Cali? I thought you only operated with those who'll send you to Hawaii. I confess to a nostalgia factor interfering with a normal assessment of HF. I got a great buzz taking down some of their stuff (mostly Edward, I think) for the first time about five years ago, when I burned the better...

Just stopped by Hill Farmstead last weekend. Such good stuff. Will you challenge me to a fist fight if I say that Focal Banger might be better than Heady Topper?

My summer visits to the board are infrequent, but I couldn't stay silent on this occasion. Igor was an expert provocateur. Overstepped the line often, but only drew me out a couple of times. Added great flavor to the board. His fights with the various versions of Tristan were epic, and I...

You want to smile? Just go to 27:45 for setup/flow and watch Dion do his thing at about 28:00. One of our mainstays once posted a note about that shot and simply said, "Glory be." That's the truth.

.500 IS STILL POSSIBLE

OMG thank you and welcome back. I’ll take the 4 discrepancy every time if you will start a new residency. This was such a great reminder of your prior masterworks. Please keep them coming if you can.

The unsweetest tea of all.

THREADS???

So sorry to hear about this. I'm pretty far away from Syracuse but am ready to help as I can, like the others. And like Tomcat, I hope Dino just fled, and that he strides back into your life soon. I don't know if you're a rising 2L or 3L, but if there's any silver lining, at least this...

I am very, very grateful to you right now.

Never, EVER say the F-word again.

A Pontiac Bonneville. I'm surprised the bottom didn't drop out of our recruiting right there and then.

You are the man, Steve. Thank you for your years and years of heroic dedication. I love your posts.

Pfft. For me, none of this even remotely compares to the 1991 loss to the Richmond Spiders--then the first-ever #15 beating a #2 seed. (Thank you so very much, 2018 Virginia Cavaliers.)

Anything associated with CurtB threatening to rip off people's heads with a nine-iron or baseball bat or other deadly weapon must be on the list. Our own board's meet-me-in-Temecula moments. CuseHulk hulking out never failed to entertain. Mantonio always won on the effort scale. Shaky...

I've been around this form in its many guises for a long time, and you've never failed to make this board a better place. Thanks a million for everything, man.

Heel, face, early heel advantage, heel gloating, and then Karmic vengeance. This has got everything you need in 35 seconds.

I will never forget that moon shot by Dion. I jumped up in my living room and started howling.

16-12 and 3+ to be delved.

Right there with you this year. And last year. And the year before that. The struggle is real, my friend.

I don't say it enough, but our whole community owes you a debt of gratitude for your heroics. Thank you, Steve.

Salt City 74 Beantown 67 Mark it down.

This never, ever gets old. Thank you for resurrecting this.

CTO is an absolute legend, and she has every reason to be so. There's no way to chronicle the number of lives that she's improved in her wide-ranging journey. May this and many more excellent birthdays await you, Saint Joyce.

This is good stuff--but I'm just happy to see you resurfacing here in our home court, Dick. Happy holidays and many happy returns to you and yours. Here's hoping you can make some return visits in the near-ish future. I--and I think we--miss having you around.

Here's to the moderators and our site patrons. Old grouchy people like me might complain that "It ain't like it used to be," but this is a wonderful home for our fan base to have on the web. THANK YOU.

Enjoyed this post and its optimism, but the Better Off Dead reference elevated it to truly elite status. Good show, sir. Good show, I say.

Love this story. Sincere condolences to you and your family, nyc.

Not a huuuge fan of these limp last few performances, but with the right kind of encouragement and stimulation, he might stiffen up in there and give us a chance down low. Yearning for the days of Lucious Pusey.

He seems to have the potential antidote to shaky potatoes. Let's just be optimistic and call it #stablepotatoes. Hope for the future.

Thanks, Joyce! We'll be in Rome and Florence next summer for a couple of days each. Love hearing the report and the early word of team cohesion and talent. Div. II competition or not, I'm starting to look at this squad as one that could really surprise. In a good way, that is. Glad you...

I can stomach the $30 for a month--but I can't watch in the middle of the work day. Does anyone know if an archived version will be watchable afterwards? Thank you!

Right. Roosevelt Bowie says hello.

This. Congrats on the big move, and enjoy the new digs! Maybe one of these days, we'll meet up. I missed my chance with TexanMark while he was just down the road in San Antonio, but hope springs eternal.

But did you get the combo deal? Footlong, chips, and drink ain't no joke.

Slow down. Jerami is still growing.

I was thinking the same thing—both about Joyce’s great writeup, and about how much I’ve thought about going and still want to. If cuseinseattle can get the guy in his profile pic as his +1 and then let me sit at the same table, that’ll seal the deal. I’ll bring Tristan, or CurtB.

With you opening by reflecting on Kelly being one of the most special people you've ever known, I'm compelled to come out of the lurker shadows and offer my thoughts for just a minute. I never had the good fortune of meeting Kelly, but I have met you, and you're my point of focus here. This is...

Texas Tech is a runaway winner for my rooting interests. MSU's had plenty of prior successes, and there's that horrible Olympic doctor scandal they're currently facing. And I'll admit that I'm still bitter about Morris Peterson. But I've got no beef with Izzo, nor with his current players...

Patience has already run out for many here in Austin--including some very influential Texas Exes. I'll still renew my season tickets next year to create the daddy/daughter date night opportunities, but there's plenty of clamoring around here for shakamustgo and Chris Beard. The biggest problem...

He's got about the same attitude of gratitude as Homer Simpson.

It almost seemed like Huggins was drugged or something when he came to Austin this season. I sat immediately behind the bench (friend/neighbor's tickets), and while he had a few choice (and hilarious) things to say, he was very sedate compared to prior years. It may also be because they're...

Dang. Hadn't seen that before. So good. Thanks, Cherie.

Joel Mareiniss was hosting Bowling for Dollars on the local NBC affiliate (then WSYR, I think) in the late 1970s/early 1980s, and my old man was a contestant one evening. Like any proud Syracusan, he was in a bowling league and knew how to get after his beer. He was a real man of the people--a...

Truly incredible. Saw it last night and it was jaw-dropping. GMAC says hello.

Thanks as always, man. As a far-flung townie-in-exile, I appreciate these recaps immensely. You are a legend.

Really sorry for your loss, Pearl. Thanks for posting this. You did the right thing reaching out to the community. Isolation, especially at a time like this, is a profoundly terrible thing. Wishing you peace and strength in the weeks and months ahead.

As Joyce says, she went way back through the history of various boards that our nutty little community has occupied--originally as AndreaCG, I think--and she always had a special place in her heart for the hoops team, with a passion and charming willingness to stick by her opinions even in the...

No...make that Quaker State.

You, sir, are a credit to Cuse Nation and a hero to us all. Thank you, as always, for your exemplary work.
