Ok, I heard on the radio today that if U of L gets a 1, 2 or 3 seed, we'd probably play in Dayton and Indy due to the Pod System.  While I doubt we'll get a one, we should get a 3 anyway.  That would be cool if the Cards could play in Dayton, Indy before moving on to the Final Four.  On WKRD, the callers in the first hour (obviously yUK fans by their comments...) didn't pick U of L to make it.  In the second hour, EVERY caller picked U of L to make the Final Four.  A lot of them picked Pitt (not ONE picked UConn which I found strange), all picked NC (of course) and a few of them picked Memphis for their 4th team.  One guy picked Michigan State to make it ONLY BECAUSE of their coach.  I like Oklahoma for my fourth team although the concensus seems to be that they don't play anybody.  I've watched them this year (love those  brothers....) and really love the way they play.  I can't wait until the brackets come out in what, 2-3 weeks?

Go CARDS!!

OK, here's what I want U of L  fans to do.....why not have a Stripe Out at the next home game.  Neutral Zone could sell striped TShirts for $10 that could easily slip over whatever we wear to the game. (I don't know who would make the shirts - maybe the same source that was used for the black out or white out shirts).  Think about 20,000 striped shirts (no whistles please)....I think it would be too fun.  I think it beats white out, black out, any out.  The refs wants to be the stars of the games?  We'll join in the fun. 

1/20/09   I just got a response back from TJ and he is sending my idea of a "Stripe Out" to their Marketing Department....looks like U of L is considering the idea.  Cool.

this is dedicated to my U of L buddies out there - Monday night's game was wonderfully exhausting and now what do we have?  Only the #1 team in the country coming in Saturday.  Take a look at this for tips on how to settle down and get rested up for another screamin' night at The Hall.   By the way, I was at the game and I loved the fact that most of us were on our feet the entire game - section 331 that is.  Go CARDS!
