Doesn't get much more blatant than those two plays

Valid point.

I only have one Hoo friend that I see maybe once a year...if we're ever discussing this, I'll just bring up UMBC, then punch him in the nose, and walk away before he can respond with the 2018-2019 story.

It may not be much to some, but with one municipal employee income (stay at home mom), tuition, mortgage, car payment, utilities, etc....I'm counting down the days, only one more preschool payment, then off to public school next year!

Mine goes to pre-K at a church, 4 days a week for 4 hours a day.

It's actually higher now forgot when I posted that, it was $160 a month when he was in the 3 year old class (3 days a week), the 4 year old class is $280/month

I don't think the issue is really setting aside $80 over 12 months....if you're looking at $7-10 a month, I'm thinking, hey that's six-pack, no big deal. When you're looking at shelling over $80+ all at once, that's not chump change...that's the new piece of brewing equipment I've been eyeballing for a while, that's half a month of my kids pre-school tuition, that's almost half of one of my wife's car payments.

I used to be huge into the NHL, for some reason, I kinda split with it about 10 years ago, quit following it altogether really. No real reason, I just stopped watching. I decided to make an effort this year at getting back to watching it. All the names and faces I used to know are long since gone (except maybe Jagr, that old fuck still playing?), and being a NC resident now, I have adopted the Hurricanes as my team. So, all that being said, Let's Go Canes!

This is still over your head.

I'm aware. Nothing going over my head, and frankly I see no need to be insulting because you think your point is too advanced for me to receive it. We see it differently. My apologies if my lowly naive view of the school simply sharing the praise that the new coach is receiving is below your advanced level of PR comprehension.

My point is that we interpret these tweets differently. I don't see either school using them to try to sell their hire to the fan base. People who know things about basketball are praising our (and a&m's) new coach. The tweeter at each school is just sharing the praise

I guess a&m had their work cut out, selling their Buzz Williams hire too...
