I was very happy to get texts from my kids, all my grandkids and great-grandkids, all the way down to my great-great-granddaughter on my birthday this past weekend. In the "good old days" most of them (well, at least a couple) would have stopped by and brought this nasty cold/virus that's going...

That's the most sensible line in this entire thread. I remember when the Big East made sense. Omaha, Cincinnati, Indianapolis and Chicago are not in the East.

Wasn't sure of the time of yesterday's game. So I googled it around 10AM. This is a screen capture of the result...

Bucket on first 3 possessions gives us a 6-0 lead and forces a quick G-town timeout. Reed seems to be dominant early on. 2nd foul on Silas pretty early. Smith will be tested for the remainder of the half. Six minutes left in the half. We're leading, but so far, our outside shooting has been...

Inside to Tarris on the first possession, and it's 2-zip. We tried that same approach on 3 of our first 4 possessions, but Reed's getting attacked by a gang every time the ball goes inside. If the refs are going to continue to ignore that, it could be a long night. I don't like close games. Bad...

As did the defense.

Predictably, we get it to Tarris for the 1st shot. Today though when the 2nd and 3rd possessions went in to Tarris, instead of scoring, he dropped a couple dimes for our 2nd and 3rd buckets. Next bucket was a gorgeous 3 from Mullins. But a few minutes in, we couldn't hit a bucket and developed...

Georgetown's bball legends are too far removed from the current student population. (I couldn't use avid fan population, as this thread wouldn't exist of they actually had one.) When John Thompson was there, and they had players like Ewing, Mourning and Iverson, they had a strong following...

In bed last night, I got to wondering how many 'fans' turned the game off with about 3 minutes to go after the fryers scored to make it an 11 point lead.

We open with a wide open three from Solo, followed by a downhill slide of missed shots dropped rebounds and unforced errors that left us trailing 3-7. That was followed by two minutes of ineptitude on the part of both teams. Still 3-7 at first timeout. Timeout end is followed by a quick Karaban...

Didn't seem to be into it on D, and he was too anxious to score points on a night when his shooting was off (3 of 10 from the floor)

First 4 points from Reed. Why does this feel familiar? Feels like we feed him the ball early and then kind of forget about him. I'm sorry, but our point guard should never get cleanly intercepted on an inbounds pass under his own bucket. Stewart is becoming my favorite player on this team...

Well, they didn't say which day to which day or how many days, so this could be today through the end of next week for all we know.

I suspect that the author of the subject article meant "don't blame the injuries on hard practices", not the other way around.

Nearly a minute & a half before the first score. A three from Demary. We never relinquished the lead. That first bucket would turn out to be more than half Demary's scoring total for the game. His other 2 points came with from the FT line with about 3 minutes left in the game. He ran the team...
