Back to the Future

And yes, when the Green Machine (the royal “we”) beat the Web (the Richmond Alumni team), “we” (barring an upset – GO Team DRC) get to play Ram Nation on their home court just like, oh just about every CAA Tournament between 1996- 2012 (only worse, because the TBT is at the Siegel Center not the Richmond Coliseum – and by the way – someone tell ESPN the Siegel Center does NOT give the Web a “home-court advantage” even if is in the same town – see ESPN’s Ranking every team… below).
