Going now to get ready for our SS class Christmas, so I can watch the game with no interruptions.

GO CATS!!!

Breakfast and lunch actually. Had nightmares about Lonzo Ball's fugly shot last night and didn't get a good rest.

Sitting here watching the kids' programming that is suited for this time of day. I'm sure Hanna's zoo animals are doing something on one channel and the Power Rangers will be on another. Perfect time of day for a rousing sporting event.

This is going to be a great game!!
A lot of titles on the court today!

UCLA hasn't played a game away from California. Different animal today. If we play the way we have been then we are tough to beat.

Radio show talking about the crowd being loud and proud already. Hope we run and run them all game both ends. Did not realize they only play 6 guys really.

Only thing is those six can really play.

A lot of NBA talent on the court today. You hope that our guys want to prove something...but not so much that they press.

The talk this week has been all Lonzo Ball individually. You know that ticks Fox and Briscoe off. I hope they play with a controlled anger.

UCLA has not had anyone so far put half court pressure on them like we do. I hope our guards make them extremely uncomfortable all day long. Hope we guard the pick and pop better than last year as well.

I think what it will take is likely some kind of Crispin brothers type of show from Alford, Ball, and Hamilton.

Some of the highlights I've seen have those guys hitting shots with guys right in their face. Alford in particular is tough as soon as he comes over the hash.

If UCLA can't hit tough shots then we could win by 20+. But if they do then this will be in doubt all the way to the end.

This lady who hosts this weird show on CBS right now is attractive. I've already made a comment and I'm in trouble with my wife.

Good start.
