surprised Izzo / MSU didn’t box and one and try to limit his touches
apparently he / they did not think this kid - the ‘little kid’ (John Calipari reference) - could control and dominate the game as he did
my guess is he would consider box and one or least face guard the guy ... something ... if they played again

My family had a Plymouth when I joined it. A sedan. Two parents and 6 kids in a 54 Plymouth sedan. Obviously, that was before seatbelts.

The only "muscle car" I had was a 67 Mustang 4 speed, 289. I did have a 66 LeMans, a 69 LeMans, a 63 Grand Prix and a 65 Grand Prix but they weren't muscle cars, per se.

There are folks here who, I imagine, will never unmask. It's become an article of clothing. I see them out walking, or riding a bike or moto, miles from nowhere, masked. Many in useless cloth masks. Fear, Fear and Loathing. Many of these same folks use their phones as an article of clothing while operating their motorcycles. And I have to believe while operating their cars too, though I can't see it from the vantage point of my bike. Driving, in and of itself, is just too damned boring.

A bunch of people I know got drenched unexpectedly at the Rose Bowl last night. I might have been one of them, but an urgent need to replace our doggie door kept me home.

I finally removed that cassette that wouldn't let me use the third from the bottom. Upside down, right side up, that one just wasn't available It was a 7 speed. I put on a 9 speed because that's what I had at hand. I suppose I could now have some chain issues, with the chainrings still being 7 speed. I really don't understand how these things work, in detail. I know it has to do with the spacing between the plates vs the thickness of the cogs, but I am unaware of the parameters involved. I have a new 8 speed chain here, and all the rest are 7 speed, as far as I know. I rarely throw a chain away.

Actually, the chainrings are vintage 1980, so they could be six speed. ?Quien sabe?

Latitude and Longitude. 
What’s your Township and Range location relative to the nearest Principal Meridian?
