    what event is on your bucket list?

    Been to quite a few IU basketball games in the late 70's through the 90's. Was at the IU/Purdue game which turned out to be RMK's last game coaching at AH. I was in attendance at the 1974 NCAA Mideast Regional at the Hulman Center in Terre Haute. Three rows off the floor on the mid-stripe...

    what event is on your bucket list?

    I was fortunate to have had my name selected in the lottery to purchase 4 tickets for the 1991 Final Four in Indy. After IU lost to Kansas, I answered an ad in the Indy Star, drove to Indy and sold them to some shady character who looked like he could've been an actor on "The Sopranos." The...

    Indiana State Starting Five Enter Portal . . .

    The long-awaited casino opened 5 days ago here in Terrible Hole. "Sin City" is resurrected! I live just two miles away and I'm afraid that will be much too convenient. The nasty smell you mentioned came from the sewage disposal plant located southwest of the city near the river and combined with...

    CBS and Final Four Coverage

    For the sake of nostalgia? Meh...I can agree with you there, I guess. And I will admit that he didn't seem to be as annoying with his assessment (somewhat) this year as I've noticed in the past, but that said, I tend to apply the "mute" apporoach quite often😉

    CBS and Final Four Coverage

    And we still can't dodge Raftery. I'm sorry, but with the "kiss" and "puppies" references, he just grates on my last nerve. My suggestion to the "Rafterman" would be to "get those puppies organized" and get the Hell out of here🤣

    2024 March Madness Bracket Challenge Invite (are you in?)

    Thank you, again, IUclover for your efforts in organizing the contest and congrats to the winners. As bad as I am in selecting winners, I'll donate to the cause next year. I wanted to contact you about using my PayPal account (I don't use it a lot) to send cash, but somehow, a security problem...

    Half the national nightmare is over

    Houston just laid an egg last night and Shead going down with the ankle injury didn't help their chances. But they still had plenty of opportunities. There were so many offensive deep rebounds that went in Duke's favor and they took advantage of them. Illinois is on fire, but I just can't see...

    Half the national nightmare is over

    Right! It's not good. As a Cubs fan for nearly 65 years, I'm beginning to understand the anxiety and uneasy anticipation that my Cards buddies experienced leading up to the Cubs finally getting "in" the WS, then winning it. It's 2024....an election year, as was 2016 when the Cubs won. It's the...

    watching my 1st Indiana St game since

    He certainly was. Athletic, smooth, nice shooter.

    watching my 1st Indiana St game since

    I sure do! Horrible. Former Terre Haute South Brave, Michael Joyner, was one of the players aboard that flight. Yes. Sadly, it did impact the state.

    watching my 1st Indiana St game since

    Wesleyan was quite impressive. Great atmosphere in there. From around '63 through '68, Indiana State had some really good teams. I remember when they were Indiana State Teachers College, but I'm a fossil. My memory is foggy, but I think it was in '64 or '65 when both ISU and Evansville were...

    watching my 1st Indiana St game since

    I loved driving down to Evansville to the old Roberts Memorial Stadium during the days of the "one" class boys high school tournament. I always followed Terre Haute North and South to the semi-state. That building was always packed with fans of Vincennes, Washington, Jeffersonville, New Albany...

    watching my 1st Indiana St game since

    I live in Terre Haute, Kurt and had season tickets during the Bird years. Amazing player! The Hulman Center seats 9,000 and that place is loud, electric and rockin'.....when the Sycamores are "good." And that is this year, obviously. That is a very good hustling well-coached team who plays...

    2024 March Madness Bracket Challenge Invite (are you in?)

    After I looked at it, again, I may have submitted just 3, but you can just use "Elusive Hump" and "Hoosiers are MIA." I think the one with the long ESPN number (2 picks) is the other one. Sorry for the confusion.

    2024 March Madness Bracket Challenge Invite (are you in?)

    I think that I may have also accidently submitted two duplicate brackets. Like Cav, I could not delete them. Doesn't really matter. I'm not a threat to win. As Ollie said in Hoosiers...."I'm not no good."😥 And thank you for organizing this, again, clover.

    I hear ya' man! Last night could make a fan want to stop watching basketball forever.
