  • Can You Beat a Saluki?

    You know that program "Can You Beat a Fifth Grader?" OK, I've never seen it either but we could make our own game.

    Can You Beat a Saluki?

    On ST, there is a thread about a CU blog or article: http://salukitalk.net/st/viewtopic.php?t=29137.

    It discusses this item: http://whiteandbluereview.com/?p=1508

    Wichita State: The Shox can’t get a game with Kansas or Kansas State, but they’ll play at least one Big 12 school in 2009-2010. Gregg Marshall’s got his team in the CBE Classic, which culminates in Kansas City with the Shox getting a game against Pitt and then either Texas or Iowa. Before they get to the Sprint Center, though, they’ll play Fairleigh Dickinson (not a person; a school) and Arkansas-Monticello (not a type of wine or moonshine; a school) at Koch Arena. The game against Monticello was added when Illinois-Chicago backed out of the tournament. Monticello is a D-II school. Needless to say, WSU wasn’t pleased with the news. And I don’t know if people have a problem with the Shockers, Marshall, or the City of Wichita as a whole, but
    the city lost its bid to host the NCAA Tournament in a newly built arena,
    they have to go on the road to return a BracketBusters game from last season, and then go on the road against for this year’s BracketBusters matchup (one of only three Valley teams to hit the road for the event).

    Now consider this post from the ST thread:

    One error in that article I have caught so far, we played UCLA and not Michigan in the Coaches vs Cancer. We thought we would play them though.

    Oh, and the Shockers arena is not newly built, just newly remodeled.



    The game is to see if you can say something connected with SIU hosting a NCAA regional (heck, hosting anything) which is more inane than the Saluki comment above.

    Don't worry too much about it. Just do all you can do and let the rough end drag.

    I would have thought that merely suggesting that Carbondale host anything would be inane enough to win the contest.

        Perfect place to host a tractor show, methamphetamine producers' convention or Slipknot concert.

          This from Wikipedia:

          Carbondale is known for a number of yearly festivals, including the Lights Fantastic parade in December, the Main Street Pig Out (a September barbecue-and-music festival), the Big Muddy Film Festival (February/March), the Southern Illinois Irish Festival (April), the Great Cardboard Boat Regatta (April), the Sunset Concerts (a summer series of free outdoor concerts on the Southern Illinois University campus and in city parks), and Brown Bag Concerts (a spring and fall series of free outdoor concerts in the Town Square Pavilion).

            The brown bag concerts in carbondale are events that you can actually utilize the brown bag for several purposes....You can carry your lunch/dinner in it......you can use it to carry your liquor......you can use it to cover you or your dates head as you leave the concert.

                Sounds like fun. I'd probably skip the Cardboard Boat Regatta, but might take advantage of the rest.
