Ah dirkness layin down his notes in the weee hours of the morning, or i guess that may be considered mid-day to you on your constant tourney cycle...hope that wheel of cheese has stood its ground thus far.
I knew that Goggs Clavell was gonna spark some interest in Dirkeness, and figured that your next jersey was gonna be a Samhan one. And dude Gumball's game switches (or lack thereof) killed me, cuz they showed the Whole Tenn game and never showed any KU at all (out in CA)....and that was pretty hilarious what you said about Georgetown and Udoh.
Keep bracketing in the free world
Rick Barnes gets really good talent to Texas. He just can't prepare his players well or coach once the game starts.
You are not right. I am assured. I suggest it to discuss.
