Well that was depressing

This past weekend was perhaps one of the most depressing in the world of UVA sports in a while.  After having five people (Greg, Kirby, Diane, Rico, McKenzie…just so they don’t yell at me for not giving them a shout-out) crash at my place on Friday night in excitement for the UVA-Tech game, we were all led to disappointment.  I won’t go into all the details on our failure, nor will I start pointing fingers right now (if I were, my finger would be pointed right at Al Groh.  Pay attention to Lloyd Carr’s story - it is very important to win your rivalry game more than once every 8 years), namely because I’m just too depressed to relive the trauma.  I’ll say that our team played decently, certainly during the second quarter.

My depression was further capped by our men’s basketball team dropping one to Seton Hall in the Philly Hoop Group Classic finals.  (Side note:  Can an event be a “classic” if it is in its first year?)  Sadness ensued.  Still though, I like our team this year.  If Lars or Ryan can step it up and get some freakin rebounds and be a more dominant force under the basket, we should be looking good this season.

Also, Kyle Singler sucks.
