You guys just don't like me because I dont put up with BS. If a team is sucking Im going to call them out and Im not going to sugarcoat things. If they are doing things right Im all about giving them praise.
Give them praise....really:
It's halftime, and we're up 7...
Should be up 10 if we didnt have complete idiots out on the floor, let alone seniors who should be smarter than that.
You guys are completely clueless, we'll see how that 3 plays out at the end of the game. Absolutely inexcusable mistake, I would bench NWB for the second half. Only a complete moron would shoot the ball with enough time left for the other team to score.
It would be one thing if he was wide open, but it was a horrible shot.
We were up 7 at half, against the first place team on their floor and all you could do was b**** about one play.....ONE! Is that what you define as "calling them out"? Oh, then there is this nice little exchange which ties in directly to the above:
BS
You called the players moron and idiots and thought there should be a benching that certainly would have cost us the game. Nothing simple about that.
And we don't have to scan this site to find your negativity, you flail it about generously.
I've seen guys get benched for stuff like that before, especially after the coach had just instructed them to hold for the last shot and Im sure had been practiced hundreds of times before.
Funny you think by benching I meant that he never plays again. I was thinking more along the lines of a couple minutes to start the 2nd half but whatever you guys think.
Whoa........wait a minute. What happened? Are you telling us now that the "moron" that you called out for making an "inexcusable" mistake allowing the opposing team time to hit a.......HALF COURT SHOT before halftime should now only sit "a couple of minutes" for that heinous crime?
I guess thats just my competitive nature and the way I was brought up playing sports. I was brought up in an era where you worked your butt off for playing time, if you werent cutting it(aka pretty much everybody last night who refused to rebound) then my coach would find somebody who would. Or if you werent using your head you get benched until you can do things the right way. I also got my fair share of ass-chewings, something that seems to be lost nowadays on these players.
Whats funnny about Prohm is he's a huge disciplinarian when you don stuff off the court, but god forbid you give pathetic effort like last night and you still get the same amount of minutes either way. Talley is an afterthought and Lewis will never see the floor again in this program, but yet guys can do stupid stuff on the court all the time and theyll be right back out there.
"they'll be right back out there". Isn't that what you suggested should be done with a "moron"....................."a couple of minutes"?
This board is a prime example of participation trophy culture whenever something goes bad. We have one segment like myself who want to see this team reach its maximum potential, then the other half dead set on defending anything and everything with the program no matter what happens.
