Illini earn #1 seed

Posted in SPLOG to Word by Rob McColley on Sunday, March 14, 2010 at 8:21 pm

The Illini men travel to Long Island this week to face the Stony Brook Seawolves in the opening round of of the NIT.

Illinois can't play at home because Cirque du Soleil is in town.

The game airs o' ESPNU at 8 o'clock o' St. Patrick's Day.

If you drink enough, you may imagine you're seeing inbounds plays. Except that you don't have ESPNU.

WTF guys?  Does impersonating a user in the comments section run afoul of your commenting policy?

No, everyone is me!  Muahahaha!
I so didn’t make that first comment so I thought maybe someone was trying to get my goat, adding me to the staff. I hope jumping to that conclusion is forgivable. 
Yeah, uh, I guess I should say that I swear I didn’t hack the site.  Crazy.

So John is seeing all comments as being authored by John. I am seeing all comments as authored by me.
 
The first comment was Mysterious McDade who evidently acquired an Optimism Hat and is now seeing how it fits.

Speaking of regular commutes getting safer- White Street now open over the great divide east First Street. Woo Hoo!

I’m not sure that’s what Fred is saying. But the response of “You should just be happy to have a job!“ is a far too common excuse for employers’ bad treatment of workers. It’s also way too common in C-U.

@Fred While I agree that if your employer is treating you badly (e.g. shitty shifts, not honoring break/meal times, or just generally being an asshole) you should look for something else. However, as we all will experience at some point or another, we sometimes have to take…

You mean, once they’ve paid $140 worth of nickels and dimes in one calendar year the CPL issues them a waiver?   I’ll bet you’d get little argument from the CPL.

This is a great list—thanks. I find the run between Hessel and Centennial to be incredibly boring, excepting the few blocks of nice homes, which I admit make for interesting scenery. Have you been to Homer Lake? They seem to have some great trails, though none are…

Not that they aren’t great mash-ups, but I’ve seen them twice in concert and was just frankly kind of bored. Probably won’t be going tonight. Maybe I just don’t like fun.

You can probably tuck in thinly sliced Romas. But for anything juicier like cherries, brandywines, etc., I would go with Pepin’s method of combining them with bread chunks. Zucchini contains a lot of water, too, so you’re probably best to use it solo or with onions. Saute…
