I wouldn't trust anything Sister Jean says after she sold me her '97 Miata, which she claimed had only 15,000 miles highway miles on it driven by the proverbial "little old lady"; i.e. herself.

Turns out Sister Jean rolled back the odometer 100,000 miles and also "forgot" to tell me about the flood damage and salvage title...

Yeah, anyone know why Kirby didn't start second half or for that matter get any playing time in second half.
It had to be an injury or the dog house.

The turnout was pathetic. Are students required to pay for tickets? If they are, that policy should be changed. Considering the cost of tuition etc., BB tickets should be free.

Not sure, but Porter looked pretty disgusted with his reverse layup attempt. I feel like we are going to need 10-15 minutes per game out of him, especially while Donte is out.

WELL !! My amateur opinion is that Kirby , with our new fast paced style MUST block out and board--Not doing it as far as I can see. Porter cannot at this stage have a DOG HOUSE--This team is TOO good and too focused for that. If he practices well, he will play. We could use his height BUT seemingly are getting along pretty well sans it .

If we shoot well--last evening we did NOT early-- we will beat most of our schedule. Our D was not so hot either against Norfolk. BUT that is what pre-Conf is all about-- WE won going away !! Big difference from years gone by mostly

Hey Swella,
That picture you posted reminded me that back about 1948, Bob Hope came up with the line that LSMFT meant "Lord save me from Truman." Beside me, Brot is probably the only other one on the site that would remember that.

YUP !! I do remember--Thaks for the Memories !!! OOPS !! Bob and Bing !! I also remember Jackerris and his famous hook shots--either hand Also Hank B , Claude Passeau and the 45 CUBs who lost to Rudy York and Les Tigres !!

But this year's RAMBLERS have chance a big things as well IF they keep going !!

RUN RAMBLERS !! BTW if this good stuff keeps up we will soon Call them THE RUNNIN' RAMBLERS !!
