It's Time For The "SHIP"

I should have known. I normally rise every work day at 5.15am. I awake most mornings between 4.30 and 5.00 so I really don't need an alarm to get up. My Saturday's are the days to sleep late which might keep me in bed to 6.30 or so. But not this morning.

I'm ready to head to Chapel Hill right now, with a few side stops along the way. The Pack's ACC tournament victory near midnight last night made sleep almost impossible before 1 am. I was awake at 4.30 or so right on schedule. Breakfast is done shower is out of the way, all I need now is the car load from my house to get jumping. I have already changed out clocks so that problem will be out of the way when we get home after midnight tonight.

Win or lose tonight the team schedule is for them to get back to the gym around midnight. It would be nice if a caravan followed them home hopefully honking a victory honk. Like baseball there needs to be a crowd waiting at the gym win or lose.

Jammin 99.3 coverage will begin at 6.30 pm. Wes has a pregame chat with Mike Gainey already done that will be part of our pregame. If you are stuck somewhere in this world not in the coverage area WZAX they will be live streaming over the internet.

Time Warner will be taping the game but since the 4-A championship is going on live at the same time as ours I don't know which game will be live. More than likely the 4-A game. Some time tonight and Sunday you can go on line@ www.news14.com and see the Gryphons play.

They look a whole lot better live and in person in the Dean Dome. They need your help. If you were not planning on going, get an impulse, a spur of the moment thing. It is only 80 miles and $10. These moments only happen it seems every 28 years for basketball. If it is 28 years before they return to the big dance how old will you be then?

I will blog as soon as I get home. 1.00 am or so

Go GRYPHONS!!!!!!!
