Yesterday on KY’s fan board under the title: The five blue blood programs and their current head coaching career winning percentages (no surprise, Pope is dead last). I guess poster Son_Of_Saul has spoken … we are NOT a blue blood!

Welp, last night felt like 16,000 voted for Hartford/PBA. All game long.

Meh, things get pretty dumb around here. Threatening to punch ruffruff in the face for posting on the BY struck me as pretty dumb. As did doubling down after being called out and saying “I will definitely meet him ANY TIME ANY PLACE”. Just having some fun on a snow day …

I’ve done a rubber paddle modification on three or four snowblowers (google it, they sell kits and there are hundreds of links). It scrapes the snow off of the inside of your barrel and throws it much better. Especially on my older Ariens, the improvement was amazing. My blower mows thru heavy...

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “station work”, but nobody would ever read Building Thinking Classrooms and boil it down to station work. Lots of subtle yet deliberate teacher moves that get students working, communicating, sharing within and across groups. Makes me wonder … was it...

Great book, great ideas and discussion on how to implement it and why it works … I do a fair amount of group learning in class (maybe weekly but never graded group projects). But man, when a class is disinterested, lacking prerequisite skills and/or intellectual curiosity it can be tough...

I feel like you are playing the role of Herb Brooks - trying to united all of the BY against a common enemy that is YOU - a fair-weather fan at best! You missed the game because it was V-day and it was lowly GTown at Gampel???? While the rest of us planned our weekend around the game? Each...

Some members of this board heap so much praise upon Pitino. Yuck. I’ll take Hurley and the way he runs it. We get a few guys to come back, we sprinkle in a few transfers, we play well in March and April, we don’t feel like we are one donor away from blowing up our NIL. Sure we can’t inbound...

Maybe true, but stating this right after the Creighton game is comically bad timing. Reed didn’t play particularly well, Reibe played real well, the smaller fellas were scoring and rebounding, and we won by 30 pts.

Plenty of firepower off of our bench? Here’s our bench production (in pts) from the last 5 games …6, 8, 8, 12, 3 I hope you are right!

I saw a head to the shoulder. BM reaching in, incidental contact. Going frame-by-frame, Villanova guy tried pretty hard to twist away to avoid contact.

If all games were that fun and competitive, I’d say we’re in the right conference.

“Head games” has a negative connotation. Just ask Foreigner.

On the lighter side … bowling. I liked keeping score by hand. It got me more involved in the game. Computer based solitaire/cards. Playing with a deck of 52 cards taught you a lot. Today most high school students can’t shuffle, and I can’t even give probability questions in math class based on...
