Diary Part II

Well, I guess I owe the Memphis Tigers a BIG apology! They showed up today ready to play. They looked like the Memphis Tigers we know and love, but even better! Not only was our defense awesome, we had an offense. We were making three point plays all over the place! Tyreke had a great game, Sallie had a great game, and Donnell Mack had a BIG come back! Poor Maryland Terps, they only had one chance to make a basket, because we got all the rebounds, and they rarely made a basket the first try. We were shooting 80% the first half, and then settled down to 70% second half. We only won by 19 points, because Calipari allowed the bench to play. It was awesome!

Calipari said that he may have overlooked the fact that the newbies might have been excited and unsure about their first NCAA tourney. Well they have found a rhythm and it goes ,"DA DA DADA! DADA DA DADA DA! DADADA DADA DADA!"

  1. Lisa, You are becoming a basketball fan(affecionado,oops) and we are having so much fun watching the NCAA(instead of Food network,which I love,("most of the time") and we are getting Bubba up to snuff with his imfamous TIGER fight song. Bubba will be featured if we get to the final 4. Can't wait.

  3. What can I say? The Tigers really came together in the game with Maryland and gave it their all. I was starting to feel a little sorry for Maryland until my husband showed me an article in the paper where one of their players(Vasquez) spouted off some nasty comments about us.Taggart said that even in the first three minutes of the game Vasquez "was talking junk. After that,it stopped." Yeah,I guess so! "Three-pointers have a way of shutting up a guy.Especially when they're coming from everywhere," a local radio show host and sports writer,Geoff Calkins, said in today's paper. Amen to that!
