You must be new. That sort of attitude will get you banned around here buddy

they call you troll :)

and they would be right

Maybe it’s the posters who don’t respect other’s opinions plus can’t handle the truth who are the real trolls.

Going into KFC land against Louisville with a guardy team who can’t throw a rock in the ocean, with a coach (who IMO is delusional and stuck-on-stupid), is a recipe for back-to-back curb stompings. Expecting a win is looking for a miracle.

And don’t jump me. I’m not the one who is Hell bent on fielding 4 of the worst 3pt shooters in the nation (29.19%) and telling them they MUST shoot our way to victory.

Perfect example of what we were talking about in the other thread.

You trashed the players, coach, fans and then followed it up by pretending you were "keeping it real" by doing so.

To be THIS negative after an 11-3 start (including a top 5 win) is the very definition of absurdity and miserable. WE ARE HAVING A GOOD YEAR and will likely have our best finish in 5 years.

Yet you pretend the sky is falling, we have the dumbest coach in the nation and are somehow underachieving on a epic level his season. Sorry, but that is just a fing STUPID point of view

You guys just can't make your true colors any more apparent than that.

You may have been real tiger fans at some point, but now you are just bitter, sad haters who have nothing but negative trolling and cheap shots for the players and coaches, fans and board.

I'm well past smh at you people. I just feel sorry for you miserable little misers.

What a fun and exciting year this is and all you hysterical trolls can do is spam the board daily with snide, insulting comments for Pastner, the players and the board.

If you are complacent with our recent dismal play then that’s your bad. If you’re content with seeing the team get their a$$ kicked in our first game in a new conference, at home and on national TV, more power 2’ya. And it’s not just the recent games because we’ve had trouble putting away the also rends.

But let’s get real. Your problem with me stems from last year because you were sick of my asking for more offensive & defensive post play. Well we are being pushed around this season too and our answer is the same: “Go Smaller”.

We got stomped at OK St playing small ball, changed our strategy and won with it at the Classic by defeating OK ST. Now we are once again playing with the same tactic we got killed with and you think that’s cool? I don’t. And if you don’t like my opinion then cut the personal drama and convince me why I should change it, PERIOD.

Well? Cut the kiddie stuff and convince me.

I don't know what you are even talking about here. This really makes no sense at all.

I have posted NONE of the things you just said. You are putting words in my mouth that I never posted simply to fit your agenda.

Feel free to post a link were I said I was fine with a loss, or that we had no flaws, or the Pastner has no flaws, or that no criticism was fair. You can't because these things do not exist. They are gross exaggerations of what I have posted.

This is also a gross/false characterization of our discussions.

We disagreed on the talent we had available in the post, not on the offensive strategy of playing big. You think playing Stan the Man and Hall would have made us a lot better team last year. I TOTALLY disagreed with that and still do.

You are twisting things to fit your agenda. You know I did not say these things you are suggesting. We have talked about it MANY TIMES.

Virtually all tiger fans want us to be able to be a dominate team in the paint. BUT WE HAVE TO HAVE THE PLAYERS TO DO THAT.

We are getting closer to having that now with the 2013 class , but they are still developing.

Every time you engage in a discussion Jedi you end up blaming someone for "putting words in your mouth". Then it takes you another few posts to try to defend whatever asinine statement you made.

Every. Single. Time.

Gee, why do you think that is Mcfly? Its you miserables main defensive schtick.

Everyone here knows that.

When posters call you guys out for being absurdly negative like this, you get emotional and upset and your first reaction is to start accusing everyone of claiming we're "fine with losses", "that were fine with mediocrity", "that Pastner is a flawless basketball GOD", yada, yada yada....

Its a bunch of lying BS AND YOU KNOW IT.

If your going to claim I said those things..... PROVE IT

Your previous post insinuates that I’m angry at the players, coaches, fans, the Moon, (ect), when the reality is I’m disappointed with our overall performance so far. If you are upset about MY disappointment then my rational conclusion is you are satisfied and all is well with the team.

Yes, we are winning but IMHO we are not playing as well as I think we should.

Saying a fan who don’t respect other’s opinions (even if true) IS trolling. That’s what trolls do. They change the subject, start name-calling, create drama, ect.

Saying the guards can’t shoot isn’t trashing them, it’s the truth. It’s not like they aren’t trying.

The coach is a different matter and you’re correct. Since his statements Saturday I have a totally different view of him.

9000+ posts and yet you need some imaginary, incriminating, unavailable PM's from another poster to prove I said these things about Pastner..

Its conspiracy against you Fry.

I actually said all these things about Pastner being a flawless basketball GOD, about him being perfect in every way and without fault, but the "Powers that Be" erased all evidence from existence just so you wouldn't have any proof.

This should be a lesson whenever people say it doesn't matter where you are ranked at the beginning of the season. Duke, Louisville and Kansas have no right being ranked; but they were ranked high to start the season. Kansas has had a direct hand in ranking both Villanova and Colorado. Cincy has 1 good win and 2 bad losses. We have 1 really good win and 2 bad losses. Our bad losses have come to better teams than Cincy's.

Of course you are, but I'm not. You don't understand how rankings work. Do you think we should be ranked behind Creighton, Gonzaga, Iowa or Duke? How about UCLA? Have you looked at their schedule? Should we be ranked below them?

Hall started for a few months then suddenly he couldn’t even get on the court when need. And I don’t really know about Stan because I never saw him stay in long enough to get in the flow.

But I do know we got pushed around a lot and our answer was to go smaller, and we’re doing the very same thing this year. Heck, we’re even using the same excuse.
