Also, I don't want to sound like an idiot (more than normal), but Daphne Zuniga? Who is she? Am I the only person who, if asked randomly who was the princess in Spaceballs, would have said, "Lorraine Bracco?"

then the exasperation in this dad’s voice and body language will be entirely relatable.

Saw at my local Costco that they were selling what looked to be a gift card for 2 iu football tickets for $80.

Not sure if anything else was included but interesting that it was there.

Former Hoosier Michael Earley looks to be named the next Head coach at Texas A&M.

No way they are allowing Biden to make actual important decisions for the country.

Biden staying, or going and being replaced by "______", what is your preference.

He was at AU when I was there. Greatest athlete God has ever created, even better person. I’ve seen him do otherworldly things that aren’t available on the net. It’s not IU related, but the board is a little slooooooow …

@Jim Coyle is running a promotion to snag more paid subscribers. If you're a regular here and enjoy whatever it is we've got going here, throw Jim a bone and subscribe. Looking at you, @mcmurtry66 .

and it lists 38 players that are currently on IU tentative roster. It did not have Conner Foley, Nick Mitchell, Josh Pyne, Brock Tibbitts, Luke Sinnard and of course the Portal Guys. I guess all these guys could come back but it sounds unlikely. I was surprised Josh Pyne's name not on that roster. I guess Mitchell must think he will be in Minor Leagues or elsewhere thus we picked up a couple of OF's to take his place.

An Airbus 380 is on its way across the Atlantic. It flies consistently at 800 km/h at 30,000 feet, when suddenly a Eurofighter with a Tempo Mach 2 appears.

The pilot of the fighter jet slows down, flies alongside the Airbus and greets the pilot of the passenger plane by radio: “Airbus, boring flight isn’t it? Now have a look here!”

He rolls his jet on its back, accelerates, breaks through the sound barrier, rises rapidly to a dizzying height, and then swoops down almost to sea level in a breathtaking dive. He loops back next to the Airbus and asks: “Well, how was that?”

The Airbus pilot answers: “Very impressive, but watch this!”

The jet pilot watches the Airbus, but nothing happens. It continues to fly straight, at the same speed. After 15 minutes, the Airbus pilot radios, “Well, how was that?

Confused, the jet pilot asks, “What did you do?”

The AirBus pilot laughs and says: “I got up, stretched my legs, walked to the back of the aircraft to use the washroom, then got a cup of coffee and a chocolate fudge pastry.”

The moral of the story is: When you’re young, speed and adrenaline seems to be great. But as you get older and wiser, you learn that comfort and peace are more important.

@BradStevens this is the golf exchange. You couldn’t write a better comedy skit.

Illegal just murdered two chic fil a workers. TWO CHIC FIL A WORKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let that sink in lefties. NOTHING is as sacrosanct in this country as chic fil a workers. the only thing that works in this country, and works flawlessly, is chic fil a. the workers are clean. don't smell like weed. run that parking lot line with german precision. Fing with chic fil a should not be a partisan issue. it should be at the very TOP of all that we hold dear and close. I

FIX THE BORDER. NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

I’d still vote for trump over all but Shapiro. Harris terrible. Newsom, Pritzker terrible. Whitmer another progressive. Insane during Covid.

So the Dem party has gone way left and for conservatives and moderates thinking this is going to be some opportunity to move to the center it’s not. It’s Trump vs Biden/progressives or Trump vs insertname/progressives. Sucks. Same shit. Progressives. So conservatives are in the same boat looking at candidates that are way too far left. And Dems are in the same boat looking at trump they hate. Nothing really has changed at this point. I’m done being excited over Biden’s poor performance. Time to get back to WHITEBOYSUMMER and a great weekend of games leading up to Monday’s US match on 4th of July week where all Americans should hope the US gets blown out by the Rat, Luis Suarez, and our friends from Uruguay

I am not trying to plug these guys, I don’t even know who they are. But I have been reading their “IU opponents summaries” articles.
So far it looks like our first two games are against weaker teams. If we are an improved team I believe we could win big twice. Perhaps score more than 30 and give up fewer than 10.
I assumed we would lose game three on the road at UCLA. But in just reading that article, we may have a much better chance at a W than I thought. Tough game- big school, road game, west coast time zone, long flight, etc. But rather than an old IU 40-3 loss we may have a chance to fly home 3-0.
Not sure when fall practice starts, but for those of us who still live close enough to tailgate (I am 5 states away) have fun.

