Highlander?

No, I am actually of German descent.

And you?

[Cdizzle]

Oh, thats just what I naturally assumed this thread was about.

[Dawgbit]

Guess you thought wrong my man.:innocent:

By the way, sure hope the "Highlander" is not anything like the "Shocker".

If so, I decline your offer.

If true, I sure wouldn't want any part of a "High Hander" either... that could be very painful. :naughty:

This would have gone over so much better with a different crowd......... yet here on the Valley messageboard......death.

Yeah, SIU has been notorious for getting owned in Arch Madness by CU. Not very good memories haha, especially that one blowout in Korvers/Kent William's senior years.

[doinit salukistyle]

I remember ESPN's Sports Guy had a revange ratings article, where he went from 0.0 to 10.0

0.0 was rocky in rocky v, because the movie never happened, thus being disqualified
10.0 being Keyser Soze's in Usual Suspects...

I have thought about this game a lot...as much as I would like to treat it like Rocky V, Godfather III, or Club Dread, the revenge factor was too great

After an emotional loss of having to hear "Korver swallows", Kent Williams doing a cheap shot against a BJ player, causing the BJ player to retaliate, and getting a "T" called on the BJ player, the nail of the coffin havin Williams shoot that 3 over Korver, losing conference championship, and having those d-bags talk crap Korver's parents after the game.......and then coming into St Louis, and shutting up us Saluki fans...I have never seen saluki fans so quiet in my life...that revenge factor has to be in the 9's somewhere

bravo cu, bravo...now excuse me while I throw up the Little caesars i was eating :puke:

[DoubleJayAlum]

I have never seen saluki fans so quiet in my life...

That reminds me of the chant directed at the SIU students at last year's conference tourney after the Jays took a big lead:

Why So Quiet?

I saw several SIU fans even crack a smile :grin:

[smsandmsuson]

Found it pretty interesting and nice to see that MSU has sent SIU the most loses over the past 10 years. :bears:

"There is only One" is the theme of the movie "Highlander". You would have to see the movie to understand

Come on now, have you seen your shocker mascot? :original:

You know, when I made my avatar bet during the tournament, i didnt intend on mocking the team I was putting in my avatar. in fact, i thought the intent was respect.

actually there is more than one, there are a lot of them. but in the end, "there can be only one"

great show...

What is the movie about? Or are you forbidden to tell? Is there some top-secret, Highlander Club thing? Do you guys dress up as Highlander characters before you go to your top-secret, Highlander Club meetings? What gives?

[MoValley John]

Nevermind. Looked Highlander up on imdb. Not Sci-fi but fantasy. Different Genre, same dorks. The joke would have gone over huge on this site: http://www.tk421.net/character/ .

Now that is a man's dog.

[iSASO]

That dog "walks and talks" high-major. Tell me, is it a Pit Bull or a German Shepherd? Must be a new breed of one of those lines as it looks a little thin but we have been assured that it is just as vicious as a Pit or a Shepherd so we have no choice but to blindly believe it. Nevertheless, it surely strikes fear in the hearts of all who lay eyes upon it.

C'mon Dawgie, put down the your saxaphone and try to keep up. It's not that difficult.

How much MORE cornpone can you get than the moronic, backwoods, straight off the combine Shocker mascot??? :fear:


Would you care to elaborate how the cigarette butts have down vs. the elegant hounds recently? Or would that be interjecting too much reality into this??:bash:

WE ARE RELEVANT!!:banana:


You are nothing but background noise.

[iSASO]

Recently? You want recently? Within the last hour WSU absolutely dominated SIU in 3 straight games in volleyball.

[Mc Bulldog]

How is the body guard Isaso?

[iSASO]

A strapping young lad now, nearly 3 years old, he can count to 10, sing his ABC's and has every car in the collection from the Disney movie "Cars". He loves Thomas the Train and asks to watch the Aloha from Hawaii Elvis Presley concert from 1972 after his bath.

We are now in the "Why Daddy?" stage. He drills so deep into the why's of the world that I have to explain photosynthesis and the origins of the solar system on a regular basis.

Thanks for asking, McB. That's just the tip of the iceburg, as you can well imagine. My little baby is now a little boy. It's going so fast. I am looking forward to our first trip to the MVC Tourney someday.

Cute kid!

Strap his right arm behind his back and start teaching him a left handed fast ball, get him started early :)

all joking aside, 3 year olds are a blast. When they transition from "Why daddy?" to "I dont like the answer I am getting from you so i am going to mommy" you lose some of that innocence that 3 year olds display. roll with it now, you dont have alot of time.

Currently my 7 year old is bugging me to get her signed up for softball next year because she watches me play in my league.

Now I'm sick. I have a son the same age with the same interests (sans Elvis) as ISASO? ughhhhhh.....

[MoValley John]

I have 7, 5, 3 and 1 year-old sons. And a 14-year-old daughter. Boys are more fun and wayyyyyyy easier.

Just a little funny thing that happened this summer. The Monday a week after Memorial Day, my wife and I took the family to Adventureland for a day. A week before that, my 5-year old was at a birthday party at the Amazing Pizza Machine. Both the Amazing Pizza Machine and Adventureland have this kiddie ride called the Frog Hopper. Anyway, we were heading east on I-80 and I'm listening to my 7 (Josh) and 5 year-old (Aaron) talk. Josh asked Aaron if he rode the Frog Hopper when he was at the party. Aaron answered no. So Josh asked "Why not?" Aaron answered, "I was saving it for Adventureland" At which point, Josh, being the dickheadish older brother, retorted, "No, it's because you're a p-u-s-s-y!" My wife was outraged by the languge. I was red in the face trying not to laugh out loud! Internally, I was laughing my arse off! My wife made me explain that this was a vulgar term and boys shouldn't talk this way. I got through the talk, but it was awfully hard to do with a straight face.

[iSASO]

Ah, those unforgettable moments. My wife inadvertantly taught my nearly 3-year-old to say "the s-word" followed by my name. I announced right then that she was on the 'bad word scoreboard' and was leading 1-0. I suspect I may tie the score someday, but I didn't ring the bell first.

[dakyne]

Imagine that: a WSU fan declaring SIU is entering an abyss.

Another WSU fun making fun of SIU's mascot.

I've heard it all now...

When my son was 5 my wife started getting on him one day about not picking up his toys.

He said, "Mom, quit busting my balls."

Guess who got the blame for that one?:lol:
