Re: In Game: vs. Loyola Chicago

The contrast between Brizzi's senior HS season and his performance for us this year is both fascinating and maddening. If putting him back at his natural position (point guard) will spell the difference and return him to his old form, he really could be something special. But it appears none of our ...

Re: Colt 45 Award: vs. Loyola Chicago

Unfortunately, Sosnik isn't eligible since he started in this game. Durkin had a good game; he's the winner by a few votes and an admittedly small sample size. With this game, Bobby now has what amounts to an insurmountable lead. The voting tallies going into the final regular season game are : Durk...

Re: Up next: Loyola

And wear your tams. I located mine, hidden deep inside my closet, and I'm wearing it; don't try to stop me.

In Game: vs. Loyola Chicago

On February 29, I did a one-hour comedy set at "High Point Trousers," a combination men's retail clothing store and bar that is owned by my eldest son. It was well-attended and people seemed to have a good time hearing me tell many of the same stories I related in this season's thread starters. My c...

Re: Up next: Loyola

I'm seriously considering bringing the dreaded Scottish Tam out of my closet and wearing it to the game. Gotta do something to reverse this curse of losing close games in the closing minutes.

Re: Colt 45 Award: vs. UMASS

Brizzi wins this round.

I plan to go ahead and post the next game's Colt 45 thread today so I don't forget like I did this game.

Colt 45 Award: vs. UMASS

I could have sworn I had started this thread before game time. Brain fart similar to today's team, I guess. But I'm still putting it up. Not much room in the fridge for "no award," though.

My vote goes to Brizzi as the only guy who hit any threes.

Re: In Game: vs UMASS

We're shredding their defense with sharp cuts and pinpoint passes. But this three-point thing is beyond embarrassing.

In Game: vs UMASS

I have been busy and also feeling a bit under the weather, so I ran out of time to do a thread-starter of any length. Instead, I will begin with a riddle: A man walks into a criminal courtroom wearing a fez. Because there is a rule against wearing hats in the courtroom, the judge tells the bailiff t...

Re: Colt 45 Award: at Dayton

Well, "no award" seems to be the strong consensus. It goes into the fridge.
