Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Isn't Up To Speed On Jeremy Lin, 'Linning'

Open Thread: FIRE ED HIGHTOWER/MAACO FIXED MY CAR!

Tonight from Las Vegas at 9:00 PM: Oregon State Beavers and Brigham Young Cougars in the MAACO Something Or Other Bowl

Meanwhile, Ed Hightower is doing his best to kill the game between Texas and Michigan State (ESPN2). It's bad enough that MSU turns the ball over BUT HIGHTOWER SUCKS SO BAD. Bill Raftery would be railing against all the nickles and dimes and with good reason. I've counted 5 or 6 instances.

See you at 9.

Texas is the Pitt of the Midwest

Always good, but never as good as people think they are.

Another thing they have in common...

I’ve seen Pitt games and I’ve seen Texas basketball games and they’re both bandwagon fans.

Lost Fresno with 34

But I think everyone did. I checked the group and everyone has one loss, so the standings just reflect who had Fresno lower on their confidence.

Say what you want about IU

They back the hell out of that team despite Sampson absolutely screwing them. It doesn’t matter how much they suck, those people fill the building and they get loud. That team won’t be down for long.

I'm not saying they'll be down for an extended period.

That would be an insane thought. But they suck some ass for now.

Also, they screwed themselves with Sampson. They knew the kind of guy he was but they and their hungry fans thought “Kelvin’s a new guy. He’s changed.” They got what they deserved.

Funny Story

I did a college visit there, and on the way out of town, I stopped at Steve and Barry’s in Bloomington and they were selling “Sampsonite” novelty tshirts for $1.00. I bought 5.
