Didn't see anything about this beforehand, which I think is kinda cool.
Telling that almost everyone is there.

Love that even though Wade is a mega star that his love for MU has not changed and he makes time for all types of MU events. He definitely seems to prioritize MU and MU basketball in his life.

Almost a year since it's last post on 8/20/21 - which of course was informing us that Buzz Williams was suspended by the NCAA for a couple of games. Which is classic knowing the author.

Very cool that they tied this in with the MU Athletics golf event.  The panel discussions between the players were great and the guys seemed to genuinely enjoy hanging out with each other and reminiscing about that run.  Those jackets from Wade are SWEET!

It was a blast. Once Travis took the mic I knew it was only gonna go one way. And to Sophia's credit, she let the guys riff because it was entertaining as hell.

This was the most relaxed I've seen Dwyane in a public setting. He's usually so polished in public, and he let the guard down during that panel. If it ever airs, they're gonna need to bleep some stuff out. But he seemed so happy to be there, and was super cool about taking pictures with people at the reception and after.

Happy to see Karon again. I was at MU with him, and he was a really great dude then. Still is. Terry had another commitment, but they're planning on getting the gang back together at a game this season.

The US releases reserves when prices are high, and then fills them when they are low.

Heard a quote from Dwyane Wade from this event speaking to the current team that went something like this...

"You have to know that what you're embarking on is bigger than yourself. It's about the community. It's about people that you will never meet, that can have stories that they can tell their kids."

Thought that was an extremely cool quote. Dwyane Wade just continues to get what it is about.

The measure of inflation is a year-over-year calculation and not a comparison of this month to last month. 8.5% inflation in June and 8.5% inflation in July DOES NOT mean zero inflation. It means that inflation held steady------at 8.5%.

The measure of inflation is a year-over-year calculation and not a comparison of this month to last month. 8.5% inflation in June and 8.5% inflation in July DOES NOT mean zero inflation. It means that inflation held steady------at 8.5%.

Exactly. So when Biden, Harris and Scoopers claim “zero inflation in July” they’re either liars or idiots.

Great point.  Surely needed too.

Absurd post that makes about as much sense as stating there was zero inflation in July, aina?

Heard a quote from Dwyane Wade from this event speaking to the current team that went something like this...

"You have to know that what you're embarking on is bigger than yourself. It's about the community. It's about people that you will never meet, that can have stories that they can tell their kids."

Thought that was an extremely cool quote. Dwyane Wade just continues to get what it is about.

I remember when they won the CUSA tourney and he was waving the flag sitting on top of the shoulders of the crowd/team.  You just knew something big was happening.  I can’t imagine having the awareness to realize it as a player.  Who knows—maybe it’s something that has come to him with all the success ls he has had.

We never won the CUSA tourney with Wade. Lost in the finals to Cincy in 2002, lost our opening game to UAB in 2003. We had over 30 turnovers, Wade had 10. Obviously the extra rest didn’t hurt us.

Must have been the regular season title I was remembering. ~20 years is too long!

The flag was actually the 2002 Cincy court storming. 5 months after 9/11
