Signman, I know a cute little cop at Rochester PD. If you get busted let me know. "Fishing for ice." Ofda! What a buncha honyockers.
Watch out for that below zero stuff.

to that end, i would be ecstatic and eternally grateful if anyone found a way to watch a replay of the game that does not require a subscription to cbs sports.
Add another to the list of those who would love to see the TV broadcast of this game. Being there in person was beyond description, but I really want to hear the commentary and see the action one more time.

Glad I dvr-ed it. Watch it when I got home from the game, probably will watch it again tonight after the Bruins.

Also, I did not see John McCutcheon at the game yesterday in Springfield. Must mean he doesn't support the basketball program.

pretty sure he was there, I thought I saw him give dk a hug after the game on the court, could be wrong since it was on the opposite end from me.

Yeah, but I didn't see him there. So he wasn't there.

Hearing Gillen sing our praises was great. Best line was when he summarily disputed the "mid major" tag from his partner. Lots of Brooklyn mentions too.

Not sure why CBSSports is not in HD on VIOS in NY but Ill deal. The wife, a Michigan alum, found it humorous and campy.

Entire staff coached well. DK could have waited a bit to wave to the crowd and kept coaching as the Cougars were resilient but I understand his excitement.

The emails from my bandwagon fans are predictable but glad to have them aboard.

Dickie V just picked Chaz as his PTPer (Prime Time Player) of the week:

That's great for Chaz and UMass. A LOT of people follow Dickie V, even though there are those who aren't crazy about him.

Saturday was great. awesome to experience a sell out. Being in boston makes me really wish we could get ANOTHER game this year- feel like we would have a great showing, and an easier commute.

BYU is a good ballclub and I think they will be in tourney so this was definitely a 'quality win'- nice to see Trey use the teardtop when his 3 wasn't dropping.

My only disappointment was really a mute point (how did the MM center only have 1 bartender - as well as pregame bar) Not the worst thing in the world- but seriously how much money did both establishments leave on the table.

COMPLETELY forgot to bring that up. I only saw two beer stands open (one on each end of the side I was sitting, section 23... I walked around to 12 and there was nothing on that corner either)... and each of those two beer stands only had one person working it. I skipped getting a drink for the first half because I didn't get in there early enough and wanted to see the tip-off... as soon as the 2nd half ended, I scooted up to get a beer. I was there in line for all of halftime and 2.5 minutes into the 2nd half. It was unreal. The MMC KNEW they were going to have a sellout on their hands, they couldn't staff the place properly????

I hope and pray that the Mullins has the place staffed properly going forward.

^In past years they've had a guy (always the same guy) going around with a cart full of beers. He wasn't there this year. He's even been at Armor games when less than a thousand people are there. They dropped the ball yesterday.

As for Dickie V, not everyone likes him, but any promotion of Chaz and UMass hoops is good press. Especially from someone who has so many eyes on what he writes!

It's a good time to be a UMass Minuteman and fan of them!
