First I had to deal with losing to Willy the Wave and now I have to face "Swoop." these mascots are killing me - OK I've lived in Washington my whole life so the "Eagle" is a cherished bird to me so I am going to stay away from trash talking "Swoop," but I gotta say he's no match for Rudy the Redhawk. Well technically Rudy really isn't a bird and Swoop is a protected bird by the government so I guess there will be no real mid air collision.
EWU is now 4-9 coming into my house KeyArena tomorrow night, but already has a win over the Redhawks 95-91 over in Cheney - They play in the Big Sky Conference (1-1)...whatever. We are 1-1 against the ACC.
EWU averages 73.1 ppg (impressive) shoots 42% from the field, 36% from downtown Cheney (where the hell is Cheney anyway?) and a measly 64% from the Free Throw line - they have no seniors on the roster but five players are averaging in double digits. SU is home for only two games in January and for once I would like to see the visiting teams mascot come visit so I can leave my Court Side seats and tackle him...or at least see a battle at halftime with Rudy - I need some spirit here baby - Matt Harper and "Ice Cream & Cake dance" - I'm over it (no offense Matt)
Pregame rally Thursday Jan 6th 5:30 at the Center Pavilion - Lunch with Coach Dollar Friday at FX McRorys noon everybody welcome and then Cal State Northridge Saturday night - can't wait to scout their mascot!
Great win tonight. I have to comment as I agree about "Ice Cream Cake." It's time to retire that and come up with something more SU specific.
ReplyDeleteSee you at the Luncheon.
