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 to discreetly inform the man to remove his fez. The man refuses, citing a religious exemption under the First Amendment's freedom of expression protections. After a fairly lengthy discussion with the man, the judge decides the man isn't entitled to keep wearing the fez in court. Why?

[A hint: The fez is unadorned with any symbology so the judge decides it isn't a Shriner's fez.]

GO CATS!

Sorry to hear you are under the weather, but with your post now published - let the game begin. Go Cats blitz the formerly Red Minutemen.

No idea about the Fez (though I don't think it has any religious meaning?). I am assuming that we are referring to the hat, and not the Fez referenced by Steely Dan?

Go Cats!

The ban against students being on campus during breaks does not apply to cheerleaders. A decent contingent is present at today’s game.

Delay on the broadcast start due to a Premiere League soccer game. Good finish on that game. Hopefully, a similar result for the Cats.

So with Frank Martin on the sidelines, I’m wondering if I am the only person here who has had both Kansas State and Davidson season tickets.

The announcer mentions that DC is not a shot-blocking team. Hunter and Reed then block shots in consecutive UMass possessions.

We can’t get a rebound. It helps to try.

One minuteman outrebounded 3 wildcats

Hunter Adam looks thirsty. Two blocks and a nice bucket so far.

Moss didn't check his man out.

He then missed a wide open cutter under our hoop. Too late in the year to be making those mistakes.

A blocked shot by Bailey is a rare and beautiful miracle.

The game should be stopped and a ceremony held to commemorate it.
