@flagstafffilms @uniformcritic No sleeve patch on left arm and Lew Riggs taking BP narrows it to 1941 I believe.

@MarkPotash Flashback to arguments over whether that spinner was on the line or in a hit or out box.

@champwebdotnet Also, Myles Rowe. We were there and watched him closely. He ripped through that field in no time. One of the most impressive drives I have witnessed.

@champwebdotnet Gotta be Ganassi strategy gamble not working. It’s so rare when that happens that it’s shocking. Honorable mention to big nights for ECR and JHR. Little guys making noise is fun.

@champwebdotnet I can’t mash the like button on this comment hard enough.

@flagstafffilms @Cardinals I believe it’s 1950. Looks like Eddie Miller and Marty Marion taking infield practice for the Cards. Country Slaughter batting after Musial. Newk pitching to Campy.

@Super70sSports This song is Van Halen’s high water mark. The essence of Diamond Dave fronted VH.

@ChristopherHine I hope the Wolves recognize they got a good one. Ayo turned around Illinois basketball and deserved better than the mess he got stuck with in Chicago.

@JWerner247 I like the way they did the Anthem. Athletes from the competing schools > some random recording artist.

@BSmile The power of music is remarkable. Just hearing the first few notes instantly took me back to my childhood. TWIB and Baseball Digest were my portals to the magic of MLB. Good times!

@Champaign_Room I remember in 1989 thinking after beating Louisville and Syracuse that a Michigan team we already beat twice would be the easy path to the championship game. Take nothing for granted.

@Strandjunker This kind of proves the Democrats point right? ICE already has money to operate so pull it out of the DHS funding bill. TSA and the rest could be funded now with near unanimous bipartisan support.

@Super70sSports 1989 Flying Illini!

@Acyn Says the network who has fallen in love with John Fetterman. 🙄

@champwebdotnet I thought I heard them say they had to go to Rahal’s pit box to get another gun. If that is accurate, isn’t it odd that each team wouldn’t have a spare gun in their pit?

[Chris Calvin @ChrisCalvin1908]

@champwebdotnet I only voted good instead of great to register my complaint about all the commercials. The racing itself was outstanding. When IndyCar gets the package right on a short oval it’s the best racing out there.

@Super70sSports Today that glorious team would get penalized into oblivion. I’m glad I got to live this before football went soft.

[Chris Calvin @ChrisCalvin1908]

@mrwagner25 Is this the quarterfinals? I thought the winner of this game advanced to the QF.

@atrupar I’d like my money back from Rick Scott please. Thank you.
