Cancer Diagnosis

The remaining PAC 4 have got to be experiencing some of the emotions a person feels when they get a cancer diagnosis. Denial: We are better than this. This can't be happening to us. Anger: Those Ba*tards screwed us and we can't let them get away with it. Depression: Can't sleep, eat, concentrate on anything but getting left behind. Bargaining: We'll take anything that will let us keep our status. And finally Acceptance: We're going to have to deal with less money. We will be in a lessor conference. Let's figure a way to get the best of it. Those MWC conference teams are crap so at least we will have a great record as we beat them up.

OT: Trial of the Century: George Floyd

I dunno if I’m smoking too much “platinum cookies”, but he kinda looks like George Ackles..

anyways, what do you guys predict about Derrick Chauvin.

Shot in the dark, I’m going with manslaughter..

OT: Larry Johnson sighting..

I watched wrestlemania with some homies last Saturday and the discussion turned into the Fabulous Freebirds with Michael PS Hayes. The Texas promotions were bad ass. I know of them but didn’t follow as much as soon as I moved to Vegas as they were always on some random channel. I never heard Badstreet USA. Been listening non stop to this wrestling entrance music masterpiece. As a matter of fact, I think it’s the best original wrestling promo cut for a wrestler of all time.

Watch the entire video..and then watch the end credits.

Please, can somebody contact Mr. Larry Johnson and ask if he is in the video? I went to his Facebook page and it’s impossible to contact him.

Just watch the video..holy crap. Go to the 6:13 mark when the credits scroll.

OT: The world has gone to shit thread

This is awesome. So in France, Muslims are going after the police, mayor and mayor’s wives houses.

that fraud Ukrainian President has fled to Israel.

so the end of the world is coming.

So what is going to happen is that Israel is going to storm the Muslim temple on the dome Rock and build a Jewish Temple on it.Israel will unify the West Bank and take it over. Then the Gaza Strip will be isolated off.

There will be a western based power conference….

Sit back and think about it for a second. Will the coast to coast power conference actually survive long term? I was thinking about this issue and wonder how the UCLA fan base will react when the BIG conference basketball tourney is held at the United Center in Chicago in early March. Or how will the USC fans react when the BIG football conference championship game is held in the heart of BIG country in late December or early January at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis. What about the travel? I read where the BIG has already made a statement that the only guaranteed rivalry football game that will be scheduled will be OSU/Michigan. How does USC react when they no longer call the shots on important conference issues? Such as UCLA vs USC? This early on ASU has already made it public that they don’t want to travel to Morgantown to play West Virginia. Also, with approximately 40 million households cutting the cord on cable TV how long will the current economic model last? What UNLV needs to do over the next 5-10 years is to take advantage of its location, facilities and the fact that they are actually paying its head football coach a competitive salary and separate it’s football program from the rest of the PAC/MWC and win. IMO the top 4-5 programs will have a shot at a reconstructed west coast power conference down the road if football can win.

Ugliest players

We started this thread when the Jazz play the Blazers back in the 90's. Many years later it has been copied and repeated. I will ask you once again to name the Ugliest Player in basketball. Back then there was no WNBA so now they're included.
My pick back then was Sam Cassel (Alien looking asshole) and Jeff Hornacek (Bitter beer face a$$hole). Hard as hell not to pick Popeye Jones. The dude looks like an electrocuted Shrek.
Today, you pick...

OT:Documentaries to watch..

Just saw the Netflix documentary with Wham!

I thought it was freakin Great. Man, George Michael with his unmoveable haircut brought a tear to my eye.

I never heard of their early stuff when they were in the UK. My god, it was awful but it was a necessary component for them to get big.

I absolutely love George Michael. I had the freakin perm haircut like his when I lived in TEnnessee. Heck I look in the mirror everyday trying to emulate his flamboyant gayness to the max.

The 80’s was just a phenomenal time. When I moved out to Vegas in 1985, Freedom was all over the radio. Heck for all you old school eastsiders, there was the old Freedom Park on Bonanza/Pecos..

I thought he did Ridgely dirty by ditching him.

I give it a pure 10/10 Review.

so if anyone has any documentary recommendations, lemme know.

I got Netflix, HBO err max these days.

2 Things

First I really hope that Harp has all of our power players together and lobbying their asses off to get us into one of the 3 remaining Power Conferences. Second, in case that doesn’t work out for us that our commissioner (Nevarez?) is working some deals behind the scenes to add a few decent pieces and significantly bump up our TV package. I hear that Apple is looking to pick something up on the west coast now that the PAC is almost dead and buried.

Absolutely crazy what is going on. Decades long rivalries being torched, teams being flown across the country for minor sports etc. In a couple years it will be the same old thing, 3 or 4 teams at the top of the conference, 10-12 fighting in the middle & 3 or 4 perennially at the bottom.

The SEC or BIg ought to wake up and grab us so that their fans could have a fun road trip every other year if we don’t get any better!
