    Ah, there's the "After I had time to reflect...." statement we all knew would be coming: https://twitter.com/jeffborzello/status/1495920691883003906/photo/1

    You just know they’ll somehow end up planing each other in the Big Ten tournament…

    Reports are three players suspended for a game (only Neath for Wisconsin) $10k fine for Gard, no suspension for him or Krabbenhoft.
  4. PeaveyFury
    Wouldn’t be stunned if the guy who made the gesture we’ve all seen by now gets a game for that. Wouldn’t be completely unreasonable and would allow the Big Ten to claim both sides were held accountable.

    I’m not a fan of the ‘you just need to figure out how not to make him mad’ narrative as that’s been used since the dawn of time to enable bad behavior in people who can’t control their emotions.

    In the most St Louis Cardinals- like way, Howard apparently believes that one team can continue to try to win, while if the other does, it’s rubbing it in. Never mind of course that he literally did the same exact thing on the other side of a blowout two weeks ago….
  8. PeaveyFury
    Yes, Gard immediately cited that as his reasoning in his on-court postgame interview. Taking the timeout gave them 10 seconds vs. the 4.

    I think Potrykus hit the nail on the head this morning: "If Howard wanted to leave the building w/out speaking to anyone he could have. Why did he choose to go through the line, take his mask down and bark that he would remember this? Answer: He was dying to do what he did."
  10. PeaveyFury
    If the benchmark is a no-context 'don't put your hands on me', I think it's possible to say that Gard made an error in that regard. But knowing Gard and his character, I genuinely believe Gard wanted to stop Howard to legitimately explain. Of course, when Howard says 'don't put your hands on me' while having a handful of Gard's shirt seems to take the wind out of the sails of Howard's argument in that regard. I think in the end, the reality is Howard wanted to get a blow-by shot in and Gard wanted to respond by explaining. Would it have been best in the end if Gard had just ignored it? Yep. But basically everything Howard did immediately before and literally everything after that one moment was a raging embarrassment for both Michigan and the league. And it's not a shock considering that Howard apparently falls apart at the hint that he feels disrespected, even if that means ignoring all of his own actions that led to the situation, like say pressing a bunch of walk-ons down 16 and then insulting all of our intelligence after the fact by claiming a press wasn't a press.
  11. PeaveyFury
    Wait, you mean this about Gard and are citing a situation manufactured by a guy on power grab, rather than Howard whose history apparently includes threatening to kill Mark Turgeon last year? https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2935895-report-maryland-alleges-juwan-howard-told-mark-turgeon-ill-f-king-kill-you.amp.html
  12. PeaveyFury
    Howard doubled- down in his presser. It’ll be interesting if the ensuing week results in a sheepish apology when he realizes he may actually lose his job.
  13. PeaveyFury
    Starter still in, full court press on walk-ons. Do as I say, not as I coach?
  14. PeaveyFury
    That’s what, a 10-game suspension for Howard? I have NEVER seen a coach throw a punch like that…. Honestly, I’d can him.
  15. PeaveyFury
    How can you possibly know this? Because in this particular case, it’s not the Brewers that need to do the asking.
  16. PeaveyFury
    I’d suggest reading up on the actual terms of the lease before calling something incorrect, because the Brewers actually can force them to spend money because of the state of the art clause.
  17. PeaveyFury
    Not sure why the need for the condescension. The whole purpose of the study is to determine if they actually have the funds to live up to their part of the agreement with the Brewers as it is currently funded. Not sure why you're choosing to interpret the wording of a correct statement that simply omitted the 'as currently funded' part to spin it something that wasn't said. And that's the issue that seems to be problematic with how this narrative is being spun, apparently by the JS and bloggers- the Brewers haven't and won't ask the taxpayers for anything. They will probably, however, ask the stadium district to meet the terms of their lease, as ANY tenet would of their landlord. Then the stadium district will have to obtain the funding if they're short, or they'll be non-compliant with the lease.
  18. PeaveyFury
    I think to clarify what's actually happening here, the Brewers aren't asking the taxpayers for anything, nor will they. If someone has to come back to the taxpayers, it's the Stadium District, who may not be able to live up to their part of the contract they agreed to with the team. The study is meant to determine if that's a possible problem.
  19. PeaveyFury
    Clements was obviously a huge influence on Rodgers developing into who he is. He’s a fantastic choice to assist with Love as well.
  20. PeaveyFury
    That's kind of a big deal. Clements flopped as OC, granted under McCarthy's system, but I recall he was highly regarded as an offensive assistant. Feels a lot like a move that you'd make with the expectation that Rodgers would be back to me as well.
  21. PeaveyFury
    The title of this thread is misleading, as nothing in those links have the Brewers asking for anything. They’ve simply commissioned a study of anticipated stadium improvements needs through 2040. In addition, the three links appear to basically be blog posts that in some cases cite each other. The way I read the source post is that the contract with the stadium district requires the district to pay for improvements to the stadium, and there’s concern that the district will run out of the money needed to do so. I don’t see the Brewers crying poor. I see possible concern that the district won’t have the funds to live up to their end of the deal.

    Rutgers is not a bad basketball team. 15-9 and a pretty decent set of wins against some solid BigTen teams. This would be their fourth consecutive win and every opponent was ranked Top 20 in the country. Edit: Now 16-9

    I’m don’t think I buy the logic behind ‘not many people do it so it’s easy to become elite’.
  25. PeaveyFury
    You don't have to be under contract with a team for the June 1 date to matter- it's simply a cap mechanism to prorate it between two years instead of accelerating it all onto the current.
