If you say you’re a Rhody fan, I know you are my brother. For you have suffered as I have suffered.

Re: Conference Tournaments
Does Coach K instruct all his players to bitch and moan on
every single call against them?
Talk about a heightened sense of entitlement!
Bonzie Jr. was terrific tonight.

Re: Conference Tournaments
I do not want Duke to win the national title.....
They might sneak into a 2 seed though....and I wouldn't be surprised if we win tomorrow, get a 10 seed, win that game against the 7 seed, and get you-know-who in the next round....
For some reason, we get put into Duke's region a lot......those fuckers have cost us big time a couple times......

Common sense is not common.
Re: Conference Tournaments
I agree beyond all that is reasonable. I have stayed up watching the Pac12, and get why there is an east coast bias if he calls many west coast games late nightRFORTE wrote:I don't know where to post this, but God i hate Bill Walton

Re: Conference Tournaments
I get the east coast bias also. I think USC should be in over a couple teams like Cuse and Kansas state not over URI though

Re: Conference Tournaments
Love Bill for what he did for the celtics...but hearing him talk about "the conference of champions" that is comprised of what should be the same amount of NCAA bids as the A10 makes me ill.

Re: Conference Tournaments
To be fair, he has been saying that since the Pac12 started play. I just keep reminding myself he is so high he doesn't actually know words are falling out of his mouthRFORTE wrote:He just said Cal and USC should be in over us and called us a truck stop programurirx wrote:I agree beyond all that is reasonable.

I think the correct response is, "not lately in basketball, they can keep winning in skiing"

Re: Conference Tournaments
Walton will always shill for the Pac12.......have to balance the Dickie V Kentucky bullshit and the Bilas Duke love affair......
A truck stop program? That's the West Greenwich campus.....
Anyway, somebody tell VCU to take one for the A10 team and lay down tomorrow.......
Actually VCU's resume isn't any better than ours....who have they beaten besides Dayton once?
If we win tomorrow that's 2 losses to us...and they have those 2 gift wrapped wins against the Bonnies and GW.....
Without those it could be them closer to out than us.

Re: Conference Tournaments
I blame the bias for cuse on the fact so many of the sports media went there for school. Kstate and Vandy are just a bad match up for a specific team (Baylor and florida respectively) that end up making up half their good wins. that the committee apparently doesn't call out

Re: Conference Tournaments
They are a P5 school with a national title and many NCAAT appearances.....doesn't matter that their resume is worse than ours THIS YEAR......it's their reputation that gets them in over schools like us.
We are fortunate that a lot of other bubble P5 schools with national reputations shat the bed the last couple of weeks....or else we would HAVE to win tomorrow.
