    OK then, let's see if we can beat WSU at home -- February 8, 2014

    Ouch.

    Game to Avoid: The only game not involving at least one team that is at least 5-4 is Washington State‘s visit to Utah. Furthermore, it’s at an all too prime of a time on a Saturday as spring is springing on us and it might be a nice evening to do something else. That said, DaVonte Lacy is back and Delon Wright and the Fighting Krystkowiak’s are worth the price of admission. But if there isn’t much on the line, and we are that much closer to the end of this season, you might be best suited doing something else.

    We'd better.

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    Nice first half. Other than Shelton, WSU hasn't done much.
    On the other hand, Utes have had some nice contributions off the bench. Not sure about Fields, though.

    Not sure what to think about those "Imagine U" commercials.

    You don't have to go to college to go hiking & mountain-biking.
    Plus, it's harder to sell the "passionate about the environment" thing with SLC's current air-quality issues.

    I guess that red balloon is something scientific, but otherwise it's commercial showing a bunch of kids on spring break who couldn't afford to go to Mexico.

    I'm kind of sick of seeing it.

    Me too. And I'm tired of the "I think we should challenge our mortgage payment" commercial.
    But I always love the surprised kitty.
    Always.

    PS - I edited the thread-title to fix the date, LA. Just FYI

    Love the way Delon sees the floor.
