My goodness…talk about team coverage! With Dave at his in-laws in Greensboro and Stillman in Fayetteville, we’ve got not one, not three, but two different views from the couch. Dueling views, you might call it. All of Stillman’s thoughts will be in blue, while Dave’s thoughts will be in green.

1:36 – Not really sure how Sugarland and the lovely Jennifer Nettles got chosen to be the official opening music for the ACC Tournament, but I’m ok with it. More than ok with it. I’m a Jennifer Nettles fan, I am. But her aesthetic appeal notwithstanding, allow me to reiterate that I’m utterly perplexed as to how Sugarland was chosen for this task.

1:38 – Friend-of-the-site Geoffrey has arrived exactly six seconds before tip-off. And he’s sporting his Carolina blue Dublin Gaelic futbol jersey…complete with a map of Ireland on the back. Superstition won’t allow him to wear Carolina shirts during road games.

1:42 – Boy is Roy Williams upset about that out of bounds call. Either that or he’s frustrated with his choice of tie. Could be both.

1:43 – Jared Dudley just broke his nose on Tyler’s mask. Lethal weapon, that mask is. Tyler will certainly take it off by halftime. Geoff just called him “Scuba Steve” because he looks like a snorkeler. I wouldn’t call him that to his face.

1:44 – Bothersome mask or not, Tyler is playing like the proverbial man possessed. Once he hits the big time, I think he can work an endorsement deal out of all of this. Can’t you see him doing a TV commercial for these folks?

1:51 – I don’t know if it’s the Raycom/LFN microphones or the acoustics of the St. Pete Times Forum, but you sure can hear a lot of what the players and coaches are saying.

1:55 – Is there a worse commercial than the two people in the library talking about how great the ACC is? I submit to you that there is not.

2:03 – Even if (heaven forbid) they come back from down 12 early and win this game, is Boston College really the fourth best team in this conference? Really?

2:10 – ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Seriously, are you kidding? Reyshawn just went up for a layup on a fast break; he got kicked in the groin by Jared Dudley, poked in the eye by Sean Marshall, shot in the back with an assault rifle by John Oates, and then Al Skinner ran out on the court and bit him in the calf, leaving an imprint of those lovely teeth in Rey’s leg. No foul was called.

2:12 – Geoff wants to know if it’s proper to button the top button of your polo when you’re wearing it under a jacket, a la Al Skinner’s attire today. Truthfully, I’m not even sure it’s proper to wear a polo under a jacket.

2:21 – It’s always fun to hear somebody (for instance, Jared Dudley) say “and one” on his way up to shoot, and not only not make the shot, but also not get fouled.

2:24 – Boston College has had at least two players argue every foul called against them today. Sometimes five. But at least two.

2:27 – My analysis of the first half: We are killing them, Roy is the greatest coach ever, and we may never lose again. Ever. And just in the knick of time, there’s the ACC commercial with the two people in the library to kill my buzz.

2:43 – I don’t understand America’s infatuation with Chuck Norris. I also don’t understand the new Chuck Norris’ head on an ostrich commercial.

2:51 – Jared Dudley just thwacked Tyler in the nose guard. Between the constant running of his mouth, the dirty fouls, the continued whining to the refs, and the incessant flopping, he’s easily one my least favorite ACC players of all time.

2:51 – Geoff and I have decided to root for the Wolfpack in semi-final number two because we still refuse to accept BC, VT, and Miami as members of the ACC.

3:07 – I would have voted for Al Thornton for player of the year 37 times before I voted for Jared Dudley. Of course, neither one of them played particularly well against the Heels this weekend.

3:08 – Dudley with another shameless shove of Reyshawn. At least he got called for it.

3:12 – Geoff and I were just noticing how Eric Montross has a rather large nose, yet it’s fairly well proportioned with the rest of his body. We’re assuming that if Stillman was about ten inches taller his nose might look normal, though that’s probably still a stretch.

3:14 – Tyler should just go ahead and wear full body armor for the rest of his college career. Poor guy.

3:20 – Text message from Benji: “I saw Henderson, Zoubek, Scheyer, and McClure at South Point last night. I think K told them not to let Henderson go anywhere by himself anymore. I heard Zoubek use the Lord’s name in vain. I wanted to be like ‘Don’t you guys have a game tonight? Oh right.”

3:29 – I think Brandan Wright is invisible. That’s the only way to explain why Boston College absolutely refuses to defend him. And now, up 15 with a minute to go, the subs are sitting in front of the scorer’s table. We actually took a shot clock violation to get them in the game. Roy absolutely will not waste a time out. Won’t do it.

3:31 – Always nice to see Dewey and Co. get in the game in the ACC semifinals. That’s a good sign. Some might even call it peaking at the right time.
