Not buying it either, but...
From ESPN.com:
Iowa State coach and former NBA shooting guard Fred Hoiberg has had Minnesota and Golden State show interest in him in recent weeks, and now that Steve Kerr chose the Bay Area over New York the Knicks are reportedly considering Hoiberg as well...
A buddy of mine that moved to Nebraska said that you see a bunch of "10's" walking around. By that he means a skinny guy that is married to a large woman, which together, they form the number 10. I laughed about that for quite awhile!
How about the 1907 game that both teams think they won? Both schools still claim victory.

What's worked for me in the past is to spray it heavy with thick Trimec (double what it says on the bottle), wait a week, mow it off to the ground, and spray it with Trimec again.
Here's Lime Springs, Iowa, north of New Hampton, near the MN border:
I drove by this for the first time several years ago and thought that there should be a competition between the two. :)
Your grandpa is one of the nicest men alive! I just ran into him a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy him for as long as you can. I never knew how much I'd miss my grandparents until I lost them.

You hit the nail on the head with the double round-robin. Wisconsin, for example...
If we're talking about the tournament, the SEC is the best. Finally lost a game (their 4th place team) last night and by 2 points to the Big Ten champ. No one is going to argue that they are the best conference. You can't use the tournament to judge the best conference. I'd say the same if...
I'll bet you 2 plane tickets I'm not a troll. :spinny: Sorry if there's something I've said that makes me come off that way. I'm new to this whole message board thing. Not sure about the "lingo", or whatever, yet.
Well, they were a lot cheaper that way. Took a shot and lost. Really thought we'd win. I did get my tickets sold...in 18 minutes and at face value. I'll call a ticket agent (or whatever they're called) later today to see if I can push back the date or rebook my flight or what my options are...
It's a thought, but my heart wouldn't be in it and I'd rather be able to save the money instead. Do you want a vacation to watch some basketball? :smile:
