I was recently watching College Gameday on ESPN the day of the UNC-Duke game. They were trying to figure out why Tyler Hansbrough was so good, they went to a segment about Tylers personal life, and he described a game that sounds sooo painful... TEXAS STYLE PING-PONG!! The rules are the first guy to score 2 points gets to make the other guy lift his shirt up and he gets to hit a ping-pong ball AS HARD AS HE CAN....
Now this if anything is a reminder that these guys are just crazy college kids, since we look at them almost as professional players. Now i am a huge UNC fan but i have to admit, this is a very funny game, but come on.... what do u think the guys in the locker think when they see him with huge welts on his stomach. THey probably think someone is beating the poor boy, who u think could take care of himself... well i guess thats why they call him...
PSYCHO T!!!
THen the HEELS go on to win tonight 76-68 way to go TARHEELS... they are now ACC Champions for the 29th time, all this amazingly though without tyler getting to go to the free throw line... AT ALL. THis is only the 2nd time in Tyler's career at UNC!
THis is a new thing i will put up every Saturday listing the top ten things that DRIVE ME CRAZY from this week
#10- Roger Clemens- Okay I loved Roger as a pitcher and I respected him as one of the best players of the era but COME ON!! I am tired of the recaps of his hearing and all the theories about what happend. He should admit that he did it and just get this all over with.
#9- Bill Freakin Belichick!- I dont care about the STUPID Spygate thing, what is so aboslutly horrible about this? He taped a couple of games OOOOO wat are we gonna do, aparently take it to Congress!! We all know he is not the only coach doing this but he is the only one STUPID enough to get caught!!.
#8- Ashley Judd- Well apparently Dario Franchitti's wife Ashley Judd isnt quite important enough yet to be able to break dress code, i understand the no short pants rule for men and the open toe shoes for anyone it is a safety issue but no dresses?? is she going to get sucked up into a giant garage fan and have it get ripped up?? i dont see the problem but i think if nascar doesnt want her to do it she shouldnt and just wear jeans a team t-shirt and a ball cap like the rest of the wives!
#7- Everyone thinks Dale Jr is going to have a great season because he got some luck and won the Bud Shootout and a Duel WHOO HOO!!! This cannot project how the rest of his season is going to go.
#6- I have no idea what this Kelvin Sampson dude did at Indiana... it sounds like he made some bad phone calls about something or another and then lied about some stuff, I DONT CARE!! So people just shut up about it!
#5- NBA sissys, all the babies in the NBA, like Kobe Bryant with that torn ligament in his finger, OH NO hes gonna die! I say we load these babies up in some hockey pads and see if they survive getting hit by 200+ pound men, the hockey guys play with broken BONES!! and this sissy is complaining about a hurt pinky finger.
#4- Okay i will go ahead and voice my opinions Golf, I cant stand it. It has to be the most boring "sport" to watch on TV oh my god i just dont get what is entertaining about it. I say we should ban Golf on TV and put on a better sport to fill up the time spot.
#3- There is no love for NASCAR on TV ever!! It is the day before the biggest race of the season and a GOLF tournament that NO ONE CARES ABOUT is getting more air time than it is. The day after a race the winner might get a whole 10 seconds of air time on Sportscenter but Some stupid basketball game between two teams who no one cares about gets 2 or 3 minutes. WHY??
#2- Its halfway through the regular season in NBA basketball WOOP-DE-DOO!! Most of the teams have played around 50 games, and now it is time for everyones "favorite" time of the NBA season, the All Star game or as i call it "THE GATHERING OF THE EGOS!!!!" WHo cares about it No one is gonna watch it!
#1- The top thing bothering me right now is how Dook fans are still bragging about how great they did when the beat Carolina, i dont know if i was the only one who actually watched that game but neither of the teams did a good job! Everywhere you looked the entire game there was one player from each team with his #### on the floor!! Come on just wait till March 8!!
If you dont want a game recap skip down past the first two paragraphs
With one minute left the score is 82-80 Clemson was up the Clemson guy misses his free throw and Carolina gets the ball they run down the court Thomas makes the shot to tie it up, this was the first time that the Tarheels have tied it up after being down by at least 15 in the second half, 19.4 seconds left Clemsons ball, Hansbrough knocks the ball out of bounds with 00.6 left not enough time for a shot, Clemson inbounds the ball!! We're going to OVERTIME!!
In overtime Carolina had their first lead of the game, just to let Clemson tie it back up, (if you can't tell i am writing this as it is happening so sorry if there is some things that sound repetitive or whatever) To sum up the 5:00 overtime, Clemson had posession of the ball about 4 minutes and it was all passing, Carolina is down 87-84 with 2:06 left Hansbrough makes both foul shots Tarheels up to 87-86. THen he fouls and the Clemson player doesnt make his shot, they get the ball and then Tyler makes up for that horrible foul with those 2 points. 52.9 there is a time out. THis game is killing me Carolina has come back from an absolutley horrible regulation time to tie it up and then pull ahead in OT. I hate media timeouts they should play the games uninteruppted!! Its imbounded Olgelsby makes the 3 for clemson then they foul, Carolina gets to shoot the first shot is GOOD!!!! the second shot is GOOD!!! its all tied up with 37 left!! Clemson dribbles around then they knock it out, Clemson ball with 03.2 left. Shot clock violation on Clemson its a Carolina ball!!! Oh my God i think we are going to DOUBLE FREAKING OVERTIME!! HAHA ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! Hansbrough gets the first shot of the 2nd overtime it is 92-90!! Ellingtons shot wont go!! Hansbrough is fouled!!! the first shot is GOOD!!! The second shot is GOOD!!! They foul Mays only one of his shots is good. 3:17 left, Hansbrough walks it. David potter gets a shot off!! Green brings it down and is fouled by Stitt he fouls out. Greens first shot is good!! His second shot is GOOD!! Carolina is up by 3. Tyler steals it!! Potter Fouls TYLER!! his first shot is GOOD!! His second shot is GOOD!! Carolina by 5! 1:20 left! Ellington shoots Carolina is up 100-93!! and someone is fouled and their shots are good it is 102-93 with 16.1 left its all over!! Hansbroughs shots are good!! CAROLINA comes back frome a 15 point deficit to win in the Dean Dome!! 103-93!! HOLY ####!!
THat was definatly a great great game!! 2 overtimes and 103 points, half of which it seemed like were Tyler Hansbrough's foul shots. WOW that is all i can say is WOW. THey still didnt have Lawson but Thomas played great.
Yea the Tarheels did suck #### in the regulation time but when it came to overtimes it was obviously all Carolina by the second overtime. If you say that Carolina did not fight for that win tonight then you are #### NUTS!!
Clemson now possesses one of those records that you dont wanna have, they have lost 53 straight in the Dean Smith Center from 1926 until now!! haha that has to be the saddest record to hold knowing that it is almost physically and mentally impossible for you to win at this one school!!
