A #9 ranking is like Hoya kryptonite

Well at least we know what our excuse is/will be come Saturday
Takes a load off my mind coming up with creative reasons for us to swoon.
Not be be a downer
but how the hell are we above Baylor who’s only lost to Kansas and MIssouri
She Hannibaled my Fabian!
because they've lost to both of those teams twice and more recently and in blowouts?
(except for one game vs. Mizzou a while ago). Recency is a huge factor. And that ’cuse loss, as much as it sucked, probably pushed us up the poll. Any coaches still doubting the team after that one likely stopped doubting.
because they’ve lost at home to them and have no wins worth much respect (Miss. St and….WVU, both at home?). We’ve beaten two top 20 teams, one on the road.
and because polls suck.

Reaction to the new ranking is coming in already
According to Mex Carey, Georgetown will be wearing alternate road jerseys and an ugly new Nike shoe at Providence this Saturday because “we’re already pretty much fucked.”
When reached for comment John Thompson III calmly stated, “We’re focused on taking the season one game at a time. We’ll evaluate where we’re ranked when it’s over.” When informed that the team was ranked number 9, Thompson added, “Oh fuck. Why’d it have to be 9? 10 we could handle, but 9? 9? Why God? Why?”
Upon learning of the rankings disaster, Ed Cooley handed the keys to a new car to a recruit’s mother and said, “We look forward to collecting our W on Saturday.”

Fixed it for you
Upon learning of the rankings disaster, Ed Cooley handed the keys to a new car to a recruit’s mother and said, "We look forward to collecting our W on Saturday." spat “look the part, be the part motherfucker!” at Avon Barksdale.
I can't wait for you clowns to lose to Senor Sticky Shorts tonight
Yearly tradition for you guys.
And although I do hope that the way we played against the #2 team in the country at their place with 4 freshmen for 15 minutes of the second half means that we are a good team…..something tells me it might also mean you guys ain’t so so good. Again, no real wins at all outside of the God forsaken town where your team resides. To be honest, if G’town is able to cut up that hokie zone like they did for 30-35 minutes of that game, I wonder what a team with a real point guard/experience would do against it. Looking forward to expectations not being realized once again for you guys…but hey, keep your chin(s) up…at least the weather gets good up there 3 months after your season ends during the second weekend!

Some are actually attractive
I met a cute guy on the Metro today (yep, it happens). We started chatting and really hitting it off. He asked me where I went to school. I told him Georgetown. Quick intake of breath. He told me he had gone to Syracuse.
We eyed one another. The silence was thick. I got off at the next stop without getting his name.

Well done
Walking away without getting his name was the proper way to handle that situation.
That, or murder.

What J-Wall's Mom's Broom said
Also, I would’ve asked why he moved to DC. I am sure there are plenty of combo KFC/Taco Bells in Canada

No such thing an anonymity on the internet anymore.
Too bad suxa isn’t ashamed by his emaciated frame and sunken face, or we might drive him away too.

PS I'd post of picture of me in a Giants jersey T-bagging a cardboard cut-out of Harbaugh...
but I don’t want it popping up on every post I comment on like this picture inevitably will.
…wait, I don’t troll random blogs? Oh right. Fatty.

Well, if you're dumb enough to link your twitter account...
And I’m going to have to insist on that t-bagging picture
She Hannibaled my Fabian!
I whole heartedly support this.
Cuse trolls aren’t people.

Thoughts
1. Corpulent is an under-used word, but if the size 40 dockers khakis barely fit …
2. I really like what you’ve done with the cabinets. Add some backsplash and you are looking at a $30,000 double-wide.
3. The 70’s called, they want your range back.
4. The purple gloves. Hahaha. Manual labor is for poor people.

some of these are wrong, but i'll just add
excellent beer selection of bud light, unidentifiable bottle, and is that a molson can?

Reports per Around the Horn
are that the Lakers may be looking at AI. Sorry Jonny Flynn

I read
This fell through because AI wouldn’t go to the D-League for a few weeks first.
