magical run
this and that

but it will never happen

You probably thought OJ would never be acquitted too.

83 gave us hope that it could happen again. its one of the best and worst things to even happen to a state fan.

thats like saying.

1894 gave us hope when leroy said no to his master

There's an old saying....Never say never.

Oh yeah, and how about "Don't give up, don't EVER give up"?

Sure, it's easy to play the cynic and say that it won't happen. 99% of the time you'll be right. But you're also missing out on the hope, that small chance that makes this game so great. George Mason almost proved last year that miracles STILL can happen.

March 10 is my birthday... and every year, all I want is for the Wolfpack to win the ACC tournament. We've come close...

I figured since I was 21 or so days old when the Wolfpack won the national championship in 83... that maybe some more magic will happen for me...

3/5/2007 9:59:39 AM

would you rather have a final four appearance (with a loss in the first game) or win the ACC tourney?

3/5/2007 10:06:47 AM

Right now, I think I'd rather have the ACC tourney. Because we won't even go to the tournament without that...


I understand that i'm extrapolating too much... If the two are mutually exclusive then I still take the ACC Tournament win.

3/5/2007 10:13:20 AM

I never, for a second, thought "this could be the year"

I predicted 15-14 prior to the season, and that's where we finished.

3/5/2007 10:29:39 AM

did you doubt the 83 team?

Tell you what, Bobby, since NC State probably has a 100:1 odds of winning the ACC Tournament, I'll bet you a dollar that we will win... in the event that we do win, you pay me $100.

If we don't, I'll paypal you $1.

I'll be happy with a first round win over dook.....then were guaranteed not to have a losing season, any more than that is a bonus imo.

3/5/2007 10:35:59 AM

It is worth $100 to me for us to win the ACC championship, so I will take that bet.

Also, I wouldn't mind a free dollar

3/5/2007 10:36:22 AM

bets on. I look forward to paypalling you $1.

3/5/2007 10:51:47 AM

shhhhhhhhh. Actually I don't know the odds... only that a win for the wolfpack is "highly unlikely"

One game at a time.

I hope you're pondering losing 100 dollars on Sunday, Bobby.

TWO MORE GAMES!!! $100 FOR ME

3/9/2007 9:31:20 PM

It's looking a lot closer to a magical run.

2 more games.

Hell, I even think 1 more game won would be a magical run.

3/10/2007 12:22:14 AM

When we beat Carolina...I said, "This could be possible."

Everyone shook their head and laughed; there's no way the Wolfpack could do it, they were expected to be last in the ACC pre-season.

Well fuck UNC and shun the non-believers, because it is possible, and we can do it.

I'm not saying we've done it yet, and I'm not saying we are going too, but man, the hope is what keeps the game alive. If you can't be passionate about the love of the game, why do you even bother?

Let's Go Wolfpack!!!!

3/10/2007 2:49:55 AM

dont bother brother

3/10/2007 8:16:14 AM

I'm going to make a list of things I can spend a dollar on.
