Not sure if the unfavorable scheduling to this point had anything to do with it, or if these teams just aren't near as good as expected. Probably both.

Anyway, 1-4 starts and last place for teams picked 2nd and 4th in the preseason.

yes uta is certainly stinking up the place. they have been unpredictable. other than playing gonzaga down to the wire and beating a pretty good tulsa team, they have not been able to get it done. last night couldnt make shots on their own home court. the mavs have already lost a season worth of games and even if things turned around, they would get one of the worst seeds in the tourney. since we dont have football, some of us really look forward to basketball season but the air has gone out of that balloon in short order. oh well, baseball not to far off. the mavs signed a small army of pitchers in the off season and have their usual list of good teams coming in to play.

Soooo you're a Mav Fan, having to live through a lousy Basketball season . . . could be worse .. .

. . you could be living through a lousy basketball season on the heels of a lousy Football season. . . perhaps NOT having a football program is a blessing, perhaps not.

Agree that "baseball is not far off," and may prove to be the sport of redemption (gotta hang my hat on something).

I kinda want to smack you. I'd take a losing football season over what we have now...
