SU Loses, Newcastle Wins!

SU lost yesterday in the Big East tournament to Notre Dame, 89-83. How can you possibly beat a team that shoots well from behind the arc and you don't. The answer is you can't, that is what makes March Madness well; MAD! Joe Lunardi, who writes for ESPN.com thinks we will be a 10 seed and play the Dookies in the first round. I hope that is true and I hope SU beats the crap out of them.

On a positive note, Newcastle United beat AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Cup, 4-2. From what I have read and the highlights I saw it was a deserved victory and probably could have been worse. The only thing that is troublesome is this thing they call away goals. Should AZ win the second leg 2-0, they would go through to the next round of the UEFA Cup due to away goals. The aggregate score would be 4-4 but because of the away goal rule, Newcastle goes home.

On another note... I don't know why men refer to teams as "Us" or "We". I am guessing we like associating ourselves with something that is greater than who we are. That however, is just a SWAG, a stupid wild ass guess.
