you forgot purdue cal ;)

a3, never get tired of looking at that map.  hats off.

Except it angers me because I deleted the svg of it and can't edit it :(

Also, I would think Brown Mackie would be on HL's radar before PCC... Heard they're building a new 6,000 seat arena.

Belmont officially joined the Ohio Valley on July 1, 2012. Just don't tell Butler it's too soon to switch conferences. Maybe switching conferences before you become too attached and make it harder to leave is the way to go.

Moving from the A10 to the New Big East is a little different money-wise than jumping between mid major conferences. The Butler switch netted them $$$. A move from the OVC would likely result in early exit penalties.

in case anyone thought i would comment on jordan aaron's night tonight, i am not going to. 

i might comment on how i was actually hoping for ASU to win--not for Richie, but so that Michigan could be the one to send them home :)

I see what you did there. The old "no comment" comment.  ;)

If you're accusing me of using the ancient rhetorical trope of praeteritio, then you're wrong.

That would be more like,
"I'm not going to comment on all the reports of Sen. Kennedy being a lecher and a drunk.  I'm not even going to bring up the fact that my opponent is the ONLY politician with a Confirmed Kill in the War On Women.  Instead, I'd like to talk about the issues..."

THAT would be praeteritio. :)

Uh, he was almost perfect:  1-15 FGs, 0-7 3pt.FGs.  Spoiled it with 4-4 on FTs.  (In case any readers didn't get the memo.)

Yep, exactly what I was thinking---that word "praeteritio" was on the tip of my tongue as I was typing that response. As I'm sure most of the other posters were thinking of the word "praeteritio" when the read my response. What other word could I have been thinking of?

Certainly no other, on a board this erudite, I'm sure.

The Horizon is now officially done.  WSU loses by 2 to Ohio, as did CSU.   :(
