There were a lot of predictions here after Notre Dame we wouldn't win 2 more Big East games....looks like a lot of people were very wrong.

Chicos, you bring a lot to the board but honestly your whining is just as bad if not worse than the people you criticize.

A lot?  really?  I remember one. 

I count 5....I stopped counting after that....all by people with 35 posts or less...go figure....most with less than 10.

As for whining, actually not whining at all...gloating.   ;)  Nothing I hate more then random drive by "fans" who most likely aren't fans at all, but just here to stir up the pot...note that none...and I mean NONE of them have been back since this 3 game winning streak.  Strange.   ::)

Being a fan does not mean you have to drink the kool aid.  But it also doesn't mean you have to be a complete a-hole and wallow in pity and only show up to scream the sky is falling.

I'm happy to be one (along with many others here) that thought the ledge walking was beyond belief.  I'll call it gloating, not whining.  If people don't like it, so be it.  I don't like it when people are complete donks and make it sound like losing to Louisville, UCONN and at Notre Dame is the equivalent of the Titanic going down. 

Peace..out

i second that Chicos, i enjoy when the team wins for two reasons, just for the fact that they are winning and also cuz it keeps the 'woe is us' fans off the board

It's always nice to win, especially on the road, but let's not forget...all we did tonight is blow a 23 point lead to a terrible team with virtually no fans in their stands.  High points, Mbakwe, McNeal.  You wanna' know why there's doubters among those of us who bleed blue and gold as much as you do, just watch this game.  Hopefully, they learned a lot from this and will put it to good use the rest of the way.  Go Eagles!

exactly, we were up by 23, we tried some things out a little too early and that lead dwindled, we didn't completely lock it down which we could have.

They will be back...I wouldn't be surprised if we lost 3 of the last 4...I don't think it will happen, but it easily could.  G'Town, Syracuse and Nova will all be tough and if we drop 1, 2 or 3 the folks that only love misery will be back, rest assured.

Ok, I apparently didn't keep count as well as you did, but the main 2 win prognosticator that I remember (MU NY) did come back to eat some crow. 

Here's where he said we "may" beat SHU and St. Johns "and that's it" (http://www.muscoop.com/index.php?topic=6198.msg51023#msg51023)

And here's where he came back and admitted his foolishness (http://www.muscoop.com/index.php?topic=6466.msg53188#msg53188)

So where's the beef?
