Sabotage at UConn...

So the answer is Temple, 2/2o, where he was 5-9 with 3 rbs, 3 assists, and 3 steals, as well as 14 points?

Look, he hasn't been great, but neither has anyone over that stretch, and they were 3-2 with a win over a top 15 opponent. The team hit a cold spell; hopefully they start hitting 3s again, because a number have been wide open shots.

Missing wide open looks is one thing, ie.. when Giffey misses. Eventually, those will fall. Forcing shots that aren't there are a completely different thing. If you continue to force, you will get the same result. I admit I am being particularly hard on Boat, but over that same stretch I feel Boat has reverted back to his selfish, me first ways, particularly the Rutgers game. He gives us energy but he is forcing a ton of shots that are hurting his team and more importantly, its chemistry.(which currently is non-existent)

When the season ends and we reflect back on what was, I think we will mostly agree that contributions from Bazz, Giffey, Kromah, Brimah exceeded our expectations, Olander and Nolan played as expected, and it was the underwhelming play of Daniels, Boatright, and Omar Calhoun that ultimately determined our fate.

Please. His question was "Does anyone remember the last time Boatright did something constructive on the court?" He's not trying to have a "discussion."

That's right. This thread is devoted to proving that Walt Dropo single-handedly resolved the Cuban Missile Crisis. FACT.

Where is your Oscar Robertson now, payday?
 
I thought the football board was messed-up...think I´ll head back there for some sanity.

Last I heard, he was high fiving Cincy's most recent "consensus building" First Team All American...

I don't post too often on here...but I do read a lot and can tell that some posters are just like:

FACT? Maybe on Wikipedia. You completely overlook the contribution of 19 year old Andy Etchebarren, who was called up to the Orioles 3 weeks before the Cuban Missile Crisis. As another noted American League catcher once said, "You could look it up."

Don't say another goshdarn word. Up until now, I've been polite. If you say anything else - one word - I will kill myself. And when my tainted spirit finds its destination, I will topple the master of that dark place. From my black throne, I will lash together a machine of bone and blood, and fueled by my hatred for you this fear engine will bore a hole between this world and that one. When it begins, you will hear the sound of children screaming - as though from a great distance. A smoking orb of nothing will grow above your bed, and from it will emerge a thousand starving crows. As I slip through the widening maw in my new form, you will catch only a glimpse of my radiance before you are incinerated. Then, as tears of bubbling pitch stream down my face, my dark work will begin. I will open one of my six mouths, and I will sing the song that ends the Earth

This is MASTERFUL!! and you should seek counseling immediately :-)
 
Cripes, you ever hear of paragraphs OP? Regardless, this crap was tl: dnr
 
If you love UConn hoops the Louisville game was humiliation at its finest. What a way for the Ville to say goodbye to UConn into the ACC. A reasonable person may have thought UConn would have been the team playing with a chip on its shoulder. Boatright has held himself out as a potential NBA prospect ad nauseam. To the point everyone was speculating he wouldn't return next year except a few of us. I don't think Ryan intentionally acts as a team cancer. It just seems inherent in his play the majority of the time. Just ask Bazz (a guy many believe should have his name/jersey in the rafters). I think the OP makes some passionate points that should be respected.

The BY has always held itself out as a forum of free expression (I have been deleted for critical posts though lol). Let's see what happens against Memphis. Coach Ollie has stated changes have been implemented to rectify some of the problems. I will take his optimism and trust it.

Now let's see what happens Thursday evening.

The only relationship Andy Etchebarren bears to this thread is that his eyebrows were the key to confirming the whole Higgs Boson thing. Dropo saved the world. Dropo, and Dropo alone.

Also, Memphis is going down again. I'm surprised they haven't forfeited yet. Andre Turner isn't walking through that door, Keith Lee isn't walking through that door, William Bedford isn't walking through that door....LET'S GO HUSKIES

I think you have the wrong Boneyard.

A 'forum for free expression'?

My god, no.

If I could find all of you and remove the parts of your brains that generate opinions and the ability to type, I would. If anything, this site just keeps you all in one place while I work out those logistics.

How could you possibly afford to punch that many people in the throats without injuring your hand?
