I dont ever watch Wheel of Fortune. But, thats retarded. You dont get to win the money youve accumulated from the game just by winning? What do you get out of winning then?vball10set;1605126 wrote:Guys, he didn't lose a mil, he just lost the chance at winning a million (he'd have to get to the bonus round, solve the puzzle, and then hope the wedge he landed on was the million dollar wedge).

You get the money you accumulate if you win each round. So if you solve the puzzle you get that money you have built up. The other players don't get theirs.Laley23;1605140 wrote:I dont ever watch Wheel of Fortune. But, thats retarded. You dont get to win the money youve accumulated from the game just by winning?

They have the million wedge, you get the wedge to take to the bonus round if you make it. They then put in a million dollar card in the bonus round wheel. You land on it, solve the bonus puzzle, you win a million.

If the other 2 people haven't won a puzzle or a toss up puzzle, they walk away with like a grand or 2 just for being on the show.

Is McGary still deciding, or is he for sure staying?

Very disappointing way to see McGary go...

I'm sure it was more than once, lol. But suspended for a year? Noah Spence tested for ecstasy and got 3 games. A year for weed is insane really.vball10set;1609113 wrote:lol, he only tried in one time and just happened to get randomly tested after it, and then gets suspended for a year? riiiiight

Not sure what you mean? First time he smoked....duh, no. But run in with NCAA yes. The minimum suspension for failing a drug test is 1 year.Midstate01;1609086 wrote:Gotta imagine that wasn't his first run in with the ncaa then.

Noah Spence was able to prove that it was possible he didn't take it knowingly.WebFire;1609151 wrote:I'm sure it was more than once, lol. But suspended for a year? Noah Spence tested for ecstasy and got 3 games. A year for weed is insane really.
Also the NCAA didn't suspend Spence, the B1G did.

Right, and the NCAA penalty for weed is harsh. Why would the NCAA not enforce a rule when a team or league had results in hand?wildcats20;1609157 wrote:Noah Spence was able to prove that it was possible he didn't take it knowingly.

Anyway, it's his fault anyway. He knew the rule, and he did it anyway. Probably never thought he'd get picked since he wasn't even playing.

I'm not saying the penalty wasn't harsh, it has since been dropped to half a season; but the comparison is not accurate.
The NCAA didn't test Spence. They tested McGary.

Spence more than likely would have been suspended an entire season had it been the NCAA who tested him. I can't seem to find the penalty for performance enhancing drugs, since that is what he technically tested positive for.

Yes, I know. But how in the world does a kid test negative and not face any NCAA penalties, when it clearly violates their rule.wildcats20;1609163 wrote:I'm not saying the penalty wasn't harsh, it has since been dropped to half a season; but the comparison is not accurate.

Also, what is worse? Smoking a joint at a party, or driving while drunk. The latter gets 1-3 games tops from the team, and nothing from the NCAA.

The only thing that was "negative" was his family saying Noah never took a PED.
