GCFB goes on field Trip

Hey they did sell some tickets

Well GCFB attended yesterdays Canisius West Virginia game with the friend of GCFB and the girlfriend of GCFB. She actually played basketball and could comment on the suckiness of Canisius actual play.

The Pep band is actually St Joes Kids

I was excited for this game and thought the Mountineers would absolutely stomp on the Griffs. They gave up 91 to Robert Morris, how many would they give up to a top 25 team? Well things turned out a bit closer then I thought. With Canisius only losing 77-54. Yes that looks like an Ugly score and it was an ugly game. West Virginia wasn't super impressive. They really should have came out there and just hammered on the Griffs. But were more then happy to let Frank Turner drive the lane and A) lose the ball or B) take a horrible shot. Then go down and let Joe Alexander take a nice jumper. The only person with only consistency was The Polish Rifle Pawel Malesa leading with 16 points. He only takes 3 point shots and is very good at them. The rest of the team is piss poor. Frank Turner can handle the ball, but isn't the best shot taker. Canisius even got called for Offensive Goaltending, which I think is the opposite of what you want to do.

Bob Huggins really didn't want to be there


The Polish Rifle is hard to catch on Camera

The basketball team wasn't even the worse thing Canisius put on the floor. Their dance team and cheerleaders are hard to put into words. I may have witnessed the worst dance routine man has ever seen. My girlfriend actually prevented me from politely clapping several times. It was bad. Oh and the Yellow shoes of Canisus, are awful. They must be seen in person.

Despite the horrible game, I had a fun time, due to the company I was in, and later watched that pretty good hockey game, between Philly and the Sabres. I'll say it again, Canisius should never play in HSBC, no one comes, its empty looking and Canisius fans aren't the rowdiest. It's not good for regular season games. Just tournament games.

The real star of the afternoon the scoreboard
