With 12 minutes, 50 seconds to play, North Carolina guard-forward Marcus Ginyard fell to the court, injured. Roy Williams ran out to check on him, but Ginyard didn't move. Finally he stood and fans gave him an ovation. Ginyard even smiled as he walked to the bench. Last month when North Carolina guard Bobby Frasor was hurt he, too, walked off the court. The walk was impressive in that he had torn his ACL. The Tar Heels are trying to get Frasor another season, but he played three too many games. North Carolina thinks highly enough of Frasor that they're fighting for an extra season anyway. And Ginyard? While the Tar Heel players huddled during a timeout, Ginyard worked on the end of the bench with trainer Marc Davis, hopping repeatedly on his left leg. He looked silly, but he was fine. No offense, but unless you're a hard-core Tar Heels fan, why are you inside reading blogs? This game is more one-sided than most New England games. I'm writing blogs because I'm a trained professional and because, well, I have to. But if I were you, I'd be outside. You're welcome.

Based on what you managed to come up with here, I'd suggest you go outside as well. Thank god for the Hoyas last year.
