Sly, you've been away too long. Our arena is spelled "Vines".

[jcmanson]

I wish I could make it Tuesday, but I'll have to resort to listen to SCAR Let's stay undefeated at home!

[Sly Fox]

Sly, you've been away too long. Our arena is spelled "Vines".

I knew I'd pay for calling you out on the Fundy Forums.

[SuperJon]

Just got word that we may be doing a white out tomorrow night for Winthrop.


This brings up a dilemma: we're all superstitious as crap. I've worn the same thing to every game at home, and we've won. Do I take the chance and switch it up and wear white, or do I not mess with what's working and keep wearing the red? This is a serious question.

[Sly Fox]

It is simple. White shirt over the top of the red underneath.

[LUconn]

This is the answer. You've got to wear white. How can you expect students to "get into" bball when they're told to do something for school spirit, and you guys don't do it?

[olldflame]

Exactly. Apparal worn for supersticious reasons need not be visible. Man law.

Yes...wear white...how about a "wife-beater" tank top over top of the red?

The white out would look great!

That's why I was asking.


Now I hafta go buy some type of white shirt.

[jcmanson]

You don't have a white tshirt?

[Fumblerooskies]

For you, Supe...I know just the place:

[SuperJon]

You don't have a white tshirt?

Not any that are worth wearing in public without a shirt over top of them.


Fat people don't wear white very often.

This looks like the best answer...

[Realist]

Whellison with mentions of both schools in his latest blog:

How about Liberty? Purveyors of the junk defenses, the Flames tore up previously league-undefeated Big South leaders UNC-Asheville (7-1) at home on Saturday by a 83-54 count by pulling out of a late first-half tie, shooting 57 percent and manhandling the Bulldogs on the boards, 35-27. No, Kenny George didn't play, much to the dismay of a regional television audience on MASN.

Speaking of the Big South, how about defending champions and mid-major household name Winthrop? The Eagles are 6-3 and within striking distance of UNCA now, having avenged their conference-opening loss to High Point 62-54 on Saturday (that court-storming game, you might remember). Now, Winthrop will go see what they can do at Liberty.

[kel varson]

Great! This ones on MASN as well. I was hoping I'd get to see it.

[TylerBakersGonnaBGreat]

Correct, Tyler Baker did NOT play on Saturday night.

Corrrect, Tyler Baker did NOT play on Saturday night.

He said freakshow... not weaksho...

awww, I can't say that about TB. But it's so fun to give TBGBGBGBGB crap.

[LUconn]

I haven't decided if I'm going yet. Will there be any zooperstars there?

[Sly Fox]

Is Max Patkin still alive & available?

[ToTheLeft]

I haven't decided if I'm going yet. Will there be any zooperstars there?

I could dress up as a Bulldog and be Michael Sick'em.

Complete with my #7 jersey and handcuffs.

[The NSL]

I'm there, just like Saturday, when no-show Kenny George and UNCA lost in the Vines by 29. And I'll be in my usual spot, behind the LUnatics.
