Solid read.  Nice capping

Scoreboard I am looking at has this as a loss.  They scored like 25 points in the last 1:30 or so.

No worries, Wander.  Nobody wins them all.  We probably should have noticed that this is what we used to call a "LFYT", though....

No worries Holmey, some times we forget that this should be fun and a big part of that is good good people and good banter

That is true.  The best days of the L Thread involved a lot of positive discussions and a lot of support for each other.  If everyone can post good $$$$ PLAYS, then everyone benefits in the end.  Thread is right at .500 so far, but that's how it has always started until people hone in on how to differentiate between a "Good Play" and a "SSSS-worthy Play".  Hopefully, it starts to happen over here too.  If it doesn't, no big deal.  I can go back into hibernation lol

Pssssst, Holmey,

Bold, red     =   Red ink, i.e., losing money.

Bold, green  =  Winning units, i.e., mak'n money!

Sheesh, I hit send prematurely.

Anyway, let's not count out Washing just yet.

If they can turn things around and finish the half within, say, 5 points or closer, or even leading the half, we'd be in good shape.

Anything 5 pts or closer at the close of the half.

Oh well. Sorry guys.  Andrew Andrews is purposely throwing this game.  Pac-12 leading scorer has 0 FG's and more turnovers than points.  Hopefully we can get it back tomorrow.  Best of luck everyone.
