two thoughts....

The tourney starts today... cant wait to see the game where the "favorite" doesnt put away the directional school and all of sudden some random guy you've never heard of starts raining 3's and you start to see the "favorite" get this "deer in the headlights" look...then its upset city and you get the previously mentioned shots of the cheerleaders and the pep band...or now...the sorority girl in pink school sweatshirt and facepaint, or the frat boy who blew his entire spring break budget to get to the site with this stunned " i cant believe this is happening" look...

..Obama is now officially polling BEHIND Clinton now in the Gallup poll. While I am still leery of polls, i do have a little trust in the Gallup poll. Yeah i know he still has the lead blah, blah, blah..but he has work to do or it will get really nasty come convention...

Sure you couldn't wait, Jerome? Sure? ... I'm guessing you COULD have waited ;-) Sorority girls I saw last night were sadly wearing orange and not pink :-( Not trying to pick on Clemson as the longer I've lived out of state, the more I've grown to pull for all SC teams. What really frustrated me about the game last night was watching the giant 36 - 18 lead evaporate in the second half. Would have been one thing to have been close the whole game, or to even trail the majority of time and fail to comeback, but sad to watch such a dominating performance fall apart. Know from your earlier posts that you even predicted similar performance issues in the second half but still want to extend my condolences. Hey, at least they made it to the dance... can't say that for my ol' 7-23 Purple Ps who lost to ELON in their opening conference game, only managing to score a paltry 37 points, so as you can see things can be worse ;-)
