Non-Conference Schedule needs more.

It certainly didn't make this thread any worse.

I'm not complaining. I like the change of scenery!

Speaking of chugging. If you didn't already know this bar trick, try this one on for size. At a party, or at a bar, find the biggest machismo saturated meat head like Shock value and challenge him to a beer chugging contest for money.

While he selects the tried and true American brew, select yourself a Guinness. Guinness is a nitrogen infused libation, therefore, it lacks the 'bite' and fizz of its American contemporaries. While you chug it down like water, his stomach will eventually balloon and he'll either blow chunks or simply tap out. Give it a try, and PM me after you've collected your winnings, I'll be more than happy to accept a 80/20 split your way.

Sounds good in theory but Guinness is rather "thick" or stout as it were. I also have never pounded a 30 pack of Guinness!😄

[shock]

Guinness is heavy, but the trick works. I do it all the time with my buddy who is too much of a patriot to drink anything but PBR. I'm a medium weight, and he is a heavyweight and it bugs him to no end that I can out chug him at the bar.

And about my Lawrence IP. Im going to school there. Get to know me, or atleast look at my posts.

Can you post some picture of yourself so we can get to know you better. Maybe in your best WSU gear?

Here let me start.....right after college.

I'll show mine if you show yours. LOL

I prefer 'Buffalo Sweat' or 'Moose-knuckle Sweat' at Twin Peaks; they're heavy, smooth and chuggable.

My friend always gets the sweats...I prefer the seasonals or the Blvd wheat or 80-acre when they carry it...

Protip: Quit arguing with everything. You are new and self-admittedly really, really dumb when it comes to a lot of nuances. I thought you were about 12 during your initial posting rampage and have been responding with kid gloves. Since you are ~20, go to a basketball school, and somehow have no clue what you are talking about, let's turn to a more honest approach. You need to read up for a long, long time instead of challenging everything with the first (likely dumb) thought to pop into your head 50+ times in the course of your first day on the board.

In sum



The comparison earlier to a 5th grader hanging out with high schoolers and constantly piping up with 5th grade level questions is apt. The older kids are fine accepting you into the group, you just have to not be annoying as hell if you want to fit in.

A lot of the time, when you are new to the board, that means



And in case the point has not yet been driven home,

I'll admit I have not taken the time to memorize this thread, but this is ALWAYS good advice !

oops!!! The quote didn't show up!!! WHAT?????????

You look pretty good now for having graduated from college and holding an M 1. But I'm confused because that was a Marine uniform and I thought you were in the Army.:)

SB with those looks you should have gone to Hollywood; you could have had at least a modest career (primarily Westerns if you could have ridden a horse).

This is an argument made by the media increasingly the past few seasons.

If you follow the math it makes zero sense. Either RPI is indicative of team strength or it isn't. If we can judge the quality of your opponents based on their RPI, we can just as accurately judge the quality of your team based on your RPI.

Yes, we can certainly do that, but not the selection committee. Everything I've ever read on the process (I've followed a couple of the publicized mock selections and read several articles written by different participants) is that the committee uses the RPI as just one tool to judge a team's good and bad wins/losses.

So, while WSU's RPI (and while we're at it, conference RPI) makes for interesting fan discussion, it's only real value to the selection committee is as a tool to evaluate our opponents.

I completely agree that this is what's happening. My only contention is that the logic they are using in doing so is extremely flawed.

Buffalo Sweat is one of my favorite beers. Ever tried Breckenridge's Vanilla Porter?

No, I'll put that one on my list.
