, actually.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:13 PM
It’s spelled that way, but the true pronunciation is more like “Ny’all-uns.”
November 7th, 2012 at 11:15 PM
gracious female host
gracious like an injured wolverine in heat?
November 7th, 2012 at 11:16 PM
Lol that the announced attendance for Sixers-Hornets tonight was 12,998. I think there are more people at TBLAD than were at that game.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:17 PM
rollo, went with a few friends to see the dallas mnf game. was really cool. free admission, great selection of beer, good food, and the size of the screen can’t be beat. plus, unlike in a bar, you can hear the commentary
November 7th, 2012 at 11:17 PM
“Take it away, Dandy Don.”
“Turn out the lights, the party’s over …”
‘Night, all.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:18 PM

November 7th, 2012 at 11:20 PM
Now who might this be? I’ll be passing through Chicago on the way to Madison next Friday heading to the Buckeye game.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:21 PM
plsk, did you miss the whole saga on rollo’s sister in law?
someone else, please encapsulate
November 7th, 2012 at 11:22 PM
Now who might this be?
You’d be wise to let your curiosity stop there. She’ll follow you home.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:23 PM
She’ll finish your sentences, even though you didn’t even start them.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:24 PM
she’ll put a period where a question mark should be
November 7th, 2012 at 11:25 PM
absolutely I did. I’m curious. If someone wants to give me the reader’s digest version. I have nothing but a jack and pepsi and some shitty basketball to entertain my lame ass.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:27 PM
ok, i’ll go
rollo and his wife and newborn had to live with her parents while they sold/bought a house. sister in law lived there and constantly hit on rollo late night when he was up and on PC and wife was sleeping with kid
she also had an asshat boyfriend who was all talk but abusive to her. guns were pulled one night by his FIL bc of the boyfriend
we gave advice. he didn;t follow it, and now they have a beautiful life in the country
November 7th, 2012 at 11:35 PM
Haha. That’s awesome. Sure it was rather frightening at the time seeing your father in law with a firearm in his hands in his own house. If I was that shithead, That’s the point where you sprint out the door and never even think about looking back.
November 7th, 2012 at 11:38 PM
i was not envious of rollo’s situation. it was some good timewasting, and he was famous for a time. morning folks would read the previous night’s tblad and then wish he’d show up during the day to deliver the next episode
November 7th, 2012 at 11:41 PM
there were pics too, of the SIL and the d-bag boyfriend
