“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”

Interesting in that it predicts a 10-point KU win if it's considered more of a "home" crowd/game, but a closer 6-point game if considered "neutral."
As I mentioned in the IU-UK thread, if IU wins the game against ConTucky prior to ours, it will become a more pro-KU arena because many anti-KU Big Blue fans will scurry to the exits with their tails between their legs--or sit silently in shocked dejection.

Of course, anything that makes her cry is alright with me!

Away from the arena I actually like Ashley quite a lot. She even played one of my all-time favorite Star Trek characters, Ensign Robin Lefler.
Still, when it comes to CBB, I always enjoy the significance, if not the actual act, of her crying.

My comment was directed at Bay because he was being so mean, Wheaty. I was NOT admonishing you, and certainly agree, as I noted, that I enjoy the significance of her tears in the stands!
