Hate to be the one to tell you this but you can be a fan of a team and still be objective and realistic about their post season chances.
Agree to disagree.

Fan is short for fanatic. Fanatic would never pick against their team. Therefore, you're absolutely wrong.Hate to be the one to tell you this but you can be a fan of a team and still be objective and realistic about their post season chances.
How does it feel to be objective and realistic this morning?Hate to be the one to tell you this but you can be a fan of a team and still be objective and realistic about their post season chances.
That’s why I do boxes (Super Bowl) instead. Better yet, Braylon’s also won me some loot as we had 3/2The reason I don't fill out brackets is simple, every year my bracket would have UConn advancing to win it all. For every other game it would have "I don't give a $#!&".
If you're referring to me, feel free to DM me and I can give you an explanation.Reminder that this thread is being led by the leader of the "Reed is soft" brigade.
@temery drop the chat script
Ooooh thank you!Just go to the chat and read it should be there. I've been trying to get it to sort so the very first posts are at the top so you gotta scroll back to get to the beginning of the first half.
@temery it appears to have sorted newest to oldest, but doesn't go back past 7:34pm. If possible to troubleshoot, it would be appreciated for mojo purposes 😄Ooooh thank you!
If you ever tried telling a real poop flinging monkey that he was a poop flinging monkey, you'd quickly realize the value he placed on your opinion.I voted for a Furman loss but that's because I don't take anything Boneyard related remotely seriously.
Y'all are a bunch of poop flinging monkeys.
Yes, you can be. I choose not to be. Doesn't matter the month, if they play a game, I want them to win it. I save my "objective realism" for the football team.Hate to be the one to tell you this but you can be a fan of a team and still be objective and realistic about their post season chances.
I had 2/0 Duke/Uconn for 5 grand and I am not the LEAST bit unhappy!!!That’s why I do boxes (Super Bowl) instead. Better yet, Braylon’s also won me some loot as we had 3/2
Damn, I only won $100, split $400 with 3 buddiesI had 2/0 Duke/Uconn for 5 grand and I am not the LEAST bit unhappy!!!
Hoping karma will come back to me.....semis are each worth 10k and final is 20kDamn, I only won $100, split $400 with 3 buddies
You all truly need to relax, I’ve supported UConn longer than most people on this board have been alive. You can be cautiously optimistic about a team in December and still be a fan, like truly take it a notch down.How does it feel to be objective and realistic this morning?
when did I ever say I picked against them? You ever heard of cautious optimism? Seriously calm down.Fan is short for fanatic. Fanatic would never pick against their team. Therefore, you're absolutely wrong.
He was right, wasn't he?I guess I don’t understand people. My friend is a St. John’s fan for 30 years so in our little $10 tourney pool he picks Duke over St. John’s and Duke to win it all. I mean St. John’s was not some 10 seed, they should have been a 3 based on their performance yesterday alone. They actually had the talent to go all the way, not so far fetched. How does one pick against the team they love?
Well, you are factually incorrect.Agree to disagree.
What does wanting them to win it have to do with whether you think they will win it?Yes, you can be. I choose not to be. Doesn't matter the month, if they play a game, I want them to win it. I save my "objective realism" for the football team.
Yeah we’re winning it all. Learned my lesson, never picking against us in one of these polls againI either had us losing Elite 8 or Final 4, but I’ll fully own it when we’re celebrating our 7th title after knocking out Izzo, Pitino, Sampson and AZ or Mich consecutively
Well, you are factually incorrect.
