Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Is that Syracuse on that commercial?


So I was watching the Big Bang Theory (don't judge) minding my own business, and all of a sudden there was a commercial for Wireless TV. Because they said the words "NCAA tournament" I looked up. And suddenly "IS THAT TERRENCE ROBERTS?" After a bit of pausing and rewinding, I confirmed that it was. And Hak as well. Then I realized that the opposing team was wearing green. Terrence Roberts... opposing team in green... NCAA tournament... And then, of course, I knew what game it was. After watching the video a few more times, I confirmed that the floor said "Worcester". What this means, I don't know. Maybe this is a really old commercial and everyone has already seen it. I don't know. But I was certainly surprised to see it.

So here's the video. I swore I'd never record anything my holding my camera at my TV but I just couldn't resist.

So I'm from Worcester MA

And I remember that when I was in high school there were some Tourney games played there. Sure enough I looked that up and found this:

It’s most likely footage from SU’s 2005 game against Vermont.

Sorry, I thought I’d made it clear in the post that that was my conclusion. Apparently not. Lol.

To young to understand

Didn’t follow any sports until I came to SU in 2006. So yeah… My bad.

I had finally forgotten. I HAD FINALLY FORGOTTEN. Now it’s all back. Agh, back to Dr. Goldblum…

What are you talking about? That game never happened. It was just a collective bad dream. Weirdest thing ever.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

I judge

But only because I’m a legit nerd and do not appreciate BBTs representation of nerd culture.

eh, I'm a nerd too

I think they do a better job than most shows of rounding out their nerd characters (except for Raj’s inability to talk to women – that was a terrible corner they painted themselves into).

"Thank you so much for bring up such a painful memory...

While you’re at it, why not give me a nice paper-cut & pour lemon juice on it"!??!!!

I was from New England, too

And did not make that mistake. You are not forgiven.

It's the most bullshit thing I've seen in thirty years.

That game predates my SU fandom

But I actually made quite a bit of money (for someone who was 14 or whatever at least) off of that game and the Bucknell/Kansas game.Two of my older cousins went to UVM that year and they try to rile me up about it, but I just can’t get that upset about it.

The list is getting weird. I think Mr. Keeley himself is actually on it at this point.
