Four of the five games this weekend were decided by one point or in OT (3OT, in fact). Razor thin margins out there! Despite that, three of our players managed to nail every game, going 5-0. One of those was our leader, @GrMtWoods, whose lead now returns to three games over second place @hoops41. Six players are tied for third place at 32-9.

Tortured and killed animals for “likes”.

New winning streak!!🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

If you have any other reaction to that game other than being 100% proud of our team and disgusted with the officiating, you’re not a true fan. We will get some luck in the future for that. Karma.

I am exhausted after Saturday’s epic battle. Before worrying about Wednesday’s important struggle, I need to unwind. How about a discussion about our favorite all time favorite sport’s figures? Not a GOAT debate, just an expression of your favorites. Shout out your 5 favorites plus one honorable mention. Here are mine.
1) Tom Seaver
2) Hank Aaron
3) Roger Federer
4) Kareem Abdul Jabbar
5) Steph Curry
Honarable Mention: Roberto Clemente

Sorry

Not a clue. So many variables.

Will Richmond be close to healthy?

How much of a drain both physically and mentally will the triple OT be?

Providence coming off a week's rest and being desperate.

I'll go with the home team but not with a lot of confidence with so many unknowns.

Seton Hall 69
Providence 67

Going on vacation with the family. The people who were going to take them backed out. Email zimm1124@gmail.com and I can transfer them.

Why did they go to the block jerseys? I feel like they always play better with the script.

The script is the brand ...why are the messing with it.

First person who wants two tickets for free, contact me at acernj@comcast.net.

Can I go back and update term papers too? 26 years later? This is Harvard's response?

Total joke of a school.

The odd 6:30 tip, but at least it isn’t the quicker turnaround on Tuesday. Creighton has to deal with that.

This feels like one of those tricky letdown spots to me given the circumstances. Providence has had a week off since laying 100 on DePaul.

Either that or a dementia clown puppet.
