  1. I hope you took the low road and mocked him after the game.
  2. As good as Wisconsin looked, I still don't know what kind of team they'll be. I have a feeling Duke is not the 5th best team in the country but even so they are really good. Is Wisconsin a top 15 team? Time will tell I suppose. And why no Rob Wilson? Hurt or just bad matchups?
  3. Awesome game. That's as good as I've seen UW play since....I dunno, that win at Texas a few years back? But this one is even sweeter since it was Duke. And the Big Ten finally wins the BT/ACC challenge.
  4. FTJ was unable to make this thread but he wanted me to nominate Lady Gaga for greatest entertainer of all time.
  5. T Bone, Aren't you a freshman? No hurry to declare. My recommendation is to take a bunch of liberal arts classes and then declare your sophomore year. Amazing how many people start on one track and then switch causing them to graduate in 5 1/2 years.
  6. Welcome back, Mr. Bogut. We missed you and your double doubles.
  7. I used to go to Hawaii a lot for work. Haven't been there in four years or so but my recommendations: - Big Island Steakhouse at Aloha Tower. Get the ribs - phenomenal. - Hy's Steakhouse - high end steak place. Pricey but if you're on your honeymoon it might be worth it. - Harbor Pub - hole in the wall near the Westin Hotel that has the best pizza in Hawaii Try to get out of Waikiki if you can. It's really touristy. North Shore is cool. I agree that island hopping is worth doing. Flights are pretty cheap and only take like 15 - 20 min tops. I agree on JJK's recommendations for other islands.
  8. One of my former players, unbeknown to me, showed up (in Chicago) paying his own expenses etc, and asked if he could present me with the award. He gave a speech of how he would now be dead or a drug dealer if it werent for the program, he is now an anasthesiologist working on becoming a doctor, he had the whole place in tears. That's just awesome. Congrats coach. We need more people like you out there.
  9. The bucks weren't a .650 team or whatever their winning percentage was. They are probably closer to a .500 team when healthy which is still light years better than most people thought going into the season. The latest run is just correcting back to the mean.
  10. I completely agree with the "treat them as a guest" philosophy but its a two way street. We've had two incidents recently one of which I got caught up in. I felt in that incident our "guest" wasn't being very respectful of his hosts. I'm sorry but you are just a person and you are not better than me. Just because you happen to have a connection to the game does not give you the right to be disrespectful of everyone here.
  11. I'm bumping my own quote. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Better against Maryland. Thought the defense was better for the most part but I really don't like Nankivil on that end of the court. He gets out of position a lot. I noticed Bo yanked both he and Leuer early because they weren't getting back in transition. Looked better in the second half.
  12. "The 6-footer, conservatively listed at 260 pounds" If he's 6ft, then I'm Yao Ming.
  13. Iron Maiden rules. I have a new found (well, re-found) respect for them since seeing their live in concert movie on Palladium. Bruce can still hit the high notes. And as I said to you before, your son is like Jared Allen.....but sober.
  14. Nankivil needs to stop trying to dunk over people.
  15. I really was not a fan of the Badgers defense. Too many shots down low and too many layups.
  16. Agent 39 threatened to stop posting if we didn't take him seriously. BIG difference.
  17. This is hard because you basically have to rethink the entire character rather than "which actor would give the same performance" because they most certainly would not. I think that's why remakes of popular movies don't always work - people have the image so ingrained of what the character should be that they don't allow or any other interpretation. having said all that, I'll chime in with a few ideas for the non-Italian actors: Kay Adams - take your pick. I think most solid American actresses could replace her but I'll throw out an Aussie instead: Naomi Watts Tom Hagan - Ewen McGregor or Ron Livingston And a couple of the "family": Sonny - Dominic West (McNulty from The Wire) And the Abe Vigoda character: Domineck Lombardozi (Herc from The Wire)
  18. that game was hamstrung by the tight officiating. Hard for UW to do anything with Leuer and Nankivil playing like 5 min in the second half.
  19. I'd like to thank FatterThanJoey for not posting quite as much as he used to. It's greatly appreciated.
  20. Wonder if this guy will be there: http://madison.craigslist.org/tix/1471862416.html
  21. Agreed. The Turkish Torpedo rules. He is my favorite Buck after Jennings.
  22. Fine I can buy that. But then do us a favor and either don't post about the situation at all or just say "Guys, I can't really talk about it." I'd have much more respect for you if you did that than say something is "a bogus rumor" when it's anything but.
  23. He's a red shirt frosh.
  24. Bogut's out 2 - 4 weeks.
  25. What was their record in games Bogut didn't start? Not saying you're wrong, but the bulk of that 17 - 33 was missing both of them.
