Just because I had more...

Half of the lights on my Christmas Tree in the basement went out today.  I wish I could blame it on Rocky but I can't.  He was upstairs with me when they went out.  Shaking the lights didn't work.  Hard to believe huh?

I had some of that Eggnog that I was talking about the other day.  Yeah I don't like it.  Brendan claims that it's great with Whiskey.  I'll have to take his word for it.  I have no plans to test it out.

It looks like they have been exchanging autographs for tattoos in Columbus, Ohio.  That's pretty funny.  I honestly don't have a problem with it but I won't cry when they miss a bunch of starters in the meaningless Sugar Bowl against the Razorbacks.

The Georgetown women have been ranked for awhile now but it still throws me off when I catch that name on the bottom scroll when I'm only half paying attention.

Gonzaga and Xavier are facing each other right now in a match-up of two schools that hate Butler even more than I do.  All of a sudden the Zags have taken a back seat in race as the ultimate mid-major.  That must be hard for them.  Bummer.  The only good thing about Butler making the Championship Game last season is that there are probably a bunch of Mason fans really bent about their success.  I'll take that.

What is going on in East Lansing?  The Spartans aren't winning any of these so-called big games on their non-conference schedule.  I'm more interested in how this makes Connecticut look.  I can't believe that they jumped from unranked to #7 after beating Michigan State and Kentucky in Maui about a month ago.  It looks like those wins aren't nearly as impressive as everybody first suspected.  Other than those two wins, Uconn has beaten exactly NOBODY.

I watched some of Northwestern - St. John's last night.  Northwestern runs the same stuff that Georgetown does offensively.  They just do it with way worse players.  I'd like to see them finally make the NCAA Tournament this year but I don't think they have enough inside to get to .500 in the Big Ten.  A win last night would have really helped them.

Well speak of the devil, Butler is on ESPNU.  I think RTD and I might have to take this upstairs.

Peace brah
