We are 3-0 v. Ohio teams.
Next game v. Ohio team.
One of these teams is not like the others.

BoGo Beer Night. Arrive early to avoid the lines.

Noteworthy:

Kobe Brea is 38 of 75 from three point range this year (.507).

DaRon Holmes is imposing. Besides averaging 18 and 7, he has 28 blocks this year. That is a lot of blocks at this point in the season.

Dayton has two loses-at Northwestern by 5 (N'western beat Purdue in Evanston) and to Houston by about 10 in the Charleston tourney (no shame there). They beat St John's and LSU in Charleston. Despite losing PG Malachi Smith, Dayton is a very good team.

Not sure I want to open conf play with the best team in the A10, but here we are.

ESPN says Dayton by 4.5 points. Over/under at 136.5

They show Holmes and Skogman as the highlighted players. Maybe they haven't heard. Or maybe he's available tonight. I guess we'll find out around 6:30.

What is Tasting Glass?

[i77cat]

You get a little glass to sample beers.

Which of these two players do you think might not be available tonight?

Ursa's wife sponsored a wine and cheese tasting party at Emanon in '76-'77. She got a small payment and could keep the leftover open bottles of wine and opened cheese. No one received tasting glasses at that event.

It was better attended than our monthly ice cream parties. People did not walk back to their dorm/houses in a straight line.

(Ursa was not married as an undergrad. Ursa, his current spouse, bagelcat, and I were members of Emanon in '76-'77.)

Are we allowed to talk about why Skogs is questionable?
I have no idea.

[stevelee]

Are we allowed to talk about why Skogs is questionable?
I have no idea.

We question his availability because he didn’t play in the last game and most if not all of us don’t know why.

[i77cat]

I've heard some things. Like all of us, he's day-to-day. Two have told me foot, one said ankle. We'll see in about 3 hours.

Are we allowed to talk about why Skogs is questionable?
I have no idea.

My rule is: if our coaches aren't talking about it publicly, then neither do I.
