Hudson Valley area.....NY
Monmouth -2 over G. Wash **
This was -4 the other day so it dropped and I'm biting... I liked GW +4 but not at -2.. GW is a good team...Larson the 6'10 kid is tough. Garino seems like he's been there for 6 years..Cav can score...but not sure how "up" is GW..Think the hawks are up after getting snubbed...you heard this 100 times, Robinson is one of the best pt gd......etc.etc. Jones top rebounder is back...they are 16-2 and everyone has heard 100 times they beat USC,Georgetown and Notre Dame on the road,etc,etc..

NJIT -4 over Boston U ***
This could be a Jersey sweep tonite...right sammy...Highlanders already beat BU by 14 at home..they just blew away Army..they have a midget in Lyn at gd that can do everything..and people are forgetting this team made it to the semi-finals of the CIT last yr with almost everyone back...BU did surprise Fordham in an upset..but at home the Highlanders like last year make it to the semifinals.

Ohio -9 over NC Green **

Nevada -5 over Eastern Wash****
At home Nev is tough..Eastern is the Iona of the west..almost anyway...they play no defense and the Reno boys take care of business...

Got on the plane leaving for Vegas around 3....watched SFA cover +2 and Nova blow away who ever...up 2-0...at the Green Valley and having brunch with the person I'm staying with before I leave..phone rings.. my wife in Austin...she says how are you doing? did you by any chance go to mass this morning..its Palm Sunday...now Ann who I'm having breakfast with just went to mass....so looking Ann right in the eye I respond.." yes I did,we just got back from church."...Ann gives me the dirtiest look and I'm smiling and lying.....especially when your big play is Xavier a fine Catholic school....I hang up and Ann says " no way Xavier wins today...." and she was right....get on the plane...5 hours to Albany...as soon as we land....turn on my phone ....lost all 6....they say the "gods of Vegas get you"...hell no ...think the real god got my ass.... so I did my mea culpa 3 times with the 3rd one mea maxima culpa...forgive me god,forgive me god, forgive me big time god..I know Catholics will under stand this...if you don't you all going to hell...
have to watch all the plays I missed last nite...XU was up by 8 or 9..not sure what happened...Texas Am,etc ..was listening to westwood 1 on the radio...driving home..unreal sunday...

2-6 -12*'s

Not much of a believer myself Box but a great story nonetheless. Also a Wiscy fan so let's just say I'm glad you didn't make it to church. :lol: Sorry your final day in Vegas ended poorly monetarily but I think we'll get them tonight. Tailing all four plays, and in a round robin just for kicks. BOL. :0008

This Nevada game looking close. Could really use this one so I'm hoping they ramp up the intensity down the stretch. Let's get it! :0corn

xstop Bless me father for I have sinned ?.

Yes, I had Xavier (and Nova) and no I didn't go either. I even made the comment, There's no way God lets the Catholic schools lose on Sunday. Lesson learned.

Looking at last night's results, he has forgiven you.

And, thanks, Box :toast:
