Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Yeah I dated a girl in high school that went over there for a couple months one summer in a foreign exchange thing. She said that they take baseball serious. When she was over there the school league playoffs and she said they would get out of school on game days and there would be huge crowds there for the games.

I should add a Knicks game at MSG and also a Rangers game at MSG. Go Rangers! (my adopted team that I decided to root for this season, yes even before I knew they would be good.)

Back when I was a student, I made the road trip to every big ten arena for a BB game. Since then they have closed some.. and added some new teams, so I would like to visit the following for a Purdue basketball game to recomplete my list.
Kohl Center
Value City Arena
Bryce Jordan Center
and whatever Nebraska's arena is called.

I got to see the Boilers win basketball NC #2 (first NCAA NC) in San Jose in '99. We waited around to see them cut down the nets.

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

Haha, I like it.

Watching Tebow lead a 4th-quarter comeback in Denver would be pretty cool as well.

I've been to Assembly Hall, Memorial Stadium (huh?), Busch Stadium (old and new), Paul Brown Stadium (twice), the Kentucky Derby a few times, and Lambeau Field.


The to-do list includes: IU/UK at IU, a Cardinals playoff game, Bonnaroo (while I'm still young, this year is sick), a Raiders game, Red Hot Chili Peppers at the Yum! Center, Mardi Gras, any IU basketball tournament game, I want to go to Derby again, Lambeau again, and hope to see Metallica while they're still together.

Luckkkkkkky.

I have rocked out to Metallica tooo many times :). My stock car stereo does not do Kirk Hammett and Lars justice. I would kill to see "No Leaf Clover" performed with the symphony.


If Rage Against the Machine or Nirvana were still together, those would also be on my bucket list.

Also, still haven't met coach Crean yet. Would love to get the chance for that.


Side note: I also have a free trip to Vegas to use sometime this year with free air fare (3 days, 2 nights). Never been to Las Vegas, so that should be fun. I just hope I find a legitimate job between now and the deadline for me to use it so I can actually afford to go!

I guess I should add that I'd like to go to every Big Ten basketball arena and football stadium.

So far for basketball arenas, I've been to Assembly Hall (IU,) Assembly Hall (Illinois,) Mackey Arena and Value City Arena.

For football, I've been to Memorial Stadium (IU,) Memorial Stadium (Illinois,) Ross Ade stadium, Camp Randall, Michigan Stadium and Ohio Stadium.
