Big game...near sell out...we will by 11...
I don't get a chance to see it, so I come on here afterward to see what the details are, and all I read about is how the crowd wasn't energetic enough, how we can never close out games, etc.
Jeez you people can be picky... We won a big game against a quality opponent. Be happy.
Agreed. Always find something to b**** about.
Someone must have forgotten to chill everyone's cans of Ensure today. That'll get any old timers' depends in a bundle. ;D
Seriously. After every win something new is complained about.

FWIW... there are three threads discussing the "details."

Negative comments stir more discussion on this board and really anywhere in life. If you started a thread that said Acker played well, you might get 5 responses. If you start a thread saying Acker is terrible, you get 25 responses. The same thing happens in other places. A thread that says Obama is doing a good job would get 5 responses, but a thread that says Obama is a socialist would get exponentially more responses. Cest La Vie

Completely agree.
I think, too, this year's squad is not as exciting and superlative as what we had the previous 3-4 years.
Previously, we were talking about ally-oops, how many dunks, how high DJ jumped on such-and-such play. This year is fun, in that, we had low expectations, and the guys are exceeding them with grind it out tough play, heading to an NCAA berth.
In years' past, I think the board complained about all the stuff that's being complained about now. It's just the positive threads used to drown out the negative ones, more than they do now.

Or put a bundle in an old timers' depends
If MU Scoopers are being lame and nitpicking on stuff like crowd energy, etc., then that's a GOOD THING!
It means MU's continuing to win!
LONG LIVE THE LAMENESS!!!
