Joy of it all

[Nevada Hoya]

Part of the enjoyment, maybe even a large part of it, in following the Hoyas should be the sharing with friends, alumni, and fans of the program (fotp). And this time of year should be the greatest for all the people lucky enough (resourceful enough) to make it to MSG for the BE tourney. Meeting old friends and making new ones should be one of your rewards for following the Hoyas. Out here in the hinterland (as many are), we find joy in discussing the Hoyas on the talk board (thanks, DFW) and chatting in the chat room. We can only imagine what it is like to be in NYC before and after the game, meeting at some pub, rooting for the Hoyas at the Garden, etc. Win or lose, don't miss the enjoyment of friendship and camaraderie. I hope everybody at the game today was able to enjoy the experience. Of course, a win or two or three or four would make the experience much more enjoyable. ;D

GO HOYAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SHIPWRECK THE PIRATES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice sentiments, Nevada. I am even further from MSG than you are, and have little hope of ever being there for the Big East Tournament.

So all you Hoyas at MSG, how about raising a brewski to your left coast (or near left coast) brethren. We're with you in spirit.

Hail Georgetown, those of us on the West Coast salute you!

SoCal, a rusty nail was my favorite mixed drink of all time. Haven't had it in years now, although I do have an airline bottle of drambuie. ;D Just have to find some Scotch. If I do, I will be doing some saluting too. The crew must be doing some serious saluting in NYC right now.

[SoCalHoya]

Let's hope they are!

Excellent sentiments, Nevada. I'm sitting in Chicago wishing I could attend. I hope that the folks in NYC raise a glass to absent friends.

SirSaxa's story about Jeff's dad epitomizes what I was talking about.
