Thursday Anticipation: Special Hoops Edition

It's a bit of a slow week on the anticipation front. There's nothing on the immediate horizon. We have reason to believe a Nordic Cross calendar is on the way. But we're still waiting on an official word from the editor. The NC chapter has no cyclocross race to look forward to this weekend. It's all about turkey for the next four days. The NCCX season concludes next weekend in Salisbury, NC.

But loyal friends of the FGBC will know that from time to time our attention turns to from cycling to basketball, specifically of the college variety. The annual March Madness Pool is still many thrilling games away. But Jonah and I scored some tickets to see the Devils play in Cameron tomorrow afternoon. It's always a treat. Unfortunately, most of the Cameron Crazies will have gone home for Thanksgiving. But we still get to see the home team in action. Sweet. Let's go Duke!

Jonah had a nice nap in the first half. So did Duquesne. But he manage to figure out a few cheers in the second half. If these early non-conference games are a blowout, they're a big disappointment. But Duke won big and we had a good time. Just being in Cameron is itself an experience. SIngler is a stud.
