USC -9.5 over Cal Poly *** line went up a .5 sorry
Poly has been jeckal and hyde....way back in early Nov they lost to UNLV and UCLA by a few points...they just had their doors blown off by Mary but Mary is doing that to everybody...Poly has beaten some bad teams Balt-Md,APeay,Cal St Monteray,and Antelope Vally...and just lost to IUPU...in their last 2 games{ beat Fresno} they shot 4-13 and 8-22 from the 3...they have a good front line,and solid gds..they play solid defense and don't turn the ball over...
USC has McLaughlin a gd who can penetrate,pass, and score..Jacobs plays the point and are not sure if he is playing tonite..Boatright and Jovanic are big boys inside...Frosh Metu is 6'11 and comes off the bench..has 23 blocked shots and is a presence inside the paint on defense..USC has a better offense with more scorers...they have big gds and if Jacobs plays tonite think they win this by double d'ds..they might win and cover w/o Jacobs...think USC dominates inside and has McLaughlin...


South Dakota +9 over Wisky Mil *

yest 5-2 +9*'s
overall 78-67 +54*'s

 

[Box and one]

USC did score 100 on a 40 ft banked jumper as time was running out...they were holding the ball not to score with a few seconds on the shot clock left..Jacobs did play and scored 10 pts and 13 assists ...and Muti came off the bench and scored 15...Cal poly was really never in the game...
Not sure if I will be here tonite..
I capped Washington-Texas St two nights ago...I have it at Washington St -14-15...line opened up at -9.5 and is now -10...looked for injuries,etc...nothing...

Washington St -10 over Texas St *****
Love the Coogs tonite....will explain if I have a chance...been having chest pains since Monday...had an ekg that turned abnormal..did an eco and nuclear stress test yesterday..going back today..hopefully I won't be admitted....getting too old chasing kids all day.. need to pack my bags and go south to austin for the winter.
.Coogs have a superstar in 6'10 Hawkinson..Have Izunda and Clifford at 7'0 and 6'10..a good gd in Iroega and Johnson.....Coogs can score,rebound and shoot better then the bobcats...Bobcats have no gds at all...no one on that team can create their own shot..Kasper is a great coach with little talent..they have 3 6'7 fds that are avg..think they get eaten up tonite..

Thanks guys...I just got to school...going over sub lessons of teachers that called in sick....get a call from the doctors office.. I failed my stress test...he scheduled me for a cauterization test today at 3.00 pm....just got home and am reading about it on the internet....I guess they go through your groin and see whats up in your heart... this is new for me..my buddy who will drive me to the hospital just told me he had 2 of these procedures done to him..not bad..they don't put you out totally...have to lay on your back for a few hours after the procedure......my wife in Austin called my daughter in Philly to come up...hopefully everything will be ok...
I can see from my house the " Gonks" mountain range....its where I believe and many others that Rip Van Winkle fell asleep for 20 years...Washington Irving never told anybody what Hudson Valley mountain range he wrote his story about...the Gonks are at the beginning of the Catskills....anyway If they put me totally out and I wake up 20 years later the first thing I would ask the doctor is " did Washington St cover"?

hopefully wil be back tonite..gl today.. Old school,Bucky and pockets thanks..

last nite 2-0 +4*'s
overall 80-67 +58*'s

don't worry about it box, it's a piece of cake. you'll feel a little stick then a warm fuzzy feeling when he turns the dye lose but you can watch everything on the tv monitor. yes u have to keep that leg still for awhile so as not to make it bleed. some dr's put a silicone plug in the hole which desolves in a month or so. not a bad deal, just scarey the first time, i've had two done. good luck.

That catheterization is a low risk procedure which gets you a lot of information about your coronary arteries. They'll tell you to eat better and exercise more. And you'll live to 'cap the 2050 NCAA Final Four.

 

[Dog lover]

Box,
Hurry down here, get healthy in the Austin climate, and watch the Horns. No stress!!! Only home game until January is vs. UConn on Dec. 29th. Might have tickets available next to me. Box, come on down!!!
Look forward to your visit, DL.

 

[Box and one]

Thanks guys...just a little worried..I know its a low risk procedure..just never did it...
Dog lover...will take you up on the Uconn game if you can get me a ticket..leaving her on the 22nd hopefully if everything is ok...thanks for the nice comments...hopefully will be back later tonite...leaving in about 10 minutes to the hospital

Sounds similar to an angiogram. If you have blockages in any of your coronary arteries, sometimes they can fix them by putting in a "stent". Had it done twice. No pain, minor restrictions for a few days and you'll be back in business, good as new! GL, Box.:0074

Box--gl--time to retire again--get rid of the stress buddy

Best Wishes Always B&1!!! :0074

Hope you have clean arteries Box. I actually sell products when patients don't. Hope your positive stress test was a false positive. If there are significant blockages or narrowings, they may use balloons and stents to open em up. Good luck again. You'll be in good hands, Gods hands.

 

[BadAngel]

Box, I hope everything is okay . My prayers are with you. I hope you get back on here tonight and let us know everything is ok. Your a class act buddy.
