Yes. When it comes to this form of apparel, practical has become code for sans breast cones (ignoring a sea of other impractical features) ... which is fine.

That armor is sweet indeed. But I’m really confused about in what context this would be ‘practical’? Is this code for amor-without-boobs? If that’s what it is — ok—I’m on board, but let’s not stretch out “practical” so much .... we may need to use it again someday.

“As Ken notes, the scam is here that you don’t actually know what toy you’re getting until you buy it and crack it open, which would be a deterrent for any adult who has ever gone onto Priceline but is like fucking crack to a little kid.”

If the coach had been a woman, or if the player had been a ‘dude’ — the entire reaction would have been much more drastic — not a passive-egressive non-shove.

Thanks for the optimism but when it comes to underwhelming — IU will find a way.

Perhaps, not this year (Baylor, SC, FL), but I find it hard to believe that Kansas and Kentucky — two colossally talented programs — don’t just accidentally win their respective conferences most years.

I always thought there was a special kinship between us — you know, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, and Nebraska — all the states where Abraham Lincoln was born.

Also, and not that anyone cares, but Indiana bears no ill will for Illinois (that I know of).

Exactly. I have received this email. More than once, actually.

Excellent question.

I know. I know.

Sure .... and I guess being technically correct is the best kind of correct.

I thought this game came out 12 days ago?

Couldn’t have said it better.

Calculon is NEVER out of work.

That’s Crean. Otherwise we’d have a Big Ten championship and a Sheeva.

I’m not a religious person, but I would offer myself as a human sacrifice to the god(s)(ess)(esses) if IU could talk Brad Stevens into leaving Boston to coach for the Hoosiers. 

Kinsey Institute invented fireworks.
