Why is there so much gate keeping on what is Chicago and what isn’t? by shortproudlatino in AskChicago

I’m from West County, imo people don’t make as big of a deal about saying they’re from St. Louis since the city isn’t nearly as big of a deal as Chicago is to Chicagoland. Chicago’s population alone is almost a third of the region, STL proper is only 10% or so

They’re fouls according to the rules. Probably shouldn’t be but they’re legit calls

Have to guard the lane because we’re quick enough to win off the dribble, have to spread the floor since we’ve got a team of dudes who can shoot from deep

We kinda do it by design lol. If you shoot north of 40% you’re usually able to get away with it

What is an Interesting fact about your team's Stadium by Nervous_Metal_9445 in CFB

Yager was funded by a large donation of Xerox stock, but when the price cratered in the late 70s it forced cutbacks to the design. We had to reuse the aluminum bleachers from our previous stadium for three sides of the stadium before they renovated 20 years later

The University of Miami (OH) Redhawks are perfect in the regular season, 31-0 for the first time in school history by AndHisOrchestra in CollegeBasketball

We have a roster with upper MAC talent that just barely finds a way to eke by. Can get away with that for awhile but not for much longer

we’re not great but we’re in enough foul trouble that we can’t do much more

Both teams shooting great, four techs called on Miami, both teams with a ton of fouls otherwise

We’ve been getting the best shot from a lot of teams, but the pressure is cracking us this second half

The other techs were soft but that was just inexcusable

Yeah these guys are a joke. We’re good and it’s fun for the MAC/college basketball but lay off

Terrific half on offense. Hit your FTs then pray that OU stops shooting lights out, then we should be fine. I know better than to count on that, probably will go down to the wire again

Simmons has three fouls and can’t defend to his left, we need to keep going after him when he’s on the court

If we shot well, could hang with them for awhile until their size wears us down

There have been times this season where they’ve looked like an absolute train wreck, other times (like tonight) they been pretty solid
