Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on Today at 03:01:59 PMJT Toppin is out for the year with a torn ACL. Brutal blow to Texas Tech. They were capable of winning it all.


Toppin, Saunders (BYU), Wilson (UNC) are a few massive names that have been injured in the last week or so. Crazy how the tournament picture can be shaken up that fast. Stay healthy and you've got a shot if your a tournament team.

Not that we were a title contender, but we would have been tourney-bound in 2005 until we lost Travis for the season, and Jerel's injury screwed us in 2007; that team had Sweet 16 talent.

Wilson will be back for the tourney, maybe sooner. The other two are done with ACL tears. Brutal.

Quote from: Scoop Snoop on Today at 04:06:05 PMNice try. Do they murder the people they are evicting? Do they load them onto planes and send them to remote detention centers? Do they take 5-year-old kids and lock them up also?

I'm pretty sure local authorities tell the people they are evicting (after showing them a warrant-what a novel idea!) that if they do not leave, they will forcibly remove them. And then the local authorities head to the nearest donut shop for coffee, and the evicted people are either taken in by an organization-maybe even your parish, who knows?-or move in with friends or family.

     

And the local sheriff doesn't wear a mask while evicting either.

At no point in our history have we allowed law enforcement to wear masks to conceal their identity while carrying out routine operations. Now we should be allowed to have agents of the federal government do so? Wasn't this what we were warned about years ago?

"Lower body injury" with no other info at this time.  MRI is pending.

Quote from: muwarrior69 on Today at 03:21:55 PMAs should local authorities. Do Sheriffs handle all eviction with civility?

I think we could beat a team of St. John's quality at home at this point. I just don't think SJU is that team. Matchup seems really bad for us.

Hope I'm wrong though

Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on Today at 03:19:43 PMI wouldn't be completely shocked if Marquette pulls this one out tonight.

From your lips to God's ear

Quote from: WhiteTrash on Today at 03:37:43 PMThis is probably a flawed option, but what about eliminating the draft and teams bidding for players?  Obviously there would be a cap, but you wouldn't need to be bad to buy the best player.

I'd guess it would hinder the trade market?

I think all things being equal, even with a cap, teams like Utah are going to end up having to pay more for a player than a team like the Lakers.

Maybe another way to do it is to have teams submit blind bids for players and the players get to choose which one they would take. (But bids would undoubtedly be leaked I guess.)

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 02:31:15 PMLosing Sidney Crosby early in the second period contributed to that.

How serious is his injury?  Ty. 

Quote from: Mu8891 on Today at 02:57:59 PMHe should not be on the list.  But, another season like this next year and he's gone ( or Broeker will be ... or both)


That said ... it's shocking that Cincy has tolerated such dreck for 5 years. Wow
