straight ballin

(this is taken from the comments of "Chicago Bulls")

You won't catch me whining, but I like the friendly rejoinders.

I don't fault Self for leaving, just like you can't fault Roy for bouncing to UNC. There is a hierarchy, and Illinois is not at the top. Hopefully, Weber is part of changing this.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention Kansas was blown out by an unranked Villanova.
The Illini exposed the weakest part of their game, their front court, in an overtime win against Iowa and Westmont, IL's own, Pierre Pierce.

The most important news, however, is that your Chicago Bulls defeated the surging World Champion Detroit Pistons at Detroit. Hop on it.

Much love to House, for boldly going where no fair-weather fan has gone in the comments section of "Chicago Bulls".

Jeremiah, you claim you're not a basketball fan, but you remember Kerry Kittles? Tell us how you came to love him.

Not being a fan and not being knowlegable are two different things. For as much as I claim that basketball is boring and football is for girls, i do keep up somewhat with what is going on. Enough to have an intelligent convo about it.
As for Villanova...
I was HUGE into college b-ball a few years back for one year. only one year. i really dont know why. I delivered papers in the morning and one morning i saw villanova on the front page of the sports section for some reason. i fell in love with the name villanova. i kept saying it to myself over and over
villanova...
villanova...
so, i started watching and got hooked on Kerry Kittles. I mean, the dude was fun to watch, bro! I was so huge into Villanova and college basketball that year that I went out and bought the whole villanova jersey set. i still have my kerry kittles jersey. so, ever since if someone points a gun to my head and asks me who my favorite college basketball team is, I say villanova. and if that same person or someone eles sticks a gun to my head and asks who my favorite NBA team is, i will say "man, i'm really tired of people sticking guns to my head and asking stupid questions" and then i would tell them that I am a "clippers fan because Kerry Kittles plays for them".

Oh, but we do fault Roy for leaving. The dog! We applaud Self's choice. And we hate Roy. It's not an either/or proposition, it's a both/and. You know, the kind we learned about in Eastern Civ and philosophy class...

>>I would be remiss if I didn't mention Kansas was blown out by an unranked Villanova.<<
Yeah, yeah. Can we get back to mature conversation now? ;)

Jeremiah, I used watch Kerry Kittles back in his 'Nova days, too. Maybe that's how we became the bestest of friends. Thanks, Kerry
