Ariz State Curtain of Distraction

This one?

The best poster of my generation, for sure.

To me, this is a sliding scale type of thing. So long as the antics don't go too far and out of bounds (and that's an "in the eye of the beholder" type thing, I know), I rather like the idea of college kids going a bit crazy. It is one of those nutty things that can make college life special for students.

It certainly is preferable to some of the disgusting name callings players have to endure related to their race, sexual orientation, etc.

I will also acknowledge that if the CoD was causing opposing teams ten or more points a game, I might feel differently. But if it is only two points and is rarely impacting the outcome of games, then I don't think it is such a big deal.

Last, for teams that play at ASU, you know you'll face this. It's up to the coaching staff and players to be prepared so that rather than a Curtain of Distraction, it becomes a Curtain of Amusement.

I agree about the hateful language. I've had to call out students on more than one occasion. Not to paint with a broad brush, but 9 times out of 10 the problem is with frat boys.

I saw those giant Mickey Mouse hands in Storrs on February 9th...
Unfortunately the S.C. team was wearing them... 17 turnovers, 40 missed shots from the field and 50% from the free throw line. Those things are hard to play in...

Fair enough.

Don't forget that you guys have to play us in Columbia next year and maybe in the finals this year.

My niece did her graduate work at South Carolina and is where she met her husband, and is also where their marriage took place. Too bad she couldn't have waited until next year and timed it to coincide with the game.

Of course, that would have taken an incredible amount of foresight - they've been married 15 years!

Shouldn't be a problem. We're reloading.

Oh good grief! It's college, and this perfectly fits! Lighten up, people!
As an aside, anyone notice that Rebecca, Kara and Kevin were wearing sneakers beneath the desk- all duded up on top, casual below! Ha!

Yes, I did notice that. I was wondering if they were planning on giving some type of demonstration on a mock-up court.

Yeah, noticed, and the day before Rebecca tweeted a pic of Kara all duded up on top, getting a makeup job at a break, but you could see the jeans.
