The two clowns calling the game were so full of themselves about the venue
it was making me nauseous!  And they were also talking almost totally about
Wisconsin and how good they are, missing the entire Cinderella storyline
about RIT.  They even called RIT "Rochester Institute".  GAH!!!

So, I remembered that Chris Lerch said his call of the game would be online
and I went and found it and got to listen to the RIT broadcasters call the
game.  Much more refreshing!

Chris and Scott Biggar and a couple of other RIT guys did a great job.

I was sorry to see RIT get steamrolled by the Badgers, and ditto for Miami
and BC. Closer games are much more fun to watch.

For those of you who were in attendance, be sure to write to the NC$$ and
express your displeasure at the travesty they created just in the name of
the almighty dollar.  A pox on them for doing it.

Hoping for a closer game Saturday night.
