We’ve been talking about…

We secretly replaced this post game with an Gmail exchange. Let's see if anyone notices.

Yeah so J Felt and I were too depressed to post game.  Writing about the team you love losing is painful.  We leave it to the people who get paid by the period to do the post mortem some times so we can spend a few hours days in the fetal position.  So today [...]

Niners assume the position, ask if they can have another.

The scene with 5 minutes left in the game.

Waking up this morning and reading about last night’s game was like stabbing yourself in the eye with a fork. Why bother? It’s games like last night’s (and ODU, Duke, Tennessee) where one wonders if we’re truly for real. Once things got tough in [...]

Niners head to the Bronx looking to dehorn the Rams.

Personally I think it's been dead for a few…. years.

While there’s a Nor’easter in full effect in the Mid Atlantic there’s a different kind of warning being posted for Niners fans:

MONSTRA ALERT!  MONSTRA ALERT!

Niners scheduled to play horrific, craptastic team in the next 24 hours.  Expect periods of ineptitude approaching [...]

Derrio erupts for 34 points as Niners dispatch Minutemen 72-58.

The Niners were all smiles as Derrio Green lit UMass up with 34 points.

Derrio Green week in the Atlantic 10 came to a close with a 34 point peformance as the Niners defeated UMass at the Mullins Center 72-58.  The win puts the Niners back in a three way tie (6-1) with [...]

Charlotte takes to the road to face Musketeers

After a hard-fought win over St. Bonaventure, and in hindsight, a not-so-surprising player defection, the 11-4 Charlotte 49ers head to Cincinnati to face the Xavier (pronounced Eggs-savier) Musketeers.  Xavier enters the game 10-5 (2-0) with a pair of road wins in A-10 play to open their conference slate.  Most recently the Musketeers bested much-improved [...]

Halfway Point - Where do we stand?

Please hold the Bon Jovi references to the comments section.

With Saturday’s win over Saint Bonaventure we’ve not only matched our win total from last season, but we also crossed the mid point for our regular season. At 11 wins last year, we were in February. At 11 wins this year, we’re just starting [...]

Charlotte hosts Georgia Tech, look to swat Yellow Jackets.

Niners look to take the sting out of the Yellow Jackets.

We wish we could pretend this is just another non-conference home again versus a team playing in a world where conference affiliation doesn’t matter.  But it does.  Saturday 20th ranked Georgia Tech swarms into Halton Arena (7 PM start time, VERY few [...]

Bobby gets new bear rug, Charlotte defeats Mercer 91-80

Was anyone else bored last night? Watching the game, it seems that score could have been 70-59 at the end considering the lack of excitement on the floor, in the crowd, etc. Even the Golddusters seemed bored as they gyrated all over the logo at center court. It might have been the most boring [...]

Charlotte @ Old Dominion - Game #11

The Niners hope to slay the Monarchs Wednesday night.

The Niners take their 9-1 record and best start since ’91-’92 up to Hampton Roads to face the Old Dominion Monarchs Wednesday night.   It is a matchup that pits one of the best scoring offenses in the country versus one of the stingiest defenses.  [...]

The Juniors - 8 Game Review

He's back.

We can hear you now.

We’re seven and one, how can you not just give out As and call it a day? Seven and ONE, did anyone think that was possible?

Well, the Freshmen and the Sophomores have already been covered, so we can’t just stop there. Plus, this author really [...]
