Yeah, I’m really looking forward to tonight’s games. It took about 20 minutes for my heart to stop pounding after the UNC game. My section was completely overrun by Tar Heel fans. The atmosphere was electric.

“…it has a cocktail party feel to it…” Roy did say it was one big cocktail party! :p

She, my brain is so drained. I obviously meant he.

I hope GT wins.

I’m glad that Ty’s toe is at least getting better. Hopefully she will be good for the NCAA tourney. We probably won’t need him for first and second round games so he can get more rest then too.

TY UPDATE

What’s the update on the toe? Have you been able to do anything the last couple of days?
“Nope, just straight icing it and running on the bike. That’s the only thing I’ve been doing recently, because I can barely walk on it. It’s real tough to walk.”

Has it gotten worse throughout the week?
“It got worse on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday, that’s when I started seeing the swelling go down. I started to see the veins in my foot again and things like that, because those first two days, my whole foot was swollen.”

What’s your status for the rest of the weekend?
“The swelling finally went down from the Duke game, probably like two days ago, so we’re going to see how it is when I wake up in the morning. It’s been gradually getting better, which is good.”

If this was a NCAA Tournament game, would you have played?
“No, I wouldn’t have played at all, unless they injected me. But other than that, I wouldn’t have played.”

Tonight should be fun for C.Michael, hopefully.

C.Michael: Checking out from the Dome. This game is pretty unwatchable.

The worst thing about these tournaments is that most of the folks that go are hoity-toity rich people. Hence, the cocktail atmosphere. They are not necessarily representative of the majority of Tar Heel fans from places like Mars Hill.

I’d like to see Tech find their legs so they can at least take some out of FSU.
