Dragons Speak

Sometimes you need to take a day and just step back and laugh.  So today, enjoy this collection from some of the messages that I've received over the prior week, then forget DU hoops for a bit.  We'll see you back here tomorrow for the Towson pregame.


To the point:

@DragonsSpeak are we gonna win again this year?

Once one of our biggest fans, and I really believe he will be again, but DU Athletics has to give all fans a reason to #DUBelieve.  Right now, it's just a hashtag.

@DragonsSpeak Put simply: there's not much compelling me to make the drive to the DAC more than once a season. Agree change is needed. (1/2)

@DragonsSpeak Feels like our peers passed us by. At this point I'd be happy for a change to the MAAC, less travel, and same level of comp.

The laughter isn't limited to the Philadelphia area:

@DragonsSpeak @gheorghetheblog that's why Shaver didn't want the Philly trip to be a waste and tried to schedule University of the Sciences.

Telling the tale of the season:

@DragonsSpeak What a disgusting effort. What a disgusting response. "We only have 8 players+4 are freshman" Very disappointing.

Josh is a good guy, but got a real chuckle out of this one:

Four-out lineup going well for the Dragons so far, as they're off to a 9-3 lead on W&M. Having big guards in the 6-6 Lee and 6-7 Allen helps

If you haven't been following Adam this season, you haven't been following Drexel Basketball:

It’s a 20-point game now with under nine minutes to go. I know Twitter is dead, but it’s not as dead as this crowd, so I’ll keep tweeting.

Best one liner of the week:

@DragonsSpeak Come to the greatest technical school ever then graduate in a building that needs to have AC brought in!
— RyChKo (@DrachenFire82) January 5, 2015

Ending with my favorite reply that I've received in some time:

Tavon Allen 1 of 14 from the floor. Someone help with this hashtag. President Obama #PplWhoCouldGo1of14
— Dragons Speak (@DragonsSpeak) January 6, 2015

#PplWhoCouldGo1of14 Freddie Wilson. #Drexel @DragonsSpeak

@DragonsSpeak #PplWhoCouldGo1of14 Not Bru
