Whew...I stayed up to watch the S.U. vs. UCONN BIG EAST tournament game last night. Anybody else watch it? 5 overtime periods!

S.U. has some real low character players, but I still like to support the school.

LETS
GO

ORANGE!!

Ya I had to stay up and watch it...after the third overtime, I knew it was going to be an epic game. By the way, the game actually went into 6 overtimes, but it was a great game nonetheless!

 

[sun city hunter]

Truly a great game, kept me up a lot later than I had planned. I recorded the end of the game and all of the overtimes so my wife could see it. I imagine West Virginia expects a tired group on the court this evening.

spearcrow- thanks for the correction. I was really fighting to stay awake, and I was reminded this morning after I posted that it was 6 not 5.
If I was Jim B., I would let the players sleep til noon, and then schedule some jacuzzi time, massage therapy and accupuncture today.

I hear ya Rob...those guys deserve it. It's one of those games where it is just a shame that one team has to lose.

 

[Smithfan]

This will undoubtedly make enemies...but: who cares? Most of the people playing college and pro basketball these days are low characters from the ghetto.

Why should anyone spend the money to watch what is, most of the time, a meaningless pro game?

Let the flames begin...but that's how I feel.

I feel you, Smithfan. I despise NBA games. For some reason, college games are much more exciting. These young men play not for pay, but for pride and such. A very small amount of them go on to play professional.

The Orangemen do have their character flaws. Devendorf is a thug from Detroit who hits women. I've met Flynn on 3 vehicle stops, and he is a rude a-hole. To me, Harris looks like a bright, positive person.

We've all got flaws, I'm not trying to be judgemental, but facts are facts.

 

[badguybuster]

Yep, and last night they handed my Mountaineers a butt whoopin too. Darn it!

Rob,

You might be right on the thug part, but let me add this...during his last legal troubles....the young woman making the accusations did not have a mark on her and County DA Fitzpatrick did not charge Devendorf on that...the only discipline was issued by an SU board of his "peers"...fellow SU students...which, I believe, was overturned with the condition he did community service.

If a guy Eric's size punched a woman, wouldn't there be some evidence? I'm just askin'. If I'm not right about any of that, please feel free to correct me...not saying I know the whole story.

Eric tries to act "ghetto" or "gangsta", I hate that style, and he has too many tattoos for my taste, but I still hope Syracuse kicks Louisville's butt tonight.

but I still hope Syracuse kicks Louisville's butt tonight. Big Grin

Hope all you want. That won't change a thing. You see how well that's working out for Obama.

Louisville Cardinals all the way!

I'll put my UofL thugs against anybody else's thugs tat for tat.

Whew! My guys thought all they had to do was show up. Damn that Deverdorf can shoot. Go Cards!

 

[Farmer17]

You can talk about absolutely anything in the lounge.... dogs, cooking, cars, vacations, nose hairs, dowels, school buses. But if you bring up college or pro athletics somebody's gonna take the time to throw a turd in your punch bowl. It amazes me that Smithfan would go to the trouble to hijack the thread and threaten to make enemies instead of just ignoreing it.

 

[model10]

well if i see a turd in the punch bowl i can awsleays take a hit out of my flask i konow its a blend of good whiskey scewer the outher crap

 

[mesell22]
