These guys are college basketball players that are great in practice, but they can never seem to crack the game. I have given them great names in the past such as the Walk-On WhiteOut and the Bastard Sons of Bobby Buckets. These guys are not going to be playing professionally...

About MS
I am not a fan of multiple sclerosis. I have seen what it has done to my aunt and I don't like it. She is so far along that she cannot respond to MS treatment anymore. She is basically a vegetable, living in a nursing home and waiting to die. It is a sad story because my cousin, who is a like a brother to me, has never seen her walk.I cannot attest to an MS Diet, but we have done...

Huge Fan of Jeff Gordon
Author: Joseph SandovalI am the biggest Jeff Gordon fan ever. I am pulling for him to win the Nascar Sprint Cup. But sadly, no one else in my family is into Nascar like I am. In fact, even my friends don't understand. I have been watching Nascar satellite TV programming all by myself. There is no way that I am inviting anyone else over. Typically, they just make jokes and they...

Eastman's 99 system
I don't do any betting, but if you're going to lay down a few football wagers you might as well win. right? I mean, what's the point in betting if you plan on losing? I know that if I ever go to Vegas, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at the sports book. My all-time record in the Big Ten Bloggers' pick 'em challenge is one of the best in our group.There is a new system out there that...

Poker

Underdogs?
We're once again getting disrespected by arrogant Domers, but at least we can rest in the fact that the players themselves will take us seriously. See, I don't have a problem with Notre Dame as a team per se. The coaches, players, and administration approach the game the same way that the other 119 teams do. It is the majority of their fans that annoys the crap out of me...

TV time
It used to be that the Big Ten Network was offered only on Satellite packages like Direct TV here in Indianapolis, IN. It sucked too. See, I would be the first to get the service, but there was a giant building in my way tot eh south. When you compound that with the fact I had nothing to physically attach the satellite dish to, it made things very difficult. Fortunately,t here are...

Random Purdue news
Many of the NFL undrafted free agents signings were very kind to Purdue. Brandon King ended up with the Colts. Joey Elliott signed with the Eagles. Several other players signed contracts after missing out on the draft and will be battling for a roster spot once training camps begin. Personally, I like Elliott's chances to make a difference. I think he will land somewhere on a roster...

I have never played much golf in my life, but I can understand the joy of getting to spend a day outdoors on the links.Golf course signage comes...

March Madness
Well, March Madness may now officially suck for Purdue fans if Robbie Hummel is out with a torn ACL as some are speculating. That means just about the only joy we can take from this situation is through March Madness Picks. Perhaps Purdue can defy the odds somewhat and get through to the Final Four anyway.All the recent NCAA Tournament Projections have Purdue still as a number...
