Natural Healing In Spokane
March 25, 2008

If you’re wandering the downtown streets in Spokane, Washington this weekend looking for something to do, you’ve come to the right blog located about 3,000 miles away from the event.
At Mirabeau Point Park, the annual Holistic festival will provide information for organic and natural remedies. Naturally, a potpourri of books, crystals, art and other [...]

Semifinal Saturday
March 15, 2008

Catching up with the ACC Tourney, Duke and Clemson easily advanced to meet in the second semifinal of the day later in Charlotte.
Just in case you haven’t been watching basketball this year, it looks like Tyler Hansbrough might be the best player in the country. Grabbing a rebound off of a horrific attempt to win [...]

ACC Notes – Virginia Tech/Miami
March 14, 2008

So, that was a backbreaking run that the Hokies used in the second half, huh? Crashing the boards at a 2:1 ratio, Virginia Tech shows they belong in the ACC Semifinals and the NCAA Tournament with an emphatic win this afternoon over Miami. The Hurricanes, for a second straight game, couldn’t shoot straight. Finishing at [...]

ACC Notes – North Carolina/Florida State
March 14, 2008

It looks like North Carolina head coach Roy Williams was a little unhappy with the officiating this afternoon in the quarterfinal matchup against Florida State. Using the last minute of the game as a teaching tool towards the refs, Williams got into a verbal argument with the official as both teams played out the remainder [...]

Maryland/Boston College (Final)
March 14, 2008

If you read my last entry, you can probably tell that I am in no way surprised that Maryland blew a huge lead in the first round of the ACC Tournament to a weak Boston College team that posted a putrid conference record in the regular season. Maryland’s excessive turnover ratio that hampered them for [...]

ACC Notes – Maryland/Boston College (Take One)
March 14, 2008

Whenever a team shoots 50% from the field and from 3-point range, you usually expect that team to run away and hide in a basketball game. Then again, we are talking about the Terps. Landon Milbourne picked up three fouls in the first half while Greivis Vasquez continues to literally throw away the game with [...]

ACC Notes – Virginia/Georgia Tech
March 14, 2008

The best game of the evening lived up to its billing…for about 30 minutes. Moving at breakneck speed in the first half, both Georgia Tech and Virginia exchanged the lead an eye popping 14 times. In a half! That’s flat out incredible. Tech took over in the second half with an avalanche of three point [...]

ACC Notes – Wrapping Up The Afternoon Session
March 13, 2008

4:01 PM – Somebody wake me up when this one is over. Here’s a few box score goodies as we tick down to a potential Miami win. N.C. State is 0-10 from 3-point range. They are shooting 29% from the field. They only have five team offensive rebounds and the Wolfpack have a total of [...]

ACC Notes – N.C. State/Miami
March 13, 2008

2:36 PM – As we settle in for the second game of the afternoon, I’m still amazed that Wake Forest came out flat against Florida State. Shooting 19% from 3-point range, the Deacons followed the same script all season long – they can’t get inside and score and fall in love with the 3-point shot. [...]

ACC Notes – Wake Forest/Florida State
March 13, 2008

  
12:40 PM -It’s nice to see that former Wake Forest guard Muggsy Bogues visited the ACC gift shop at the Charlotte Bobcats Arena. Sporting an ACC Tournament polo shirt and Wake Forest hat, Bogues wasn’t exactly thrilled for the combination of an early tip-off and a Demon Deacon deficit at halftime. 
 
1:31 PM – With [...]
