You're gonna drive back to Chicago after each game? Why not fly to Louisville or Cincy, stay with a Wildcat friend there and drive the shorter distance?Originally posted by PTI (pti):
Crazy as it sounds, we're pretty much going to make a run at this thing -- via Chicago (3 hours away). My *** isn't staying 30 minutes outside of town for $300/night in a gd Comfort Inn.
Direct flight to Chitown. Drive in for both games. Marcus.
(oh, and the cats better go the distance)

I mean, I really just don't like Ashley Judd. I don't give a **** if that ruffles any feathers.
Had entertained that thought as well. Still an option. Finding somewhere in Indy is, too. But.....marcus. Yeah, there were other factors, but marcus.Originally posted by Dennis Reynolds:

Yeah. Of course, Booker's slump has helped that out a lot as well.Originally posted by UnfrozenCatfanLawyer:
One thing GYERO should pat itself on the back for is that many - if not all - of us predicted after the Bahamas trip that Tyler Ulis would end up being a guy we simply can't keep off the court. So, good job, college basketballs.
Maybe, but I suspect that it would have turned out this way anyway. Ulis is just too damn smart and dependable. You put him out there and don't have to worry about anything. He's a security blanket.Originally posted by wcc31:

I said it wasn't a healthy perspective. I blame law school. It has conditioned me to view every single thing in life in this context: "How can this end poorly?"Originally posted by wcc31:
I'm just as nervous as anyone else, but if you really aren't/can't enjoy this season, what is wrong with you?
I thought that was Engineering school that taught you the "how can this end poorly" concept?Originally posted by UnfrozenCatfanLawyer:

I'm all for the confidence we've got going but all this Indy talk, specifically acting as if it is already a done deal, has me a little concerned.
I was talking about Geese- who is one of the nicer, more positive dudes from this crew in real life and a fairly "relaxed" guy to watch a big game with, as well. Just seems like he hasn't really taken to this entire season. I don't get it.Originally posted by UnfrozenCatfanLawyer:

Pretty much.Originally posted by UnfrozenCatfanLawyer:
These last few weeks have not been enjoyable in the least, if we're all being honest with ourselves. Every damn game has been stressful as hell. March Madness, at its core, represents misery - whether it's the misery of defeat or the misery of suffering through each game. This is probably not a healthy way to view things.
Was just about to post that. Didn't like the guy but that is a nice move.Originally posted by MaxPowerrr:
Plenty other things to say about Dean Smith, but this is pretty cool.
