"going to the mattresses"

[OldSchooler]

Funny - I heard Geno say "go to the mat", and I figured he was using a wrestling expression? Then again, that's what BE games look like sometimes.

I thought that was what he meant, like "let's have it out with our rivals." But he clearly said "mattresses."

And someone makes pasta and gravy meat for the crew, with some chianti and very good Italian bread.

And don't forget the canole.

I watched the first Godfather when I was a student at Brown. I may have been the only person in the Providence theater who didn't understand the Sicilian dialogue.

Going right now for that hearing test! Funny how you hear what you think you hear. No question, "Tom-a-nooch", however, growing up we did have many Carmen-ooches in the neighborhood! Thanks again. I think I'm going to add " a -nooch" to every Husky player tonight after they score a basket!

If you do it in the chat, you’ll have me laughing the whole game. Nik-a-nooch does have a ring to it, though.

Forget the gun, take the canoli.
