The longest thread ever

My first thought while watching the game (after sheer enjoyment ) was that the calls for Gary's job would intensify. It amuses me that they're making excuses.

Interesting. I have an old DBR t-shirt that lists the top 10 terp excuses. Perhaps I'll post them later. One at the time, of course.

Fortunately, I have two in my family. One of whom is my brother (who went to Louisville and loves Carolina). This is the same brother who earlier this year said that Vasquez was the second best point guard in the ACC.

Ooooooh, I'm waiting to call him up this morning.

Behind Rice, I guess....

That could, indeed, be fun. So, are you going to rub it in, or are you going to use the "Maryland is so far beneath us that it's really not even worth discussion" strategy? That could potentially be even more fun.

Not our rivals.

Clap, clap, clap/clap/clap.

Another comment could be: It used to be fun beating you guys when you were good/had a BB team. Some smartarse terp fan made this comment to a DBR poster a couple years ago when they beat us twice (or was it thrice) in a row.

I'm waiting for the discussion of Vasquez. I'm thinking of leading off with:

"How many points?"

"Second best point guard?"

I'll wait a little bit longer.

Or: Whose house?

I feel a bit sorry for Vasquez. Poor guy was obviously rattled - maybe he couldn't handle the pressure of playing in his house?

I have one question: maybe he meant 2nd worst point guard? If he's 2nd worst, how bad is the worst?

I wouldn't feel sorry for him at all. He talked the talk but didn't walk the walk...

Kinda reminds me about Julius Hodge a few years ago. His locker room material included the following quote just before coming to CIS when asked about the crowd/intimidation: "I'm not gonna let some pimply-faced nerd/geek with a 4.7 GPA tell me how to play basketball." (or something like that)

He had 7 points, 7 TO, a couple rebounds (maybe) and fouled out of the game with several minutes to play to the chorus of "julius, julius, etc.:" Can't remember the final. It wasn't close but it wasn't a 41 point smackdown either.

From an old DBR t-shirt-Top Ten Terp Excuses:

10. thought games lasted only 39 minutes

Please do! I'm looking forward to this!

9. That "Duke curse" scares the holy crap out of us

[devildeac]

Do it!

8. Should have thrown bottles before the game.

7. Gary & Billy's sweat made our end too slippery.

6. Refs only spotted us 22 points.

[devildeac]

More later. I'm still trying to catch up on other OTB threads and EK stuff from the game yesterday. Plus, I like dragging out the suspense...

The winner! Lavabe, you should definitely go this route!

Not our rivals.

Clap, clap, clap/clap/clap.

Exactly!

I don't care what the top 5 are. This is my favorite.
