Nice. Can I un-cross my fingers now? Love this pickup.

Frank was simply the best. Happy for him, sad for myself.

Is it generally agreed upon the Snuggerud will sign a pro contract soon? Looks to me like he's not quite ready for that jump, but that's just me.

Michigan looks very "meh" for 50 minutes, but looks like the 1970's Soviet Olympic team for 10 minutes. Enough to win the game.

That was the funnest basketball game I've watched in years. Punch, counter punch. Clean play, too.

Go Fightin' Toothpastes!!
