Georgetown game watching

[MU82]

Good morning from Minneapolis. It's 9:40 and the sun has heated things up to negative 11.

Can't remember which year it was, but we lived in Minny from 1985-94 and one year there was a 30+ day stretch in which the temperature never once even got to zero. It was record-setting and made the national news.

The day it finally got there - and warmed up all the way to 20 - our kids and their friends were running around outside in shorts and t-shirts! Good, clean, Minneapolis fun!!

I was there from '87-90 and I think the winter of 1987-88 had a cold spell like that ^

This is the first time in a while we've had this. 

Making ice!!!!

It's civil war time at my house, and we'll be staying in to watch.  This is the first Warriors-Hoyas matchup since my daughter started at GU in the fall.  It's time for her to learn that while I rooted for the Hoyas during VB season, BB season is different.  I hope Marquette beats them by 30.

I'm open to suggestions for wagers.  Anyone on the board ever wager with one of your kids who went to a school that plays MU?

Doing dishes.  Making breakfast.  Cleaning the dog poop in the yard.

Good Luck with your Champ game.  Bring Home a Winner!

We did! Jumped to an early lead, struggled in the middle of the game to fall behind by 2, but got it together in the 4th quarter to win by 10. We're 13-1, best start in school history, and ranked #1 in the Charlotte metro area. Very proud of our girls and our great head coach.

And then, on the way home, I did the best I could to watch MU on FSGo. The signal wasn't great and I kept losing it, but I did see a couple of Rowsey's big 3s! Looking forward to Wed against Providence; my girls tip off at 6 ET, so I'll probably miss the first half of MU. But I hope to have another double-header win!

We were at my parents in NW Wisconsin about 1989 and I remember it being about -35 degrees. Could not start my car for days  until a heat gun was used on the oil pan, a hair dryer on the battery and a radiant heater was underneath the engine to warm things up.

My car was equipped for the Tropics -- Chicago!

Congratulation.  Just such a great thrill to be involved in all those young girls victory.  OK you know what to do. Good Luck Wed.   Bring it Home.
