Elaborate planning, careful thinking, and thoughtful articulation were no remedies for some of the mistakes made today. Sometimes we’re just fallible.

Fans of Big East basketball will likely never forget the moment Dejuan Blair threw Hasheem Thabeet over his back in one of last year’s classic UConn-Pitt battles. (If that wasn’t a sign of who would be better in the NBA….). Tonight Pitt travels to UConn for the first match-up between the two powerhouse schools. This game definitely shows how parity can exist in college basketball, where last year the two games between these two schools often included little 1s and 2s next to their names, tons of ESPN hype, and several future NBA ballers. Yet this year, these two teams are incredibly different, trying to find their respective ways through a top-heavy Big East that includes neither (at the moment). Unfortunately, I have class during this game tonight and will not be able to watch the two battle once more, but the game should serve as a reminder that Number 1 rankings are never guaranteed in college basketball.

Next to John Wall, is there a more exciting player to watch than Evan Turner, aka The Villain. I think not. And look at those shorts!

“Boise” And What This Is All About

All the preceding posts were lyrics to most of the songs from the album Worst Band Name Ever by the band UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT B A START. It is one of the quickest albums I have ever listened to that actually stuck with me. I love everything about it, from the simple music to the hushed vocals to, most especially, the lyrics. The lyrics are not available online anywhere, so I quickly typed them up as I listened to it. My favorite song is “Boise,” preserved on the Internet below, because it is a highly cynical song about being a touring indie rock band.

When we got into your town,

Everything was closed, like everywhere else on a Sunday.

Wish I were on the east coast,

We’re not mad we drove all the way from home

To gladly play a show

For two people.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

If we start heading home, everyone will know.

We could not make it out to the West Coast.

So we’ll drive through the night to the Rolling Stones.

We’re not mad we drove through 6 hours of snow

To gladly play a show

For two people.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

WHEN WE COULD BE HOME MAKING MONEY.

“Maureen Kehoe”

I will try all night to be nice.

I’ll even come over in the morning.

To fix your car so you can drive it farther away.

From cutting hair in your parents’ basement.

And I am the number one fan of you getting married to him.

So you can pull one on Uncle Sam.

I swear, if you leave….

You won’t come back, cause you’re tired.
