One week ago Butler was feeling good about tourney chances ad a bivbletteam and saw the next four games as make or break. They're 0-2 after a brutal home loss to Georgetown. The bubble burst.

We have a full week off and many winnable games coming up, beginning with Butler.  I wouldn't have thought that two weeks ago.  UCONN and Nova are obviously highly doubtful.  The other 6 can be seized and taken imo.   And then who knows in the BE tournament.

Quote from: BM1090 on January 31, 2026, 10:10:58 PMNever had the NA Black Butte, but the normal one is fantastic. Maybe I'll give it a try.

It's sweeter than I want it, but so is most every NA beer since the sugars didn't turn into alcohol.

Quote from: rocky_warrior on January 31, 2026, 07:36:12 PMSome are better than others.  Most are at least half bad.

I like (NA varieties..):
Heineken (not really, but about as bad as Heineken)
Guinness (actually pretty good)
Brooklyn brewing IPAs
Untitled Art IPAs
Fremont IPA
Fremont Dark Star
Deschutes Black Butte

Those are the best.  Athletic stuff sux.

I should add: if you like light beers, pbr NA fits the bill

Quote from: rocky_warrior on January 31, 2026, 09:38:08 PMI donno, vs Creighton was our best game, and @ Creighton was our worst game.  So you're eliminating our worst, but including our best. I agree MU has been playing better, but I don't think we have a tough team.

Keeps the 24 point loss @SJU in there, though. And road losses to Butler and DePaul. Even with those three games, they're playing a lot better. Covering more spreads, more competitive.

I think learning to win on the road is more of a skill than toughness. They're getting closer. We'll see if they figure it out this year. I'm hoping they do because it'll really change the perspective on next year if they can finish strong. We'll see.

Quote from: MuggsyB on January 31, 2026, 09:46:36 PMI've probably mentioned that I believe all species should be able to complete in certain Olympic events. 

I would beat every single one in javelin!

Most in every single winter sport.

Probably break dancing too, and that's sad.

Quote from: JTJ3 on January 31, 2026, 09:56:15 PMI think its pretty obvious at this point both will be leaving.

We'll have plenty of room to add the transfer wing and big we need.


But they must be immediate major impact guys.  Back up the Brinks for Nigel and find the two pieces that will bring us beck to national prominence.  Don't tell me that can't be done.

Quote from: Markusquette on January 31, 2026, 09:32:19 PMFor next year I'd like to roll with only the current underclassmen minus Hamilton

James | Transfer
Stevens | Phillips / Walker | Johnston
Transfer | EGBuonu / Miletic
Parham | Owens | Recruit/Transfer
Transfer | Sheek | Clark

Interesting. Not to be harsh but it looks like we're adding Tre & Sean to the ash heap of history.

Do you need to write a book to prove your value?  Or invent drugs?  Our ecosystems are dependent on many of our tremendous animal species.  I never stated they are "just like us".  We're more skilled in some things and they're more skilled in some things.  And being intelligent doesn't mean you're a better decision maker or are not a complete jagoff.
I've probably mentioned that I believe all species should be able to complete in certain Olympic events.  Perhaps when a 🐆 is allowed to compete in the 100m, 200m, and 400m, we'll chillax about how great we are in everything.    This is one of many, many, examples.  :)
