Bill Raftery

Here's a healthy collection of Bill Raftery Nonsense (B.R.N.) from the three final four games:

"Let the traffic subside and drill it!"
"Let him take the collection on Sunday, reward that parish!"
"He'll put his arms around a city"
"Quick hitters"
"Quick slip"
"Nice little lock low"
"Knows how to curl with that derriere!"
"You've got to hug the screener"
"Carte blanche on the dribble drive"
"Frank rearranging the adam's apple"
"Pocket pass"
"Forcing Kentucky to make basketball plays"
"When he's in there, they use rubs"
"Dribble drive"
"You just welcome newcomers"
"Flex run"
"He knows how to put you in a suitcase"
"You don't need a dietician, just give him a taste. A morsel!"

Nicknames

The N.C. State softball team defeated Georgia Tech 10-0 Sunday afternoon in Atlanta, but that wasn't the main story. A fan sitting front row next to the Wolfpack dugout? He was the star of the show.











He had nicknames and phrases for many of the N.C. State players. Here's the full list:


Alyssa Compton - "A-C", "We believe A-C!", "Pretty work, A-C!"
Molly Hutchison - "Wood", "Molls"
Tyler Ross - "T-Ross", "Good talkin' T-Ross!", "Be the boss, T-Ross!"
Maggie Hawkins - "Mags", "Hawk", "That's the Hawk!", "Be a hawk!"
Emily Weiman - "Em", "Eat 'em up, Em!"
Renada Davis (jersey #25) - "Ray", "Ray-Ray", "Nada", "2-5 you a playa!"
Hannah Yeager - "Yoggs", "Yeager bombs"
Macauley Prickett - "Mac", "Smack"
Morgan Medford - "Smash"

Shouts to no one in particular

"Be a beast!"
"Keep faith!"
"Beastmode!"

Chris Webber

Mr. Webber, please share some of your insight from the Thursday games between Notre Dame/Wichita State and Kentucky/West Virginia...

"You stick with who brought you to the dance, you stick with that girl."

"You can't win a game in the first half. Just go into the locker room, put on your headphones, wash your hands, come back out."

(On West Virginia's BillyDee Williams) "Hopefully his game is as smooth as the actor"

"If you're lions, you don't worry about the complaints of a sheep"


Chris Webber Nonsense Update (C.W.N.U.) - 3/28 - Notre Dame vs. Kentucky

"You just can't all of a sudden find religion because you're in the Elite 8"


I guess my main question/concern would be: does anyone know what Chris Webber is talking about?
