The Bridge is a reference to the old bar in the Union, now a
Starbucks. Also, there was a bridge that was never finished that
was supposed to connect the Union to the Library, I think.
I actually like the Den or the wolf den.

It was called The Bridge to Nowhere and as you said, was
supposed to link the library to the student union. Funds ran out
and the bridge ended before reaching the student union. It
became sort of a public joke after a while...a testament to
SUNY's tough times in the 70s.

Ha, great line. "Few mourned its demolition in 2003."
Maybe The Den is the leader in the clubhouse at this point?
Brainstorm some more.
The Snout? The Mouth? The Jaws? I kind of like the Snout
actually.

The Bridge? LOL. We used to give the girls scores as they
walked under the Bridge, like figure skating or gymnastics marks
(9.5!, 6.8!). It was totally misogynist, but we were just
having a bit of fun. I even dated a 10 for about a week!
Thanks for reviving the memories!

Felt like a game SBU could have put away early and just never
did. Also felt like a game Warney could have gotten 30+ instead
of a rather quiet 20. Perhaps when he posts up with a smaller
guy on his back his teammates should work to throw him the ball
a few more times. Well, a win and move on. I think SBU will have
their hands full against UNH this weekend.

Missed the game but I see it got down to three past the midway
point in the second half. Big three the hard way by Warney after
that and UMBC never got any closer.
Big night from Sekunda. We're going to need more nights like
these next year.
Nice work from the stripe. If Warney can keep making teams pay
there, that's a huge plus.
