In Colorado visiting family for Christmas.... went to Buffalo Wild Wings and asked for them to put on the game. Saw the last 5 minutes of the first half and all of the second half. Thought the GAELS played tough basketball against a team that simply would not go away. I've said this before.... and it is a continuing theme with this team.... they never quit or get rattled no matter the situation presented. They score in bunches, know they can and press the metal when the game is on the line. Jordan Paige hit some big 3 pt. shots today... same for Ben. Like that Delly took a HUGE 3 after throwing the ball away just seconds earlier. The "team" rebounded at the end and was the key to denying NE additional possessions. What I like most is this team knows how to play and win, what is necessary to win, and the mental toughness to accomplish all 3.

I will return to Buffalo Wild Wings again tomorrow with my SMC gear on loudly rooting for the GAELS. I didn't offend anyone today, though I almost accidentally hit the waitress when I cheered Delly's 3 today late in the second half. I will try to contain myself.... on second thought no I won't. Wish I was there in Hawaii!!!

GO GAELS.... beat the Trojans!
