It pains me to have to post this, maybe it's been posted before and summarily dealt with. If not, in spite of all reason we may have to move the croc over the housecat into second place behind the mighty bear:

Here, here. I second the motion to drop the big cat down one spot to third place.

You can't argue with science.

i believe it will be discerned that the reason for the absence of bear tracks on the 'dinosaur highway' is that they were all wearing crocodilian boots...

DOWN GOES PURDUE!!

DOWN GOES PURDUE!!

Alabama beats Purdue, 65-56, to win the Puerto Rico TipOff. Nice road trip with wins over Maryland, Wichita State and the Boilermakers.

Glad to see you so hyped up for basketball, AA. It'll make it easier when Bama gets leapfrogged for the BCS title game, due to not winning their division of the SEC*.

* = No need to smack me down for the gridiron jab. I know Carolina football sucks. We can't even win when we're cheating.

Henson did suck his freshman year, goldie. He was terrible and so was UNC.

you've just proved again that you A) know nothing about hoops and B) are an utter dipshit.

keep it coming, assbreath

^ be all that as it may, surely you weren't touting the weari as better ballers than henson?

hedge's doing so (as claimed by goldenbear) can be dismissed as the drug-addled ramblings of a pickled-brained lush, but you're supposed to be (somewhat of) a professional?

If we get leap frogged, we get leapfrogged. I think if we beat AU, we're in, though. I think there is enough respect for the SEC West and for Bama to get the nod. All the teams that would go in our place have flamed out. But if it happens, it happens. We didn't take care of business, so we've got not room for tears.

Re basketball: we are playing great defensively and marginally offensively - which will be enough for a nice season.

I don't think that's really Goldie

2-3 posts all multiple paragraphs and not a single mispell/gramatical fokup

impressive run in puertorico

we beat loyola of chicago for our highlight of the year
tuf games coming up though--luv our two new freshman

tiger had the putter working well saturday night--he looks like a guarenteed multiple winner next year to me.

Fear the croc. Dinosaurs did.

i was impressed w/ 'bama's team this weekend. I watched most of their wichita st. and @ 1/2 of their purdue games. they may be the cats' biggest competition this year in the sec.

Bama's basketball team looks mighty strong. Can actually win the SEC this year.

To me, Tiger looked good the whole tournament. He was just stuck with some shitty partners before Sunday. Clearly had the best round of the day yesterday under pressure circumstances. Had Baddely crumplin in a corner begging for his daddy Norman to find a way to bail him out. That Ishikawa kid looks pretty incredible. You can tell Phil has cashed it in. He's got his few majors and a buttload of money. No need to press himself any harder. Bubba Watson has got to be the most overrated player the Americans have.

What was that story AA told about "call me Ishmael" when he went to Starbuck's that time?

I was in NYC for the Dook/UK double header. Didn't make it to the Garden, but I did watch both games on tv. I loved when UK and Kansas almost got into a fight as a result of T. Jones flopping his ass off and then the Kansas guy stepped over him and then the whole UK team turned into a troupe of enraged baboons showing their asses. Wonder why Crow nor non of the other UK contingent who always whine about Carolina guys flopping didn't have anything to say about Jones's flopping?

We went down to "Occupy Wall Street" (yeah, right), it was basically about 150 young 'uns who were evidently pissed that they missed the 1960's (and a couple of local yahoos holding up signs, my favorite being "Uh, how greedy can a motherfucker be?"). It was basically a glorified drum circle, of which I've seen much better on any given Sunday in Golden Gate Park (from which vantage point Muir Woods is easily visible). Yesterday a crowd gathered outside Bloomberg's swanky residence on corner of circa 77th and Park Ave., and then marched over to Central Park to start up the drum circle again. One of the marchers was some topless chick with OK tits, so that was good. Somebody handed me a flag, so now I'm part of "the movement". Down with corporate greed!

And the funny thing is if "Wall Street" walked out there and offered them 50K / year jobs, they would drop their signs like they were poison. Then after 6 months they would be telling the next group of people out there to get a job and quit bitching.

3:25 mark, watch Jones's arms fly as he flops his ass off then gets stomped on by the Kansas player...

That's me in the green shirt and toboggan behind the dude in the red hat. Also me (still in green shirt) standing on the wall in the back at the 30 second mark of the video at the bottom of the page, and again at the 39 seconds mark holding the flag...

As I said in FSU...OWS just screams Hamsterdam for Yuppie Offspring, to me. I never did go downtown to look at them. I wish they had a coherent agenda, but there is no agenda by design...which I find counterproductive.

The funnier thing to me is that the whole Occupy movement was started by a Canadian who was raised in Germany and Australia.
