O-M-G! Dickie was in top form for the X game yesterday, although that might depend on how you feel about him.

The Saluki-dawgs at Hinkle? Gotta break form for my age-old favs...



Roll damn Saluki-dawgs!

I might be in the minority, but I love me some Dickey Simpkins, #splash.

I didn't mind Dickey yesterday but totally ignored was the play calling of Eric Collins. His call on Kunkel's game winning basket was so emotional. I was watching the game at a sports bar and when that shot went in I went berserk. This league is awesome.

Damn. SIU is puttin' a whupping on Butler. Bulldogs can't buy a shot to fall.
35-21 with 2 mins left in the 1st half. Coach Jordan has his hands full for
coaching at the half. Go Bulldogs??

HALF: SIU 37, #Butler 24 Bulldogs scored 19 points in first 6 1/2 minutes,
then five in next 13 1/2.

Covid layoff, missing their point guard, no fans to cheer them on... worst possible situation for Butler and the Salukis are absolutely brutalizing the Bulldogs. Funny but Dickey’s not done any #splash exclamations but that’s sure as shit what Southern Illinois is doin

My guys, THE Xavier Muskies...are 8-0! Wow.
You really took my preseason predictions of 5th to heart. Luv ya, Muskies.
Roll Damn Xuperduper, DudeAnon, & the XU minions, ROLL!

Welcome back to reality fellas, all good things must come to an end. Those
millions of S&H Green Stamps won't cut it in Omaha. We buy our grits at Baker's Supermarkets, Inc.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%26H_Green_Stamps

However,

S&H started to go downhill in the 1970s and was eventually purchased by a holding company
which since 2000 has been offering "greenpoints.'' You can redeem your old green stamps one-to-one for greenpoints,
which can be used to get a gift card or gift certificate.

You can get the details at greenpoints.com.

S&H Green Stamps are no longer valid and we are no longer accepting them. They have no value.

Effective October 4, 2020, we are also no longer accepting or redeeming S&H greenpoints here.

OOPS! Guess you're SOL!

The bottom four looks like its becoming clearer (although we haven't seen Depaul yet).

Butler is going to struggle mightily this season early. First, their whole damn team had Covid. Everyone was shutdown for 21 days and didn't practice, lift, etc. Second, their best player is injured, Aaron Thompson is going to be out probably another week or so. Lastly, they a very young team, and have no depth. All of those things are going to be hard to overcome. They are going to take some lumps this season for sure.
