No, I’m not dead from all the good stuff.
Was at the in-laws for Thanksgiving. No one thought to tell me that their internet connection was fubar-red.
Went to the the Backyard Brawl on Friday then back to the in-laws. Got back home this evening.
Now, I have a night shift chat over at FanHouse to do. Stop on by.
Otherwise, I’ll be trying to restore some normalcy tomorrow.
Tyrell Biggs 0-2 from 3
Dixon 0-1 from 3
Young 0-1 from 3
We’ve taken 2 2-point baskets and made 1, fouled on 1. Each 3 is further away. WSU defense is dominating us so far.
If you’ve never had pneumonia, imagine having a chest cold that sodomizes your immune system to the point that every time you breath your lungs sound like they are taking bong hits. I caught it as a relatively in shape 25 year old and it beat my ass so hard that even 2 or 3 months later I would get a little winded going up several flights of stairs.
On the bright side, left over cough syrup with codeine mixed with some vodka makes a nice martini.
And I’m pissed about the noon start. My gf is a Virginia Tech fan, and I promised her that if they made the ACC title game I’d take her, and that starts at 1 I believe.
I’m now actually hoping that the Pitt game isn’t on TV anywhere in Tampa so I won’t feel as bad since I wouldn’t have been able to see it anyways.
However, you may get lucky by taking your girlfriend to her alma mater’s football game even though your’s is on TV at the same time. At least you have a great bargaining chip in your back pocket to throw on the pillow when asking for consideration to stretch the boundaries of taboo.
PITT #3!!!
The City Game will be fun to watch. Also the pictures of the basketball team holding up a trophy are amazing.
What will it take for Pitt to get into the Gator Bowl?
Basketball looks great. I like being under the radar. We haven’t played any “big name schools” but we’ve beaten 3 tournament teams already; 2 on the road!!!
So if Louisville wins, we are alone in 2nd place? only 5 big east teams will have 7 wins? and 9-3 Pitt gets bumped to a shitty bowl by a team that we beat?
And if Rutgers wins, they would be in 2nd place because of the head-to-head? wouldn’t the Sun Bowl take Rutgers then?
A further issue that a so-called ‘game manager’ is not supposed to consistently turn the ball over. For Pitt to really become the program we hope, they must be on the deinite plus side on the TO ledger.
Now for a touch of insanity … with mlb McKillop leaving and the very-mobile DEs Sheard and Romeus returning, what do you all think about a 5-2-4 defense with stand-up DEs who would read and possibly drop back in coverage? (yes, visons of H Green and R Jackson are dancing in my head!)
