Sucks to be a Terp

So I guess that now means it sucks to be me. As I get ready to head up to UMD in the fall, I had planned on using my new school as an excuse to become an ACC basketball fan, but it may not be such a great idea now, as apparently Gary Williams is having trouble forming a squad.

With Gilchrist leaving and several recruits potentially not coming, the Terp's program looks to be in shambles. It's incredible to think that 6 years ago they won the national title. I'm not sure how much I want to pay for tickets now, maybe nothing...

Whale Killer!

So I just found this video of Pops in Spain on Colonial Hoops. I wasn't sure if you had seen it yet, but it was worth posting anyways. It's chock-full of the Pops Mensah-Bonsu that we knew and loved. Yeah, remember those days, back when GW didn't suck? And when we had class-act players on the team? Yeah, those were fun times...

North Carolina - Basketball and BBQ

So we're headed off to Greensboro, NC tomorrow for the Women's NCAA Sweet 16 (Go GW!), and I have to admit to having no clue what there is to do in Greensboro. From what I've been told by band members who have been there before, the answer is nothing. That said, I know I am on quest. A quest for BBQ. There is nothing quite like a delicious plate of North Carolina BBQ. It's not always the best in the world, but it's always greasy, and almost always served from some little Mom and Pop joint. This place looks intriguing, though I'm sure that there are tons more like it.

In other news, the 6th seeded GW Womens Team is going to whup up on the 2nd seeded Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Game time is 2:30 on ESPN2, and it should be fantastic. I really honestly think GW can pull this one out. At least I hope they can... more later, I'm sure.
