No Players at Presser

[Bomber36]

If the team is at the Hotel Palomar, according to their website all their rooms have either 2 queen beds or 1 king. No mention of twin or full beds. But it seems that basketball players should have king beds.

They sure don’t look like queens…could be the angle of the photo. Both standard queens and kings are only 80 inches long, but big enough for the tallest players to sleep comfortably diagonally.

Let him watch what is being consecrated here. And I want the people to watch what is going to be consecrated here. And I will bring my son down here, and he will watch.

Powerful thrusts filling the sultry night air

Best episode in the series.
Kobe reminds me of Cherry Blossom.

When you type a sentence, try using capital letters at the beginning of them. Or is that a Cincinnati thing? Oh yeah, proper names like “Hurley“ should also be capitalized .

If they have king beds it’s crazy that they didn’t save them for the players.

Hope Hurley goes nuclear

How is it possible they don’t treat all players exactly the same

 

[nadav]

Kobe, were you alive for Cinci’s last FF presser in 92? (Their only one in 60 years!)

 

[c29328]

Maybe the players were on the way but the same travel team from last night booked their bus to the arena?

 

[Samoo]

Don’t think your opinion is humble or objective

I'm pretty sure he doesn't think that either...

 

[James]

I know the team always share rooms on the road, is it possible clingan and maybe samson get king sizes on their own? Maybe he has the same set up as the kid from nc state. If he does NOT then thats insane

 

[UConnRock]

I think a lot of players would gladly accept an early morning arrival if they could get out of having to go through the hassle of a media day. I am sure the UConn players are more than happy to hang at the hotel and relax, or do whatever the coaches want them to do.

 

[nyhuskies13]

the media is what allows the game to be as popular as it is. pretty classless move from hurley in my very humble and objective opinion.

Focus a little more on Cincinnati reaching more than 1 Sweet 16 every 25 years

Do they have media obligations for the CIT?

 

[NJHoops]

Someone tell the annoying attention seeker this-

 

[BlueHen]

In my not so humble or objective opinion, if Hurley wants to use ‘us’ against ‘them’ this is a great way to do it.

Look at the pageantry! Focus on the pageantry…

 

[HooperScooper]

Someone tell the annoying attention seeker this-

The NCAA probably didn't want them to have a forum to bitch about how lame the NCAA is.

And it’s bad for grammar.

You are a total d bag.

skyline chili is low grade dog food

The most disgusting food that's unique to a city. The one time I had it the girl put a bib on me and I felt like I was eating something from Petco with cinnamon in it.

 

[Hunt for 7]

A full size bed measures 54 inches wide by 75 inches long, which is wider than a twin but narrower and shorter than a queen. DC measures 85 inches long. Do the math for everyone else. These beds are not adequate for a basketball team.

7’2” is actually 86 “. And as Hurley has mentioned he is probably close to 7’3” so 87”

Or, most importantly, at all relevant

And then they are like “ but the cheese tho…”

And all it is is shredded government cheese just dumped on top of the whole mess. Terrible texture terrible cheese no melt no nothing. When someone came up with the phrase related to eating saying “ I guess I’ll choke this down” I promise you that phrase was invented over a 3 way plate at skyline. You literally are choking it down. I’m gagging just reliving the experience typing this.

Yeah I had him at 7’1” in my head for some reason. He isn’t sleeping well on one of those beds.

 

[Kitaman]

...and nice long afternoon nap.

20 year olds take naps nowadays?

 

[GlastonTim]

Glad he took the high road in presser.

 

[AllHusky]

how's the Big 12 handling player access for this Final Four?

They are following Cincys lead, everyone doing the same thing as the Bearcats.

 

[husky8273]

none of the players from the schools were at today's press conferences

The other schools had locker room availability for media.

Eh. I'm an English/ History teacher and I don't even play grammar/ punctuation police. Unfair to judge someone's ideas by such things, I think, much as I try to improve them

 

[Bomber36]

Sleep diagonally

Not in a full sized bed. It’s only 85 inches diagonally and to use every inch you would have to sleep with your head touching the headboard. Still not big enough. A queen is close, a king is fine.

Guess I should have put an /s there. I was just doing it because I’m sick of his annoying trolling. I figured it would be obvious, since I’ve never corrected someones grammar before.
