Title: Why was Shaka Crying?
Post by: CryingShaka on March 24, 2024, 06:49:55 PM
Lots of comments on Twitter/X wondering why Shaka was crying when Marquette beat a seed 8 spots below MU.

I have to agree it looked ridiculous.  Watching the coach of Purdue just act businesslike after winning a game they were supposed to win was much more appropriate than Shaka blubbering like they had just beaten Houston to go to the Final Four.

MU is a bleeping 2 seed.  You do not cry after beating a 10 seed, lol.

First trip to the sweet 16 since 2011.  Redemption after last year.  Genuine love for his team.    I would criticize your take, but I am told that is mean and interferes with you fully embracing your personhood.

Not sure why I am taking the time to respond but here i go.

Most all of us on this board are diehard fans. It's been a very very very long road to get to where we are now. Shaka has a love for the game and love for his players. I'm not saying you had to get emotional with him but watching the interview if you are a fan of Marquette basketball you could feel what he was expressing, and we all agreed with it.

The fans on this board spend a ton of money on tickets, gear, donations and we finally got back to the 2nd weekend where we haven't been for 11 years. Let us enjoy the day. I would rather have a coach who wears his heart on his sleeve like shocka over a choke artist like Matt Painter any day of the weak.

The best thing about Shaka's emotions was that he articuled how he didn't want the season to end because he loves his guys so much.  He's not worried about losing, he's thinking about how much he values the time he has with his seniors, and what a loss would have felt like to them.  I'd bet my house the pressure Shaka put on himself was enormous, and it all revolved around wanting to be sure he put his seniors in the best position to win.

I've been to Badger practices and MU practices...I don't need to talk about the Badgers, but the love Shaka has for his guys is real as is the love his guys have for him.  Win or lose...it's special.

The only thing that matters is winning and losing in the tourney.

Gard is going to be fired for too many tourney chokes, and he should be.

If MU had lost today, Shaka should have been fired.

For an uneducated basketball fool, like yourself, once you're in March Madness seeds are irrelevant.  It's all about surviving and advancing.  Colorado was not a great matchup for Marquette.  Colorado also has 3 legit 1st round NBA prospects.  This game was a great game by both teams, but Marquette won.  During the interview, Shaka choked up, to me it seems like it may have even caught him off guard, but he didn't hide his emotions.  Comparing coaches personalities is silly, what does it accomplish?  It establishes each person/coach is different, huh?

Though I doubt it, someday you may have someone who cares about you or who you care about.  For normal people, they sometimes find themselves emotional when good things happen for those they care about.  It is part of being a normal, empathetic person.  You need to at least pretend to have traits like this in order to maximize your ability to wreak your sociopathic havoc.  Try watching Dexter for tips.

My wife likes to point out I teared up when the Cubs won the World Series but not when we got married or the birth of our kids.

I tell her "I've known the Cubs longer".
I got married 30 years ago this summer so I'm not sure about my wedding.  I'm pretty sure I did when my first daughter was born.  Definitely did when the Cubs won but that was 40 years in the making for me.

Being with all of my kids and watching the Cavs win the NBA title on Father's Day is a special memory.

I watched with my dad and we both still cry happy tears over that game.  He has all 7 games still on his DVR but watches game 7 on the reg.  The Cavs winning it all meant a ton, but a Browns super bowl victory would be the pinnacle.

Shaka was crying because he couldn’t help it.

He wasn’t the only one that had a hard time fighting off the misties

NLW, those who criticize others for crying tears of joy must not know what joy is.

I admit that I got emotional when MU won the regular season BE last season and that was the first time since we beat Kentucky with Wade. I am hoping that this team gives me a few more times to tear up before the season is over. Like many scoopers, I feel very connected to these guys pretty much from day one, but definitely from the Illinois game two years ago.

I remember going to the UCLA game two years ago believing that this program would become elite. That game has stuck in my mind because it was a reminder of far they had to go. Hopefully that game is still their minds because that nightmare can be erased as well in the coming weeks.

Hurley admits to crying a good part of the day before today's game.   Out of love of his players.

Real men aren't afraid to cry, or of another man's tears.

I briefly misread this and I sort of prefer my version now (in voice of White Goodman): "Real men aren't afraid to cry another man's tears"
