Bad Joke

Filed under: Uncategorized — Chas @ 10:27 am

Just seeing if there was anything else on Pitt out there at the moment, when I cam across this press release regarding the Mountain Dew College Slam Dunk and Three-Point Championships:

Expected to compete in the men’s three-point shootout are Pittsburgh’s Julius Page, Gonzaga’s Blake Stepp, Stanford’s Matt Lottich, and Texas’ Brandon Mouton.

Needless to say, I sputtered out my coffee. Julius Page with a .329 3-point shooting average this year? How could a Purdue press release be pulling such a bad April Fools joke on us. Well, the Pitt Athletic department press release lists Page as participating in the Dunk portion.

Don’t think I’m going to watch it, I find them rather dull, but it airs tonight on ESPN, and then several more times:

Thursday, April 1 — 9:00-11:00 p.m. EST
Friday, April 2 — 3:00-5:00 p.m. EST
Saturday, April 3 — 1:00-3:00 p.m. EST
Sunday, April 4 — 1:30-3:30 a.m. EST
Wednesday, April 7 — 3:00-5:00 a.m. EST

For Lee’s benefit, I note that one of the judges is his favorite basketball coach, Bob Huggins.

A check at a couple other school sites confirms Page in the Dunk portion.
