Spread was bigger for that game

than both Murray State and Utah State, which means more people were betting on Purdue then they were letting onto.

That being said, they got an extremely lucky bounce off a total brick FT only up 3, and didn’t miss a FT the rest of the way.

Pick one star/celebrity who is not a family member that you would choose to raise from the dead. Upon revival, they assume their form from the moment they died, which means you don’t necessarily get them in the prime of their life. You get 10 more years of that person after you raise them up.

heh...

Time interviews founder of 4chan:

4chan’s community can be very powerful. Can they be controlled?
.
Well, last year they voted me as Time’s most influential person of the year, but the community can also be very fickle. For example, I didn’t know about the Time Magazine stunt until it was well underway. If I asked the community to do this, they would have done everything in their power to make sure that I was at the bottom of that list — that’s just the way they work. I like to leave them to their own devices.

The “leave them to their own devices” just cracked me up.
