Teasdale

We have a lot of heroes but only 1 legend and that's Ray Brinzer. Heroes get remembered but legends never die.
Gebmo - please stick around and keep bringing the inteligence to the board that I lack 
This is Gebmo's post in bball form:Pish, been reading HR for years, you finally got me to post. I think you missed the point, and the point of these boards. I happen to be a PSU fan, and from Philly. You should hear sports talk radio in Philly sometime. Sixers, Eagles, Flyers, Phillies, and college sports. Insane people most of the time. Why do people care? Bunch of guys making millions, right, or just students, right? Well, they are our teams and our schools. No different in my mind than my wife loving the opera and orchestra, painful as that may be for me (since I have to go with her). We all have things we enjoy that make life better. For me it is sports, as it is for most on this and all boards.
In Iowa where you don’t have pro sports I can only imagine the Hawks are big. What is wrong with that? Your teams are college teams, so your players are…..students. That is why a teenager is being talked about. So are football recruits and others. That’s sports. What is the issue? As Chief mentioned, twitter is just life these days. Change is the norm. Personally, twitter just doesn’t do it for me so I let others search those things out, but it wasn’t about twitter, it was about the kid. I’d be willing to bet he doesn’t think it is a bad thing to be talked about.
I’ve been around a bit more than 46 years, and in my day all we had was evening news and newspapers and it could take weeks to find out simple things about your team (the things that go on behind the scenes). It was frustrating. Its great to be able to talk about our sports, find out info regularly (even if it turns out to be wrong), and to speculate. Sometimes that is half the fun. Poking fun at other teams, rubbing it in when it goes your way. Being a good loser (hopefully) when it doesn’t (unless it’s Dallas….no such thing as a poor loser in that case, anything goes).
No one is messed up on this board. I read this board every day and have for a long time because of what I learn, for the jokes and fun, but also because of the quality of people. Reading normally is a positive. Maybe I missed it, but I don’t remember hearing one bad word about Teasdale in the whole thread even when it was speculated that he may have changed his mind. It was just hope he comes here, but wish him well, and whatever is best for him is what we want, etc. That is what impressed me about the thread. Got nothing negative from it. That and other situations over time tell me all I need to know about most of the people here. Otherwise, why were you and I even here reading about this?
I would just quote Aaron Rodgers, “relax”. No issue here. Enjoy the season, the ups and downs, goods and bads, the debates. While its great to look back on a championship, for me its all about the journey (though I have to admit I have really enjoyed the recent championships….
Hope you can do the same. I’ll chalk yours up to a bad day. Look at it this way, at least you don’t have to root for the Sixers….
From a fellow Sixers fan, Send It In Gebmo!
And for the love of Gable, only one God!!!
But we're the Evil Empire here so maybe that explains the love for Empire Strikes Back. Cael just got the plans to the Deathstar...but we're rebuilding.
Here's a pro argument for the Empire for you Star Wars guys.

Jese. Glad I was able to bring Grebmo the Great out of hiding

George castanza won a contest too.
This was the greatest moment in Pitt Wrestling in the past 30 years.
Wait, you say that was basketball, not wrestling?
Exactly.
Threads like this make this cesspool worth the visit.
I'll give it a 9 for Historical reference, a 8 for easy to dance to ..........
but a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot for what is that all about?

The cruxt of it is................wait for it..................tweet, tweet, tweedlededee
That's what Twitter folks apparently do, they tweet. This song came to mind. Damn fine tune too!
Peace Out
Topics that had an abnormally high number of threads and posts on this board, off the top of my head:
Grothus...
Dylan Carrew is healthy and Spoons says he'll be a national champ.
Slaton is coming back but I'm not sure if he'll beat out Marion.
Destin McCauley was wearing a Hawkeye shirt in a picture.
The next Ballweg is supposed to be the most talented.
Moore or Clark, which one gives gives us the best chance to win now?
Topher is having an awesome red-shirt year and will really surprise some people.
I'd vote we keep Teasdale off this list.

Me thinks he's got a new screen name... You should be able to figure it out Pump.
This. I need a 10/10 AA and a 4 champ prediction for NCAAs right about now
I never think of the screen name switcharoo thing. If I did, folks would figure it out on the second post
But you could just take on a whole new persona ala Gerald Brovlovski.
I remember all of these - an 0'fer list for sure. I agree, this thread needs to die fast.
Lolololololololololololololololololol!!!! Those guys are genius.
Yea, I had to change my name. My computer crashed and I couldn't get my password back. I was curious if anybody actually missed me.... LOL
Carew and I are pretty good friends and still keep in touch so I guess I was a bit bias there.
This is for you AZ,
GMan: Champ and will bonus his way through the tournament.
Clark: BIG Question mark right now. Hoping he makes it back and wins it all
Carton: Like him a lot and probably should be ranked but rd. of 12 is our best hope here.
Sorensen: 2nd, still the 2nd best 149lber in the country.
Kemdawg: 3rd, he will take some lumps along the way, but in the end he finishes 3rd
The Bull: 4th, could be higher could be lower
Meyer: 4th, could be 1 spot higher or could be rd. of 12
Brooks: 4th, could be 1 spot higher or could be rd. of 12
Wilcke: NQ would be GREAT
Stoll: 3rd, could be 1 spot higher or lower.
Team: 2nd

8 in the top 4 is not a second place finish.
Cheers to that my good man!Yea, I had to change my name. My computer crashed and I couldn't get my password back. I was curious if anybody actually missed me.... LOL

You do realize what psu has going for them.
Soriano probably gets 2nd to The Machine.
Cortez is a Rd. Of 12 type guy.
Guilibon is a Rd of 12 type guy.
Rutherford gets 1st with LOTS of bonus pts.
Nolf gets 1st with LOTS of bonus pts.
Joseph is a lower AA to Rd of 12 type guy.
Rasheed is a Rd of 12 type guy
Nickal probably gets 2nd to Dean and gets some good bonus pts.
McCutchen is a lower AA type guy. Good lord 197 is pretty weak.
Nevils is probably wrestling Stoll for 3rd.
Not to mention Oky. State probably has 10 AA's right now. But I will say I am NOT all that concerned with fosu.
Iowa - 3 in finals and 7 AA
PSU- 4 in finals and 6 or 7 AA.
Iowa needs to bonus where it can and hope for a PSU upset, maybe Soriano, McCutchen or Joseph go down early and end of up with bad draw. If Brooks and Meyer can reach there potential we could have a great run in St. Louis.
Excited for the real competition and to see some top matchups. Especially PSU vs Iowa duel.
