saint Francis

Kudos to Glenn Braica for not trying to sugar coat the loss.......he was brutally honest and 100% accurate...... The Terriers lost the NEC title game because certain alumni were too preoccupied and self centered to watch the game..... Glenn showed hutzpa by calling out his old bishop ford teammate by name....."Dennis Nolan, or eggroll as some of you know him, flat out refused to watch the game" Glenn stated....." He had a meeting......not a special meeting.....but the same ol tired meeting he has been attending for twenty plus years".......,he continued... " this is a meeting he attended on Monday and will probably attend on Wednesday..... The same format and hungover rambling that plays out 179,000 times daily across the nation in churches, school cafeterias and pine rooms"....the angst and frustration was clear on Glenn's face as he struggled to continue.... " a frustrated Ford Falcon I suppose" was the only reasoning Glenn could come up with when quizzed further about the absent eggrolla...... But it was plain to all that Das Das Strovika had cost his beloved almamater a shot at history.

Stalwarts from around the tri state area ( and Staten island,) gathered in Taverns to cheer on the Terriers and attempt to out drink the coolers....I was in Brannigans of Red Bank with former Saint Franks Valedictorian Donnie Hoff as the mood swung from a new years eve gala to groundhog day.

Young Dan Woods was spotted in the Yellow Hook sipping an IPA and waxing poetically about the Trapp Bros and Joe Friesen to no avail.......as once again the college of knowledge snatched defeat from inevitable victory........."I did my part" Dano was quoted as saying as he waltzed out after the game.

Steven Oliver and Dennis McDermott were inconsolable after the loss, but Roy Dilorenzio banged to put it in perspective.... " most guys were more interested in the Rangers v Islanders to be honest"......good point Roy.....the truth shall set you free.

I hate to say this tom, in case your on the bridge contemplating jumping, but I couldn't help but think if the ucla of downtown Brooklyn played against duke, I think they would lose by more than 100 points...even a girls high school team hits more foul shots...what is going on here?

how could they miss so many foul shots...do they practice that anymore?
