Candlestick Park.

Oh, wait, you said "closed its doors", not "opened". Plus, I guess that was 1960.

What a great frickin' night of basketball.

I was hoping #7 was the clitoris and an ode thereto.

Nice start to the tourney. Timed my lunch hour with the second half of Dayton/tOSU.

If that was a suicide decision, that's one of the oddest ones I can think of. Why not just fly the plane straight into the first available water? Why turn and fly it out there and crash it? Only thing I can imagine is if the pilot didn't want it ever found for insurance purposes maybe? Hey, wild sp...

Even CNN couldn't come up with a speculative reason for that.

It would not. In fact, it would be hella responsible to note that can't be dismissed.

Give me Tennessee and NC State to win their first games in the real tournament now that they have played their way in.

Could be some sort of Payne Stewart-ish situation, where everybody was unconscious and the plane went on until it ran out of fuel. SPECULATORS...mount up That's some fine speculating. I thought that the professional speculators dismissed that early on because of the systems being turned off and wha...

Fracture confirmed. He's gone for a good while. Just a gut punch. First worries for his recovery as a person - setting aside getting back on the mound again at some point. And, with regard to on-field issues, a nice test of how important a closer is (or is not). Chapman hasn't gotten saves at a rate...

Crying here. Whole thing is well done (as usual).

Especially when they are so close, their fans should have packed the place. Should have been a home game for them.

Agreed, really crappy showing from them and the program.

That mount saint marys kid with the "raining 30 footers" range is making this a highly entertaining game.

Maybe the mount st marys coach should tell his team to go back to making shots.

Play-in games underway. I have finally stopped loathing these. Maybe because I realize that brackets have largely been unaffected by these games. Except that whole VCU thing. Generally, though, you're right. I didn't mean that. I meant the picking of games for pools is unaffected. When they first w...

mount st. marys came off the mat really well. Good game now.

Yeah? I thought I read somewhere that planes cannot make the leap to space without coming completely apart (setting aside all the other issues with the attempt).

If I am wrong about that, my bad to brian.

Also still marveling over how loaded the Midwest region is.

"generally" ( I would think you would assume "generally" should be added). A rocket ship has a good shot at getting to space. I don't think airplanes generally fall apart either. I'm really not sure what you were trying to say. If planes attempt to go to space, they will fall ap...

If you could get sucked into space on a passenger plane, we've wasted a lot of money on rockets. Then again, the rockets don't fall apart, whereas an airplane... O RLY? "generally" ( I would think you would assume "generally" should be added). A rocket ship has a good shot at ge...

I saw the one BFJ linked earlier today. Occam's razor cuts a fine edge. #7 is less plausible to me because would've that other plane have had some inkling? On #7, apparently not. Not with the ACARS and other transponder stuff turned off. Not saying that scenario is likely, just that it isn't immedi...

Chumley to me only exists in South Orange in late March every year...

btw, where is the thread discussing the missing plane?

tennbengal

Just checking, but did the fan of a team that put a support system in place for what appears to be a serial killer really say they have a track record of straightening wayward players out?

tennbengal

but they also have a track record of straightening players out

lolz

tennbengal

I will say yes.

Also, I have no idea what a good value is anymore in this landscape. The Broncos are signing people like they are printing money and the salary cap doesn't apply to them.

And he ended up back with Rams.

Now Rams Fan has to take back the bad stuff he said about him.
