Can she beat a manatee?

She's an excellent example of what often happens when you're focused and in attack mode.   Let's not bring our marine mammals into a fake confrontation.

Did you seriously click that ad that has been on twitter for weeks for a movie about the national debt and then post a snippet of it here?

Just wait until he posts a clip of "2000 Mules."

Posh Alexander to Dayton.
This article says that Dayton was a focus school for Posh as part of his High School recruitment .

    something like 11 out of last 13 jobs reports have had to be REVISED DOWN. 

    most people don't see the revisions-

       that's what weekend at Bernie's is hoping

That happens often, regardless of who the president is.

Most people are intelligent enough to know that.

But Dementia Don - the only modern president to end up with fewer employed Americans than when he took office - is grateful that his mindless cultists aren't among the knowledgeable.

Good catch.  I thought we were a 3 that year.  Nonetheless, stellar coaching job leading a team with DWade to a first round loss against Tulsa.

Do you feel Crean was a better coach than Buzz?  Seems you haven't weighed in on the topic, so lets get your rankings!

At Indiana, Bobby Knight had stellar coaching jobs in losing first-round NCAA tournament games to double-digit seeds Pepperdine, Boston College, Richmond and Cleveland State. I'm guessing you think he was a pretty good coach.

Hell, Shaka went 9 years without winning a single NCAA tournament game, including a loss to a 14-seeded Abilene Christian team that a Texas squad with 4 NBA players should have beaten by 20+. And I know you think Shaka is a great coach despite that stellar coaching job.

So the argument that Crean was bad because he lost to a 12-seed to end Wade's first college season (and then went to the Final Four one year later) is an interesting one.

Both Williams and Crean contributed a lot to Marquette basketball. Crean left Williams much more talent than most first-year coaches receive to work with: Matthews, James, McNeil, Hayward, Acker, Cubillan, Fulce, Burke.

Williams had two full years at Marquette - one as Crean's assistant, one as the head coach of a talented team - to recruit good players for his own second season. And he did a good job, landing Butler, DJO, Buycks and Maymon.

I'm not sure what the problem is with that Crean-to-Williams handoff.

Who effing cares?

I think Buzz is a better basketball coach, but Crean improved the program more than Buzz did and was a more important coach to the program.
