Message: [QUOTE="August_West, post: 4603092, member: 1047"] I won't touch the other threads because it makes me wish for blindness, but I will have my say. I wish this term (Blueblood) would be nuked from the earth. "mojo" reasons is certainly on the list but not even first or second place! This conversation is happening on a national level this week with media, and is all over the podcasts. (Dauster, love you man, I devour your great content daily, but get a grip. I listened to that mess the other night on this topic with Hansbrough, you're trying too hard to be neutral. Tyler was really good though. ). It's tedious to the nth degree. Listening to someone detailing why we should be a blueblood makes me question whether sticking an ice pick into the base of my skull is actually a good option. . It is only eclipsed by listening to people make a case on why we [I]shouldn't [/I]be a Blue blood, which makes me ponder population control scenarios. Forget for a second whether we should be in the discussion or not. Even if we weren't and it was about the merit of others it is the most inane discussion in sports. And that's a high bar to cross. Want proof? Look at our Nova friend [USER=7920]@Zissou[/USER] 's imbecilic prattle in that other thread. He usually is a decent poster. But on this topic, no one is. Because it sucks. No matter what side a person would like to argue on this topic, they sound insensible. The goalposts are constantly and will always be moved. Please stop. I think we should just go ahead and win a title , and then organically the term "UConn" can replace "Blueblood" As in: "Wow UCLA finally won another title, do you think that resolidifies their status as a "UConn" ? " "Will Villanova compete for a Championship this year and join the list of all time "UConns" ? That is all. Sanity (and mojo) have now been restored. You're welcome.
