    That's more like it. LFG!

    Thanks for pointing that out. To think, I have been mad at Gute for that. I am guilty of message board slander ?.

    I was wondering if the other major sports had this issue and discovered Baseball is the only sport that as the exemption. Baseball America Article I Googled a little bit to see if I could find something on European soccer regarding Antitrust laws. I stopped after two pages of UEFA vs. the European Super League. If requiring baseball to follow the Sherman Act allows for a better competitive balance, then I'm all for it. However, baseball is a little bit of a different animal with the extensive minor league system. I just find it weird that the owners the Bucks, in one the smallest markets in the NBA, is willing to incur the fourth largest luxury tax. Even if there was more of a competitive balance, you still need to have a good GM, scouts, etc. Stearns / Arnold, Horst and the line of GMs for the Packers have used good philosophies for all of the Wisconsin-based small market teams to be competitive. I still am mad that Gutekunst traded down an missed on TJ Watt, but that is for the NFL thread ?

    @CheezWizHed Thank you! It's always funny until you have to clear out your browser cache.

    Trying again...

    Doesn't seem to be working for me, either. It shows up blue, but when I save it, the style goes away.

    Perhaps somebody more athletic and with some muscle to them? Vogt was the only one who wouldn't get pushed around during a rebound. Up those calories, boyz!!!!!

    Yes, I'm disappointed. But like others have mentioned, I need to remember how much they exceeded expectations. I went to Madison when it was a big thing to make it to the NIT... which they finally did. I would have never thought they would have had the continued success they are having now. Yes, the expectations are higher (as they should be), but it is a far cry from what it was in the late 80's / early 90's. That same attitude applies to: Wisconsin Football Brewers Baseball Bucks Basketball Believe it or not... these are the good ole' days. On, Wisconsin!

    Awesome!!!!!!

    I would have to agree with you, although Toby Maguire wasn't all that bad. I think it has a lot to do with the technology of the day and Spider-Man 3 was atrocious. *** Request for a "spoilers" tag ?

    With the changes in shift rules, do you think they will need to call a field? Or... was I the only one who called a field when I was a kid?

    <blue sarcasm text> They are setting the game back 50 years. </blue sarcasm text>

    I had no idea about the LSU coach being fired a week before the first game. That must have been tough for all of the LSU players to adjust to.

    JuJu to Kansas City (should have posted this here instead of in the Davante Adams thread...)
  16. Samurai Bucky
    JuJu is off the table

    A rematch of the 1990 NCAA Hockey Championships... LFG!

    Hey... celebrate St. Patrick's Day early. Beer is food.

    I don’t see him being a good NBA player. He needs to get stronger. He also needs to stop reaching in so much on defense... or get better at it. One theme I have heard is the announcers... yes the announcers talking about how the Badgers are recipients of poor calls. I think it was Robbie Hummel who called out the refs for the terrible missed goaltending call when they played Purdon't. We will see what happens in the NCAA tournament. Will they allow defenders to clothesline Brad Davidson and not have a foul called? Maybe.

    Kenpom and the Net rankings are basically the same thing and are core to determining seeds. Even if they win one game, they will be a 5, or a 4 at best. I know it sounds ridiculous, but math doesn't lie, right? On the morning of 3/11, the Badgers are #31 in Kenpom and #21 in Net. https://kenpom.com/ https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-basketball-net-rankings

    I have not seen it, yet. A friend of mine said that it was not good at all. He thought there was a lot of "woke" ideas in the storyline. Did you get that impression?

    Mrs. Samurai and I are coming out of the other end of this -- our youngest of four is graduating high school this year (Milwaukee Suburb) and heading off to college. We made the decision, like you Cheez, that my wife would stay at home. Just before we got pregnant with our youngest, she went back to college to finish up her degree. She started entering the workforce on a part time basis a few years later. Now, she has a full time job and I do as well. Some challenges I see today vs. that of 25 years ago (our oldest is 25) are the "chauvinist" suggestions if a woman is going stay at home and care for her children. I look at my daughters and when they get a degree (one is in pharmacy), will she be willing to "give that up" to stay at home? I don't know. In my opinion, staying at home and caring for your children should not be discouraged, but lauded. That said, it is imperative that there is a good support system available. For us, our family was very involved, but also our church. Mrs. Samurai would often go to "Play Group" time with other moms and their children. It didn't only give the kids to play with other kids, but it also gave the moms a chance to talk with other adults. There were six mothers and once every six weeks each mom would get to drop their child / children off and then have a few hours to herself. She could go to the spa, go "shopping," or maybe go home and take a nap. Fortunately, we feel blessed in that things have worked out well. It certainly saved us money, and it also helped that we had waited a few years before having kids so our nest egg could get built up a little.

    In the prepared statement he apologized to Joel Krabbenhoft..... "Joel Krabbenhoft" Yeah.. misspelling his name was a real slap in the face.

    They were putting fiber in the neighborhood over the past two years. They got to the street next to mine and stopped -- they went to a different part of the village. I will get no fiber and like it...
