stream of consciousness:

nice work.

Captj,

Thanks for the messages. I wish you the best of luck in your new future. It sounds to me like your are a very happy man right now. You have a lot of good things going on. Enjoy them. Good luck on the book. Take much time to reflect, keep things in your new found perspective. Don't fall into the rut of life again. And above all, say thanks to the man upstairs!

I'm pulling for you! And listen to some games on the 'net. You will get some airtime. I have ideas.

Thanks for the encouraging words, 85.  I will miss exchanging insights with you at halftime over Pepsi products.  It's funny you mentioned the Man upstairs... that's actually a big part of my "new found perspective."

I'm very intrigued to find out what kind of airtime I'm going to get.  It brings up a possibility... are you going to be doing any on-air support like you did in football?

[CaptJ]

BTW... where I will be is 13 hours ahead of gametime on the east coast.  That means a couple of things.  One is that I will listen to the night games in the morning, and that I will have to wake very early to listen to the afternoon games.  And secondly, since I will be listening 13 hours ahead of you guys, I will know the outcome way before you do.     8)

I will do as much airtime as Tommasino lets me!

got my first look at the monarchs today vs. #24 vwc - the marlins won 88-77 and the lead was between 7 and 12 points for most of the game - every time the monarchs made a little mini run, vwc pushed the lead back to double digits - vwc dominated mu on the boards...they are big (tall, but especially wide...the front court all goes 220+, it seems), athletic and they can shoot the 3 ball...they should be pretty good this year - i saw some positives from mu...eric thomas looked solid at the point and the newcomers looked like nice additions - 6'5" post, josh crumpler had a 20 point day, but only had three boards, frosh devonne blackshear is a talented player...he had a couple of really nice drives and played solid defense  and frosh mark jernigan worked really hard, scoring 9 with 5 boards - soph leland jones had a big first half, with 10 points, but didn't score after halftime - guilford should prove a good test for mu tomorrow, but i won't be able to make the game - i'm hoping that the marlins didn't take everything out of the monarchs today...

Narch,

I figured you would be on here today now that football season is over. Where did blackshear go to HS? The name sounds familiar.

I'm looking foward to a very good year for CNU. I haven't seen them play yet, but I'm optimistic with Blasingame back. That will allow Whinett to play facing the basket. The one added piece has changed everything. I can't wait for the season to start on Saturday. I doubt I will make the first game but will make most of them after that.

potomac in dumfries, va

and the addition of the big boy makes cnu my pre-season favorite, as well

Wow!  I just got home and checked the Guilford at Methodist score.  I was certainly hoping for a Guilford win, but didn't expect a 26 point margin with the Quakers besting the Monarchs, 81-55.  I just scanned through the boxscore and play-by-play and saw GC led by as many as 31, with MU scoring the last 5 points.

With 21 points versus both Davidson and Methodist, Clay Henson may be poised to be an all-ODAC performer.  Sanborn also continues to play well, especially on the boards.  I look forward to watching the Quakers for the first time this season when Greensboro visits Ragan-Brown on Wednesday night.

31 turnovers for the Hornets last night.  Hope they can get on track with a win over EMU tomorrow.

I think so. But I couldn't tell you.....I missed it!!

mu falls to 0-3 last night, losing to ehc 113-104 - too many to's (24) and too many 3's (mu was 6-21) - frosh jernigan had a nice night with 30 points on 10-17, 10-10 from the line and 8 boards - mu actually out rebounded ehc, but the wasps got 30 points from the three point line (10-22) and 25 on the ft line

box score

I just saw the CNU roster.   What happened to Conley Taylor, Marko Hamlin and David Mustian?  Taylor will be missed a LOT!  And who knows something about the new guys?
