Game 19: Saint Louis University, Thursday, Jan 29th, 7 PM, CSN Mid Atlantic, SNY

[GMUSSTN]

A quarter of the nation could watch this game if they wanted to with as many channels as it is on.

I cannot imagine a world where someone who is not a Mason/STL fan or a paid reporter would watch this game for enjoyment.

kenpom.com rates it as the 42nd most worthwhile game to watch out of 60 that day.

I think it's only ranked that high because Kenpom accounts for the underground Billiken-play fetish community tuning in.

I'm Rob Loe, and I have DirecTV.

And I'm Paul Hewitt, and I have cable.

We have a winner! Somebody needs to make this sign for Thursday's game!

Instant classic.

They really rate TV games? Funny.

"Glad this game is on Thursday rather than tomorrow or Wednesday. Even though we fly charter all the time now, it still looks like this northeast winter storm will delay a lot of flights.

Regarding the actual game:

The computer can't account for Hewitt being an idiot. Mason might be the better team playing at home, but we'll most likely go on a 11-2 run to close the game and win."

Not to be picky but unless it's part of the gag to include a former Billiken who, if I remember correctly, broke our backs with some unexpected 3s, I think you mean to refer to Rob Lowe, the actor.

Yup. You missed the gag.

This should be in the "Hall of Fame" of posts.

KA,

The "Hall of Fame" post should be attributed to the SLU poster.

It was intentional. I kind of wish Rob Loe was still on the team, so the students could make a "Skinny Arms Rob Loe" cutout to wave during FTs.

Any sign using my joke will need to have a photo of Loe or at least his jersey number to prevent confusion exactly like this.

I thought it was....and yet was still deserving......

Boom! This works on multiple levels. Well done, friend.

While I wasn't completely oblivious to the connection, after giving it some thought, I erroneously attributed it to be a simple spelling mistake. Maybe the boards are beyond that sort of thing these days!

All games are rated, not just ones on TV.

4 1/2 point favorite according to Vegas Insider.

This one should be rated NC-17.
