those crazy 'cats

tonight the women's team did battle against the owls of william woods university. they won in fine form, putting all 13 players on display for the fans to enjoy. tomorrow night they travel to lincoln university while the men stay home to face evangel.

tonight's game was good. even better than the game, however, was the fan support. the men's team came out to support the women tonight in the absence of our student body. but of course, they didn't just come and sit in the stands and cheer. oh, no. that would make too much sense. these fools crashed the party with painted bodies, wigs and get-ups, and the most obnoxious cheers you have ever heard. (it shocks me that most of these guys are single... lol.) they were cheering, chanting, dancing, and yelling at every turn. these cool cats were entertaining for the other fans, and did wonders to lift the spirits of the girls. they even let me get in on the dancing. i showed them all up, of course.


the fans for tonight's game proved to me that quality is definately better than quantity. so thanks to the men's team for showing such spirited support of the women. that's just one more thing that makes me proud to be part of the sbu family: where else would you find quality people like these who make up a quality community like this?

baby it's COLD outside!!

i don't think i like this snow business. cold weather is not for me. too bad it's supposed to snow for the next day or two. and now there's nothing to distract me.
the bearcats had this week's games off, mostly because of finals. (is that better coach bonde? how's that for proofreading? geez, i'm just a bearcat. didn't know i had to be a rhodes scholar too.) i'm sure the players are all relieved to have those over with. i think it probably fried everyone's brains. that much studying can't be good for you. but now the semester is officially over! that means my 'cats and lady 'cats can concentrate on basketball for a while before they leave me here all alone for Christmas break. they have been working hard in practice, fried brains and all.
the ladies are home monday night against william woods, followed by the men's home game tuesday against evangel. then, thursday night the men and women host a double-header against arkansas- monticello. i'll be sure to keep you updated on what is going on here in bearcat country!

about that time...

Well, it's about that time again. the semester is nearly over, the leaves have all fallen, and the weather is turning COLD. That means basketball season is here and in full swing!

This cold and freezing rain is nasty, and it wreaks havoc on my usually shiny, sumptuous coat (ooh, good word. look that one up.). Luckily, I can take refuge in the gym and watch as my fellow Bearcats do battle on the court.

The sbu ladies are 4-1 while the men are 4-2, earning wins over some solid competition here and on the road. This weekend they take on the hawks from Quincy. It will be a good game, so you should be there to help me cheer them on. and everyone is supposed to wear black. dn't be the only one to miss the memo and look ridiculous. can't wait to see you there!
