Coach Mike Anderson took the Missouri coaching job over the weekend, taking with him “The Fastest 40 Minutes in Basketball” and 4 years of 20+ wins per season from UAB.

ydant is giving me a taste of something different for St. Paddy’s day this year. Forbidden fruit if you will… Forbidden on two fonts, first the size (it’s a whole 6 oz too big for Alabama consumers) and secondly the alcohol content (somewhere in the low 10’s if I remember correctly).
(Hopefully those free the hops guys can do something about that)
I’ve been told that I may need a knife and a fork to consume this beer, so I guess an empty stomach is called for…
It may have to wait until a later date as our neighbor “across the alley” is having a gathering of sorts, and knowing her occupation (senior writer for Southern Living magazine), the food is sure to be spectacular…
Happy St. Paddy’s day everyone!
Now LET’S GET PISSED!!!

Blazer Blog
Coach Zimmerman has a great blog over on AL.com that really gives you an inside look at what coaching on this level involves.
I always love seeing Coach Z on TV or at the games, you can tell by the expressions on his face and the attitude that he takes with the players (and they take with him) that he *really* enjoys his job, and the players really enjoy him being their coach.
Wildcat, it’s what’s for dinner!
GO BLAZERS!

I <3 the Bart
Bartow Arena was a madhouse of Green & Gold last night as the Blazers (21-5, 12-2) exacted revenge on the #3 ranked Memphis Tigers (26-3, 12-1). Memphis was ready for UAB, but they weren’t ready for the Bart.
I have never experienced as much excitement, pride, and school spirit at *any* sporting event in my life. More than the iron bowl that I attended in 2004, more than the C-USA basketball tournament in 2002 when the Blazers faced Louisville in the finals on their home court, even more than the quadruple overtime then shoot-out ending of the first ever game of the last iteration of the Birmingham Bulls hockey team when I was like 12 (and everything *seems* better when you experience it at a young age).
I’m still geeked up over the win!
Now, it’s Marshall on Saturday to close out the regular season, and then the C-USA tourney in Memphis at their home-court, Fed-Ex forum, starting Wednesday. We’ll have a first round bye, and likely be in the same bracket with UTEP. If everything goes as planned, we’ll face Memphis again in the conference finals. The Tigers will be ready, and we’ll have to contend with their home court for the second time this season…
