Around SBN: Super Bowl XLVI: Eli Manning And The Meaning Of 'Elite'

Hey, It's A Basketball Open Thread!

No, it's not on television.  Yes, you have to pay $2.99 for the BTN's apparently awful video feed.  But don't despair, you can listen to the student broadcast for free.  Click on the ComRadio logo at the top of the page for the audio.  Game starts at 7:35 p.m.

It may be my old computer

But the CommRadio link didn’t work for me. I was able to get it on ESPN radio in the Pgh area though. I guess there wasn’t any HS football to take it off the air for on a Monday nite.

Oh my GOD

I was warned about the stream quality but I cannot emphasize the amount of pain it is to try to watch. I have seen no more than 4 shots for both teams where you actually watch the shot go up and see what happens. I could handle just the audio that I PAID $3 for, but is is just as laggy. I have a good CPU and it is stopping every 2-4 seconds. I am going to go gouge my eyes out now. There that is better, here is a self portrait.

And you could just see Frazier blowing past people. If he can keep that up (and lets be honest, even as good as the Big Ten should be this year, they’re big and slow; on the other side, yes, I know we’re 2 games in), but our backcourt should be FUN to watch this year.

Dammit!

I forgot my last Bob Morris tidbit…
The Dollar Sign (“$”) was in common use among private merchants during the middle of the 18th century. It referred to the Spanish Milled Dollar, which predated the U.S. Dollar. Morris was the first to use that symbol in official documents and in official communications with Oliver Pollock. Much later it was used as the symbol for the U.S. Dollar, even though that currency was only loosely based on the Spanish coin.

Thoughts

-Timmy finally took his shots and I’ll be damned, they fell. More importantly he ran the point efficiently. and probably got more minutes there than Battle. If he keeps playing loose, I like what he can do. I think we have the potential to be deeper at the 1 and 2 spots this year, which may lead to Babb and Woodyard getting time at the 3 which ain’t a bad idea at all.

-Another effective night for Mr. Brooks.

-Wish I’d seen a little more of Jones.

-Overall, I’m not particularly impressed with any forwards but Brooks and Sasa.
