Lost to Temple last night. Lost to Mass, and barely beat Fordham. And only 6-4 in the Atlantic 10. They’re still 20-5 over-all, but uh-ohs… PC is miserable. But Brown’s second in the Ivies, and within striking distance. Are they the dark-horse RI candidate to make the tourney? Also, what’s with Cornell leading at 6-0, …
Kinda takes the sting out of the loss when you’ve got this gal icing your aching joints. [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHWidOmv4hQ] (Just a little something for the late-night crowd.)
Projo goes loopy again. Thankfully, everybody says that in fact, no, praying won’t make the Patriots win. But that don’t mean the question doesn’t warrant a front page story: As the New England Patriots face the New York Giants in tomorrow’s Super Bowl, countless fans will, no doubt, seek divine help for their teams. But …
Tom Brady may really love goats, but Jack Groh might be the most important participant in this weekend’s festivities. Groh is the NFL’s environmental czar and it is his job to minimize the Super Bowl’s carbon foot print. His goal is to make the event carbon neutral. But as numerous people point out, buying offsets …
Looks like they’re inching back towards a top-25 spot: The Rams improved to 18-3 (4-2 A-10), equaling their best start since the 1987-88 season when they went 18-3 through their first 21 games. ESPN is hosting an online chat with URI’s guard Parfait Bitee today at 1pm.
Could Providence support a Major League Baseball team?
We should all take a field trip to South Kingstown for a game one of these days. Jimmy Baron finished with 17 points and Parfait Bitee added 14 points and seven assists to lead Rhode Island past George Washington 81-70 on Wednesday night.
The Wild Colonial South Water Street Doors open early today — 2:30 PM — for the Patriots/Chargers game, followed immediately by the Giants/Packers contest. Watch the games on a color television set!
The greater Providence area was one of the early soccer hotbeds in the US. There’s an ongoing conversation over on Urban Planet about the possibility of bringing a pro team back to Rhode Island. Apparently there’s a group of investors who are pretty serious about the idea.
The Rams fall to A-10 rival Dayton, 92-83.
Just moved up in the rankings and beat Farleigh Dickinson. And this one’s from the AP: No. 23 Rhode Island (14-1) is off to the program’s best start since 1946-47 heading into conference play at 20th-ranked Dayton on Wednesday. The Rams cracked the national rankings for the first time since November 1998, and could climb …
Besting Georgia Southern tonight, 85-80.
I did it! Patriots/Giants Game on Channel 10! The NFL Network has seen the writing on the wall. An agreement has been reached, and the final game of the regular season will be carried over-the-air on NBC Channel 10. Once they saw that the Dose was on their case they totally caved. (There will be …
Blindly following the crowd, I’ve decided that I’m foremost an Atlantic 10 fan this year, for the first time since the 7-foot-1 Yinka Dare — who sadly died of a heart attack a few years ago — wowed the crowds at George Washington’s Smith Center in the early 1990s. (I think Dare’s what first turned …
With Oregon and Xavier losing this week, it’s lookin like there’s a damn good chance the URI men’s basketball team will make the ESPN/USA Today top 25 today for the first time in, like, a while. (Not sure how long exactly, but no NCAA tourney since 1999.) The 11-1 Rams have already beaten four teams …
Patriots to Providence — “Drop Dead” Cox Cable customers received a notice today that the final game of the regular season, December 29th/Patriots at Giants, will only be available in this area on the NFL Network, and for that you have to buy an extra sports bundle.
