It's showtime!

Welcome to Davidson basketball 2007-2008. All of the preview articles are in, the prognosticators have done their job and Davidson is "it." The Wildcats are the premier Cinderella/Mid-Major/Small School/Little guy in the country this year and when the curtain is raised on tonight's season-opening exhibition game, Wildcat fans around the world will finally get to be unfrozen from that carbonite state that struck all of us simultaneously at 3:15 p.m. on March 15, 2007.

I will be live blogging tonight's game and earnestly ask for your contributions in the comment box. Please suggest different ways to format the live blog (separate entries, different ordering, etc.), different forms of content or observation that you'd like to read or anything else that comes to mind.

Coach McKillop always talks about the need to dance when nobody's watching but he also talks about the need to perform when the lights come up on that Broadway stage. We're all settling in now, the players are gathered in the wings and the cameras are about to start rolling. It's showtime.
