Though the Hoyas are sitting as 13.5 point favorites against 'Nova, there are a lot of question marks about this team as we make the ... http://www.hoyaparanoia.com/2008/02/11/monday-morning-1030-am-hoya-buzz/ Well, I guess we played half a game of basketball Saturday night - but wow, did we look terrible in the second half. The minute Louisville started playing tight defense, we stopped being competitive. We couldn't get the ball down low to Roy, we started taking bad shots, ... http://www.hoyaparanoia.com/2008/02/10/louisville-slugged/ Sure, we are halfway through the 2008 season, but that doesn't mean we should wait 9 months to launch! This site started as a joke - a bunch of my fellow Georgetown alumns and I were sitting around and astonished that this url was available.
