I'm confused. Is this this macarena or the hokey pokey?

I see your Ninja ways, trying to distract me from your tie. Nice try. Bring.... Bring... Roy, it's for you. Your high school math teacher called and wants his tie back.

Tie Weave

Is this a tie or a basket? I know it's blue, but the shade is so far off and the pattern is bad, really bad. Thumbs down. AND WE LOST! I do like the suit though.Saturday, Jan. 13, 2007

Mark you calendars

On Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2007 at Clemson, Roy Williams has a better tie on than the opposing coach, BY FAR! Result: W, 77-55

Beggars can't be choosers

That's what I try to tell myself when I look at this picture. The tie is RIGHT ON. The suit with it, questionable. You're killing me, Roy.

Flashback: 05-06 Season

I'm torn. I am strangely drawn to this tie, but I can't decide if I'm drawn to it in the same way I stare at car wrecks when I drive by. hmmm... what does everyone else think? Acceptable or no?

Okay, I'll give you a break

After more investigation, I'm taking Baddour off of tie watch. While his taste in jewelry is clearly questionable, his taste in ties is not.

You're on notice.

Believe me, I'm as surprised as you are that you're wearing a decent tie.

THIS IS IT! TWO HUGE THUMBS UP!! Thank you! Two Carolina blue ties in one picture. Unbelievable!!

Blue is good

Even though I can't see this tie that well, it is blue. I'll give you a thumbs up.

UNC v Duke - WHAT!?

Roy, if there was ever a time to wear a Carolina Blue tie, it's during the UNC v Duke game in enemy territory. PLEASE! I know it has some blue and I'm trying to be generous, but really.

Marginal - But I'll give it a pass

So, here is where I'll give Roy a break. This isn't a great tie, but it is blue. So, I'll accept it.

So I missed one...

This was from the UNC-Arizona game last Saturday. It's an improvement, I think. But we've still got a long way to come. I look at it like a recovering alcoholic-type situation. Hopefully he has admitted at this point that he has a problem. And this is a step in the right direction. Although if you saw what he wore in the next game against Miami, you know he fell off the wagon again (see previous post for evidence).

An Inconvenient Truth

Alright, even I have to admit that this is not his best look. Something tells me he got dressed in the dark before last night's game. Or is colorblind.

Another one for the ages (Roy Tie Watch 2007)

I have to say that in my opinion, this one is not as bad as some others have said. I know that Rachel was not a big fan (and even text messaged me before I got to the game to warn me about it). But I don't think this is such a terrible-looking tie. Although it might be a good idea to pop on your Ray-Bans before staring at it for too long. And UNC did pull out the win... so maybe Roy will start wearing this one more often as a good luck tie.

LURKER COMMENT:

"Benji said...
I think Roy is doing a little better. And the Heels won handily last night, as well. A coincidence? Methinks not!"

Dear Benji,

I too have noticed a correlation between bad ties and bad games. It's just a hunch we'll have to follow through the season. Do you happen to have a photo of the tie he was wearing for ouur loss to Virginia Tech?

Roy Tie Watch 2007

Does anyone else think the parade of bad ties Roy Williams has been wearing is a cry for help? The worst of these is, of course, the burgundy tie with pheasants. It's time for a tie intervention.

I'd like to post pictures of Roy's bad tie choices, but they are hard to find online. If you've been to a game and caught a pic of one, please post it.
