  1. A Discovery of Witches may be the best TV series I have ever seen. The story lines, acting, cinematography, costumes, settings , etc., were magnificent. Here is what rottentomatoes has to say about it. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/a_discovery_of_witches
  2. Great advice ABW! When the market goes red, like it will because of the Russian crap, follow the advice of Warren Buffett and go buy you an ice cream cone to take your mind off the market. I am heavily invested in stocks, but under no circumstances do I try to time the market. I usually keep some spare cash on hand to buy on the dip.
  3. It’s not that simple. Look at the info in the link below, re: seeding and tie-breakers. The formula gets complicated and all of the possible scenarios cannot be determined at this point, even if there is a three way tie for the regular season championship. I can see where it is possible that seeding could be determined by coin flips. http://a.espncdn.com/sec/media/2021/SEC Basketball Champion and Tournament Seeding.pdf
  4. Incorrect. There are no tie/breakers in SEC BB. If three teams finish with three losses, all three would be co-champions.
  5. Under no circumstances will the BOT be meeting with the players re: the Harsin matter. It appears that some folks do not know about AU coming close to losing its accreditation with SACS a number of years ago because of meddling BOT members. The President of AU will be making the decision on Harsin. Who the President would like to talk with is up to him.
  6. It has become apparent to me that some insiders have lost their objectivity and have become agenda driven. I find that very disappointing and very cabal like.
  7. It is clear that Cal is feeling the heat. Ky forums continually trash him. Cal is just whining, like his fan base.
  8. I am starting to think that the GOBs and their connected minions are making a concerted effort to get rid of Harsin. Another thing. During the season, tons of folks were fed up with Mason’s defense and wanted him gone. Now that he is supposedly leaving, many of those same folks are blasting Harsin for Mason leaving. Weird I was never impressed with Mason’s defense, but the UA game made me question my opinion for about 59 minutes. However, when the chips were down with about 1 minute to go in the game, the D was just another failure. I will admit that the optics of Mason leaving are not good, but something needed to change on the D.
  9. The kid entered the portal in December and Chiz wasn’t hired until Jan 8.
  10. @JwgreDeux, I always appreciate your informed analyses! Thanks.
  11. I assume yellow font should have been used. Both coaches (Chiz and Tub) were paid off long ago. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/colleges/gene-chizik-gone-but-not-forgotten-by-auburns-payroll-department/2012/11/26/f477fd4a-37e4-11e2-8a97-363b0f9a0ab3_story.html
  12. Exorbitant NIL deals are not sustainable. The newness of the NIL landscape will chill and deep pockets will cut back on the payments. NIL is here to stay, but not in its present form.
  13. Brooks Brothers for suits, blazers, dress shirts, casual pants, etc. Also Joseph A Banks for suits and blazers. I prefer BB.
  14. I am convinced that if we had Calzada we would have beaten MSU, SCAR, UA and HOU, perhaps even PSU. I don’t think he will be a Heisman candidate, but I do think he will be above average.
  15. It is interesting, to say the least, that schools are clearly violating the NCAA NIL rules, and the NCAA is just shrugging its shoulders. The court ruling that allows NIL payments has totally neutered the NCAA. IMO the current insanity re NIL payments will calm down in a few years. The deep pockets will get tired of absurd payments, especially when the on the field results are not commensurate with the cash outflow. That will happen.
  16. Almost one time. Totally gross.
  17. If Harsin turns AU into the program that I think he is capable of doing, we better get use to lots of coaching turnover. Sucessful assistant coaches are always poached by other schools. I do think that is coming.
  18. How about coitus? Will that do?
  19. Well, I guess moisture is also a naughty word. Samuel L Jackson would be proud.
  20. Gum smacking and cracking is almost as bad as spitting chewing tobacco juice. My goodness, this thread derail may become the Mother of all derails. I’m good with that! Let’s do it.
  21. Youse guys crack me up!
  22. Back off. Frank has had some really bad health issues and almost died from cancer. He is also a nice guy.
  23. For the first time I do wonder whether we have the right HC. That said, I do recognize that Hars inherited a disaster, and the talent level is woefully inadequate. I’ve seen enough from TJ to seriously doubt he will be the starter next year. Also, to not see anything from DD today would strongly suggest that he won’t be the QB next year. There are so many positions of need that it is incomprehensible. I can’t make a rational decision on Hars until our talent level increases, but if the talent doesn’t increase, then it would be obvious we need a different guy.
