[Robowe]

Was at baseball practice and just now saw the score.

What happened, total shit show or not as bad as it looked?

Uh, wow. Iowa coach Fran McCaffrey was just screaming at an official walking down a hallway of Value City Arena. "You cheating motherfucker! You're a fucking disgrace!"

Sounds like Fran needs a suspension

 

[Fryowa]

I hope we haven’t been looking at fools gold all season.

With all the down-to-the-wire games against not very good teams, it’s almost starting to look like it. There’s only about 5 or 6 points between us being where we’re at now, and where Illinois is.

Permanent suspension would be fine

 

[thedukeofearl]

Do we win at Nebraska on senior night?

Yes We Can

I've made that point all winter. Just how subtle the difference can be. And why it's important to win your share of close games.

 

[Northside Hawk]

Well, Greg Gard did what Fran wouldn't. He called a time out when he sensed a run coming. And now Wisconsin, who could have been down ten or twelve going into the locker room, is down four.

So I had more fun trying to corral 14 6th graders with cabin fever than I would have watching the game?

Come on BigD. You haven't thought for a second that this team was better than average this year. Don't start acting like you were duped now.

This team isn't fools gold. It was a team that really needed to make the tournament and they locked themselves in with 4 games to go.

Especially if you took them out to the lake and put augers and fishing rods in their hands.

 

[thedukeofearl]

We had OSU sideways until the Baer flagrant. Changed the entire course of the game.

That was IT

We broke a white board tonight. Ball got away from a kid and at first I got kinda mad, but then I thought to myself, “Who the hell puts a white board on the baseline wall in a high school gym?”

It wasnt there in the 90s when I was in school.

Haven’t been out in three weeks. We have so much snow everywhere that it’s hard enough just to get on the lake let alone fish.

 

[thedukeofearl]

He looks tired to me...lots of lazy passes, shots, etc. I thought the lazy pass to Baer leading to the Flagrant 1 was the turning point. I said to my wife at the time I think the game just got away from us.

That was certainly the turning point of the game

Prairie Du Chien, where I have many customer contacts, is an ice skating rink. The town, in general.

They're talking about bringing in National Guard troops to assist. Before Saturday's 1.5 inches of rain and Sundays solid freezup of everything they were already behind on snow removal, low on salt, etc.

 

[HuckFinn]

Who is this guy who quoted Fran’s outburst? Careful.

I have more than enough bluegill and crappie in the freezer to last me until open water. If you drive through NW Iowa anytime soon stop and I’ll send you home with some.

What does that have to do with anything?

If you’re implying the guy might not be telling the truth then come out and say so.

I follow his account and he’s anything but a shit stirrer.

I've been to Sioux Falls once. Very nice town.
