This no Pac-12 thing is kind of limiting.

Well, yeah. Otherwise having too many "easy" choices may not wrap this competition up before the CCG...

Sorry for hosing thisup last week guys.  It was a real fun battled down to 2 and furthest I'd made it in years.

Simply was busy early in the week and then was gone all day Fri, Sat and Sun helping organize and run and out of state wedding or a dear fraternity brother of mine who is anything but a party planner.

I had something family related pop up Thurs after work that was unexpected and kept me from getting on line, and then 'll be hones, the next tiem I thought about CFB was at the reception in TN when the lcoasl were groaning about being down to OU and my son was texting me Purdue was actually making it a game in Ann Arbor.  NEver made it to a TV to see any CFB, though did get to check out that incredible 9th and 10th in of the World Series at the after party.

So again, I apologize, but jsut as is a large factor of why I rarely post anymore is I am just busier than hell with work, keeping in shape for running half marathons, my kids' youth sports, working many concerts and games to help fundraiser for those youth sports, volunteering on a couple local boards, and then when it's warm out try to find time to jump in our pool, living life as the effective glue guy/social chair for my band of friends (like we always go to Louder Than Life metal festival), and of course, watch live CBB and CFB.  I try ot make it appt television as much as possible but doesn't always work out that way.  10 years ago I was an absolute NFL diehard ad ran like 10 fantasy leagues.  Now I am lucky if I catch half of my fave teams snaps in a season.  Just the way life is and I'm good with it.  

Stilltry hard to watch all Boilers snaps (painful!) and you bet I catch all the hoops!Phoenix was such an incredible experience in 2024.
