Are they in? EMADUB let us know. I feel like we have been chased to a cliff in Nazareth. Only without knowing the results, we have yet to find out if we are going to be thrown from the cliff or able to slip away, as Jesus did.
Jesus, Lazarus, that dead girl, this thread, MCC Mens hoops.
What is the greatest common factor? They were all dead at one point but then WERE RAISED TO LIFE BY A MIRACLE!!!!! As I watched the seconds click off and the Grace Royals rush the court pumping their jerseys towards the student section, a deep sadness entered my heart. Not because our valiant effort at coming back came to a screeching halt, but because my beloved crusaders season looked like it had written its last chapter for the 2012-13 season. But after I made my post on here that night, I decided to check twitter one last time. That is when the rumblings started to happen. The men’s hoops team were being congratulated on making Nationals by their fellow brother and sisters. Nationals???? EMADUB thought this was blasphemy, but in order to fall asleep, I had faith that this could be true.
The next day, as Chi Cat called was no day of rest for this Crusader lover. I investigated and would not believe a single word until the Paul’s Tent Making “We make dang good Tents” NCCAA Division Two Selection Show podcast. Well the podcast was as real as Jesus’ marriage certificate and I was aggravated that I forgot that CCSN was not doing podcasts. So when our athletic feed said that we got an at large, I became as excited as that one time David danced in the streets naked. I was so excited I forgot to post something on here/think of something creative to put. I thank everyone for the complements on my posts but you guys are the true winners because it does not take you 36 hours to come up with great posts. Seriously you all have an amazing gift at BBSing that I wish to one day receive.
So just as my favorite book of the Bible, James extends to 5 chapters, this thread looks like it is also going to be five pages as I will now get to enlighten this board on the Crusader’s journey towards a Division II non-Scholarship National Championship. So be prepared to learn about our opponent and maybe I can get some interviews with the players.
Wanna know something funnier than SNL’s skit of Tim Tebow? We got an 8 seed. AN 8 SEED!!!! That means we were the second best at large. Wanna know which school got the ten seed? Grace…hahaha we just got beat by them and we got them by two seeds…they must have prayed wrong or used the wrong translation of the Word in the Selection Meeting . Coming in at #11as the last team in…Ozark…they must feel like Mathias, who was the disciple that was chosen to replace Judas...
O and we are facing a team that comes from the west coast and put up 144 points one time. So this game is going to have more points than Methuselah’s candles on his last birthday’s unleavened cake.
