    Anyone else have a baby today during the game?

    We’re doing a homebirth. She goes into labor at around 11:40 am. Midwife arrives and starts setting up shop in the bedroom. “I was thinking that the living room might be more ideal for a birth” “Really? This room seems quieter and more peaceful” “She won’t like the quiet. Nor the peace” We set...

    On the Ground: Virginia Tech Rivalry

    So I recently moved to central Virginia. The heart of Hokie Country. Nevertheless, I made friends quickly as my neighbor complained about the height of my grass. ^Neighbor^ I'm a reasonable guy. Nobody wants to be that person who rocks the boat or anything. So I acquiesced and cut...

    FYI (in regards to Dion contract)

    Roberson started over Dion because he couldn't be counted on to be a bench scorer. When the games were on the line, Dion was in. There's a reason. When focused, he can play well on both ends of the court. Straw man. The question was whether Dion not looking good alongside LeBron was an...

    FYI (in regards to Dion contract)

    So the mantra is: This is my opinion and I have stats. You have none. <Stats given> I don't like your stats. This guy is too old. This guy is too young. This guy is a gunner. These stats don't count. Other than these 14 people who LeBron played with, LeBron makes all his teammates look...

    FYI (in regards to Dion contract)

    Shaq and Boozer are as relevant as anyone else. Shaq was coming off of a renaissance season in Phoenix before coming to Cleveland. There are 14 players that I listed that refuted the notion that it is easy to look good alongside of LeBron. An eclectic mix of young, old, prime and not-prime...

    Precisely. Each one of those players either looked better before LeBron or after LeBron, but not with him. It's not just Dion, even though some would like to think it so.

    FYI (in regards to Dion contract)

    Random stats: When Kyrie went down for almost 3 weeks in March, 2014, Dion averaged 22 points, 5.1 assists, 3.1 rebounds. The team went 4-4 over that stretch (Cavs were 33-49 for the year). This was the point where people on this forum said that the Cavs played better with Dion than Kyrie...

    FYI (in regards to Dion contract)

    I think the most disturbing part of this is how many Syracuse fans are relishing the fact that Dion got a terrible contract. And they all happen to be LeBron fans. Jeez give it a rest already. He complained about getting the ball one time and ended up getting traded. Let it go.

    If I own the Bengals, the coach is fired today.

    It kind of goes back to one of the old hypotheticals on this board: Would you take 9 years of sanctions for one National Championship. The Bengals ran a clean ship for about 15 years. They also didn't make the playoffs for that span.

    The ejection is open to the referees. That's why I said Shazier could have been ejected. Yes, if the Bengals are 1st and 10 from the 10, they do score. Yes, Burfict makes it a point to drive Roethlisberger into the ground. No, he probably doesn't spear Brown into the ground, because like I...

    The non-call on that changed the entire course of the game. The Bengals starting running back is concussed and taken off of the field, never to return. They SHOULD have had 1st and 10 from the 10 yard line, almost guaranteeing either a touchdown or a field goal. The guy committing the...

    I feel like when most teams get sacked with no timeouts and are scrambling to the line of scrimmage to quickly get a play off, they generally don't complete touchdown passes. What generally happens is: They get sacked again Illegal procedure/false start penalty They complete a dump off throw...
