I almost have to laugh as I keep reading on this board how UConn is playing their best basketball now. Ummmmm based on what? Losing to Providence? Barely squeaking by a terrible Pitt team at home? Pulling out a miracle against a very weak West Virginia team? Losing yet again to Syracuse...which, oh by the way, as so many other threads have pointed out, is playing horribly right now. I just don't see anything different now from what we've seen all year. We are a very average team.

Thank God we can always count on some self-aggrandizing to come around and let us know that we shouldn't act like fans.

Nice work.

There's your reality check, dimwit.

Nah, that gives him an out - "Oh, I just did that for the mojo!"

Bull s***. He should be forced to simmer in his own stupid for all time.

Still trying to figure out what is wrong with being a homer. Maybe I should "keep it real" and root for the favorite Kentucky.

Fanatic and realist don't go together. Go find Dr. Phil's sports message board and happily post there.

Yeah we've been crap, but right now there are some marbles rolling around...... In AO's head. And he's thinking I'm tired of the sh#t year I've had and I'm gonna make somebody pay in this tournament. If that happens......

"simmer in his own stupid for all time' may be one of the great images/visuals applied to a poster in the history of the Yard. Well done my man!!

You can't get any mojo-juice out of this .

This is the same asshat who posted "Can we all agree that Drummond was overhyped" in November.
Yea...you're right. I was way off there. :rolleyes: Drummond was obviously everything you'd expect the number 1 recruit in the country to be. Just like you thought, he was the final piece that put us over the top. He was as good as advertised... only if you looked at the advertisement for a 6'10" athletic guy who has absolutely no basketball fundamentals or passion for winning.

You were the one that started the bashing of Cinn and L'ville because THEY lack offense. My guess is you live somewhere where mirrors don't exist. It's one thing to be a fan... quite another to be a egotistical who slams every other team and thinks they have far more flaws than UConn does when this year, quite the opposite is true. It's self pretentious stone throwing fans like you that give the country a negative perception of the Uconn fanbase

Having read through this entire thread, what shocks me more than anything else is that you have the brainpower to successfully operate a computer.

You are right. most 9 seeds have 2 high lottery picks and 4 others with pro potential. name 4 other teams in the country that can say that. go....

You're right, losing to Providence automatically means a team will not advance far in the tournament.

What's the point, by the way, of being a fan if you're not going to be a homer?

Exactly. A team that lost to Ptovidence would have no shot at winning any postseason tournament, even the BET.

I see what you did there.*

Good mojo:

1) Being in Duke's bracket
2) Last time we lost to Syracuse in the BET semifinal (2009) they failed to win the tournament, and Louisville won it instead. We made it to a Final 4 that year.
3) This team is due for a big upset win.

In short, we are doomed.
