A much-deserved night off on Monday in the Big East as we step into December with two games:

#8 Villanova at St Joseph’s, 7pm.
UM-Eastern Shore at Georgetown, 7pm.

Big-5 matchup in Phila at historic Hagan Arena.
Georgetown hosts UMES in hopefully an easy matchup.

You might be confusing Hagen it's the historic Palestrina. Hagen is the on campus gym for saint joes. Recently renovated and I don't think people consider it to be too much of a historical gym. The palaestra is the upenn gym that seats about 10k where ,any of the big 5 games used to be played, nicknamed the cathedral of college basketball.

Right, the Palestra is the cathedral along with Hinkle. I thought the St Joe's gym was pretty old too... on TV I think it looks a lot like Rose Hill at Fordham. Someday I'd like to go to all of those.

Here we have William Tecumseh Sherman in the form of Villanova.

Here we have Georgia in the form of St. Joe's.

The only good thing about this for St. Joe's is that Hagan isn't 50 miles wide.

But I have to think that since they are in the top 5 in defensive efficiency that they'll win yet another game by double digits, even if their shots don't fall as we've come to expect.


Fixed... :D

You can't.

CBS Sports Sucks!! I know this isn't a big deal to people who only watch the Big East, but for those of us who love all kinds of hoops this is particularly frustrating. If you have DirecTV, you can stream a good deal of the channels with the DirecTV app, but not CBS Sports. I think the Time Warner app allows it, but only if you have Time Warner, and only if you subscribe to that network. It's ridiculous. CBS's main network can stream. CBS Sports offers streaming for other Olympic sports through the school website such soccer, softball, baseball, and volleyball. But, anything that's actually on the CBS Sports channel cannot be streamed, not even though most cable/satellite provider apps. They simply choose not to do it.

I say we take to Twitter and bomb the hell out of CBS Sports!! Everyone tweet at them and sway we want a streaming app!!!!
