More basketball and movies

It was raining all day Saturday so we decided to stay close to home.  We walked over to the Multiplex to see Glory Road a movie about the Texas Western basketball team who in 1966 won the NCAA tournament.  The starting five of Texas Western was all Black while their opponent, Kentucky, were all white.  When we went home we saw on television the second half of the Hofstra UNC-Wilmington game.  If the weather was decent, we would have driven out to Hempstead to see that game.  The game went into 3 overtime periods with Hofstra winning 92-87.  At 6:45 we went over to Queens College which is only 10 minutes away to see their basketball team beat the New York Institute of Technology 100-65.  This morning there was about an inch of icy snow on the ground.  We returned to the Multiplex to see Last Holiday starring Queen Latifah.  When we returned home we saw the last half of the Knick game.  The Toronto Raptors beat the Knicks 129-103.  More about the Knicks tomorrow.
