Re: Rams Acquire Myles Garrett.
Wow, interesting... I don't know if I'd have much to tell myself I didn't already know even then. Maybe some stock tips. But honestly... I remember as like a 14 year old thinking, girls were going to be my ruin.
I was listening to blues records back then. Like Born under a Sign, the line, wine and women is all I crave, big legged woman gonna carry me to my grave, had this profound effect on me. I remember telling my mother, she got a laugh.

Re: Rams Acquire Myles Garrett.
I think everyone loved those Oilers....Stabler and Campbell. I also rooted for the Steelers some back then, because I hated the Cowboys. Never a Red Sox guy, but loved the Steve Garvey, Dusty Baker, Ron Cey, Pedro Guerrero Dodgers! Loyola Marymount was fun, but I was a UNVL guy. Damn those teams were fun to watch.
That game was a lot of fun, and so was watching Duke get trounced!The most famous high-scoring matchup between UNLV and Loyola Marymount (LMU) occurred on March 25, 1990, when the No. 1 ranked Runnin' Rebels defeated the 11th-seeded Lions 131-101 in the NCAA West Regional Final (Elite Eight).
The combined 232 points make it one of the highest-scoring games in NCAA Tournament history.
Game Context & Statistics
This Elite Eight clash pitted two of the fastest-paced, highest-scoring teams in college basketball history against each other.
The Setting: Played at the Oakland Coliseum Arena in Oakland, California.
Historical Significance: This tournament run was incredibly emotional for Loyola Marymount, as it came shortly after the tragic passing of star player Hank Gathers.
Team Totals: UNLV shot an astonishing 65 percent from the floor.
Standout Player Performances
Both rosters were absolutely loaded with talent, resulting in massive individual stat lines:
UNLV (131 points):Anderson Hunt: 30 points, 13 assists, and 6 steals.
Stacey "Plastic Man" Augmon: 33 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists.
Larry Johnson: 20 points and 18 rebounds.
Greg Anthony: 21 points and 8 assists.
Loyola Marymount (101 points):Bo Kimble: 42 points and 11 rebounds (famously shooting his signature left-handed free throws to honor his late teammate, Hank Gathers).
Jeff Fryer: 21 points.
Terrell Lowery: 18 points off the bench.
Following this historic win, UNLV went on to the Final Four and blew out Duke 103-73 to capture their only NCAA National Championship in program history.
