    What if Collins ...

    It was especially tempting to give up after the German bombing of Pearl Harbor, given the Japanese had just bombed it the week prior. On the upside, most of the valuable targets were already gone Now I'm going to cross my fingers and hope I didn't just let a joke whoosh over my head...

    Yeah, I believe this is correct. Our KenPom rating is never going to financially recover from this

    Ok now we are in

    I haven't posted in the last week for a reason. I'm just happy to see the very good team show up to rise above the injuries in this game
