Re: Homecoming 2015: 2/12, 2/13, 2/14 @ The Fabulous 40 Watt

Someone must have brought a bug to the party, because I've gone into full blown laryngitis/bronchitis. The Athens crud. This is what we don't tell new HC people about. It's the land of a thousand hugs but with the hugs come the germs. I'm fighting something off myself but not down for the count so ...

Re: Grateful Dead Core Four July3-5th Soldier Field

I really hope you score tickets but I'm interested to see if a pink slip sends you all ragey drinking binge or something. Still surviving. This could lead to a bender if the pink slip arrives.... I fear not getting tickets through this mail order and then shut out again with Ticketmaster. At that p...

I get the nostalgia angle


Totally being sarcastic. I like the colored envelopes but that's about it.

The conference realignments are what they are at this point. TC hit the nail on the head. Plan B definitely isn't that attractive in the Big Ten. Overall, I'm just excited to see things play out. PAC 12, Big 12, SEC and Big Ten all have a 4-5 headed monster now. An 8-team playoff would make my head ...

I wish the B1G East could trade away Rutgers, Maryland and Indiana somehow. No disrespect to those institutions but they devalue the conference for me.

Cutler's deal was essentially $54 million guaranteed and the escalater expire after 3. His cap hit this year was originally $23 million but they reduced it by a couple mil to sign Jared Allen.
