The trailer for Clerks 2 is finally out, I just watched it… twice! It’s going to be GREAT. I really think that after the bomb of Jersey Girl K.Smith really felt like he had to go back to the well and kick it up a notch. I know this is an Internet only trailer.. because of the “fuck” and ATM reference. But this movie is going to kick so much ass. Watch it and meet me there August 18th.
Later!
Well I can’t say that I’m not sad that they finally lost. This was one of the coolest weeks ever, every day there would be another story about how incredible it was for Mason to even be there. After beating Michigan st, UNC, Witchita st, and UCONN I thought we could beat anyone. But We played like crap in the second half and couldn’t come back against the stereotypical white guy making 3 pointers. It was very sad.
But I am so proud of our guys! People in the DC area have always know that GMU was a great school, but this finally gets us some national attention. I guess this means that I can move out of the area and my diploma will be respected! Keep your chin up Mason fans! At least this means we’ll be able to get some real college tshirts and stuff, which were never available before!
Go Mason!
Later!
So I fell asleep on the subway this morning. I was just talking about this last night. I think I dozed off at metro center ans the next thing I knew I was waking up in an empty train at the Potomac Ave stop. Not a bad nap! I think that’s link 7 or 8 stops. I guess that’s just my body’s way of taking over and telling me to get more sleep. I’ll take that advice tonight!
FLUSH.
These articles give me the shivers…
Washington Post: Payoff is sweet
NPR: A win for Mason and commuter schools
Bay Area Sports: the santa clara connection
The DCist: Mason Students get leniency on attendance (with picture of Andy and the banner!)
CBS Sportsline: Don’t pick against the Patriots
SF Gate: UNPRECIDENTED (with good pictures)
Mercury News: Cinderellas don’t do this
The Connection: For the Mason Fan
Washington Times: Evans Happy for GMU Success (an older article, I wonder what he thinks now!)
AND THERE’S 1800 MORE… I’m so excited!!!!!!
There’s no way I can explain what this means to me, I’ve had permanent goose bumps all morning. This is the coolest most awesome thing that has ever happened to Fairfax. GMU in the Final Four. That doesn’t even make sense? I mean beating UNC was a huge upset and now this??? Sportcenter was all Mason all the time this morning. The Junkies talked the whole time about Mason; they had an interview with coach Larranaga for like 25 minutes! We are making history right now. I keep thinking it will end with the next moment but it never does. These guys are so calm under pressure! They face down the biggest teams in the nation and win!
When I was watching the post game press conferences I’m glad Coach L mentioned one guy, George Evans. George Evans was the leader of our basketball team when I started there in 99. He joined the Navy at 17 and spent a few years in the service before deciding to go to mason. He played with some of these guys his senior year here when he was like 27 (at least). Coach L said that he left his mark on the team and I believe it. These guys listen to the coach like he’s their drill sergeant. But they also know that you only have one shot at something like this and they’re enjoying every minute of it… and so am I!
Watch out Florida, Here comes GMU!
