  1. I'm headed over about 1 pm today (Sunday, 11-15). Text me before you come over to make sure I am there, the stuff you want is still available, etc. First come, first serve. Bring some cash and leave with a bunch of stuff. Also, be sure to bring friends/family to help you move stuff, because I'm not helping you. I'm practically giving this stuff away. In fact, I can guarantee you that I'd definitely give shit away. Don't believe, come over and find out.
  2. A few thoughts: -I am liking my Notre Dame > B12 bet less now that Stanford lost. Though I still think the B12 ends up canceling itself out with cannibalism. -Pac12's chance at playoff look effectively dead at this point. -if Notre Dame gets in, that is sort of like 2 ACC teams getting in - which just seems kind of absurd -speaking of the ACC, North Carolina looks pretty good. -speaking of looking pretty good, I like Iowa's uniforms. -I only watched the first half of the OU-Baylor game, but man it was very chippy. It seemed clear that those teams did not like each other. Baylor comes across as kind of thuggish. Easy for me to not like them. -Oklahoma State is going to get clobbered by Oklahoma, and then B12 will be left in same situation again this year: it's best teams all have 1 loss. - Indiana, those guys cannot seem to win a close one.
  3. Totally country, bro. Straight farming it. Well, sort of. There is a lot of corn. And really mediocre internet service. Two acres, which is really not much at all but coming from Victorian Village it seems like a ranch.
  4. Nope, nothing sold yet. I will post up when I am headed over there to start selling the stuff. That will be either tomorrow or Sunday.
  5. However, if things play out the way you just described: -Baylor isn't hanging around in the rankings after two consecutive loses. Hell, they are undefeated and beating everyone by 100 and the committee doesn't even have them top 5. First chance the committee gets, Baylor is getting tossed. Thus, anyone beating Baylor is automatically devalued. -when Oklahoma beats TCU, that's the second loss in three weeks for TCU. Guess what happens to TCU? The committee - which already kind of hates them and all the B12 - banishes them as well. Byeeeeeeeeee horned froggieeeeeeesssssss -then when Oklahoma losses to Ok State, guess who has two losses? Yup, Oklahoma. With the other loss being to a dismal Texas team. So, you have the undefeated champion Oklahoma State, but all other teams with at least two losses in B12. I don't see how that resume bumps Oklahoma up over that 6th spot ranking. I think they just languish there, a victim of the B12's mediocrity. Again, I hope I'm wrong and they leapfrog ND. But I don't think I will be.
  6. But all the B12 teams that lose are going to be dropped in the rankings. So, you'll either have: Everyone beating everyone else round-robin style, which means they all suck; or One team beating the rest of the teams, which means the teams that lost suck and the team that beat them really isn't all that good. Also, technically, I think Oklahoma has the highest remaining SOS. However, that's misleading, because by the season's end those teams won't be ranked as high. B12 is doomed, I think. And this coming from someone who would love it for ND to be locked out of playoff. I hate them and think they should join a conference.
  7. Yeah, I totally understand what you mean, and I'm sorry that I don't have pics. Yes, I believe it does have a bottom, like this one (click the link). However, the one I have doesn't look like this one pictured. Rather, mine is a bit lighter wood and it's more rounded. Still a rectangle shape, though. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71ynmISk5KL._SL1500_.jpg I hope this helps. Let me know if it doesn't.
  8. Bama is going to lose to Auburn so you can stop fretting over it.
  9. Then click on my quote, respond yes, and name your stakes.
  10. Want to bet? I say a 1-loss Notre Dame gets a higher seed than a B12 team.
  11. Who are you going to bump from the current 4 if those current 4 win out? Not Clemson, who is a solid lock at #1, has the best eye test resume, and has the best win currently (over current #4). Not Alabama, who is sitting at #2, looks really good on paper and according to the eye, just pasted the #4 team, and will end up beating a (likely) high ranked Florida. Not Ohio State, which, as you've pointed out, will go through a pretty difficult schedule to end the season. And not Notre Dame, which, quite frankly, probably has the best resume of any team out there. Their win against Navy is looking better and better with each week, and especially after Navy smoked an undefeated (and media Cinderella/darling) Memphis. They also handled Temple and USC. Their only loss came to the #1 team at the #1 team's stadium in a hurricane. Given that resume, and the intangibles (Notre Dame is a cashcow up there along with Ohio State and Texas), I don't see Notre Dame getting jumped by anyone in the B12. Jive is on to something: Clemson vs. Notre Dame rematch in first semifinal, Ohio State vs. Bama rematch in other semifinal, and then the championship game (regardless of which two teams it is) would break all kinds of ratings records.
  12. UNC is playing pretty well right now. They could upset Clemson. That early loss against SCar is VaTech-esque. If Clemson wins out, they are in. If Notre Dame wins out, they are in. If Ohio State wins out, they are in. If Alabama wins out, they are in. I do not see any other team displacing any of those four teams if those four teams win out. The B12 is either going to cannibalize each other OR if one team wins out (Ok State, Baylor, or Oklahoma, take your pick), it will just create the impression that all the other teams in the B12 were over-ranked and over-valued. Meaning, I think the B12 is doomed regardless of what they do. Also, them not having a championship game also hurts their cause. If Iowa wins out, I think Iowa takes Ohio State's spot, provided Ohio State makes it to B10 title game. If Ohio State loses to either Michigan or MSU, then all locks for B10 in playoff are off. Meaning, Ohio State has to make it to title game for a B10 team to make it into the playoff. That team will either be Ohio State or Iowa. Michigan State would have an outside chance of making the playoff if it beats Ohio State and then an undefeated, highly ranked Iowa. Stanford will take Notre Dame's spot if they beat Notre Dame and then win the Pac12. If Clemson loses, then I think it opens the door for a B12 team. If Clemson loses, then I think the ACC gets shut out of playoff. The only team from the SEC other than Alabama that can make the playoff is Florida. I think Florida takes Alabama's spot if Florida wins out and beats Bama in title game.
  13. Great little sidebar, doughnut king. I feel like this brings us a lot closer. Thanks for the sharing.
  14. I don't have a pic of the coffee table. I tried searching for one that looks like mine, and couldn't find anything that looks like it. So, you'll just have to use your imagination: picture a pretty plain coffee table that someone you kind of know is selling for $10. As your mental picture becomes clearer, you realize that this cannot be the greatest coffee table ever constructed, as it's only $10. Namaste
  15. No chairs with the table, no. You will have to provide your own chairs for this table. Or stand and eat, which might be a nice way of burning off some of those excess calories, you fatty.
  16. Sorry, sold. Bannister still available, however.
