Getting Georgetown Into NCAA's

[mutpm]

Hey hey, I never said I was proud of this.

I wasn't sure if showing remorse is the sign of a passionate fan. That may not be the right type of emotion. I'll let the passion commissioner rule on that.

Shall we count the times you have called me an idiot or other names MUBasketball?? I didn't think so...Those who live in glass houses maybe??

Find one post where I've called someone an idiot.

Here's a little hint for you, and then I'm done with you Sultan...I'm probably the most Private person in the entire world... NO ONE(not even the few close to me), know what I do, why I do it, where or when I do it.
I'm certainly not going to advertise why I missed those games to a bunch of anonymous people on a message board. Sometimes, I will craft things(posts), the way I do to be deceptive, and to keep myself and my life private. That's the way I operate. I have my reasons, and we'll leave it at that. When I get called out the way he did, I strike back. He knows NOTHING about me, so perhaps he shouldn't jump to conclusions. I don't care what i wrote or how I wrote it. Cut people some slack.

Wait...your the most private person in the entire world, yet you advocate emotional displays of passion?!?!? You ridicule those that don't display passion?

Dude. You need to take a break. You continue to talk yourself into circles.

In all my years on message boards, I have never felt the need to use the ignore function. I figure if I post something critical, I should allow others to criticize me(and boy do they ever). Well, you have just become my first...you are the most arrogant, condescending, cocky, know it all pri*ck I have ever seen infiltrate a message board(and that's saying something because there's guys out there like Erictheered). I for one am tired of your act. Your arrogance would fit beautifully with badger posters on their board(s). Congratulations...that's a great group to be in company with.

Maybe IWB could lock this thread……..just a thought?

No need....I'm done. I'll give you all what you want. You can have your "everything is seashells and balloons" attitudes and criticize me who doesn't share the same view. You're entitled to that. But i'm tired of people telling me how I should act about a basketball game/season. There is no right or wrong way. Everyone is different, didn't we at least establish that in this thread?? Yeah I wear my emotions on my sleeve for MU BB, always have, always will...I won't apologize for that. Just keep something in mind...for those of you criticizing me because I'm "so openly" emotional, well any time you clap, or cheer, or cuss, or pump your fist when you are at a game...you are displaying emotion. So to do that and then come here and claim you're not the type to be "openly" emotional is a little disingenuous.

Personally, I think you are all good guys even though I don't know any of you(even you MU basketball). I think we all share a common bond...being fanatical about MU basketball, and that's a good thing! It's been a tough season I think we all agree on that. Most of you handle that better than I do, I accept that and admit that, you are better people than I am for sure. It seems silly to be so emotionally vested in a basketball team/program the way I am, and i tell myself that all the time...yet I can't seem to change that.

I hope beyond hope for all of us, this team turns it around somehow some way and finds their way into the NCAAs. That would be quite the story. One I'm positive we'd all like to see be written.

I will say this in closing...I have more MU hats, T-shirts, jackets than I could ever possibly wear in a lifetime, and I know I have a VERY different way of expressing my passion for MU hoops, but believe me when I tell you...If i didn't love it as much as I do, or care about it as much as I do, I wouldn't get as angry as I do. That's just how I'm wired. If I can take to my grave that my passion for MU hoops was never in question by anyone(even if the ways I displayed it were), Then I'll forever be okay with that.

The one thing I single handedly tried to change amongst you all and in my personal life was to make the MU-UW rivalry more like the Kentucky-Louisville rivalry is today. I failed at that miserably. More than anything else I'd love to see it become that way, that's just a personal wish. I don't think it ever will be. But that's okay.

I hold no ill will towards any of you for any of your comments to me over the years..that's just part of being a fan. The more MU fans there are in this world/state, the better off we all will be. I hope you all enjoy the ride that is MU hoops. For the first time in many years it's been a bumpy one, but it won't be long and they will be right back to where we are all accustomed to them being. Go marquette!!


Peace

Just to be clear - I wasn't just referring to MU Iceman.

Use all this crap to back up your claims that you want. I want you to tell me how many legitimate title contenders the Big East currently has, or will have in the future?? Likely none, unless MU gets their crap together. THAT'S what makes a conference.

Let's go through the "power" conferences shall we?? I'm sure I will miss some, but just off the top of my head....legitimate title contenders:

ACC-Syracuse, Duke
BXII-Kansas, Oklahoma State
B10- Michigan St, Michigan
SEC-Florida, Kentucky


I mean the 4 power conferences have probably at least two legitimate national Title contenders, in some cases probably 1-2 more. The Big East has....ZERO. It will always be like this.

You are leaving out UW. They have a chance with their offense.