Just got back a little bit ago. An amazing concert.

Almost-77-year-old Carlos can still bring it. Mesmerizing. He has to sit during most of the show, and moves about as well as Biden when he does get up, but that doesn’t impact his playing. Damn, he is just tremendous. See him while you still have the chance.

The percussion side will knock your fvckin’ socks off and pound them into next week. Carlos’s wife - 64-year-old Cindy Blackman - will leave you exhausted. Damn, she is just as tremendous.

Outside of The Allman Brothers this may have been the best concert I’ve been to.

We return you now to your regular late-night programming.

Trent Sisley and Braylon Mullins were selected for this event but we're unable to play. Braylon Mullins did show up and was a presence there just for coaches to talk to and interact with his fellow players. IU was also watching 6'9 Cathedral Sr. Brady Koehler who is long and has enormous potential. He's a little weak right now so playing thru contact is not his strong suit but that will come in time. He can put it on the floor very well and shoot it from 3 even better. His recruitment has recently picked up with offers from Stanford and a few other P5s but this is a kid (that if he doesn't get offered and recruited by IU now) they'll regret it and hope they can pull him in the transfer portal. He can space the floor extremely well and be a 3 or stretch 4.
I would have to imagine they were at least looking at Jeffersonville's 6'8 senior Tre Singleton. Here's another kid that they'll likely wish they had gotten in a few years. Tre is working on making his outside shot more consistent and the best part of his game right now is his footwork in the post. He finishes inside against that tries to check him down low. He also has extremely polished handles for someone his size.
A name for the future is Fishers sophomore Jason Gardner Jr. You may remember his father was the 1999 Mr. Basketball at North Central and Arizona Wildcat point guard for 4 years. Gardner just needs to get his shot more consistent. Right now his best asset is his passing and running the floor. He is a D1 athlete/ soon to be player and I would imagine that IU will jump in on him in the near the future.

I feel more optimistic this summer than last. I think IU has some perimeter guys who can score and shoot it decent. This time last year we were all hoping guys on the roster would get better over the summer and shoot it better. Nope

A lot of discussion about the Dem party's options going forward. Two other issues:

(1) We've had a lot of people in government and media saying all the talk about Biden's mental fitness was uncalled for, that Biden was as sharp as a 40 year old, that it was all a right-wing fake media and result of selective editing. A lot of people, until last night, believed this.

The people who knew Biden, had met with him, talked with him or others in the admin, knew this was all a lie. Not a misunderstanding, not a misinterpretation, a blatant lie. Will there be consequences? Will media personalities who pushed this "misinformation" and "disinformation" lose credibility? (Yes, the same thing happened 4 years ago with the pushing of the election fraud cases, etc. It happens on both sides).

(2) Biden's most egregious lie was this line, that I can only think was scripted:

Fact check: Biden suggests no troops died under his watch​

“The truth is I’m the only president this century that doesn’t have any this decade and any troops dying anywhere in the world like he did,” Biden said.

This is false.

The Defense Department confirmed that 13 U.S. service members were killed in a suicide bombing attack at Abbey Gate at the Kabul airport by a member of ISIS-K as the U.S. was leaving Afghanistan.

[The article omits the 3 who died in Jordan as a result of a drone attack in February of this year]


Biden received the bodies of the soldiers in both of these events. It's not something a person forgets. The last one was a mere 4 months ago:


He either chose to lie about this very grave subject or he forgot about it. I'm not sure which is more disqualifying for a president. His administration should apologize immediately to the families of those dead soldiers. I'm very surprised this isn't the main talking point today about just how far he is gone.
