That was a great game. I thought it was interesting that although the game was for the best record in the Big10, it seemed to be more about Wisc's home winning streak vs. ILL's undefeated season. Wisc didn't back down at all, and at one point in the 2nd half I thought they had ILL rattled. ILL...

Yeah, it's on the other side of the world so they are 50 hours ahead of us or something like that. Just one of the four grand slam events, nothing important. It's on ESPN2 when there's nothing on TV except for commercials for Ronco products and Girls Gone Wild videos. Crap, the Aggasi match is...

Federer is the obvious pick on the men's side, he's currently tied for the 4th longest match winning streak ever. I think Agassi will have a chance if they don't close the roof due to the heat. Agassi is from and still lives in Vegas so he should be used to the heat. If he can extend the match...

SI has a different opinion on the worst job. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/writers/roy_johnson/12/04/pass.the.word/

Looks like the NCAA took down the previous article I posted, here's a newer NCAA press release that clarifies things somewhat. http://www2.ncaa.org/media_and_events/association_news/ncaa_news_online/2005/01_17_05/front_page_news/4202n02.html I thought this was interesting since I was...

BKB, What year did you graduate? I was in the same class as Cliff's brother Guy.

I'm pretty sure Texas has problems with the graduation rate of their entire student population. OSU faces similar problems where many students take more than 5 years to graduate. These students counted on the non-graduate side of the tally sheet. I believe UT they recently proposed requiring...

The bassist isn't Clifford Starbuck is he?

I know Milwaukee has tons of cash, but he's stated he wants to stay and they still haven't presented him an offer, or at least one he can't refuse. They may be waiting to see what sort of offers he gets on the open market. I'm not sure Mike will ever make it to superstar status since it seems he...

Mike really needs to get his butt out of Milwaukee. I just checked the All-Star balloting and he's note even in the top 10 vote getters among eastern conference guards. It's the perfect time for him to grab a big contract, and if he wants to see the playoffs or to win a championship he needs to...

Steve19, The areas where I would say LSU played above their heads were at the FT line (29-31), and the fact that they had four players go over 40 min and didn't appear to run out of gas. They came into the game with all five starters averaging double figures and all of them managed to hit...

Here's a picture from the Wisconsin Band site.

sandgk, I think this memo might help explain how the APR calculation works but it's still not very clear. I guess your APR number is based on the percentile ranking of your graduation rate in comparison to other institutions participating in the same sport. It somewhat long so I'll just leave...

Sorry Bill, but that's a Baritone horn or a Euphonium. Guess I showed everyone who was the band geek!

A while back I searched google for Craig Krenzel and came up with this kind of bizarre rant. I clicked on the link just because the I never expected to run into a site called ToledoMuslims. http://www.toledomuslims.com/Criterion/Article.asp?ID=226

I watched the semi-final game vs. Russia. Anyone else have trouble with the fact that the US was wearing blue, and Russia red, white and blue? I miss the old days where you could glance at the screen and recognize the "Red Menace". This just doesn't look like the Russian team to me.

Rick Majerus surfaces again!

Got that right. The non-call on the charge by Williams was a joke, then they follow it up with a touch foul on Sylvester at the other end.

I think the fact that Ok St. was our opponent in the Alamo bowl has increased the overall awareness of oOSU's programs, but right now ILL's dominance is the talk of B10 basketball. When the Bucks aren't playing in the tournament I usually root for other B10 teams (even scUM on occasion) and...
