The Good, the Bad & the Ugly: Temple Men’s Basketball vs. St. Bona

The Good: Another home win in double-digits behind an NBA like performance  of LaVay Allen, 20 points and  18 rebounds.   The highlight of was an amazing give and go from Dionte Christmas to Semaj Inge back to Dionta to Lavoy for a slam dunk, all with volleyball type passing.

The Bad: Overall sloppy play with some really weak passing at times.  Sloppy play like that against the A-10 elite will make for quick exit from the A-10 tournament and an NIT berth.

The Ugly: The National Anthem.  Yes, the anthem was ugle.  Time for me to rant.  Why do people singing the National Anthem feel the need to embelesh?  Holding and vibrating notes that make them feel like a squeeling pig.  This has been ever since Whitney Houston sung to Anthem in the Super Bowl all those years ago.  To all you Anthem singers out there, you ARE NOT Whitney Houston.  In fact Whitney Houston isn’t Whitney Houston anymore more.

My quess is that the person singing today’s Anthem doesn’t even know how many versus there are in the Anthem.  I think this should be a test that one has to take  in addition to being able to sing.  You must know how many versus in there are in the Anthem.  For those who don’t know, the answer is four!
