ACC Quarterfinals-Night Session

After watching Maryland beat Wake, Duke took the floor to play Boston College. Gerald Henderson, one of our stars, picked up two fouls in less than a minute. We played pretty bad offensively in the first half, kept only alive by good defense. Down…

ACC Quarterfinals

Ended up staying up late to watch all 6 OTs of the Syracuse v UConn game. Awesome. Earlier today, UNC got a big scare from VA Tech before eeking out a victory. Florida State did the same thing against Georgia Tech. In the night…

ACC Tournament-End of Day One

We watched Maryland pull away from NC State, and then the first half of a thoroughly uninspiring game that pitted Boston College against Virginia. Boston College won, so the Dukies know who we play tomorrow night. A pic of David and I, followed by…

ACC Tournament-Night Session

So, Georgia Tech pulled it out against Clemson. Lot of fun to watch. After a break, we’re back for the night time games. Game 3 pits Maryland against NC State. Maryland is supposed to be the better team. Both teams are playing sloppy, tied…

ACC Tournament Update

Game 1 was won by VA Tech in convincing fashion. Miami never showed up for the game. Now, Georgia Tech is playing Clemson. Georgia Tech managed 2 wins the entire ACC season, and are the worst team in the tournament. At the half, they…

At the ACC Tournament

My best friend, David, and I arrived in ATL last night for the ACC tournament. Due to an odd seating configuration in the Georgia Dome, we had no idea how good our seats were. Well, we’re sitting here watching Virginia Tech play Miami, and…

Ruminating

Tonight I started working on my NCAA bracket pool for 2009, a 19-year ritual for me that I enjoy immensely, despite the sheer amount of time it takes to organize. This lead me to a remembrance of my friend, Spero Peratino, who passed away…

Boxing: James Kirkland vs. Joel Julio

To my knowledge, this is my first blog post on boxing. I’ve been an avid boxing fan for a number of years, even as the sport has suffered from a lack of true superstars. As usual, I recorded the Saturday night fight on HBO….
