First, David Schneider’s buzzer-beater saved William and Mary’s Tribe from an ignominious
defeat at the hands of Georgia State in the first round of the CAA Basketball Tournament. Then it was Nathan Mann’s turn, as the senior guard beat Old Dominion with a three-pointer in the waning seconds. Finally, and most unexpectedly, Laimis Kiselieus hit a last-possession leaner to beat heavily-favored VCU and send the Tribe to its first-ever conference final. That they lost a hard-fought contest to George Mason was immaterial, as a grateful G:TB noted at the time.The Tribe’s run was all the more improbable coming as it did against the historical backdrop of William and Mary’s Mr. Bean-like basketball legacy. The 2008 Tribe exceeded the school’s postseason win record by two – we’d never before won as many as two games in a single CAA tournament. As we wrote on the day after the loss to Mason, “For the briefest of moments we were allowed to pretend we belonged, to plan trips to the Boise or Sacramento or Tacoma subregionals, to shout ourselves hoarse watching a game that actually mattered, and to dream. Generations of us had never even allowed ourselves to dream. When we talk about this team, that’s the thing we’ll remember – not that they finally fell short, but that they let us dream, hope, and care.”
And that, boys and girls, is the magic of Gheorghe-mas.

Rob, Bobby Petrino thinks Alabama wins on Saturday. And then there's this...fuck off you little midget.
greetings and salutations, mark! that petrino news makes me feel much better, you tattooed, substandard-education-having freak.
man, saturday's gonna be fun.
in unrelated news, it's probably a 50/50 probability that carolina goes unbeaten this season. they're sick.
'probably a 50/50 probability' is fairly moronic.
Well, you ARE and Alabama fan so the moron thing makes a lot of sense. Plus, you're small so I imagine that tiny little brain of yours can only handle so much info. God, I hate you and Saban so much right now.
Leigh Tiffin.
you're right - i *am* a fan of both antwaan randle al and alabama. it's a testament to your meth-addled thinking organ that you were able to combine the two. though i suppose meth-addled and gator fan are redundant descriptors.

I'm not sure where this is going but I'll play along:
Brandon Spikes
And I only do meth on weekends. Gets me fired up for football and such.
And...Its Randle El jerkoff. If you're going to be a fan of shitty wide receivers, at least learn how to spell their name correctly. Oh yeah, you're a fucking idiot. My bad...Alabama man.
it was a typo. i figured it'd make you feel more at home amongst the barely literate florida grads, octogenarians, and inbred hillbillies down there in gator country.
Attending a football game. Wearing a tie.
Rob's like that guy on the Home Depot commercial with favorite teams from all over the country. Bama, Red Sox, Skins. Hell, why don't we throw the Atlanta Thrashers in there too.
Shall I paint my rumpus room in the colors of Tony Stewart or the Seattle Sounders?
aren't you a cardinals fan, gatorbait?
Yes, yes I am. And that's the only team of mine that's not from Florida...dick.

He does like the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And that Red Rider song.

helen reddy can fuck right off, though.

Okay, I'm out of them.
And Jack Ruby was "shady," not "chady," which apparently, according to the urban dictionary, means "of or like a homo named Chad."
