Day 6 of March: Our First Onions

Anyone who has ever watched college basketball knows that the greatest honor a player can ever receive is to make Bill Raftery scream "Onions!". For Demonte Harper and Morehead St, to have it called on a game winning upset of an instate power, it doesn't get any better than that. The Eagles were led by current Denver Nugget Kenneth Faried and guard Terrance Hill who was 5-6 from three, but coach Donnie Tyndall had a dream in which Harper won the game, and he stuck with his gut. Of course it worked out, and when Faried blocked the shot at the buzzer, it was the Cardinals hopping on the next flight back to Kentucky. I'd also like to point out that this was part of the 12:00 slate of games, along with Juan Fernandez's game winner to help Temple beat Penn State. This means that the idiots who went to class that day missed two fantastic finishes. I cannot stress this enough: Going to class or work is not worth skipping any basketball, regardless of what games are on. I have great memories of both games that afternoon, but do you really think I would've remembered what we talked about in Physics anyway? You gotta be able to prioritize, its a basic life skill. See you back here tomorrow as we take a trip to Dunk City for day seven.
