Cincinnati Christian used to be called Cincinnati Bible College. This is the school where Rich Mullins was attending while he wrote a bunch of the early Amy Grant hits before he became an artist on his own.

I like throwing a bone to a school like this once a season.

Everyone scored at least once. except for spencer. and everyone got playing time. Summers hit a three for his only points of the game. and now we are 10-4 at the end of december. exciting first half of the season!

Anthony Smith was late for the shootaround today, which is why he didn't start.

Stephene started the game at point guard and stayed at that position for most of the game. I wonder if we will see Johnny more at the point than Jesse in future games.

Also, during the pregame drills on the big screens, we have a new graphic that looks like the team is shooting and dribbling a ball of fire. Now all we need is some Jerry Lee Lewis' music in the background.

10 points for Tyler in 14 minutes. I'm becoming cautiously optomistic. He needs to get a handle on the fouling though.

That low post move that Baker did yesterday where he backed the guy down with his back to the basket and then did that turn around one handed jumper almost brought tears to my eyes. Alex McLean would have been proud of a move like that.

Guys haven't you learned anything from TBGBG? Tyler baker doesn't foul. the refs just feel sorry for the other team for having to be on the same floor as TB so they take pity and call "fake" fouls on him to try to even the playing field.
