"we like it raw"

So being the terrific child that I am, I decided to get my dad the best b-day gift he has ever received. Now i know your thinking I bought dude a bottle of Jameson but no I got us tickets to the Wednesday games of the Big East tournament in New York City,  Madison Square Garden to be precise. That place is the most circular non-flowered square garden that I have ever been in, but I digress. We went on tuesday and spent the day getting all F'd up at some lame place watching the shitty Big East teams play, betting quarters on what player would score the next basket like me and Nick Cahill used to do at Ken West games before I took my wet jump shot to the varsity team and it was illegal for me to bet on my own games

On Wednesday we got up for the noon game which was DePaul vs. Providence. Holy shit that game sucked, physically I was there, but my mind was in a whole other world. Only sometimes did I show any emotion cuz my dad kept cracking me up with his Boston accent quoting Lenoardo DiCaprio's character in the Departed "You fellas come from Providence?...Fuckin delivering cannolis or something?" (ed. note-of course a deep search for this clip was searched for on the internets but no dice) 

The second game was Marquette vs. St. Johns. What do you know another whack ass game, at least the first one was close but this one St.johns had 10 points in the 1st half. Again I rarely showed emotion and it was when my Dad (he's such a bad ass) let out bored frustration hollering "Hey Johnnies this isnt the Big Ten!" After this game we went to some terrible bar and ate food and got like 57 girls digits. 

The 7 o'clock game featured Notre Dame vs. West Virginia. I wasn't extremely interested in this other then Notre Dame has a sweet shooting mick like myself in Kyle McAlarney. My dad was having a riot coming at people from West Virginia. He was also having a good time with Luke Harangody's defense, OR LACK THERE OF.

 After WVU won that contest we put our game faces, it was time for Syracuse vs Seton Hall and dammit if the Gillery's weren't ready then no-one was. We listened to our nation's beautiful anthem The first half had its ups and downs, we laughed, we cried, and were befuddled at times. The second half THINGS GOT HEATED. Of course the Gillerys were ready to throw down. I know the guy next to me in a orange SU hoodie who looked like Raekwon from the Wu Tang Clan was ready as well, of course I'm only guessing but he was grabbing his crotch and yelling "YEAH, WE LIKE IT RAW...WE LIKE IT RAW" After the scuffle Syracuse went on a run and beat down on the Pirates of Seton Hall. Every time cuse made a 3 pointer Raekwon would repeat "WE LIKE IT RAW" I had no choice but to agree.

With our adventure over I'm back in the homeland. I'll never forget the memories and all the fun things we did that we usually don't do at home, such as drink and watch basketball...

On behalf of my padre, my new friend bootleg Raekwon, and the rest of the Big East conference, The Day is Yours,
