This and That

Will there be a rematch after #1 Ohio State beat #2 Michigan last weekend? I don’t think it will happen provided either USC or Florida (and possibly Arkansas) wins out. The result eliminates Notre Dame’s title hopes because there’s no way they can let a team that lost by 21 to Michigan at home in [...]

On behalf of 5’9 guys everywhere, I’d like to give a big shout out to Nate Robinson for his block on 7’5 center Yao Ming. It’s a thing of beauty.

We went hiking with Ben this weekend at Starved Rock State Park in Utica, Illinois. Then, we spent the night at his parents’ house in nearby Ottawa. We ate at a local pizza place, Bianchi’s, (great!) and watched Two for the Money (not so great). Overall a great time and some nice scenery! I’ve put [...]

How You Like Dem Apples?

If Karl Rove is supposed to be the architect of a permanent Republican majority, then last night he pulled off an architectural feat not seen since the construction of the New Orleans levees. For three elections he was Bush’s election zen master. Last night…not so much. In case you missed it, the Democrats gained control [...]

How Do You Make Voting Decisions?

Posted on 5 November 2006
( Matt's Posts andNews and Politics )

As we got our sample ballot in the mail this week, it strikes me that making informed decisions in the voting process is obscenely difficult. There’s just way to many candidates and questions that I don’t feel that I have sufficient information to make an informed decision. So, my question is: what recommendations do you [...]

What Happened to the Buckeyes?

Posted on 5 November 2006
( Clemson andIllinois andMatt's Posts andOhio State andOur Life andPhotos andSports )

That’s what we were wondering after going to see the Buckeyes and Illini play. In case you missed it, the Buckeyes made it out of Champaign with a 17-10 victory. The only answer we could come up with was that Ohio State was trying to avoid injury and limiting their play calling to avoid showing [...]
