Silent Tribute on Press Row

I was trying to keep my emotions in check while watching my N.C. Central Eagles get smacked down by Virginia Union Thursday night. I mean, as part of the media, it's in bad form to do the "ride-the-pony" dance after a rim-shattering dunk. Not that Central provided many highlights. So instead of cheering, I just sat on press row wearing the team colors - maroom and gray - as sort of a silent tribute. I know, clever, right?

But with Central losing, you know what that means: There may be some stray tickets available for tonight's game. Rumor has it that Central fans are notorious for leaving the tournament after the Eagles lose, sometimes giving away their tickets.
