Yup, 76lsjumb, you were. Five losses in six games. Now seventh-place team in the conference, and --even facing a terrible the University of South Central team Saturday -- I think we've got a good shot at sinking below the .500 mark by the end of the weekend.
Nothing to see here, just move along...
Oh, look,...a squirrel!
How about that hockey game last night...?!
Okay, I'll admit it...I've got nothin'.Â
Actually, garvin, I'm surprised you waited this long. I expected to see this thrown back at me after the Arizona debacle LAST weekend. That was when I finally stopped giving Coach Dawkins the benefit of the doubt [ which, unlike, say, unemployment benefits under the current administration, is a benefit that does finally run out]. He seems like a nice guy, but...
When Duke runs the Duke offense, they come back from 10 points down with 2 minutes left to defeat UNC at UNC. When Stanford runs the Duke offense [at least, I assume it's the Duke offense, since it doesn't appear to resemble any other offense...or, indeed, any organized offense at all], we go from 10 points down with 2 minutes left to lose by even more.
Oh well, as I also said somewhere earlier, at least baseball season starts in just a few days. And, lest we get too dewy-eyed over what "might have been," it's woth noting that LSU [where Trent Johnson went so he could recurit the really good players]is not exactly topping the charts, either [at 13-10; 3-7] ... and remember that it was Johnson, not Dawkins, who decided to give Daveed Dildy, rather than Jeremy Lin, the scholarship.
