Raquel Welch Has Died
Politics involves culture and one of the cultural icons of us who are of a certain age has died. Raquel Welch is dead at 82. She was a hot, ravishing beauty. All class with no vulgarity. Welch's poster adorned many a dorm room in the 60's and 70's. Just a reminder that time marches on and will catch...

Re: 2023 Ohio State Football Off Season Thread
Ohio State cancels home and home football game series with the Washington Huskies. The Bucks were scheduled to play in Seattle in 2024 and UW was to come to Columbus in 2025. OSU initiated the cancellation and will have to pay UW a $500K penalty. I guess the motivation might be to add a more certain...

Re: Shot Clock?
Again I state opposition to the shot clock. The game at all levels needs an injection of strategy and emphasis on skills like ball handling.

Re: Marshall basketball 22-23
Marshall having a great season. 20 wins already and 3rd place in the Sun Belt Conference in their first year. Still The Herd ranks only at 74th in the RPI and KenPom rankings. Can they make the NCAA field without winning their conference tournament?
