They should play the game in the Seahawks stadium in a downpour.

Vegas is the most overrated city in Murrica

FSU most likely rolling with 3rd string true freshman QB tomorrow as Tate apparently got a concussion from the gata cheap shot. This is going to be fun!

Way back when I worked at Delaware as the SID for the men's basketball team. They made the tournament and announcers were Verne and Al Maguire. Typically, the SID talks to both announcers at the hour-long shootaround on the day before the game so they can learn about the team since they had announced zero Delaware games all season. Maguire preferred to talk to the student managers because he felt they knew more about the team. So, it was just me and Verne talking Delaware basketball for an hour.

It was so cool when I got home and watched the game to hear Verne drop some of the info I gave him into his broadcast.

I shot a lot of OU games as a freelancer while I was in school and for a couple years after. For basketball I'd usually get there around 2-3 hours before the game to grab my spot on the floor and in the workroom, eat dinner, and relax some before tip. There was a game against UConn in I think 2003 that Dick Vitale was calling. We were all in the room where the catering was when I found out that DICKIE V, BABY is not an act, that is just who he is. 100% of the time.

Probably the coolest interaction I ever had with someone famous was in 2002. I got to the arena super early and was sitting by myself in the high roller seats on the floor reading and taking some notes for class while the arena was empty. This was before a game against Texas Tech. Bobby Knight walks by, asks what I'm reading and then stops to talk for about five minutes once he finds out it's Frederick Jackson Turner's The Frontier in American History. I picture him being like Tony Soprano, getting home late from work and sitting down to eat ice cream (or drink) and watch WWII stuff on the History Channel.

After everything that’s happened so far, it’s a 7 point game. Ducks need to get their shit together.

Franklin hopefully not injured

Coach Knight seemed like a good guy. At UM, we found out that he hated kazoos so my friends and I all bought kazoos and made sure to sit behind the IU bench for the IU-Michigan game. Drove the donors and parents nuts for the entire game as we played them nearly non-stop. At the end of the game, he turns to us smiles and gave us a thumbs up for our effort.

Mrs. Goblue has hung up on Bobby Knight twice. When he was the IU coach, he would call all the basketball corches that make the Indiana HS Final Four. Her school made and she was working in the AD's office when he called. Thought it was prank call both times before his secretary called and said, "This really is Bobby Knight's office trying to talk to your coach."

Seeing the difference between a really good passer and an athlete who dinks the ball off to superior athletes against shit defenses to pile up stats.

Washington will rue the fact they put up 3's instead of 7's. Nix is warming up. You can't keep a Heisman winner down too long.
