Probably, but I think Clock Tower will back me up when I say the algebra teacher was the only one who regularly announced we were driving him to drink. (one of his other common quotes was "why do I get all the morons?" I don't think teachers talk like that today) I can verify Tom speaks the truth - as I indeed had him too! Spent many a Friday aft before I got my license waiting for my lift, since having him last class of the day, as soon as he saw the beer delivery truck backing into campus "beep-beep-beep" he would stop class and cut us loose. 30 kids roaming the halls like a pack of wild dogs. No joke. Many other funny stories about him too... Long passed, but still revered by all those who had him. I can attest that the same Friday beer/wine/liquor was a weekly occurrence in the early sixties when the school first opened.

Navy beats GW in its opener, 78-71. Richard Njoku looked very good in the middle for the Mids.

Navy beats GW in its opener, 78-71. Richard Njoku looked very good in the middle for the Mids. Yes, he looked very good - MUCH better than last year when he averaged 10 mediocre minutes a game as a soph. Last year: poor defensive rebounding, way too many fouls, awful FT shooting, and a terrible pct of turnovers. If he can play at a high level all year, Navy could definitely be a contender. On a personal note, I'd hate to see him develop into a star, as his two finalists were Navy and Bucknell.

Navy takes down George Washington George Mason beats D3 Queen's NY college by 1. Atlantic 10? Not that it makes it a lot better, but it was Queens University of NC, who was a replacement for Northeastern in this Paradise Jam game. Queens was 24-7 last year and made the D2 national championship field. Fwiw, Massey ranked them as being stronger than 16 D1 teams last year.

We're not interested unless one of those 16 D1 teams was Holy Cross. Oh, yeah, I guess we're interested.

Navy was only down 7 at the half after Maryland shot 60% in the first half. Guess the wheels fell off in the second half.

Navy took 55 shots to Maryland's 44 but could not put the ball in the basket. Navy was 6-24 on threes while Maryland was 8-15. On twos Navy was 16-31 but Maryland was 22-29. Maryland had a FT advantage 14 of 19 versus 2 of 4 for Navy. Maryland controlled the boards

We should be playing, this sucks having to wait and then play such a messed up schedule. Yeah, but our kids aren’t turning ankles, jamming fingers, etc. during games like some other teams are right now. That’s all I’ve got. And, we can watch other teams play. Almost forgot that.

Navy picked up a game at Georgetown for tmro evening - I agree with those that say the academies playing and the rest of the league idle is bogus.

It's a good thing that we are in 'a league of our own'
