March Sadness

Children have been born since then... and have no recollection of ODU being an NCAA team.

think about it.

But it makes me sad, I don't want to think about it

At 6, they typically have the recollection of a goldfish.

It was also on the NCAA Tournament promo for at least the next 2 years.

inane observation...it always seems (to me) Scooby is laughing at what you wrote :-/...(yes, I know he's supposed to be laughing at the CAA)...

I was at the AJ Gators in downtown Norfolk. Was with a group of like 10 students at the time. I didn't talk to anyone the rest of the day. DIdn't say bye to anyone, didn't say a word. Just sat in my bedroom all day.

It was a bad day.

Yeah, if CUSA doesn't get it together soon, I may have to change that.

Man you're really making us dig up some dark memories...

I was at Monarch Sports Grille. The place was packed (obviously) but I wasn't there for the food so I stood in the back. I will never forget the feeling of that day...

And then of course our smelly rivals up north elongated the suffering... 2011 was not the fondest NCAA Tourney in my mind

I was on the Monarch Maniac bus trip. We weren't allowed to stay for the Pitt game so the bus back was silent until Richmond.

And today... the battle of our NCAA nemisises.
Butler vs MTSU

I'm still rooting for MTSU

On this day seven years ago, we beat Notre Dame in New Orleans.

Meant to post in this thread yesterday, but 22 years ago in Albany on 3/17 there was one of my favorite memories! #14 seed ODU defeated #3 seed Villanova in triple OT!

42nd street was crazy that night, and it spilled into the bars on Hampton Blvd!

On this day in 1900: Japan uses its influence over Korea to deny Russia's efforts to obtain a naval station at Korean Port of Masampo, the lead up to the Russo-Japanese war


Japan hasn't won a game in the NCAA tournament in the past six years either. Think about it
