Polls 2018-19

[Jim Hyla]

Did it ever mean anything?  Just curious.

Depends upon your definition of "mean".

I suspect you're mainly referring to the polls, which during the season I look at as an object for discussion.

I was also looking at the PWR, which now, since we have the brackets, are without much meaning.

Basically all of this has reverted to "much meaningless".

Don't confuse "utility" with "meaning." Leaching still has meaning, even though it's useless.

Not true. It still has some medical and certainly civil engineering use.

Leaching done right!

Alternately.

Wait a minute.  You guys are talking about LEECHING.  LEACHING is when the lead in your wine decanter comes out into the wine and gives you brain damage along with your liver damage. ::bolt::

Greg- that one is just commerce.

Can we talk about lychees instead?  More appetizing.

Polls are an attempt to determine the future by studying the past. I can't imagine a worse way for an athletic team to achieve success.

I sprained my knee rather badly when birdwatching in Borneo.  When we got to the ER, we discovered that a rather engorged leech was attached to my knee.  I truly believe it helped keep the swelling down.
