  1. Here let me help you. And I don’t blame the players. They didn’t want to be there tonight.
  2. All considered that start is fine. Just win this one, put today behind us and then going forward this team will continue to move away from Beard and go play basketball.
  3. Beard is the one that supposedly has the audio recording that might show that he was not the primary aggressor. The only mention of the choking is the part where they mention difficulty breathing which came from her statement. They don’t mention any physical marks/bruises or evidence in the neck area. The bite mark is disconcerting but the rest can probably be explained away as self defense. Clearly there was a physical confrontation. It reads like a bad relationship that got physical, not like a habitual wife beater. I doesn’t read like he was seriously trying to hurt her. He should and will be fired. Cant see any way he retains his job. On to the game thread and then the coaching search thread.
  4. I read that as he told the police he had them, but would not share them with the reporter. Who fucking knows in the day of twitter news.
  5. Well if he does want to maintain his innocence, that statement will help him if he didn’t do anything. She should have all kinds of marks/bruises/scrapes that will be documented or not.
  6. Man that is going to be a weird atmosphere at the game tonight. Enjoy Moody it’s an amazing arena. I used Uber and it worked well so no help on parking.
  7. No kidding. From what I could make out the only new info was that there is a TRO in effect and he is allowed to call and text her and I assume that is standard.
  8. Once again, I was responding to the “fire him TODAY!!!!!” posts. It’s stupid and not how things work. I’d guess a suspension is coming pretty quick. Ive already said I believe the most likely outcome is that Beard will never coach here again. And it’s the right thing. On the very minuscule chance that this is a complete misunderstanding then he keeps his job. And that outcome also means that a) nobody was abused and b) I can go back to worrying about fishing instead of this shit. Win/win for everyone.
  9. Well I would hope he wouldn’t fire me less than 12 hours after I was arrested before he knew the facts. That’s what I was responding to. It’s a stupid take.
  10. This is regarded. The University has already made a statement and will handle this appropriately. I’m glad I never had a bunch of y’all on this thread as my boss.
  11. No. There’s a hotshot 911 call. What was happening during the call who knows. You ever been choked/choking? You’re not going to make a phone call. Did he choke/restrict breathing at some point before or even after that? We don’t know but seems possible or even likely. He should and will be gone when enough facts are out. I agree it seems unlikely he keeps his job barring a miracle set of circumstances.
  12. Why do you keep bringing up alcohol in relation to this incident? I mean I realize 99% of this thread is speculation but at least there is some tweet or rumor or whatever to base that speculation on. You seem to be just going off of time of night?
  13. No kidding. No buoy, doesn’t check the surface as he goes up. Fucking idiot. He least he is admitting it was his fault at the end of the video and not freaking out at the boat driver.
  14. well shit if I had known that I wouldn’t have bought tickets. I’m still up in the air on timing. If you want to go I can drive up the 29th and come back the 30th. I’ll give you a shout this weekend. I was going to ride up with a friend and then probably rent a car to come back. I’ll talk to him and see what we can work out.
  15. I’m going to the game so I’d be in. Doesn’t look like there’s much interest though? Might be simpler to just meet up at a bar before the game. I’ll buy the first round the rest is on Longboard Horn since he suggested it.
  16. So Uber worked great for the Creighton game. Dropped off an hour before tip-off maybe 100 yards away - northeast corner of Moody on Red River. Picked up at the same place right after the game ended, less than 10 minutes after requesting a ride. Getting out going north was easy. After the u-turn We were back downtown to our place in 10 minutes for 16 bucks.
  17. At some point in time and actually 2017, this was the display I ran into in Costa Rica at one of the local grocery stores. I’m pretty sure that was just after it had been banned here in the U.S. I wanted to tell them not to sell/drink it. I didn’t say a word.
  18. Their transition defense was outstanding. Our seats were behind the baseline on the corner so we had a great view of that all game long. Overall they are just a really well coached team but having no bench will be difficult for them to overcome. I’m a bit perplexed at our substitution pattern especially in the 2nd half but I’ll put that in the season thread and probably not until tomorrow.
  19. I think all the people that sit in those empty seats in your picture are just 100 feet back in the club that's right behind those sections. The seats fill in quick because those people don't have far to go before tip. Yeah definitely. They filled really fast and it was great to see. So did all the other seats around us and I suspect the 6 tip-off has a lot to do with it too. There are so many clubs and beverage options at Moody. It was weird seeing all the hard liquor concessions after so many years of going to games at the Drum. It was definitely fairly quiet most of the first half. Or at least it wasn’t what I was expecting. Second half was better. I think part of it was playing “Creighton” and despite what some others have said this year we still have a lot of fans that go to games as a social event and not to make a lot of noise. And the piped in music is almost as overwhelming and annoying as Godzillatron at football games. Still, a huge improvement over the Erwin Center. Row C. Seats 1-4. You might have seen when my Dad got a little irritated with a Creighton fan that was acting just fine.
  20. Right before tipoff I was worried about the crowd. The pic is just before they announced the starting lineups. It got better. Great time tonight and I have a few thoughts for later but now it’s time for a celebratory cocktail or 2 downtown. CD4B41FF-330D-4E05-971A-A92E7B68BEA4.MOV
  21. Yeah Uber from downtown was my suggestion. That sort of got shot down because they were worried it would be impossible to get one after the game. I think it would be fine? It’s not a non-mobile person. Just 75 and bad hips so walking far isn’t good. Thanks for the help assholes.
