Lots on the line tonight for both programs with a win. PURDUE: ▪️Stays alive for a 1 seed with INDY as its regional. ▪️In play for 3 straight B10 titles. ▪️Becomes one of the top-10 winningest programs of all time, knocking out lil bro. Indiana: ▪️Would move up a seed line in the NIT. ▪️Would help secure a spot in the BIg Ten Tourney.

In 1897, American engineers pulled off one of the biggest feats in architectural history: They built a full-scale replica of the Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee. But it's not just any replica - Here's the full story: 🧵

Oregon’s C Nate Bittle said in the postgame press conference that this was their largest home crowd in his 4 years (12,364). He went on to say opposing fans never traveled like that (Purdue’s) in the Pac-12. The PURDUE effect. 🚂🏀

Lame take. Also, anyone who uses the term "unnecessary luxury" probably considers dictionaries unnecessary as well.

Pretending that the heated steering wheel is anything other than an extremely unnecessary luxury is an outright lie. No one felt like they needed it before, and you don’t need it now. 3/5

My argument is simple: people who say they want to see a return of American manufacturing don't actually vote with their dollar. Let me show you. 🧵

Based on your logic we should just give up local manufacturing and send everything overseas because child labor is cheaper than US labor? That we don’t need to manufacture anything locally? That’s quite a ignorant argument How come every other country has protectionism?
