Tourney Time

Today should be a national holiday. Nobody should have to work on the first two days of the NCAA tournament. I'm going to miss being a college student today more than just about any other day. I'm really going to miss going to Tailgaters with Joel and Steve and Dave and eating cheesesteaks and watching basketball all day.


On a positive note, I quit my job at the oxygen factory. The ticket office called and begged me to come back to help out with the NIT tournament. So I quit. even if it's just for this week, I'd still rather be down here than working that crappy job. It's really nice sleeping in my own bed at my own apartment again. It's even nicer not having to get up at 4 am.

OSU lost on a buzzer beater to Cal St. Fullerton in the NIT last night. What a game. We were down 18 one point, and came back to tie it and had a chance to win it at the end of regulation, but DeWitz's three bounced off the rim at the buzzer. Then some guy named Ralphie for CSF hit a fadeaway jumper as time expired in overtime to beat us. Great game, great ending, just didn't go our way. It's a shame that David Lucas and JS Nash had to end their careers that way.

That's all I got. As a Beaver fan, I cannot wear green today. Plus, in support of the Jimmy V foundation for cancer research, it's wear your favorite teams apparel to work day. Thus, I'll be donning the orange and black
