LOL. Sorry but I born into BBN (Union County, now living in Evansville). Not only that but I’m a fan of A&M over the Longhorns. Have a great day!

From a FoxNews article about how New York is closing their illegal shelters, etc. This Dem/lib mindset infuriates me.....

"Our staff is on hand to help guests plan for next steps as the city consolidates its operations," a city hall spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Oh there is a very reasonable explanation. Just no legal explanation.

Theyre cheating. Its a lazy cheat too because they didn't bother anchoring them with registrations.

Boston is an odd place to me. Liberal as hell but pretty well run from a visitor pov. Homeless nowhere to be seen. Tons of mass transport options. Successfully maintains historical landmarks and cultural heritage.

Its like theyre super liberal in what they say but not what they do. That goes for the entire new England area really. Its why it always frustrates me seeing them always vote dem.

You’re 100% spot on.

White Democrat Bostonians are also some of the most racist people in this country. Just as bad as racist White Democrat Philadelphia. Which is just as corrupt as Boston.

I’ll never cheer for the Buckeyes like I will today. Hoosiers are fake posers and we are about to see why.

I guess the show is getting publicity because of the teenage sex angle it takes.


What about the show is good, in your opinion?

Yep. I lived in SWLa for eight years back in the 90s, worked with engineers from both schools but more so from A&M. I’ve been on the A&M campus two different times.

I can attest their cultures are very different and they really don’t like each other.

Really, your eagle eye hindsight gonna take you there. I watched UK as much as anyone last year and he seemed a good kid, he was injured early but he was showing up at those charity games and kid games with big positive smile and vibe.

When he got benched he was up clapping and cheering for his replacement. He seems like a good kid, he just wasn't as good of a basketball player as he was touted to be. But he never seemed like he had an ego and he was just happy to see his teammates do well, especially big Z(I really wish he would've stayed because he would've THRIVED in Pope's offense)

It's going to happen it's just a matter of when. The loss certainly won't be from a lack of preparation as we were used to seeing from CCC.

I honestly think UK and the Zags are 1/2 and its everyone else after that, maybe UCONN

Could be. Lot of basketball left to play but it’s shaping up to be a fun season.

Don’t understand the chest beating. Wow, look at me about the hiring of Pope. You had nothing to do with it and have nothing to do with what he’s doing as coach of UK. You had nothing to do with pearl, oats, or anyone else not coming here either.

Show me where I said I played a role in the hiring. Talk about bending a post to make yourself nice and comfy. You funny !

Pope, baby. My number 1 choice. Makes it so much sweeter knowing I wanted him. Bang !!! Enjoy your life the rest of the way since I wont see you !

At Florida
At Tennessee

Nothing special; this team is battle tested.

Cats won't be fazed.. just beaten, stomped, and left for dead.

Aike, I’d be curious to know what rating systems aside from yours you believe are most predictively accurate. Also, wasn’t there a composite site that listed your ratings alongside others? I thought it was Massey but I can’t find the same composite page there that I remember from before.

Massey Composite Index

I was included in this in previous seasons, but I haven’t been taking the time to publish my results recently.

To punt a bit, I would say that all models are basically different data points, so I think this composite method is a great way of looking at things.

As far as better or worse than mine, I optimize for the tournament in a way that most don’t, so I think mine is slightly better at predicting results in tournament games.

Also, lots of the early season models use a certain amount of guesswork. That has become more challenging with the flood of players transferring each season, imo.

For that reason, I think my model has a sweet spot around midseason heading into conference play. I have a better grasp of how good or bad some of the mid majors are - the ones who spend November/December on the road in hostile environments.

By around February, everyone kind of catches up. It’s hard to get much of an edge over Kenpom, or Sagarin, or Vegas by the time everyone is crunching only current season data.

Kentucky: 95
Western Kentucky: 71

Tiebreaker: 25

I don't believe the vince to Louisville part. The rest is believable.
