Villanova (MSG), Sat., Jan. 11 , 7p, CBSSN

Guys, realize that most of us are fossils (I’m class of ‘68), but Louie was the head of the committee that officially changed our name to Red Storm in June of 1994. We’re going on 21 years now, and it’s time it’s time to consign the Redmen name to the dustbins of history, along with the wooden cigar store Indian we used to lug around.
Maybe for you but not for this Brooklyn kid, classes of '63 and'66. Too many good memories attached to it! Once a Redmen Always a Redmen
 
So my sister turned 70 and there was a dinner Saturday night. I DVR'd the game.

CBS Sportsnet, such b.s., so when I went to watch it, they had SH Providence instead for over ten minutes, and joined our game with about 7 minutes gone by and a 19-19 score.

Then I have to listen to Lappas talking about going to the 40th reunion of their 1985 team, he was an assistant to Rollie. Quietly rooting for Nova.

So the block I DVR'd was 7-9PM, but of course, these games go over, so instead of seeing the whole game it cuts off with 3 minutes to go and the score still very close.

I should have DVR'd for 7-9:30 PM, but not seeing the first 7 minutes stunk. I did not need to see the end of a bad SH-Providence game.

Leaving 2 hour blocks for the games is silly, they go at least 2:15 in most cases without OT.
I have Verizon and whem programing a game in advance it always asks if I want to exend the recording 15 minutes 30 minutes etc and you click on how long you want to extend it
 
I know this is sacrilegious but I feel like we have to get something like the U-C-O-N-N UConn UConn U chant after a big play. They overtake the Garden when they do that chant

i agree. but this type of stuff is tradition at places like UCONN. it takes time and commitment from everyone. we don't have any tradition (that i can think of).

but yeah, something, like, We are... St. John's!, would be great after a big play.

That's another old time staple I could get behind, besides the fact that I am not St Johns in any way besides the team and this forum.

On a side note I got distracted and tried to search up a pic of the Red Man mascot from the mid 90's in sequined red tux, tails and top hat. He as apparently been scrubbed from the internet. Anyone got a pic to share?

You are almost a fossil fuel by now ( I kid I kid ! ) we are right behind you. If we don’t start winning it’s going ti be SigEp Jack Williams and Matt C arguing to themselves arguing about their sciatica and heat inside Carnesseca
 
Was it a line or something more impromptu. After the Xavier game, some players shook/slapped hands and the quick hug but it was out on the court, not a line and not organized.
It was a line. Not just guys who knew each other. Will watch for it tonight.
