New AP rankings: LV's got whacked...

[BigO]

I'm surprised by the tone of some of the Boneyarder's posts, too. You've been a reasonable visitor. We've had other visiting fans that have seen their teams and conferences through tinted glasses, I'm afraid that it's your allegiance to the LVs that has caused this particular outburst.

i tend to agree. i think i am being judged for my orange blood and former visitors on here. anyway, i understand. that happens on the SUMMITT. thanks for the nice post. maybe we can chat later. got to eat! ha

apparently this is a different group of UCONN fans on tonight. there is normally a better reception to opposing views. maybe it's just a bunch of middle school fans posting who knows

not at all. UCONN fans mostly enjoy intelligent and thoughtful conversation and debate with other teams. but when you come on here and not only call out posters, but do it with a hint of a 'tude, and incorrect facts to boot, you can expect to get called out yourself.

i noticed you never did reply to my post. it's easy to point the finger at others. hard to point it at yourself...

Where, exactly, did BigO call anyone out? And as for incorrect facts, he's looking at things as a Tenn/SEC fan so he's got a different perspective. Besides, if we yelled at everyone that was loosey-goosey with facts, the Boneyard would be a truly inhospitable place indeed.

go back and read the posts between me and him. he said " i am not even going to try to debunk all that. the sec will have the most teams in the tourney this year.....and you might want to watch the baylor/tenn game", and then went on to give incorrect facts.

btw the facts i pointed out as incorrect are also in my reply post so i won't rehash them again...

honestly, i didn't reply to your post b/c i don't want to engage with the "tude" stuff. your facts may be right. who knows as i am certainly not rewatching a basketball game so i can respond with a cute remark. sorry just not my style. it's not THAT deep.

That's calling you out?

thanks. i may be wrong about how long was left in game but i honestly was just commenting on the sec and it's improvement this year as a conference. as you can see, my posts clearly say the lady vols are not playing well at all right now. that's as honest as i can be (especially for a long time LV fan) lol

This fairly dribbled with contempt for the intellect and knowledge of UConn fans:

i hate to break it to you...there are good teams outside the big east.

Not surprised that people got hackles up in response. It took a force of will for me to resist slapping back.

yes nancy I thought it was, if you read the post in its' entirety... i didn't accuse him of killing a puppy or shooting anyone. what would you call it? he tells me i'm wrong, makes a smart alecky comment (not the end of the world) and then proceeds to tell me i'm wrong by supplying his own "facts" that are wrong. so i replied very nicely and pointed out where he missed the mark(s)...

i even ended the post by saying someting nice about tennessee and the players!!

really? you got worked up over that? wow ok

anyway why don't we just stop with the rant? it's not that serious people. it's a sports messageboard. have fun geesh

i hate to break it to you...there are good teams outside the big east. ha KY is a very good team and gave ND all they could handle AT notre dame. it's a little absurd to say KY isn't a great team.

SC is terribly underranked. dawn staley has those girls playing really well. anyway, don't let facts get in the way of your opinion.

don't get me confused. they are nowhere near where the lady vols should be. just one of the seasons.

You said "great, great" team when describing Kentucky. Now THAT is absurd. "Great, Great" teams don't lose to teams like LSU and MTSU. Not even "great" teams lose those games. Now you backtrack and call them very good. I can buy that.

South Carolina is right about where they should be. #24 right now after beating Tennessee. But they also lost to LSU and had two lousy losses against NCST and a lousy Auburn team. Great teams don't lose those games. I would call the good. That's about it.

You called someone's opinion her absurd. We can do that among ourselves, but when visitors do it, we tend to protect our own.

Where do you get the idea that we are not having fun?

Debating the value of teams is a lot of fun. Don't expect it to be nicey nicey.

i think i am more familiar with the SEC..which should be the case....however, i would say KY, who will likely be a #2 seed is a great team. they play amazing D and are very fast. i think great teams are those who are in top 10-ish. that's my own definition. rem, last year it wasn't a 1, 2 or 3 seed that won the NC. SC is a good team. saying they are "great" may have been a stretch. standing by the KY thing though. they lost to LSU and MTSU very early on.

Well, to be fair, we also sometimes eat our own...
