NIT tournament discussion - 1st round games

Good seeing the Jays and the C-Link again.

Billyjack, they have changed the name from C-Link to CHI Health Center this year because CHI paid more. It now sounds like you are going somewhere to get a health checkup, not going to a basketball game. Hopefully like a colonoscopy for visiting teams! In any case we haven't come up with a good nickname and CHI Health Center doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. We need something like "The Dunk" or "Clink" or something that makes sense for the name. The good news is that they obtained the naming rights for 25 years, so there is time!

Thx jfan!
Yeah, i forgot the new name... but the "Chick" could work maybe?
And thx, always a good time to remind older fans to get a colonoscopy!

...the Chico...a great place to park your chica...BookWood will steal her while you're watching the game.

[jfan]

Thanks guys. I like Chick, although I suspect I will get "the stare" from my wife. I was going to use prostate exam as the example, but no one wants to be reminded of that! Gtmo, I liked your name, but I wasn't sure about the reference. Is that a Panamanian thing?

[gtmoBlue]

No, just a Spanish thing... Chico - male, boy. Chica - female, girl.

[jfan]

No, I got that, it was the other reference that confused me.

Xavier @ Texas, 4:00, ESPN - Ted Emrich, Lance Blank
Sunday.

A reference to Booker Woodfox. An old photo used to have a caption: He wore tights because your girlfriend asked him to. Booker was quite the womanizer it seems.

[jfan]

Ok, a Booker reference! I looked it up on the Net and couldn't find anything that fit. I didn't know Booker had a rep. Back to the NIT----go X we need some wins!!

[gtmoBlue]

Need someone to continue playing...for old times sakes...C'mon DePaul, Xavier, and Creighton!

3 seconds left on the clock. Quentin Goodin missed FT #2 that would win the game. Hankins misses the putback layup...on to OT in Austin Texas. AARRRRGGGH!

Poor X FT shooting all game long.

Naji misses layup with 1 sec left in OT to tie it... game over Tex 78 - Xav 76. (2nd round of NIT)
