Basketball Open Thread
So what we lost a game. It Isn't over!
Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
:the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!
What the ZUG happened to the BSD I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest greatest afternoon in work of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might lose again." Well just kiss my zug from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Tulane, They're dead ! Michigan State, dead! Pryor...

By the way, the Germans did not bomb pearl harbor
The Irish did.

Just came on the radio here at work. My question is it a sign or is it the greatest sign?
How could Nixon know so little about Watergate and so much about football ?
Are you listening to
Disney Radio again? If not, It is a definite sign – of the end of the world.

You think this is bad? If we lose...
I was looking at the bracket for this tournament (yes, there is one), and if we lose we have to play Sunday morning at 10am. I don’t see ESPN picking up that game.
Sunday 10am
Probably against LaSalle. If that happens, can we just cancel and play the game up in PA?
Announced attendance at the UNCW-PSU game = (drumroll, please) … 535

And that remains your score going into the locker room.
Apparently we were down 18-13 at one point (according to PSUSTRETCH on Twitter) but turned it around right before the half. So far, it sounds better than yesterday. Hopefully we can get an early run going in the second half and pull away.

is an awful way to watch a game. I can actually stand this thing for baseball, but I don’t even know what to pay attention to in basketball.

And yet, another crap layup given up
Our interior defense is absolute garbage.

Luckily for us
We’re in the double bonus already, and we’re still not even halfway through the 2nd half.

If they lose, I'm going to write a fake fanpost detailing how we were unable to stop Shaun King and RichRod's spread
UNACCEPTABLE!
Good call.
I’ll be ready to write off the season and go into full-sarcasm mode if we blow this game too.

Yeah, we'll have competition at BHGP in terms of openly mocking our own teams.

I CAN HAZ HIGHBURGER?
Chance at an old-fashioned 3-point play coming up.
http://www.happyhourvalley.com/
The last sequence summed it up nicely
Highberger missed the FT, Jones gets the offensive board, misses the putback, then Battle bricks a 3 from the corner.

Thank God these games are timed and not "first to 60 points".
