    That would be awesome. I'm afraid that Klesmit might get into the "Shooters shoot and I'm going to keep shooting." I think he has done a good job (along with timely subs) recently. We will see.

    I failed to pick up on the meter of the poetry. I didn't like poetry, really... Perhaps a limerick? New Era released a new hat. They thought it would really be phat. After trials and views, As experts did muse, The product was labeled as shat.

    Gotta love the depth. Wade Miley version 2 as far as providing depth?

    If the game is close towards the end, the Badgers are done. The turnover by McGee with around 1:30 to go was a nonchalant garbage pass. It looked almost like the pass Crowl had against Oregon. It would seem like the coaching staff needs to come up with something a little different in these close, end-game situations. Fool me once, shame on you... fool me twice, shame on me.

    How about Oakla... wait a minute!!!!! I saw my first game outside of Milwaukee last year and that was at Arizona. I don't know if I would consider that tops on my list. My daughter and her fiancée saw Camden, Fenway, Wrigley, Tiger Stadium, Target, The Reds stadium, and Washington. I believe Fenway was their favorite.

    I like Yo Yo I thought of famous people who did tricks with a Yo Yo I think of Tommy Smothers. Let's call it the Smotherer.

    I get it -- the Shell was getting old. It appears there will be no indoor track, nor will there be any training access for outside people. I would get my short butt over to the shell for some pickup games. Running, lifting, etc. I'll miss it. The Track and Field programs are nervous. Where are they going to train now? This is the biggest capital expenditure in the history of the University. All... for... football. Here is the kicker -- the memorial bricks that people purchased were probably going to get tossed until there was an uproar. Now, I guess, McIntosh says nothing will be tossed. IMHO, the football facility can be used for many things: indoor soccer, softball, and even base... psych! (The baseball thing still chaps my back side). The shell was a good facility available to the students. I haven't seen anything where this new facility will benefit the students.

    I know the game was against the last place team in the B1G, but there were a few things that stood out (... not limited to...) Janicki was much more aggressive. Towards the end when he crashed the boards from the back side of the 1-3-1 was something you would never see. That meant there wasn't somebody back on defense. #11 from Washington was a beast and very aggressive. It was good for the Badgers to play against that type of physical player. They seemed to handle it well for the most part.

    Geesch, the next thing you know they are going to tear down the Shell to... ... oh yeah, that is already underway... Prediction -- wrestling gone in 3 years.

    This may sound silly, but this might be the best thing that could have happened to them in the long run. Full disclosure -- I only saw the last 2 minutes of regulation, but was following on the Yahoo Sports app. I think they let the hype get to them. Up around 20 late in the game? I am guessing they coasted... and got burnt. I took notice that Oregon had only 4 fouls late in the second half. Either the Badgers were not getting the calls, or the refs were letting them play. Guess what? The latter is what the NCAA tournament will be like. Crowl? That turnover late in the game happens at least once a game. His sloppy passing has been an issue all year. Film room will have something like this: "Do not throw 100MPH fastballs when you are inbounding the ball." Geesch.

    What were we saying about turnovers?

    The thing that stuck out to me during the Illini game was the crazy defense by the Badgers. They covered, helped, and moved HARD. This was everybody. It might be the best defensive effort of the year. If they can keep it up, look out! I think the PHD message has been received well: Poor, Hungry, Driven.

    One word that has been somewhat unwritten and seldom mentioned is Chemistry. Of course, winning helps, but I truly believe the players have each others' backs. It is more than that, but it is getting the right pieces to fit with the plan. My daughter asked me last night where Tonje came from. I mentioned that he came from Omaha (and Colorado State and Missouri) which reminded me of Chucky Hepburn. There was some rumblings that Tonje was coming to Wisconsin to play with Hepburn before Chucky left. I don't know if that is true or not. What I do know is Tonje has really fit in well. The other pieces fit well, too. Last night, I was getting frustrated at some of the shots that were going up. Then I mentioned, "but they are up by 10," or, "but they have 80 points." I think I have been so programmed by Bennett-ball and Ryan-ball that I get uneasy when they don't take care of the ball. Time to get with the times, Samurai.

    I still remember seeing Bruce Pearl at Flannery's having lunch with some random dude a few days before he left for UWM. Maybe Auburn will play Illinois in the tourney? 😉

    We dropped YouTubeTV a long time ago. We went to fuboTV when they were in their infancy. Their prices have jumped big time, obviously. We still get to watch FanDuel on fubo. A few things I don't like about fubo: No Turner channels. This is solved by our free MAX subscription that is still grandfathered by our AT&T wireless plan. March Madness still in tact. Buffering on occasion. It gets annoying at times, but that could be because of our horse-sugar Spectrum cable that seems to have hiccups on a regular basis. Viewers outside of the house. Everybody is "cracking down" on this, I suppose. There are only 4 4K channels which are only used for key sporting events and are not available for DVR. What I do like: beIn sports. Every once in a while, they have some good stuff. The DVR is just like YouTubeTV (at least from what I remember from YouTube TV) That's about all. If YouTube TV carried FanDuel, we would jump back.

    at :37 in this video, Raf asks, "This style of play is right up your alley. Is that the case?" Tonje: "Oh yeah! I love Wisconsin Basketball, baby!" I wonder if the recruiting classes will get better, or perhaps the transfer rank (not that that means anything, necessarily). According to 247sports.com: 2024: Composite 63 / Transfer 55 2023: 34 / 95 2022: 108 / 112 2025: 51 / N/A

    FIFY 😉

    Why wasn't that check by OSU into the boards that led to the "offsetting penalties" at the end of the game called to begin with? Also, why wasn't it a double major or a 5-minute for boarding? Uggh.

    Does it seem like they are freeing up space for buyout candidates? I thought they did something like that in the past, but am not well versed on that. I had read they were freeing up roster spots.
  22. Samurai Bucky
    Well... he is probably surprised he is still employed, too... 😉 I wonder if Zrno would consider transferring.

    Bucks are also getting Jericho Sims from the Knicks. https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2025/02/knicks-to-trade-jericho-sims-to-bucks.html
  24. Samurai Bucky
    Or the machines will see us as threats... and... 😉
  25. Samurai Bucky
    Nope. I don't care if he plays for free. He has character issues and that can be cancer on the team.
