Nobody Can Beat the Texas Tech Meat Team
The competition, which was held at the at the 60th annual Reciprocal Meats Conference, had a quiz show format and it featured questions regarding things such as meat quality, biochemistry, and USDA regulations. In order to prepare for the competition the Texas Tech squad worked 10 hours a week for two and a half months. Bobby Knight had better hope his basketball team has a good year. He does not want to spend a season hearing how his players can't hold a candle to the school's meat team. --Eric Horowitz Hoosiers Skip Out on Cab Fare
Early Sunday morning the three men were taking a cab home from downtown Indianapolis. When they arrived at their destination they paid the cab driver $8 out of the $39 fare and told him they needed to go into their house to get the rest of the money. The players then got out of the cab and ran away. The cab driver called the police, and after searching the neighborhood and nearby woods, an officer eventually tracked the men to the house of one of their aunts. But wait, the idiocy didn't end there. When the officer arrived at the house the player who had paid the $8 told him that he had already paid his share of the fare. The officer then politely informed the player that $8 was not 1/3 of $39. All three players were eventually arrested for theft and taken to a county law enforcement facility. At least their coaches can be proud that they made it into the cab without incident (and that's more than Stephen Jackson can say). --Eric Horowitz  |
