CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – So, the first thing I see as I walk off my plane and into Logan Airport? A Patriots t-shirt on display with the words “Road to PERFECTION” scripted across the team logo. The funny part? It was on sale for 18.01. OK, just kidding about that last part, but who in their right mind would buy that shirt?
Anyways, we’re still a few hours from game time, but by about 9:30 p.m. we should know a lot more about this men’s basketball team. Winning at Georgia Tech was nice, but a win here at Boston College against a desperate Eagles team would be even nicer.
It’s cold, rainy and by tomorrow morning snowy up here, so enjoy watching from the comfort of your home, wherever you are. Oh, wait, you can’t – the game is on ESPNU. Well, that gives you an excuse to take that lovely stroll to one of the local bars or to the TerpZone, which will certainly have the game.
A quick, random fact about that station: In the 2007-08 school year, Terp teams are a combined 2-3 when their games air on ESPNU:
Football: Loss @ Wake Forest, 31-24 in overtime; Loss @ UNC, 16-13
Basketball: Win vs. North Florida, 79-50; Loss @ Missouri, 84-70; Win @ Charlotte, 76-72
Take that for what it’s worth, if anything at all.
