    Would you rather?

    We would all love to finish first in the Big 12 this year. We would also love to see an end to Kansas' streak of buying enough players to win (or tie) for first. Would you rather finish in a tie with Kansas for first place, or tie with Kansas for second place, thus seeing an end to their streak?

    Question. Should a team that really isn't very good be allowed to reject an invitation to the NCAA tournament and apply to the NIT instead?

    Dream Scenario

    Big 12 tournament. ISU vs. Kansas. Cyclones up by 12. Our final posession. 10 seconds on the game clock, 5 seconds on the shot clock. Korie hands the ball to Elijah Johnson, points to the Kansas basket, and smiles. Even better if it's in the sweet sixteen.

    CyBookie oops

    What is the proper procedure for requesting a correction on a CyBookie event? Who needs to be contacted? What is a reasonable timeframe for a correction to be made? On last Saturday's ISU/Texas game the "under" was mistakenly paid instead of the "over". This was pointed out shortly after...

    Screwed Up Sayings

    The "sweating like a stuck pig" line in another thread got me to thinking about commonly messed up sayings. My wife does this all the time - she keeps telling me I should be writing them all down and put them in a book. Her latest: "No skin off my teeth" combining "no skin off my nose" with...

    Way Too Early Big 12 Prediction Thread

    Might as well add to all the other speculation. Will ISU win more than 4 conference games next year, exactly 4 (the McDermott norm), or less than 4?

    I wonder if

    I wonder if a guy has ever gone from the most popular to the least popular guy in town by saying only 2 words: North Carolina?

    Which would you rather have?

    Since my research shows that I am one of only three members who have not started a thread on HB, I figured it was my turn. Which would you rather have: 1). HB's signature on the dotted line. or 2). Convincing wins against Colorado and Missouri

    Credits

    After a series of unfortunate choices (5 consecutive losses - possible record??), my credit balance dropped from 125,000+ to 241. Over the next couple of days it bounced back and forth from 500 to 0 to 250 (no bets placed, no postings made). It finally seemed to stabilize at 501. I bet 100 on...
