Georgetown Loses To Ohio State

Georgetown lost. What more can I say?
This might give Green and Hibbert another reason to stay; so they can win a championship.
At least Kevin Durant won Player of the Year.

Ha Ha Washington Post! The Kid Beat You!

Today the Washington Post published an article about college kids staying in school. Sounds familiar, right? The fact is, I posted something about the same thing yesterday. Mike Wise wrote about how Greg Oden (he only played college because of the NBA's age rule), Joakim Noah (who did stay in school), Al Horford (who did also), and Roy Hibbert (who supposedly hasn't made his decision yet). Like Greg Oden's going to play a sophmore year at Ohio State. Right....

Ah, but Mike Wise can keep his opinions to himself. I don't agree with him that Oden might stay in school, but that's OK. I agree that he SHOULD stay in school, just like I wrote. Oden is only in college because of the NBA's age rule.

Which means, according to the saying "great minds think alike," I will leave the decision up to you on who is the smart one.

Georgetown Players - Stay In School!

A lot of people know that Roy Hibbert, Jeff Green, are juniors, and not seniors. These two players have another year left of NCAA eligibility. So why are Green and Hibbert considering leaving Georgetown and going to the NBA? It has been said that Hibbert needs to get better before going to the NBA, and Green would be the first person in his family to graduate from college. So are they staying or going? That choice is up to them.

Caps Lose Again!

The Caps once again lost a lead; 2-0 to be exact, and lost again. The officiating was bad, but this is one thing I hate a lot. Every time the Caps play a team that has many fans, e.g. Detroit, Pittsburgh, or the Rangers (especially them), their cheers are louder then the Caps fans'. For example, the last Caps vs. Rangers match up I saw, whenever the Rangers scored, the Ranger fans (who must be crazy to come all this way for just one game) are obviously louder than Caps fans when we score. It was the same thing last night. The Pens fans "outcheered" us, as usual. This should not be happening, Caps fans! So the next Caps game you go to, when the Caps score, really cheer.

In other news, Brashear fought a Penguin alright, but it was not Crosby or Whitney. It was Georges Laraque.

Big Hockey Game Tomorrow!

Tomorrow the Caps play the Pittsburgh Penguins . So what if the teams have played each other already?! Maybe Ovie will knock out Sid the Kid on the boards just like he handled Daniel Briere... And maybe later he could get back at Ray Whitney for spearing him where it hurts the most last year; or Brashear could pull out a fight resembling this one (against Brendan Shanahan, when Brashear dusted off his hands).

Here is a great quote: "Our 87 (Brashear) can beat up your 87 (Crosby)."

Anyway, I hope the Caps win.

Georgetown Beats UNC!!!

There haven't been any new posts for a while because I was punished. And no, these are not excuses. My mom will vouch for me. (she will probably post something confirming this).

Today,a miracle happened for us Hoya fans. The Georgetown Hoyas beat the North Carolina Tar Heels to get into the Final Four in Atlanta. They play Ohio State (my man Roy Hibbert is 2 inches taller than "40-year old" 7-footer Greg Oden). The game started off with UNC having a small lead which grew larger and smaller as the game progressed. But, Georgetown came back and tied the game into OT. Then, GTown had a lot of rebounds in order to make UNC score 3 points in all of OT. Hibbert, Jeff Green, Jessie Sapp, and Jonathan Wallace were big contributors to the Hoyas' 22-3 run, which made Georgetown win the game.

But, that wasn't the best part...

I live not too far from the Georgetown campus, so when the game was over, my brother, Mom and I put on our Hoya jerseys and ran out to the enormous mob forming by our house. We followed the mob until we got pretty far from the gates. We led the crowd with rousing chants of "Hoya Saxa!!!" Many soon-to-be-drunk college students said such things as:"Oh look, a Baby Hoya" , " You rule kid", "You rock", and "Oh look it's my little brother". We got countless high-fives from students, Numerous pictures taken of us, and I am SURE that someone posted something of me on YouTube (go see for yourself)

Newsflash!

I'm on TV (FOX 5 to be exact)

This was a great night, and I'm sure I will remember it (at least until my hoarse voice gets better).

Caps Win 2 In A Row!

I'm sorry there hasn't been any new posts in a while. I was in a hockey tournament in Hershey, Pennsylvania, where my team did not do too well. Plus I have been in trouble this week...

Isn't it fun to play spoiler in a playoff race? The Capitals must think so, with two blowout wins against two contending teams, the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Tampa Bay Lightning, 5-1 and 7-1. Alexander Semin had a hat trick in the game against the Lightning.

Uh oh will have to post more tomorrow. Even if it is spring break (FOR TWO WEEKS!) I have to go to bed now....
