The big fandom event
So. I've been checking around the "friends" list, and seeing what's up on TV, and I thought I should comment on what's going on in my fandom.
Right now, I'm so very glad Carolina hiredHuckleberry Hound Roy Williams to coach. Because Roy Williams is a great coach who raises the bar for the ACC. Because Roy Williams plays an uptempo style of ball at UNC that I love to watch.
And because Roy Williams can't beat Maryland.
Terps 90. Tarheels 84.
It was one of the best games the Terps have played all year. Terps not named Jamar Smith went 19-21 from the free throw line, which is rather impressive given their shooting. There were big runs, back-and-forth lead changes, great defense with bodies flying all over the place for loose balls, tough inside baskets, and some nice tense moments in the last minutes before the Terps pulled it out.
Also, I'm to understand there was some sort of BB fandom thing. I've posted my share of vehement and/or incendiary comments on one board or another. But I can never get particularly worked up over fandom politics, particularly given my experience working in actual US politics. Fandom_Wank can bite my crank. Go Terps!
