  • Legendary Moments on Shockernet

    It’s that time of year (offseason) when we discuss Shockernet and all its greatness. Once we get a pretty good list of the Greatest Hits, I’ll make a poll and we can rank them.

    Bonus points if you can make it sound like an Always Sunny episode title.

    -Ricardo del Rio calls into the HCGM show and apologizes for picking WSU to lose in a pick em.

    -Tyrone Shoelace eats a Taco Shop burrito

    -OneGreatRacer buys a Billboard

        I like to think that until that billboard went up the WSU administration was fully unaware of the incompetence residing in the office of the AD. The scales fell the day the board went up. It was literally the spring Board to where we are now. At least that's what I choose to believe.

          Has Boatright ever emerged from the portal?

            Casey Crawford... savior.
            Jurg, Jorge, Gurg, Whatever.... this place needs more of it.
            Orupke... I've heard rumblings of his greatness, but still it pales in comparison to Jeurg.
            And the greatest of all of these:

            Onegreatracer and the billboard. Kudos!

                No doubt that the billboard is #1. I also liked Double Dribble and Tyrone Shoelace kicking each other in the grapes (and that can be very painful)

                    I know this is self-aggrandizing, but I thought the coordinated April Fools joke with SalukiTalk was pretty good.

                          So many memories. Picking 1 is like pulling hens teeth or expecting eggs in your beer. Rosewood complaining of stale nachos from confession (concession) stand. The channel 12 guy caught on a hot microphone,

                          My long list got reduced to this when posted so will piece together later.

                          Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.
