Tyus Battle Reopens Recruiting....

...according to Zagsblog.com.

It appears as though the Syracuse Orangemen are involved.

It is the reoccurring scenarios like this that keep popping up that make me really feel dirty recruiting is very prevalent. I have no doubt money is changing hands when I see this happening so frequently. I also think that when a mouth piece, in this case the father, is so involved in the recruiting process, the dirtiness goes to a higher level.

Stupid Ass Cliches

I dont know why, but stupid sayings really chap my ass. There are so many of them. Which piss you off most?

"With all due respect". Always followed by a total lack of respect.

"Dont let the bed bugs bite". Seriously Clark.

"To each his own". What?

"A bird in the hand". Hopefully it shits on your fingers

"Break a leg". Why? You're mean.

"I'm pulling your leg". Why? Get off me.

"Water under the bridge." Yeah? What about it?

"Dressed to the nines". Where are these nines and what do they dress like?

"Kick the bucket", What for?

"Be on your P's and Q's". What about my R's and S's?

"Speak of the devil". I dont recall mentioning that asshole.

"Dont upset the apple cart". I prefer to upset the banana cart.

"I got a bone to pick". Cool.

"Get the monkey of my back". Actually a pet monkey would be pretty sweet.

"Nice guys finish last." Will I finish first if I kill you for saying that?

"Money is the root of all evil". Being poor sure sounds like heaven.

"Paint the town red". Off to Sherwin Williams!

"Sweating bullets". Really, where are the shell casings?

"Eat crow". Are those tasty?

"Chip on his shoulder." Doritos or Lay's?

"Thats neither here nor there". Well where is it then?

"Nose to the grindstone". Where do I find this stone?

"Let's bury the hatchet". In your head?

"Burning the midnight oil". Awesome, bro.

"I'm in Seventh Heaven". What happened to the first six?

"On the tip on my tongue". What, your mom's clit?

Some recruit calls

Just checking out some Twitter links. Not sure how accurate, just passing along info. Looks we're going heavy after wings and SG's and trying to create some Chicago buzz.

Since today was the first day a 2017 recruit could be called or texted.

We contacted the following people, at least from what I could find and what was reported:

Justin Smith 6 ft 6 from Chicago
Dylan Henderson 6 ft 4 from Chicago
Myles Douglas 6 ft 7 from fishes and loafs

OT: iPhone help

My phone, can't even tell you if it is an iPhone 4 or 5 at this point (I think it is a 5s?) finally cracked after a year and a half with no case. It is still working but there are several cracks and it is just annoying so I am going to get a new one. With that being said, what is the latest version I should be going for and is it money?

USWNT

Anyone else have trouble rooting for this team?

Hope Solo is a criminal. While hammered, she beat the sh*t out of her sister/nephew and then threatened cops while resisting arrest. No penalty.

Seems like an eerily similar situation to Penn State's scandal. Looking the other way for money and pride. Solo should be held to a higher standard when wearing the red white and blue. As far as I'm concerned, Solo in goal is a ringing endorsement for domestic violence as long as you're famous.

I'm sure I'll get shredded for that, but it's just how I feel when I hear these local nuts supporting this knucklehead.

Jay Wright Kicking Butt In Best Big East Coach Poll

I actually saw this posted on Facebook by VUHoops.com, but one of Xavier's sites had a poll and it's not even close. As of right now Jay has 76 votes with 82% of the vote. The next closest coach has 7 votes with 8% of the vote. I know it's not an overwhelming amount of votes, but the votes are overwhelmingly in Jay's favor. It just goes to show you how much people respect our coach and our program.

Game of Thrones

good season so far, between the Sparrows and Sons of Harpy the season has taken a nice turn from most of the politics. Cersei is going to kill all of the Tyrells and im anxious to see Tyrion meet Daenerys.

Stannis has become more interesting and Jon Snow continues to become the best character.

Any thoughts on whats to come? the Sansa littlefinger thing is weird.

Brunson and Paschall at U-19 Tryouts

Couple of tweets and photos from over the weekend at the USA Basketball U-19 tryouts.

PGs- Jalen Brunson stood out by not standing out. Controls pace so well. Related: Fordham-to-Nova transfer Eric Paschall really good player.


Reid Forgrave‏@ReidForgrave 20h20 hours ago

Villanova fans gotta be thrilled to have Jalen Brunson coming. Such a smart player, such a great fit. #USABasketball

Stanley Cup Finals

An awesome series thus far. Never been more than a one goal lead for either team at this point. After game 1 I thought Chicago in five. After game 3 it looked like Tampa in 5.

I vastly underestimated this Tampa team. Perhaps it's a just a bad matchup for the Hawks, but I thought they would neutralize the attack more. The defense has made some bone headed plays by Chicago, Crow was awful in games 2-3, and Kaner hasn't been able to do much. Q ahead shifted around the lines a ton, and probably more than I would like, but if he can find a combo that can get results out of Kaner and Sharpy I think Cgicago takes the edge. Cannot wait for Game 5.
