TGIF POSBANG - Selection Sunday Edition!
I didn't know Kevin Bacon was in "Wicked."
I’m watching Pac12 b-ball right now, and it is awful. I know the B1G is down, but it’s still miles ahead of this crap. Oregon and Utah are 21 and 19 win teams, but they are an affront to decent modern b-ball. It’s not wonder neither is even sniffing the tournament.
moment UM is #7 in the AP and #9 in KenPom and #12 in the RPI. Looks like a 3 seed to me.
Purdue is #9 in the RPI and MSU is #15.
Of the various metrics I think the RPI is the most heavily weighted..
Plus #Tomknew
Fredo in Havana.
Where's Johnny Ola when you need him? Banana daquiri, anyone?
Fuck "body of work" over the entire season . . .
What you did in March should matter a whole lot more than what you did in December.
Bangs on the way to San Antonio!
on the seeding and/or first round location:
Okay. It's now officially Friday on the Left Coast. We have a weekend to collect our breath before the NCAA Tourney roller coaster. Let's Go Blue!
Here's the guy who showed up at MSG on Sunday to see Sparty in the B1G Championship. Either totally misguided or totally sure of his team.
I know taking a whizz in the middle of the night becomes more common for gentlemen of a certain age...but checking a POSBANG?
things aren't so, shall we say, 'positive':
As an FYI the training on the new duck dog is going quite well!!
Using an old Bill Tarrant book that worked for me in another life. I think I'm gonna wait till 7 months or so to force him. I've heard very good things about Bill Hillman's methods. Thoughts?
when it was new (i think i still have it somewhere) and was very pleased with the results. that dog was a machine and a joy to hunt behind. retreiver only, not a pointer. that said, once you've learned some things you kind of end up figuring out a lot on your own, feel for the dog, your temperment and the pup's, etc.
have not heard of or used hillman, so can offer no opinion on that. for some reason i thought your dog a pointer, or a pointing retriever, or maybe i misremember that since s/he is primarily a duck dog? keep me in the loop. maybe somebody will post an OT thread on their dogs and you can share some pics and narrative on the blog. in fact, that might be a fine OT topic but it would have to wait until after hoops season.
But it's just too much (travel, more extensive dog traing, my poor shooting), so duck hunting it is, and we'll see about pat hunting when Up North. We 'll do the gun dog thread after hoops! Cheers!
If I could upvote you I would.....Happy Friday and Go Blue!
This is how I'll be spending the weekend.
Happy Friday Bloggers!!! Here is to a #3 seeding this weekend!
One of my top films of all time!
Hey, I resent that. I'm not stupid.
