I cannot explain the reasons I hate Waldo so badly. I mean it is easy enough to understand why someone would dislike or even hate him, but he brings it to a whole new level for me.

He's very good at committing pretty obvious offensive fouls in the low post and getting the ref to ignore it or call it on the defender instead.

I listened to Brock Zylchstra doing the color commentating just before tip and then I saw him on an inbounds play. He has not aged well.

What about Mark Durrant? It wasn't until this year I'd seen him since college.

He played in the old days. Brock only appears to have been a player from the same period of time.

Wow, I must really be getting old. I remember when his older brother Devin spoke at our ward fireside.

But to get back to the discussion that's truly important, Kyle Collinsworth is a man among men. He can wear his hair however he wants, and it will still be sexy, because he's Kyle Collinsworth.

His improvement at the FT line is remarkable too. He used to lean every which way, back out on the release, etc and now he has a slow, deliberate process and shoots like he knows it's going in. Now if he can work on his midrange game he will truly be a Tyreke Evans-type player.

My buddy was wondering if KC would have improved as much as he did at the FT if he didn't get injured which gave him a lot of time to practice. His improvement there gives me hope that he can develop that midrange shot.

I'm not seeing much difference.

Definitely preferable to the mega-cowlick he has going on now. Either move that part or do away with the hairstyle, man!

Wait. I thought you were a cowlick supporter.

I think he is more of a Boris Diaw type.

Sorry to keep everyone hanging. It was a fun game to watch, a bit more physical than I had expected and both teams played with a lot of intensity throughout. Other than the band, the student section and Pacific fans generally were pretty docile, but very nice. There were only a few signs and all of them were either lame or, strangely, odes to the dance squad, although the “BY Who?” sign cut me to the quick.

We got to the arena about fifteen minutes before the tip and parked within a hundred yards of the entrance. Mrs. PAC suggested I back into my space to avoid getting locked in my spot by heavy post-game traffic, a suggestion that was funny at the time and hilarious later, since post-game traffic was nonexistent. We had a nice drive home, then I went to bed. We'll save the clubbing for Saturday, as Moraga is a much more swingin' place than Pacific as the Rossmoor retirement community is nearby. This is my report.

I hate that sign. It always gets my dander up.

Just watched the game. KC is a beast. Surprise of the game: Andrus gave us some quality minutes.

Andrus and Nixon aren't good D1 players yet (and may never be - I don't know), but they know how to play the sport of basketball. Worthington, not so much.

Even Sharp had a nice tip in, IIRC.

I think we don't really appreciate how difficult Worthington makes an effortless rebound or snr look. Maybe after he's gone next year we will understand just how incompetent he is. Maybe.

After he's gone? You still have doubt regarding his incompetence?
