That's about how much a UNC athlete's diploma is worth these days, so it's the least he could do, IMO.

I hear ya. I think it was Doc's post in the last GYERO about a concert he is going to check out on the way to Indy that got me.

Of course, it'd be even cooler if the NCAA came out and said it was a retroactive violation.

You're honestly going to be kicking back on your couch tonight enjoying the game, grinning ear-to-ear taking in the fun little sporting event?

Hell. I'll be a steady stream of misery from beginning to end. Then!! I'll finally come down off the ledge, exhale, walk circles through my house a thousand times, and try to go to sleep around 2AM (false).

Sad, I know. What's the point, right?

SMH.

Re: GYER36-0

Of course, I'll be miserable DURING the game. That's how it's been my entire life. That doesn't mean I don't love every it every other moment.

Not a fan of Calhoun the coach, but definitely a fan of Calhoun the analyst. Dude knows his basketball and doesn't have to be annoying or bombastic to get it across. Dare I say he seems more at ease and more affable in this position.

Re: GYER36-0

'96 I was miserable. Same way in '98. I think the Billy Gillispie era taught me to enjoy what we have when we have it a little more in case a redneck drunk decides to flush it so he can pick on 19 year old boys and chase tail with his personal limo driver/handler for two years.

Not sure how we are going to handle the 96 Wildcats and their vaunted press tonight. Shew nerves.

Re: GYER36-0

We have about as much chance at losing tonight's game than strolling up to a craps table and rolling a 6 right off the bat..... we're big favorites for a reason. ::just trying to ease nerves but I know that does no good in GYERO::

Jim Calhoun is evil and any other narrative to describe him is incorrect and misinformed. Pull yourself together. Jesus.

Re: GYER36-0

I've honestly enjoyed the last few weeks because i knew we wouldn't be challenged until the sweet 16 or beyond. I feel great about tonight's game. No way this season ends to WVU. There are 3 teams that can beat this team (and they need help from us) and none of those are until we get to the Final Four.

I just really hope someone from WVU gets put on a poster tonight and never recovers from it. To me, WCS dunking on that dude on Saturday and that dude never re-entering the game might be the greatest thing he ever accomplishes on a basketball court.

Personally, I'm hoping it is Devin Williams. I want a nice poster of the ball going through the net and knocking his glasses of his face.

Re: GYER36-0

PTI, if at all possible you should change to fly into Cincinnati instead. Shorter drive distance-wise, and O'Hare is north of Chicago meaning you'll have to drive through Chicago traffic to get to Indy. As someone who's driven through Chicago a couple dozen times in the past few years, you don't wanna do that if you can avoid it. That also assumes your flights don't get delayed. I've had my last 2 flights into Chicago be delayed due to air traffic in Chicago, and of my last 4 flights out, one was delayed 3 hours, one 2 hours, one was canceled after I got to the gate (that was a fluke though, some jackass tried to burn down an air traffic control building that day) and the most recent one was delayed an hour.

In summary, avoid Chicago at all costs, pay the extra money for a different flight.

For real, though - I have a hard time believing a dude will do anything that would damage his video game system.

Damn you GYERO. I was expecting chainsaw peckers and scorched earth predictions, not a bunch of flopping hen curtains. Pull your **** together, for Christ's sake. We didn't go 36-0 just to lose to West touching Virginia. Our season may end with a loss one day, but today is NOT that day

Any of us will throw a controller, though.

I bet I went through 5 controllers playing Madden '97 when we were in college.

These last few weeks have not been enjoyable in the least, if we're all being honest with ourselves. Every damn game has been stressful as hell. March Madness, at its core, represents misery - whether it's the misery of defeat or the misery of suffering through each game. This is probably not a healthy way to view things.
Agree 100%. When we are supposed to win it, it's hard to enjoy the ride. That's why it was so different for me in 2012. For some reason I was very relaxed about it, maybe because it was just "our time". In 1998, it was completely unexpected. But in 1978 and 1996, it was almost a burden until it was over. This season feels like that for me again.


In these types of seasons, it's all business. Can't celebrate unless and until we take care of that business.


But that is what makes it so awesome and incredible when it happens. The 4 times in my life I've seen the game end with us celebrating are unlike any other feelings I've ever had in my life. Sure, family milestones and personal accomplishments are more fulfilling in the long-term, but for a feeling like you've just ingested 1 lb of pure ecstasy, there's nothing like the hours after winning a national championship. It's like you're invincible, all is right with the world, all while you wear a permagrin that can't be erased.


Seriously, it's like no other feeling in the world. At least for me. I'm sure that's disturbing and sick, but it is the absolute pinnacle. And that's what makes all of the anguish worth it.


And . . . I just realized that the "real" season of stress just started for me this afternoon. We've known for months that it wouldn't / shouldn't matter until these next 12 days. It's finally Go Time.
