Please STOP the stupidity. It's getting kind of sad. Seriously. You embarrass yourself and the person you're pretending to be on here. [Hidden Content]

Good point. I can tell you who Kobe and LeBron think the best college coach is. If only they knew as much basketball as OF...

Best "recruiter" in the country. 1 ship. 1 < 5. But I forget. You only like stats when they help your argument. Which is almost never. I gotcha junior.

Stop. Just stop. WCS was not a freshman. And you said "all of Coach K's championships came with veteran teams." His best three players were freshmen and the kid who came up big in the FF was too (Allen). I would say nice try but your stuff is so weak I can't in good conscience. 1,043 wins, 90 tournament wins, 12 final fours. All records. Oh yeah, and 5 Natty's. Oh yeah, and unlike your boy, none of his teams have been placed on probation. Overrated? The only thing overrated is your perception that you know this game. I will give you credit though. Many times I have said you couldn't possibly make a more ridiculous statement than your last. And in that regard, you do keep proving me wrong...

This dude is nuttier than Chinese chicken salad. But I can understand how you would have forgotten a championship that occurred way back 12 months ago. But remind me: last year's championship team - what did Jahlil Okafor, Tyus Jones, and Justice Winslow have in common? I will give you a hint, in one year of college basketball they have the same number of rings as the great Cal...

And I believe David Torres is a sophomore (he is if it's the same one who plays basketball for the Titans).

Senator Cruz picked up another endorsement over the weekend:

Ok, never mind. Apparently a non-fatal shot to Darryl...

So Rosita is dead? Can't have been Darryl..

Please stop presenting facts on this forum...

NOW you're down in the muck with us bottom feeders!

You're pretty expensive my friend! I would probably go $50k and a year's worth of Arby's coupons...

Is it just me or does it literally look like he is trying to get Trump elected? This is like giving candy to a baby...

One of the few universal truths...

I guess I didn't directly. The point being that it is my opinion that most politicians have become beholden to the money which gets them elected/re-elected. For a great many, the purse string are held by big insurance. My point was very similar statements were made about health care if we could just stop these silly lawsuits. However, according to some of my friends who are doctors, despite being sued less, they pay as much or more in malpractice insurance premiums as they did before tort reform in this state. This country is continuously being sold a bill of goods by insurance companies and their puppets in politics. Whether or not he believed it or was repeating what he was told by the so-called experts, I wouldn't call him any more naive or incompetent as the majority of those making these decisions for us on a daily basis. And the result is having a guy like Trump on the footsteps of the White House.

Dang, I opened this hoping to see mugshots of his harem...

Sounds like the bill of goods that was sold to us in Texas a decade ago with Prop 12...

My teenager was the first to make me aware. Although he knows I'm no Cruz fan, I did remind him we are innocent until proven otherwise in this country. (i realize this isn't criminal but it's the same principle to me.) However, like in so many cases (Bill Cosby and Kevin Johnson recently - their alleged conduct IS criminal though), it just seems when their are multiple different sources and allegations, you are bound to find some credibility in there. Again, like you, for his family's sake, I hope it's all false. As for Trump, I guess I'm as bad as you and the media. I can't help but think he or his people are somehow involved. The timing is just too convenient. Again, I guess I can give him the benefit of the doubt but I can't help but be suspicious. But man if it is him, and even if it's true, you talk about glass houses. Would be just another shining example of his hypocrisy. But as you and I both know, my friend, hypocrite and politician seem to be synonyms these days...

You hit the nail on the head basically with pick and choose. Technically, all those operators of marijuana joints (no pun intended) could be prosecuted federally and most, if not all, are well aware of it. Although I don't believe (unless I've missed something) that there has been an official position released by the Feds that they won't prosecute, it's basically understood at this point. Of course, if that were to happen, there would be a prolonged battle in the courts about whether the states have the right to legalize something that is illegal under the federal statutes, or whether the federal government is overstepping its bounds in prosecuting an activity that is mandated legal by a particular state. Although we undoubtedly differ in our views on particular issues, I fall more in line with LRF's position above. I know a local judge who often tells people who are arrested and charged with marijuana possession, "if you feel you have to have marijuana in your life, move to Colorado." And he's right. On a somewhat related note, the courts have ruled that there is no double jeopardy in state and federal prosecutions for the same offense. For example, I have seen a person charged and convicted of bank robbery in a federal court, and to be likewise indicted by the state. Fortunately for this person, the DA in that county ultimately dismissed his case, but he certainly didn't have to. This particular "nuance" in the law drives me absolutely crazy.

I think we have a Tiger'esque situation here. Cruz doesn't have the skeletons that say a Rick Perry has but I've heard this type of story might surface at some point. It always seems worse to me when you wear a certain cloak which turns out to be a fraud. Personally, I would never have voted for Ted to begin with but if I was a supporter, it wouldn't change my support one iota. QB, Coach, CEO of a company I invest in, or a politician, their personal life is not something I care about. God knows I would be a hypocrite to cast stones at the Senator after one guy in particular I am quite fond of. But for his sake, I do hope it's all a bunch of made up lies. I don't wish the pain it will inflict on his family on anyone. But my guess is there's a fire behind this smoke. Interestingly, the Donald has a libido that would rival Slick Willy's. And if the same story came out about him, I doubt the majority of his supporters would be surprised or care that much. Again, be careful what you do when you like preaching.

Fair enough

I think you were misunderstood for sure if that was what people took from it. And looking at the tuition numbers, one thing jumped out at me. It can certainly be argued that a middle class family might have the biggest burden in sending their kid(s) there. What else is new in this world?

I really like Caruso too. But you are getting a kid with so much more game who also has so many intangibles. He's a leader, a dog, and handles the ball, sees the floor, and distributes the ball probably unlike anyone whose put on an Aggie uniform.

You trying to argue Cal is a better coach than Coach K is not only laughable, it also demonstrates your fundamental lack of understanding of the game. Here's a tip for you: never state that opinion in an interview. Even those football minded ADs will know you're clueless

And as many a coach has quipped when Cal to the NBA has been mentioned, why would he ever leave Kentucky to go to the next level when he would have a salary cap in the League?
