  1. Notre Dame is out of the tourney due to COVID protocols.
  2. The ones that come to your house they do. The one I got over the weekend I did it over Instagram. Though the one I ordered she is a private masseuse and doesn't work for a company well she has her own company but no website or anything like that. She operates completely on Instagram and Twitter. Yes I know how this sounds. I also got my last haircut from someone from Instagram. OK - let’s assume booking massages and other (legal) services on Instagram is normal. Booking massages from 15 different individuals on Instagram is still odd, right?
  3. I appreciate the input on tipping the officiant.
  4. My brother is getting married this weekend. The officiant is a local judge. Do you still tip the officiant in this case? Or would that be in bad taste? I’m also worried the judge cannot accept tips and the exchange would be awkward. Google says no to tipping civil employees.
  5. Makes sense. Thank you.
  6. It’s odd to me that there are only civil charges against Watson ... not criminal.
  7. I always chuckle about this when I see ‘Vice President’ in someone’s profile. I work for a company with about 6,000 employees and I’d wager there are at least 300 ‘Vice Presidents’ (myself included). A VP and an actual ‘Executive VP’ are two very different things. I have enough authority to approve birthday cakes and pizza orders, but still need special permission to order more than two toppings. When prompted, I usually just say I’m a manager in such-and-such department. At least my mother is impressed with my business card.
  8. Could be worse ... Nodak plays their first regional game at 8:30 pm. If they advance, they’d play the next day against the winner of Michigan and Duluth (who play in the early game at 3:00 pm). I’d rather have the extra 5 hours of rest than the better TV window.
  9. The men’s bracket is out: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sbncollegehockey.com/platform/amp/2021/3/21/22343496/2021-ncaa-mens-hockey-tournament-bracket-announced
  10. Too funny ... just mentioned the old Rob Demovsky / Brian Wardle feud in this thread and then Demovsky rips the scab off and tweets that UWGB could have hired Porter Moser 11 years ago, but went with Wardle instead.
  11. It’s pretty crazy that in the 20-year history of Women’s NCAA hockey, only 4 teams have ever won national titles: Wisconsin(6), Minnesota(6), Duluth(5) and Clarkson(3). Clarkson’s success is fairly recent. For the first 13 years, it was just a 3-horse race.
  12. ^^^ I think you tip it sideways and use a fork.
  13. When FCS football was moved to the Spring, I wondered if it would garner more interest than usual now that it was (temporarily) out of the shadow of the NFL and FBS football - sort of like how the XFL was a novelty for sports fans in between the Super Bowl and March Madness.
  14. Wardle was pretty much vindicated by an outside attorney who was hired to investigate the alleged mistreatment of players at UWGB. The two complaints the university received were from helicopter parents who thought he was being too hard on their kids. Wardle’s core players vouched for him and the end result was Wardle meeting with a personality coach to discuss how to better motivate his team. His best years at UWGB came after that investigation. thanks I didn't follow the situation that closely just knew of complaints. I do think Miller and Wardle are my 2 early favorites. No problem ... As mentioned previously, I thought his 5-year tenure in Green Bay was very successful. He left on good terms for a big pay bump at Bradley. If I’m being objective, however, he might have an issue with the media. He famously burned a bridge with a local newspaper reporter, Rob Demovsky (who now works for ESPN covering the Packers). Wardle felt Demovsky’s coverage of the mistreatment allegations was unfair. Demovsky claimed he tried to get Wardle’s side, but Wardle was bound by a gag order while the investigation was ongoing (which is true). Wardle cut off Demovsky’s access to the program, which was pretty much essential for a local newspaper reporter. I didn’t think much of it because the whole thing seemed overblown, but Wardle was accused of a similar media issue at Bradley: https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-spt-bradley-brian-wardle-peoria-journal-star-reporter-20190316-story.html

  16. I don’t know if Brian Wardle is the answer for Marquette, but I have a high opinion of him. He’s the only coach to lead UWGB to a Horizon League title in the last 25 years. I see someone already vandalized Wojo’s Wikipedia page: ‘On March 19, 2021 it was announced that Wojciechowski was parting ways with Marquette due to a 7 year collapse in February and March.’
  17. Virginia - Illinois - Michigan - Baylor I’ve picked Virginia to win the whole thing for the last several years (big Tony Bennett fan). When they finally won in 2019, I came in 4th in my large work pool and missed out on the big money. After having a good-looking bracket and still missing out on the big prize, I thought I’d do something different this time around and pick a dark horse. The rest of my bracket is pretty chalky. Go Cavs!
  18. According to this story, Watson reached out to the first accuser on Instagram to request a massage ... because that is how normal people schedule appointments* (sarc): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/deshaun-watson-legal-troubles-lawyer-in-texas-has-filed-multiple-lawsuits-alleging-sexual-misconduct-by-qb/ * edit: maybe that is how some normal people make appointments these days and I’m just getting old
  19. Deshaun Watson up to 3 sexual assault allegations: https://football.realgm.com/wiretap/45766/Deshaun-Watson-Has-Third-Lawsuit-Filed-Against-Him I usually give folks the benefit of the doubt after one accusation, but it’s not a good look when they start stacking up. I wonder if the Texans are starting to regret not selling high on him?

    Pizza

    This thread reminds me of the high amount of processed food and Kool-Aid I consumed as a kid in the 80s and 90s. What were our parents thinking? I’m honestly a little worried about the long term GI consequences of such a diet. Thankfully, my post college years have been pretty clean (Diet Coke addiction aside).
  21. On my office IM platform, ‘(k)’ is a hot key for a kissing emoji. I work in financial services, so it’s not uncommon for us to use ‘401(k)’ in a discussion. I’ve (virtually) kissed more colleagues than I can count.

    Pizza

    My wife and I ate those in college and still buy a few today when we see them on sale for $1 (which isn’t often anymore). It’s not great pizza, but it is a great value.
  23. I don’t follow college basketball too closely, but I see Duke, Kentucky, and Virginia are all in danger of missing the NCAA tournament. Is that because they weren’t able to schedule Little Sisters of the Poor and inflate their records with a bunch of non-conference home wins or are there deeper issues with each program?
  24. Good luck, the last two times I called to compalin, they basically said "too bad" and that was it. They did not budge on their "new" pricing, and it was either take it or leave it. If it works for you, please share your magic words... My Spectrum internet bill has gone from $39 to $75 over the course of the last 6 years.
  25. I saw an announcement once for a "Butts-McCracken" wedding. I'm guessing they didn't hyphenate. [sarcasm]They’d probably take a lot of crap for that.[/sarcasm]
