Don't forget

Times like this I wish we where still the WARRIORS!!!
-
I have no expectations other than to enjoy the game. Go Marquette!!!
-
Buzz wearing combat boots and wiping the floor, then the players joining in. Classic way to start the season.
-
Well this is great...
-
Lol. Wow.
-
Should have played in the afternoon!
-
Wow. Overpriced tickets and now this. Hahaha
-
I wouldn't play Otule or Gardner much on a floor that slippery, with both coming off knee injuries.
-
They couldn't have had this figured out before now? Really?
-
Two words:
HEAT BAZOOKAS... keep the court above the dew point, and there are no issues.
-
It's gonna be a freaking scrimmage. Go find a gym. I thought they had a back up
-

What a train wreck. Pay $500 per ticket to watch college hoops players wipe down a floor.
-
they should play the game on the half court away from the water.
-
Might've been nice to trial the court the day before the game :-\
-
You must be an engineer, Shipwrecked
-
How did they not just set up the aircraft hold as a backup? This is a joke.
-
Call the game.....hold an open scrimmage at a local high school.....get in GREAT preseason work with the #4 team in the country and move on to the rest of a very tough nonconference schedule. The cold weather and slippery floor are just not worth it, as much as I anticipated this game...it seems foolish to play.
-
Just play in the morning, it's supposed to be a beautiful day. No point in everyone being tentative, and even worse if there's an injury. Start at 10 am, finish by noon, get the team home by 3 CST and they have a day before Sunday's game, more if you can push it back a little.
-
Just got to the cabin. Thought I was gonna miss something.
Since it is the beginning of the season.......
ND sucks. Did I mention, ND sucks?
-
Ahhhhh!!!! The pizza was ordered!!!! :(
-
Otule should not even be walking on this court much less playing basketball on it
-
Just heard at least 6 MU players are now walking around in boots and crutches...

-
We can't play till it gets to about 30 Degrees, play in the morning
-
Remember to add DVR time if recording!
-
PLAY THE GAME.
-
Freeze it and let's play hockey. We'll have to borrow a team though.
-
PLAY THE GAME.
Ah, no. Both our bigs are coming off knee injuries.
-
Why not hoist a jet and rev the afterburners? Or maybe a few fans under the seaside hoop if you prefer to go low tech. The must have a few friggin electric fans in the officer's mess.
-
Bummer. Logic dictates you play games like this in San Diego or Los Angeles \ Long Beach
-
Shoot. Darn.
-
Lets go home, I thought they could play indoors close by..
-
Undefeated!
-
Lets go home, I thought they could play indoors close by..
Probably with only advance notice that would allow the cameras, etc. to move over there.
-
Did anyone else get the feelin that Thad wanted to play?
-
Ok, I'll go there .......
Hairy WET cats ;)
-
Very strange that Matta said (something along the lines of..): "Buzz's guys kept saying [the court] wasn't good." Was that Matta's way of indicating his guys/he were willing to play?
-
Noone knew that the deck gets slippery when the temperature drops?
This seems like terrible planning by the carrier classic.
-
Now, if this thread was gore tex, the game might have gone on.
-

I thought the same thing. OSU guys were out there warming up and I didn't see any Marquette guys.

exactly. science is easy.
-
Shortest postgame thread ever?
-
Carrier classic was a bomb
-
Did anyone find out from Kenosha Warrior how this canceled game effects our seeding in the NCAA Tourney?
-
I blame NBC Sports. This wouldn't have happened if we were on ESPN.
-

He PM'd me to say it's the reason the Rockets cut Lazar.
-
Should have played in the first game. Looks better in the sunset.
-
Should of played during the day. Hit 70 today near Charlotte. College of Charleston and Citadel are right there. Too bad a plan B wasn't possible.

Citadel was Plan B, but the condensation happened during warmups.

Thad Matta...."For the best interests of the players we are not going to play the game. The condesation keeps coming back and at this early stage, Buzz and I have talked and the AD's have talked....it's probably not worth risking..uh, uh...it's not one posession it's two hours of basketball and we don't think we can keep the floor dry."
Now you can interpret his politically correct tone anyway you want.

I think it was more the fact that he only referenced what Marquette players said about the floor being bad. That made it seem like it was a politically correct jab.

How were the nachos at sensors?
-
Didn't get the impression that Thad wanted to risk it.
Would have hoped they could have just played early tomorrow morning. Would either team really be unable to beat their cupcake on Sunday if they got home 24 hours before that game started?
-

Yes. I believe he wanted to play the game. Not to mention every time they talked to motta the announcers said they're going to give it a try.
-

Thad Matta...."I don't know...They (his players) were giving us feedback and just as Buzz's player's were giving us feedback saying it's not good and you don't want to play a game where guys are not mentally into it and you know thinking about what they are saying about it (the players)....never prepared for this one."

Sucks your game got canceled. Don't see why they couldn't have moved the game to citadel right away just give it an hour to move the teams and the fans to a different venue. Maybe it wouldn't be televised anymore, but it's better than not playing at all.
-

I don't go to a bar where the owner's wife is a felon even though it is 3 blocks from my house.
-
although this was the best result for my hoyas so our game wasn't delayed.
Also I blame Larry Williams for this. ;D

Yeah I would have loved a quality opponent before Maui....ah well.
-
So do we get first dibs on playing at Ramstein next year?
-
Bummer. Logic dictates you play games like this in San Diego or Los Angeles \ Long Beach
Why, is there never condensation in LA or San Diego? Rained in LA yesterday. Cool temps. Same thing can happen in the West Coast also.
-
Was there ever a definitive answer as to why they couldn't play this at the Citadel tonight?

O'Malleys in woodbury has better nachos? Sunday?

Don't feed the beast.
-
Whatever happened to the backup gym downstairs??
-
Now I can watch Gold Rush.
-

Citadel was a rain backup. I have to imagine moving this event there would have been planned in advance, not at tip-off.
-
So there's no media coverage. Players, coaches, officials, game personnel. Anything else is a bonus.

If there's no media coverage, there is not much of a point.
-
Now to go drink with DSFire.
Stupid outdoor moisture.
-
For the players and coaches there is.
-
If Thad was so interested in playing, why weren't his coaches or players assisting in wiping down the court?
-
OSU players and coaches were really Bush League when they were just standing there.
-
It was at least cool to see Stan Van Gundy and Stacey King talk mubball during the pregame for a few minutes... did you anyone else catch that?
