The Mojo

[prankster]

That would be mojo for Maryland. Why would I do that?

I can't figure out,
If it's the beginning or the end.

Well, I guess I've figured it out now.

 

[prankster]

See?

Yeah.... Nother exceptional job, on your part.

A guy comes on the mojo thread and says “I don’t believe in mojo” and it’s my fault. Got it.

As the judiciary branch of this place, you sure seem to want to conscript every civilian into doing your job for you.

Sorry, I just don’t...but you do you. It’s entertaining anyway.

It's not your job to get believers to sign on - it's your job to make the non believers believers. That's when the magic happens. I was a non believer when "Winning" was announced. I was all in by the end. That was a brilliant campaign. This one had no legs.

The problem is there were multiple victims that would rally the cause. Some very obvious targets with some history here. Upstater has history but no juice. The gas bag was a nobody.

Felt like you were guided by your own personal dislike rather than a fair reading of the prevailing winds.

My mojo is typically off the charts. I thought everything about yesterday was weak.

I'm not going to get into the high level of religiosity required of 2014, but yesterday I had to go to a home for a plumbing call at noon, and those bastards had to break up the floor of the basement to get to a pipe. By 7 pm, they were still there. I was watching on my phone without UConn gear and without a beer. Not even my quick ducks into the Chat for a drive-by comment (always good for some UConn fuel) could save things.

How about this...what we post here has absolutely nothing to do with how the team plays. I truly believe that.

Then nothing that you post does. That’s a rule one of the mojo.

what the living funk?
let's all get in a circle
and shoot each other

I never believed anything I posted had any effect on the teams play. I’m sitting on my couch....they’re on the court.

Unexpected loss hangover...everyones lives will go on. Eventually.

And since you never believed it, it doesn’t.

 

[Bomber36]

And since you never believed it, it doesn’t.

When I’m there in person screaming my head off with thousands of others, I am a true believer. Just can’t make that leap to a message board. That’s why I don’t make inane lineup or coaching suggestions...I just read everyone else’s.

And so your posts don’t matter. I’m agreeing with you.

 

[Bomber36]

And so your posts don’t matter. I’m agreeing with you.

In the context of making the team win, you are correct.

I don’t care who believes or doesn’t believe. I only control what I can control.

 

[prankster]

I only control what I can control.

Which is not much from all appearances.

Maybe you should lay some blame off to your hangman.

Which just happens to be the annual hanging and sentence. You can’t victory dance when it all comes together and then throw your hands in the air and say “it’s not my fault“ when it doesn’t.

 

[CL82]

Has Swami really done anything for years? He’s good for what a couple of posts annually? He needs to be out there enforcing the sentence.

I’m not sure you understand that is exactly how it works.

 

[Deepster]

Yeah, yeah. The post loss finger pointing. All part of the Judge’s life here.

You shoulda coulda!!!! This too shall pass.

 

[CL82]

That’s fair, because I am growing increasingly concerned you don’t either.

 

[Deepster]

That’s it. Let it all out.

Out with the hot air. In with the cool.
