You are a Jayhawks fan so you have that to tide you over through March. After that the Royals will start playing around the first week in April.

[Dayze]

I'm looking forward to the Royals being mathmatically eliminated from post-season play by mid-May.

2.8 billion years: Earth's surface temperature, even at the poles, reaches an average of ~420 K (147 °C, 296 °F). At this point life, now reduced to unicellular colonies in isolated, scattered microenvironments such as high-altitude lakes or subsurface caves, will completely die out.

[GloryDayz]

Has the newest Mayan calendar been printed? That's pretty important!

[Rasputin]

I don't like it starting on Friday night either


Well shit that's better than starting on Thursday night. Maybe I can plan a draft weekend after all? I hate it starting on Thursdays ruins the whole weekend.
