Sorry to take the smiles off of everyone's faces...but Pitt did some damage on campus.
Some traffic signs are spray painted with "Pitt" and the "Hoya Saxa" off of Canal Street is now tarnished with "f*** the Hoyas" and "Go pitt" or something to that nature. And thats all that I personally saw.
Not cool. Kinda puts a damper on this win.

Doesn't dampens the win. It makes it all the sweeter! Have a nice ride back home to that garbage station you call a city, you @#%&*!

Aww those cute little Pitt fans, I will take this vandalism as a badge of honor for how we are now the best team in the east, it is a sign of hatred and we thrive on it
Go Hoyas, EDITED
MOD NOTE: please try not to stoop to their level here. Thanks.

Previous thread locked, only have this to say:
We can spraypaint over their graffiti, but they can't spraypaint over their loss today.
Oh snap...

That's a good idea. I'll send them to DeGioia as well. Also...Hoya Blue President and everyone else - I know that if you put together a time, I would absolutely volunteer to repaint the sign. I also saw another kid down there when I took my pictures and he felt the same way so know that if you organize it, people will come.

I would like them to be sent to the following people:
1. MPD if they show anyone doing it. 2. Pitt's President with the request for an apology.

I'd be up for it too, and getting a lot of people out there could help turn this big downer into a positive.

Let's get a van together and head to Steel City tonight. I'm serious. Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Retailation has to be in proportion to provocation. If they want to show how classless and juvenile they are (honestly, I thought I left wanton vandalism back in high school) we should show how properly Georgetown we can respond. Therefore, I propose the following alternatives:
a) Gather our SCOTUS justice wannabes at the Law Center and send them to Pittsburgh to sue for damages until the "University" is bankrupt. b) Take control of their hospital and run it into multimillion-dollar operating losses.

I don't take this as a reflection on Pitt's program--I respect their coach, players, and how hard they play. With that said, I do take it as a reflection as to what type of people live there. What's more disturbing, the vandalism or the fact these people TRAVEL WITH SPRAY PAINT to do this? Wow--guess there isn't much to do in that city but worship at the alter of Tunch Ilkin and wonder where Ben Rothliesberger is going to crash his motorcycle, and bring along spray paint on road trips to commit vandalism at a school, whose program is full of Crips/Thugs. What's funny about our "thugs" is that they will be getting degrees from one of the most prestigious schools in the Country and Pitt's kids have to live in Pittsburgh while getting a mediocre/to worthless education or as they say in Pittsburgh-edumication.

Wow! A few people spray paint a sign and it's a reflection on the type of people who live in Pittsburgh?

Mods, can you please edit Hoyabliu's remarks? I don't think his language is appropriate for us basketball fans to see on this nice clean message board.
