No Derek Jeter in the playoffs this year. Further proof that there is an almighty God in Heaven.It's good for him though. More time for him to spend with his lover beaner in the off-season.

I hate the term "stop-gap". I'm sick of people using it and I'm not really sure why. Perhaps its not the correct term? I don't know. But I hate it.
I hate it because it usually means "nah, we don't to spend on a guy thats really good, we'll just take a crappy veteran to fill a spot"

I may just be a biased fool but I still think UVa is going to get in. That win at Arizona is going to be our saving grace, as I think we will win 9 games in the conference, maybe 10.
If we get to 9-10 ACC wins, we will be right there on the bubble.
As of right now, we are right in the same boat as NC State, Florida State and BC in terms of being on the bubble.

Did the Duke-UVA game start yet Yardbirds?
Very Funny.
I actually turned off the second half to watch The Wire, plus I knew what was coming.
Basically, to win against a quailty opponent, Singletary has to be his normal self (he had a bad game tonight), and 2 of the slew of other guys on the team have to step up and have big games. Whether it be Diane, Joseph, Baker, Jones, Scott etc. two guys have to perform very well to go along with SS for us to be quality opponents.
Anyways, obviously I knew this was the toughest two game stretch of their schedule, with back to back road games at Xavier and Duke. I didn't expect to win either, but keeping it close in one of them would have been nice too. I think we are certainly going to be a bubble team and probably get in the tournament, losing that game to Syracuse at home by 2 when Singletary was on his death bed may come back to really haunt us.
As I've said about them most every time I've watched them, Duke is very impressive. I think they could run into trouble if the 3's aren't falling, but they have so many different guys who can stroke them it's hard to see a night where everyoen is cold.

Everybody watch the Hoos tonight and root against Duke.
We need all the help we can get in Cameron..

They definitely played at Mich St.
BTW, kudos to the Heels for playing at Rutgers...Talk about a tough game!
Let's not count Big Ten/ACC Challenge games. Pretty sure the conference, not the school schedules those games.

I saw North Carolina in person for the first time at the Palestra, and they were extremely impressive. Hansborough and Green were monsters, we had no answer for them (yes, I know we are only an Ivy League team but still). North Carolina was a lot more impressive than UVA, IMO and they certainly deserve their number 1 ranking.
Really? Carolina more impressive than UVA? I don't believe it!
I was talking to my brother about this today. He is a big Heels fan, and was worrying about Lawson staying healthy, and Ellington's streakiness, and I just stopped and thought, this is your worries?? Really? You are worried about definitely the best backcourt duo in the conference, and maybe the country?
Oh to have the problems of a Carolina fan.
Still a little bitter after the close loss to Syracuse last week guys, sorry for the tone. Pretty obvious you guys are still a pretty good team without Lawson, seeing as Frasor could start for most teams in the country. Us without Singletary at 100 percent we are a totally different team.

How is Bob Uecker NOT part of the post-season TV broadcast team?
Because he is actually funny Scottie. Don't you know? We as the viewing public love smug, unfunny humor from Buck, McCarver and Caray.
BTW, how awesome would a Jon Miller/Bob Uecker team be? I would give up a kidney to listen to them call the Series.

F#%*&$ing comcast!
First, the only way to have your service stopped is to take your cable box back to one of their locations. Well that's annoying, but I'm sure there is one downtown I can run to quickly. Right?
Noooo! It's all the way in the middle of f@@$@ing nowhere.
Whatever, that's fine. So I hustle up here after work only to find a line that wraps around the GD building twice! I just want to drop off the box! So now I've been waiting for 30 minutes and I'm still not even close to the front of the line. How does this make any sense!?! This is so ridiculous words cannot even begin to describe how pissed off I am.
