Default 4 Minutes and 7 Seconds

That is how long Tech went without bring the ball across midcourt, not including for free throws.

Holy crap.

I spent the majority of the game with my wife in a yarn store.



Yarn store.



And now that I know how the game went, I'm glad I didn't watch. I'da probably broken a window.

And he's gonna look so dashing in our uniforms. Btw I went to a HS game last week and someone paged Bill Donaldson lmgtlao!!

Forgot about that. And no, not in my book because we didn't have control of the ball when it crossed.

What the heck could you be doing in a yarn store for that much time? Unless "Yarn Store" is what shows up on the credit card statement when you go the Cheatah these days. If you took your wife to the Cheatah instead of the game...

It was bad. There are some games that you come away relieved to win, and there are others when you still feel like you lost even after you've won. This was the latter...I feel like I felt after the Gardner-Webb football game last year.

Our intramural team could get the ball across halfcourt against NC St faster than that.

I would tell you to give up your man card, but you could use the yarn to fix things that you tear up watching games the rest of the year. You should have watched the adjustments we made after throwing the ball away three straight times after NC State made a bucket.

The yarn store is the worst. The ones I always end up at have that potpourri/candle smell.

Watching Tech not be able to get the ball across half-court for 4 minutes sounds fairly amusing.

Year before last. Just to distance ourselves more from that game.
