Just rewarded myself shoveling this wet-ass slop snow with a Lagunitas Sucks DIPA. Any Hopslam fans out there? This gives it a hard run and it is $8-$10 cheaper a 6-pack. Go buy 2 since it is limited release.

IU kinda turnover prone right now.
Bold prediction: Richardsona and Paul will not attempt a 2 point shot in this game. Nuthin' but 3 pointers for them.
Paul just semi-dunked.

Bold. I don't think it'll hold up but I agree with where you're coming from. They'll either keep up and keep a close game or get whitewashed by not making their long shots.,

Walking Potion.
I am currently drinking a Walking Potion, which is 10 parts sugar, 90 parts whiskey (I made mine with Woodford Reserve for the curious). Then I'll be moving on to some crisp Busch Light in honor of my college days. Go Illini! Catch fire!
Well this one's over
Well this one's over, Illinois jacking up a million long shots and making 5% of them.

Illinois has pretty good talent, but
they don't know the meaning of teamwork. Just a bunch of guys looking for their points.

Good call. How you liking
Good call. How you liking the show? I've watched through episode 3 so far (will watch 4 later tongiht). I love it. Very well done IMO. I can only imagine how much more suspensful it'll get as the season progresses.
Love it
Kevin Spacey is amazing. The plot is pretty intense. I know I will be bummed after episode 13.

Illinois Vs. Indiana...
Indiana is sporting an effective FG% of over 60% right now, and Illinois had reverted to their mean with an effective FG% of around 40%. Illinois is actually a 7.5 point underdog in this game, according to some sites, but then if you want Illinois to beat the spread, you might have to hope for the Illini to do the only thing that they statistically do better than Indiana - get blocks (about one more per game on average).

It sure seems to me
that Indiana gets away with a shit ton of feet shuffling and Zeller does that in particular along with his sharp elbows he uses and doesn't get called for.
Opposing coaches should start bitching about it constantly and maybe wake up the refs to at least consider calling him for fouls.
Illini
showing life, thank goodness

feel bad for illinois
they are getting absolutely hosed on these late calls.
If there was any justice
If there was any justice, Indiana would miss the front end of their 1 and 1s after all of these cheap fouls going their way.

Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
NC State at Duke is probably on midatlantic cable / local TV network -- lots of big ACC games are. I think ESPN doesn't have primary rights to all ACC games. It's just a guess -- living in Wash DC metro area, sometimes you find Duke/UNC games on Channel 20 here, not ESPN. I'm guessing that's the case with NC State / Duke.
Go Illini / Wolfpack !
