Tuesday News Roundup
- I've got about 10 projects at home I should be doing and 20 I'd rather be doing...
- There are more pictures of Halleigh hunting Easter eggs at In Medias Res. If you're not a regular IMR reader, you may have missed that we got a letter from Ben. Sounds like he's doing really well.
- The game on Sunday was fun. It was maybe the most dominating game I've ever seen in person. Arkansas helped us out some too, by missing a few open shots near the beginning of the game, and they never capitalized on their pick-and-roll, which was ALWAYS open. Still, I don't think they would have had a shot.
- Which brings me to the fact that every sportswriter in America is ignoring the Heels. As a number one that is basically playing at home and just destroyed their competition in the first two rounds, I would think that someone would be singing our praises, but it looks like Kansas and UCLA are the media darlings. I even saw someone pick Louisville recently, which could be a smart pick if it works out that way, but surely someone should have us as their pick. I have searched the major sports news outlets, and I cannot find one article that offers more than the obligatory support for UNC's case. It's odd to say this, but I really do feel that UNC is being disrespected.
- I've been several days now without reading a book. I need to elevate my game again. Look for more book reports ahead.
- I gave Kona Bean a bath this morning before work. She was REALLY dirty and she's started one of her biannual shedding seasons, so there will be giant dust bunnies of Kona hair all over the house if we don't groom her and vacuum. But she knows she is cute when she's washed and brushed and fluffy, and you can tell a change in her mood, so it is totally worth it.
- I going to try to post a Halleigh show tonight. Stay tuned.

i totally agree, but i'm enjoying this anonymity. let's anonymously score 110 ppg again this coming weekend. the pti boys did give us some love at the top of their show, but then they turned it into a backhanded comment by saying ucla is more prepared to win it all because they have struggled. i disagree. and i think everyone is going to be really surprised by our dominance this coming weekend.
Certainly, you have to have the toughness to battle through adversity to win it all... but there's a fine line between struggling and losing.
I think the struggles we've risen above already this season make me plenty confident in our ability to grind through tough competition. So I second the call for another pair of 30-point pastings this weekend. I hope we play with a chip on our shoulder and I hope we get to see how much a series of weak performances helps UCLA deal with 65% from the floor (50% 3pt) and 4:1 assist:turnover ratio. (Argh!)
