Good times!

Coming on the end of the week here and all is good. My classes look sharp, so it should be a good semester of teaching. Various non-teaching bits and pieces have clicked together over the past few days, so it looks like a good semester.

And ASU basketball has done it again - beating Cal 99-90 in double overtime to go 14-2 (4-0 in the Pac-10). Up next is Stanford (14-3, 3-2) who beat Arizona tonight to send the Wildcats to 11-6 (1-3). Could we even imagine that ASU would go to March Madness and Arizona end up in the NIT? Only time will tell.

Good times.

It is Homecoming here in Tempe and ASU (3-3) are playing the only team in the PAC-10 with a worse record than their own - the 0-7 Stanford Cardinal. This - and the next two ASU games - wont be televised and as I hate listening to football on the radio, I wont have much to say beyond end-of-game…
