David vs Goliath

[MadNY3]

More than once this season, I've been very disappointed by how Boeheim has arrogantly and insensitively dealt with the press during certain matters. But yesterday, well hell...I was damn proud.

Everyone wants to see the #1 lose to the #16 (including us today, people). And JB tried to be graceful until UNC Ashe's coach stated "we were the better team today" and its players whining like little biitches.

Good for him for saying something along the lines of "this is why scoreboards were invented" and appropriately defending that his team won. And as gutty as Asheville played, what immature little prissies to show classlessness in defeat, from its star player to its head coach.

It is usually PR 101 to say "OK Goliath, don't pick on David. Just smile and move on." Proud that JB defended us winning and hopefully the four or so good practices post the Cincy lost will translate in front of the cameras come 12:15 tomorrow.

War
Damn

Made the UNCA coach look bad. Mike & Mike (Jay today), both saying how they didn't like the comment from the coach, doesn't help his case.

And as someone here pointed out, they were down 8 with 2 minutes left, before the world thought the game was taken from them. That's not the situation "better teams on that day" often find themselves in. Throw in the crap goaltending, and the whistle whenTriche was fouled at the end of the half, could have been down 12 with 2 minutes left.

But in a day with few upsets, and few exciting finishes, everyone needed something to talk about.

Great post. I hope this team comes out tomorrow with a big chip on its shoulder.
