Captj,

Are you there? At home taking oxygen? It was as much fun watching you as it was the game. When Mustian didn't follow that one shot to the hoop, I thought for a minute that you were gonna run out there and tackle him!!

don't worry...inside my calm and cool outside, I am bleeding CNU blue. There's just too much ice in my veins.....

good news for tonight...it's been about 2-3 years, but I now have a favorite cheerleader again. My favorite must have graduated a while back....but I found a new one tonight! Too bad season is almost over.

Dude, those girls are teenagers!

Yeah, I about popped an artery when Mustian didn't follow that shot. I should be used to it by now. If he had taken ONE (1) step FORWARD after shooting instead of TEN (10) toward the other end of the court, he would have had an easy rebound. I am appalled at the arrogance of the CNU players when they take a shot. It is like they KNOW FOR CERTAIN that every shot they take is going to go in.

Great win tonight, Captains. Poor Jimmy! He puts really good teams together that just can't seem to beat CNU. He's now 1-8 all-time against the Captains. His heart has been broken in our gym sooooo many times. I feel for the guy, I really do.

It's funny how the sarcasm isn't as obvious on a message board!!

He must be a real-life example of Vincit qui patitur.

You know I thought CaptJ was going to have a coronary when Mustian didnt follow his shot, or any of the other CNU players who assumed their shot was going to drop and fade towards the opposite end of the floor. Could you guys get on the officials anymore about the traveling calls! Sheesh! They were bad, they did miss a few, granted. It was nice to see alot of fans come out and support the Captains, even tho i know it was HOF weekend and Faculty Appreciation Day and Academic Recognition Day, etc. Shaping up to be an exciting final week in the regular season. The Captains just need to take care of their two games and not worry about who defeats who and who loses to who and all that rot.

Did you notice? Oh my - those refs were horrible. Pulling on jerseys, no foul....hacking at arms...no foul....rebounding over a guy's back...no foul.....getting a rebound and hopping around like it's Easter already...no call. And it was on both ends of the court...really really bad. Then at the end of regulation, they start calling it tight.....kids looked frustrated on both teams......AU has one kid that played quite a bit and got his first foul either near the end of regulation or in overtime....yet one of their top players exits with 5.....go figure!

Contemplating a road trip...not sure if I can swing it...2 meetings at work to get around.

RTT - how far to Greensboro? Then, how from from there to MU and then back to NN?

CNU85 · February 18, 2008, 08:48:52 AM

At one point in the game when I found myself yelling at the ref and Captj was ready to burst a vein in his head, it reminded me of the two old guys in the balcony on the Muppet Show!

I'm not going to have a coronary. I told you guys, I'm in training to play ball for the Captains next year. My ticker is STRONG. Low BP and cholesterol of 146. I'm working on increasing my upper body strength. Now all I need to do is find a graduate program in real estate.

How about this for a front line... Blasingame, Whinett, and CaptJ.
