Founded: Fuck if I know.
Location: Your guess is as good as mine.
Enrollment: Can't be that many...20?
Famous Alum: *Shrugs*
Conference: Uhhhh, Colonial?
Head Coach: OH! I KNOW THIS...It's um, ah, what's his name? Pretty sure I heard it on TV or saw it on Twitter during the Missouri game. I wanna say, Frank? No, I'm thinking of Frank Haith. I really wasn't paying attention. I was playing Draw Something with a friend. Goddamn that game's addicting. I actually just started playing yesterday. My coworkers got me hooked. We spent the entire day playing. Did not get a single thing done at work. I frequently like to draw RoboCop in hopes that if I ever get the chance to draw him, I'll nail it because of all the practice I put in. I'm willing to piss off my friends and even lose a few, but when the day comes that Draw Something asks me to sketch the Silver Knight of Detroit, everyone will understand that it was all worth it when they gaze upon the glorious work of art in the palm of their hand. Anywhoozers, what was I talking about? I don't know. Fuck it. I forget.
Season Record: Let's see, they're a 15 seed, so I'm gonna say something like 19-12. That's usually a typical 15 seed record, right?
Strengths: Being completely unknown. Convincing people they exist. Ruining people's precious fucking brackets.
Weaknesses: Lying to people that Norfolk is an actual state.
Player To Watch: Who cares?
Fun Fact: I know nothing about Norfolk State and I wish for it to remain that way forever. IGNORANCE IS POWER!
(laughing) OK--I'm in...Now, let's see if we can find the humor in the coming FOOTBALL season. We sure could have used it last year! Truth is, the better our team gets, the more serious we tend to become about it all.
ReplyDeleteFace it--we'd all pretty well written off this B-ball season, with the Yeguette injury and the way they faded at the end there--and getting the "irrelevancy shaft" from the Media Suck-Ups, uh, I mean the NCAA Selection Committee didn't seem to help either...but a blow-out win and a Missouri-swoon/Norfolk St. surprise (choose one) and we're suddenly resuscitated.
Still plenty of room to stumble/bumble/fumble our "lucky break" away, though--I could still laugh it off, at this point, shrug and turn my attention completely to Spring Practice, but if they DO seize it and move on, suddenly it's the "Sweet 16" and all the hype and everyone forgets how ready we seemed to go down quietly.
NEVER that way with football, though, right? Tends to get intense either way. I'd like to find a way to better enjoy our (football) success this time around, I gotta say. Who's with me?
