I for one am glad they executed Barbaro; the guy’s auto-biography was the worst thing I’ve ever read ‘ all he kept talking about was eating hay and how much he loved Tobey Maguire. And when I called him for an interview, I’m pretty sure he called me a ‘Naaaay,’ whatever that is.
No word yet on whether Tank Johnson or any of the Cincinnati Bengals were involved in Barbaro’s murder.
But there’s no use beating a dead horse.
In Binghamton news, Mike Gordon has big plans for a follow-up against Albany this weekend. Scouts from the Harlem Globetrotters were at the Events Center Wednesday, and apparently will attempt to sign Gordon after he steals the ref’s toupee, bounces the ball off his head and kicks it through the basket from halfcourt for the win tomorrow.
In the event that Stony Brook and Binghamton should meet again in the AE tournament, Seawolves coach Steve Pikiel is ready. Apparently all the players will be required to wear their jerseys backwards to make sure Mike Gordon doesn’t try any funny business.
And I’m going to hand the rest of this column over to senior guard Steve Proctor and his press room comments after the game:
On not watching the last play: ‘I closed my eyes so I couldn’t see if he was making the basket.’
On the final inbounds shot: ‘Mike’s play was scaaaaaaaaary.’
On his role: ‘The play was supposed to come to me, but I ain’t gonna say nothing to nobody.’
On the ensuing madness: ‘Ball went in, red light went off ‘ refs ran off the court and I was happy. I was like, ‘We ain’t got no instant replay at this school!!!’
On the clock management: ‘I think the clock guy was distracted or something.’
