Is that a #PantslessGriffin on my TV?

The CAA released their 2013-14 television schedule today as part of their annual media day, and will you look at that, the Pantsless Griffins of William and Mary actually appear six times on said (conference) sked.

There are high expectations for this edition of the Tribe, something rob or I are afraid to discuss in public (a 5th place finish, as predicted below, would be tremendously disappointing). But let's just say there aren't a lot of years where preseason accolades are thrown at not one, but two, Tribe hoopsters:
At the Colonial Athletic Association’s annual media day, the William and Mary men’s basketball team placed a pair of players on preseason all-league teams, while the Tribe was picked fifth in the preseason poll. Junior guard Marcus Thornton was selected Preseason First Team All-CAA, while senior forward Tim Rusthoven garnered second-team honors.

Why is that griffin wearing highwaters?

Squeaky said...

Those are jeggings. And they only come in a highwater mens version. So I'm told ...

rob said...

towson is on teevee 15 times. this is an outrage.

zman said...

The Rams have zero rushing TD through seven games. That seems impossible.

Greg said...

Shouldn't the griffin be wearing a polo shirt, khaki shorts, boat shoes and a dirty white hat?

No? Just on "Late 90's Day"? Okay.

Dave said...

rushing touchdowns are so '90's.

TR said...

Those are not real TV stations.

Orlando has approved a soccer stadium in downtown. MLS has stated this was the final step in approval of a new franchise. This is a really cool development.

Random question, I know few of you have stay in resorts in FL. Any family friendly ones would you all recommend? Wife wants to get out NE this winter and thought maybe I'd plan ahead this year. I know several have been discussed before on G:TB. Bring on the rec's.
