CONGRATULATIONS COACH! Sadly, some of the A*&holes that can't dribble, let alone coach, see this as an opportunity to kick you around some more. But Dickie V who, like you, is defined more by his antics than how really smart and good he is, said it best.
Some things to think about as LA atones for it's "sins". Without that water, there would simply be no LA - it is after all desert. Also remember, only a few thousand people live in the Owens Valley, and that is all that ever will. It's geographical isolation, and the fact that much of it could disappear in the blink of a volcanic eye, will see to it that such is always the case. LA bought and paid for that land and water. Don't misunderstand me. I love it up there and vacation there often, but there is a bit of tyranny involved in this effort, and to describe what has happened as "sin" just misses the mark so completely.
OH, so it's moderate to think global warming is man-made, but extremeist to think it's not, even if both of you think the essential response is the same? What's the difference? well, the "moderate" wants centralized control of the response, whereas the "extremeist" thinks a robust free market will respond accordingly. And what really matters becomes apparent.
The year in quotations.
If you know anything about how franchising works, this gets a little scary.
How to fry a snake.
My butt gets sore just thinking about it.
Being contrarian, I predict that scientists that think science can solve behovioral problems will be wiped out in a large global conflict in the next 150 years. For reference, see John Lennon, remember that song he wrote?
Who needs nuclear weapons when we have stoves?
HUH?!?!?!?

The postgame ceremony was unbelievable, though it would have been even more special if someone from the University of Indiana was there to present a plaque or some kind of award. It still blows my mind that Knight is not in the school's athletic Hall of Fame even though he is eligible, but he is in Ohio State's. The Indiana administration should have been there in Lubbock given his 662 wins for the Bloomington-based school.I love where I came of age, but there are times I am reminded why I left.
There are so many beautiful fans in Indiana who have a passion and love for their basketball. They appreciate what Knight achieved, winning three national titles and 11 Big Ten championships there. That's why I feel Indiana's administration should have presented something. Let bygones be bygones on both sides. I have often said that the building in Bloomington should be named after Knight for all of his accomplishments and the players he has graduated.
Indiana did send a message of congratulations, but it was not enough.
