Wish I still worked in the landmark building, there are some great views of downtown and the new park from there.

Got just under 1” in Bellevue. This has to be the most in one storm since last summer.

What a great moment for Green, his rebounding really made the difference

skinzfan23

Not that it is bad but I wonder if they are still planning on upgrading the video board anytime in the next few years. The old one was replaced after 10 years bc they stated that technology needs to be updated about that often to keep up. I have seen a ton of other arenas get massive boards and thin...

What a game, down 4 with 28 sec to go and they win in 2OT. Everyone contributed tonight it was so good to see. Jason Green gets my player the game He had a career high, nine rebounds, and that huge put back dunk,

I’m just amazed at how these guys don’t give up!

skinzfan23

Baylor had a step back shot with nine seconds left to send the game to overtime

skinzfan23

What a game, 1 pt with 4 to go. Trey is getting owned all night. Need to get the ball inside to Kalk these next few mins

skinzfan23

Ashworth hit a three with one second left before half Creighton is up 36–34, feels like Creighton should be up 10 to 15 points with all the rebounds they’ve had but they keep jacking threes and missing.

skinzfan23

Hope the Jays come out like Thursday and get the ball inside to Kalk to start.

Not to mention that every single game is televised. Back in the Valley maybe 5-6 per year were on tv and usually ESPN, which really sucks anymore. The amount of money that CU gets just from tv deals makes it worth it financially, but exposure to the eastern US is amazing as well.

I was just talking with some fans yesterday. I think the only thing I miss about the Missouri Valley days is arch madness in St. Louis and being able to drive to away games.

skinzfan23

Haha yes 8:40 CT

skinzfan23

Jays play at 8:40 CST on Saturday.

skinzfan23

Oregon is playing well and could be dangerous but for once Kalk is going up against a big guy and that can’t shoot outside so he will be anchored in the post like CU likes. Should help our guards out some as well since they can guard the 3 closer and let players drive knowing Kalk is back there.

I was thinking the same thing, probably just a few more floors.

Uffda wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 3:56 pm That was a very sloppy game by the Jays. They shot well but man the turnovers and bone-head plays could have cost them.

Yes, looking at the box score Creighton dominated the game. It’s just that they had 14 turnovers which can’t happen against a better team.

skinzfan23

Good win for the Jays today, glad they finally pulled away. It would’ve been nice to get the starters some more rest.

skinzfan23

I wish they would clean up that public parking area. When we were down there just 2 weeks ago, there is broken glass everywhere, and bums sleeping under the layer of the parking area.

skinzfan23

At least according to wowt the second half of next week looks fine, pretty close to normal and low to mid 50’s.

Just watched the segment from KETV tonight about the beam signing and Stothert said there is much more to come for Omaha development. No specifics provided but between this and her recent segment on grow Omaha, she has me excited.

Man, I thought selling the Omaha March madness tickets for a huge gain would be way easier. I was trying to list them as all-session on tickpick but no one is buying.

If anyone would like to buy them, just let me know, I could save you a ton on fees....even if it is just for single game.

skinzfan23

I know that there are a ton of great players out there, but Kolek made 2nd team and Newton from Uconn made first team. Baylor is better than Newton is almost every single category.

skinzfan23

I vote that they should build this for the new control tower: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/61jgTh3pX2SxiZGggrUIb7getc17iN7eTnY-2JTGPOClwPtxoBTzjkX54waZTcX_zQ only joking, if anything, maybe they will update some of the technology they use in the control tower, but definitely not building ...

This is the area that I am most excited to see what the streetcar can do. We go to shows at the rose and that stretch of Farnam looks absolutely sad. Thankfully the hotels a few blocks down were built but this area leaves a lot to be desired. Also wish that they could tear out the building where the...

We just went there a few weeks ago for the first time in probably 4-5 years. I remember when they first opened, the prices were very low especially for the amt of food that you got. Like everywhere else that has changed. Still a decent value but nothing amazing like it used to be. The food overall w...

Yeah DePaul and Georgetown brought nothing to the conference. It is crazy that St Johns didn't make it. I believe their NET ranking is 32.

skinzfan23

Heck, even Pepperjax had a huge line when they opened their Bellevue location. Happens all the time with new to market places. We thought about going to Hawaiian Bros, but I think we will wait until it dies down.

Creighton's Baylor Scheierman now showing at March Madness

skinzfan23

Was hoping for a game in Salt Lake City, mostly because airfare is much cheaper from Omaha. I have Thurs and Fri off and was thinking of going but the cheapest round-trip is almost $900 which is pretty high for a domestic flight. Not to mention, hotel, food and game tickets it could add up really qu...

"The City Streets Department says this damage is likely happening when a polymer coating fails and comes off the road. Right now there is no timeline to fix it, but the bridge is still safe to drive on." Seems like that coating comes off every bridge they put it on? What is the point of i...

Most streetcars have a max speed of 30-35 mph, some can go up to 45. I just think when you do research (and even listen to how the streetcar in Omaha is being funded) as much as it seems like a no-brainer, that is a long stretch that probably isn’t going to lead to more development. If that is the c...

I believe so, in that second picture you can see they put up a number 6, and then there is another floor visible and the latest one under the slip form.

36 more to go!!!

Sweet, when did those go up?

Not sure we went by today on our way to the Luminarium.
