You have to remember that one reason so many 3s were open was because of the defense inside on Morris. Add the fact that Morris doesn't work nearly hard enough to actually get open and that could be an answer to your question.

Horford's not the problem. His replacement Richards is.

The radio crew talked to Asst. Coach Greg Gary. He's uh....upset. When asked about the three's, he basically said, "If you don't get a hand in their face, it's just like practice for them."

8 of 11 from 3 land? Aren't the Cards like 25% against everybody else? With Grandsberry out USF's got nothing. This one's over already.

I can't watch. I'm good for only 1 massacre a season.

Isn't interesting that Florida and South Florida were scheduled to play in Kentucky on the same day? hmmmmmmmm

This question would be better if posted right after UK loses. I don't see many replies tonight. Seems like some people are too busy to post unless UK comes up short.

I don't think so. Their defense won't keep up, IMO.

 

In the past 3 year span, the 2005 offense was clearly the worst... and they still nearly beat WVU.

 

South Florida worries me more.

Really, you are going to turn down a $20 million dollar contract because you can't visit XYZ saloon and instead going overseas and playing for a contract that is 10% of that?

Hang on a second! I've never agreed with this law that a person can be charged if drugs are found in the car that he is a passenger in. If he has the drugs on him, thats different.

Like my pappy always told me. "I'm not going to tell you who to hang out with. I'll have to trust that you've been taught properly. If you decide to run around with the wrong crowd and get into a situation that gets your tail plopped in the Riverside Motel (Whitley County jailhouse), do not, under any circumstances, call home." That warning worked on my kid too.

Agree with the law or not, he should have known better and not placed himself in that situation.

I'm happy that the Colts are in the Super Bowl. What tears me up is those calling Brady a choker. He tried to force a pass at a time when he had no open receivers and time running out at the end of a game that he had a 15 point lead in at one time.

So Merriman has class and the Patriots does not?????

Florida is trying something different. Instead of keeping the number of schools in each class the same, they have decided to stick to strict enrollment guidelines and divide the classes that contain too many schools into multiple classes. These are usually the smaller schools. Class 2A was divided into 2A and 2B in 2003. Class 1A was divided into 1A and 1B in 2005. Technically Florida has 8 classes now.

You have no idea how bad I want this for Tony Dungy.

Must be some past b/t Bill and LT?

I'm shocked. :eek:

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Swamprat,

 

Do you have a source for that statement? I have searched and searched and found nothing to back it up. In fact, I found a U.S. Geologic Survey report that states that:

 

"Scientists have calculated that volcanoes emit between about 130-230 million tonnes (145-255 million tons) of CO2 into the atmosphere every year (Gerlach, 1999, 1992). This estimate includes both subaerial and submarine volcanoes, about in equal amounts. Emissions of CO2 by human activities, including fossil fuel burning, cement production, and gas flaring, amount to about 22 billion tonnes per year (24 billion tons) [ ( Marland, et al., 1998) - The reference gives the amount of released carbon ©, rather than CO2.]. Human activities release more than 150 times the amount of CO2 emitted by volcanoes--the equivalent of nearly 17,000 additional volcanoes like Kilauea (Kilauea emits about 13.2 million tonnes/year)!"

 

http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/Hazards/What/VolGas/volgas.html

 

The data I found seems to be at odds with your claim.

If that was the only piece of information, I would agree with you--warmer temps do not, in and of themselves, suggest human activity is the root cause.

 

However, we know that carbon dioxide gas allows short wavelength radiant energy from the sun to pass through, but absorbs some of the long wavelength radiant energy that would otherwise radiate from the earth into space. The more CO2 in the atmosphere, the more energy is trapped within the atmosphere due to this effect. This is the mechanism suspected to be behind the so-called greenhouse effect. We also know that since the industrial revolution, humans have been pumping more CO2 into the atmosphere through the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Humans have also been reducing one natural mechanism (trees) for scrubbing CO2 from the atmosphere and converting it back into oxygen and carbon solids.

 

So, we know that CO2 prevents radiant energy from being reflected back into space and we know that human activity contributes to an increase in the natural balance of CO2 due to burning of fossil fuels and deforestation.

 

For me, that is all I need to know to conclude that human activity is playing a significant role in climate change.

I used to believe that. However, recent studies have presented evidence that the claims of second-hand smoke were greatly exaggerated. The real threat from second hand smoke appears to be far less than what has been previously claimed.

 

I find it difficult to believe that the courts will find this law to be constitutional.

What a great deal for UofL. We got Petrino to get us to the Orange Bowl, basically without having to pay him.

 

Jurich is KING!

:laugh: :laugh:

What I saw tonight was two great teams who read all of the press clippings and predictions by the "experts". One believed them. One did not.

You are mis-reading.

Louisville pays more, has their own stadium, and better fan support. Leavitt also has hardly been thumping Louisville in recruiting.

Also, you're right. USF loses a gob of recruits to UofL every year, yet the Bulls have recorded only one losing season in the 10 year history of the program, none since joining D1-A and they're even up against the Cards (2-2). Makes you wonder why other schools keep putting Jim on their short list.

I don't want to make this about USF. Even though I hate to see Bobby Petrino leave UofL, as a Bull fan, I can only hope UofL's loss makes it easier for Rocky and the boys. :jump:

Would Leavitt want to leave USF for Louisville? In my opinion, he's good the inside track on Florida right now being the only Big East school in the state. True, he has to recruit against Miami, FSU and Florida, but he can sell his kids on competing for a BCS bowl every season, whereas those schools have to compete in the ACC (against Virginia Tech, Clemson, Georgia Tech, etc.) and SEC (any team is good!). If Leavitt continues to get top notch kids, then that leaves fewer for Louisville, West Virginia, Rutgers, etc. to come in and take. I think Leavitt is in a wonderful position.

Petrino was extremely successful recruiting against FSU, UF, and Miami. John L was not as proficiant, and I (for one) am hoping Petrino's replacement is not going to be as successful.

Jim Leavitt?

 

I dunno. He has a couple of nice upsets, but some headscratchers, too.
