Not exactly news, but the game reminded you once again that English league football is a lot better than the Hellenic league.
The next Hellenic football news to watch for is the upcoming European Championships in Austria and Switzerland where Greece will defend her 2004 championship.
Of course, some ACC hoops news:
- Clemson lost tonight at Georgia Tech, but with 9 wins they are in. They host Virginia Tech this weekend; the winner will have 10 wins, but both the Tigers and the Hokies are in either way. That game is also huge in terms of seeding for the ACC tournament; the winner will finish third and get a bye, but the loser could tie with Miami who could finish fourth when their win over Duke is used as the tie breaker (best quality win).
- Maryland has a huge game at Virginia this weekend, but even if they win they need help in the ACC tournament.
- Miami is probably in with 8 wins after their comeback against BC Wednesday night. They could really breath easy if they take care of FSU in Tallahassee this weekend to finish with 9 wins. Other than the Carolina-Duke game the Canes at the Noles is probably the game of the weekend.
- Finally, in a mild upset as Vince Carter - with 5 votes or 35% - won our poll as the best Carolina dunker of all time. He edged the greatest basketball player of all time 5 to 4. I'm pretty sure I voted for David Noel solely on his dunk at Kentucky. Hard to pick against Carter, especially when you consider his dunk over a 7 footer in the Olympics - perhaps the greatest dunk of all time and his display at the slam dunk contest a few years ago.
- Kudos to brother and Baseball America editor John Manuel for planting the seed for our new poll on Tyler Hansbrough.
