  1. No argument - but it's stupid and shitty to publicly bash your coach. Did he think it needed to be said? No one who watched that game needed to be made aware of the poor coaching decisions.

  2. Maybe giving Jim suspension tips is a bad idea. It'll just make it harder to keep up with him

  3. It's snows, then melts the next day here. But winter is awesome, I love it. Haven't rode the bike much lately, but just started riding a board again. I'm in love with the mountains, never experienced anything like snowboarding here.

  5. I wouldn't say crumbling but they haven't been great this year and the coaching has been lack luster. Also, the fact that it's so wrong to say what everyone already knows and is thinking is exactly what is wrong with this country these days

  8. With play calling like that for OSU, even a community college could have won. MSU is the Big 10 nemesis for OSU, was not a very good game but the better team won today. Should be Iowa and MSU in the championship, and as an OSU fan I am actually relieved they lost. They did not deserve their ranking with how they have played this season, and they will likely and very rightly exit the top 10. I am betting the O coordinator is likely history, the offense has been stagnant due to play calling all season "with pretty much same team as last season", even Meyer during the post game conference showed his disapproval for the plays called. Congrats MSU, that is one tough defense!!!

  9. SS: That question is about as easy to answer as "What's the best oil?" Tire pressure depends on SO MANY things: type of bike, type of tire (radial vs bias-ply, tube vs tubeless), weight of bike, weight of bike+rider+passenger+luggage, type of riding, overall average speed, anticipated top speed, air and/or road temperature, and even how you personally want to balance tire grip with tire longevity. From my experience, there are some general "rules of thumb": 1) You really can't go too badly wrong sticking with the manufacturer's recommendation in the owners manual. (This assumes you haven't dramatically changed the type of tire that came on the bike as OEM.) 2) Generally, the heavier the bike and it's load (rider+pass+luggage) the higher the pressure. 3) Lower pressure will usually result in a shorter tire life. 4) For extended extreme speeds (i.e., >120-130 MPH) you should bump the recommended pressures up several pounds. NOTE: THIS DOES NOT EQUATE TO BETTER HANDLING!! 5) For track days, most run lower pressures than typical street pressure for increased grip. 6) For colder air/pavement temps, slightly lower pressures give better grip. All of this shouldn't be taken as gospel, but is a short summary of what I've experienced over about 50 years of riding both street and dirt. Never exceed the maximum pressure listed on the tire sidewall, and don't exceed the GVWR of your motorcycle. When I say 'lower' or higher' I'm generally talking just a few pounds of inflation. For instance, I typically keep my tires inflated to about 34/36 F/R (Suzuki DL650, ~525#, DS radial tires) for normal commuting. If I plan on running the backwoods aggressively, I lower the pressure to 32/34. In winter weather, this might be as low 30/32. When I load up for a trip, whether it's on backroads or expressway, I air up to 36/38+. And I never have any tire problems on the Strom with extreme 130+MPH speeds.... BTW, I ride the poor little thing pretty hard and typically only get 5000-7000 miles out of a set of tires. My front usually lasts a little longer than the rear, but I pitch it when it gets triangulated, even if it still has some tread left.
