As for the Catholic dominance of the West Coast, no matter who won those games you would have said the same thing – all four schools are Catholic. It is, in fact, easy for Catholics to dominate that WCC as only Pepperdine is a non-Catholic school , if I remember correctly.

Now, as for the Zags regularly beatin’ down the Pilots like a redheaded stepchild: that’s no lie!

Regarding the APB game ending, what a horsecrap technical. The two teams were still in their huddle prior to OT, and three (3) frisbies hit the floor from overjubliant students, quickly picked up by a ball boy.

And the refs hit the home team with a game-deciding ‘T’. Pathetic.

On the other side of the coin, we have the KSU-Texas game. Could K-State manage to find a few fans who have actually watched basketball for more than ten minutes, please? When *every* whistle that goes against your team (and even a few that went in favor of it) is greeted with an over-the-top, angry crowd reaction, it just shows the world your hoops ignorance. Save the aneurysms for the calls that *really* suck, Purple… ‘kay?

In other news, the Jesuits dominated ‘Nova (in the second half).

Dan Jockitch getting run out of Bowling Green’s high school gymnasium on a rail but ending up the head man at IU less than a season later has to be the funniest story of the year.

how about handing out vials of holy water instead of cocktails? Okay, that sounded more appealing before I wrote it out.

Coming from another Jesuit institution that does not dominate in basketball (Fordham), and being a fan of a team that’s all about the bubble in the last 3 seasons (Syracuse), outside of Georgetown and BC (hate, hate!), am I allowed to like vicariously as a fan through Gonzaga as a Jesuit school?

Fifty points for that clarification of Catholic affiliation. (I leave the cocktails to Orson.)

Saint Mary’s is Lasallean, but the ‘Zags’ win over Portland is proof that the Society of Jesus hates Clive Charles, and thus America. It shocks the conscience.
