Two threads—on that subject matter. Maybe you should skip the espresso in your martini.

What are you triggered about? I only posted in this thread once so I don’t keep posting the same thing. My post was realistic and innocuous. We hadn’t been playing well for a while, then we played well against bad Xavier and Creighton teams. Now we lost to a good team. I wouldn’t say that...

We aren’t playing that well over the last 10 games. I’m not sure why people have a problem admitting it. Tarris is not the player we needed him to be yet and Solo is too inconsistent. Any voter that’s been paying attention is completely justified in thinking we are over-ranked. We played our...

People aren’t really complaining. We got outplayed by a team that looked better than us. That doesn’t mean we won’t beat them by 20 in Storrs. Last night was disappointing and it confirmed what we were all starting to recognize, we aren’t playing our “A game”. We’ve got work to do. After last...

It’s not an overreaction. They were in the lead the majority of the game and we were always struggling to match their intensity. Yes, it was a close game. That’s because we have a nice collection of talent and good coaches, but they were the better team. More athletic, faster, bouncier and...

We didn’t play awful, they bullied us and controlled pretty much the entire game. They did it to us.

The problem is nuanced when it comes to the refs. When an opponent is allowed to bully you, it often results in bad passes, mental mistakes and missed shots. Its hard to play well being grabbed, pushed and elbowed on both ends. Just one example, but in the low post, SJU could have been...

I really don’t care if we get a 2 seed. I like when we get disrespected. It always gives us a boost.

They do nothing with more. Cocks.

I really wish there was a way to bring the Big East back to its former glory. I just got home, poured a drink, and sat down to see what games are on. Unfortunately, there’s no Big East games, and I’m not interested in anything else. I don’t care about the B1G or WVU/Cincy. I’m not sure what I...

Doug isn't wrong, its a flawed metric, especially when you have injuries etc. However, at his age he should know that making excuses doesn't go over well with the public.

Storus Smart Money Clip. I've had it for years and its like new. I've got a decent amount of cash and a dozen or so cards in it at the moment. Much less bulky than a wallet. I have the silver/stainless one. No paint to chip...

Which one? I don’t remember thinking that but if you think it, I probably thought it. I second guess everything.

At this point, UMass doesnt have anything to offer someone of a really high caliber that could build their athletic department. Even if you go back to when Jim Calhoun was hired, we had Big East membership as something to sell coaches, players, and fans. UMass doesn’t even have the Atlantic 10...

I gotta ask. Have you ever really tried it?
