O/U 1.5 Posts after Marquette comfortably puts the game away
The title of this thread was so close to being "DePaul game thread". I expect a tough game, but with Marquette winning.
The post game debate whether we would be better off playing Nova or DePaul was sparked the usual suspect. As if "we" had any control over the outcome of the game. :)
The Villanova offense is putrid and hard to watch. Oso just needs to body up on Dixon and that will be a huge plus. Dixon crushed the bigs for DePaul last night. Wondering if Longino is good to play after last night.
Villanova gave MU two pretty tough games with Kolek playing so there's no reason to think this won't be a close game.
I suspect a lot of Nova's problem last night was not taking DePaul seriously after destroying them twice during the season. I don't think that will be a problem for them tonight as a win could put them into the NCAA field.
Nova obviously relies heavily on 3 point shooting and if they are hitting they will be a real problem.
Plus, we all know that it's hard (or at least harder) to beat a team for the third time in a season. The first two games were hard enough so if this one is harder, and Nova is more motivated, MU could be in big trouble.
DePaul did a nice job on Armstrong last night.
Dixon's pick and pop kept them in it. I don't know if he'll get as many good looks with MU's switching.

Dixon played a lot outside. Even Rafferty said on numerous occasions, they need to go to Dixon inside. He was 2 for 11 from three before hitting that key three. He was open because Depaul doubled and the doubler passed it back to him. MU does that a lot and can't do it tonight too much because Nova loves the three ball. It is at times MU's defense achilles heal.
Must keep that Hausen guy from hitting the three. He has not scored in past two games and don't want a player going off, because Hausen when hot is dangerous.
With Kolek out, suspect Nova starts going inside to get Oso in foul trouble. Nova probably one man down with a key sub, Longino who hurt his knee last night. No knowledge if he is out, but did not look good. If out, Hausen I presume starts.
So, no foul trouble from Oso, keep Hausen and Armstrong from going off from three and limit fouls because Nova hits those free throws. Piece of cake.......
Anytime you can beat Nova it is a feather in the cap.
MU will be motivated tonight.

They made 14 in Milwaukee and 11 in Philly. If they go to the line that is where it could make a difference; they just don't miss FTs.

They are number 1 in the country at FT%...but even they miss 18.5% of their free throws.
Four of the teams MU is competing closely with on the seed list (Iowa State, Baylor, Creighton, and Duke) are all in action tonight.
MU at -4 is the narrowest favorite of the 5 teams. The others are all favored by between 7 and 11 points.
One 5 point win vs them one 13 point win vs them. With Kolek. This will be a battle tonight. We can't let them in the Bonus because they are too good at the line. Will be interesting to see if we have a different strategy for their three point shooting. If they are hitting so we stick with the shooters and not switch?
Will be a tough one. If it comes down to coaching decisions, we shou"d win that war. Go Marquette!
Let's go now!!
Let's take care of business and lock down a 2 seed.
What a great opportunity for these student athletes tonight. Playing at MSG and representing your family and university. Here's hoping both teams play hard and have fun tonight. There maybe a loser tonight but if you play fair and try hard, you're never a loser

Chase really needed that, see if he can get going now
Jittery start. Nice to be up 5-4 after that first round.
Can always count on stevie to show up
Great start kid
Nova looks like they have tired legs.
Let's go now! A bit of a jittery start. Move the basketball and get Oso some touches.
Have to hit the layups. Great work getting to the rim. Good D so far. Need to take advantage!

To be expected after a high-level game against powerhouse DePaul.
Good to not be playing kolek. These refs are reffing a game of rugby.
Nova with a burst of energy fueled by excitement will hit the wall of reality
Jop!!!
Great pass from Kam there.
Didnt need that 3 from Stevie.
8-0 Nova run
Get Oso involved.
Oso gotta get aggressive
100% FT shooting!!
make this dude drive.
I see 13's shooting form and I think, let him shoot. But of course he's made both
Just horrendous offense
Starting to think Muggs is NLW's inside man.
Wanting to face this Nova D instead of Depaul
Ugh, the offense is...not good
Oso way too passive with no Kam
Offence has been a horror show
Huge problem is no one can get past their guy off the dribble..
Tie game with 2 points out of Oso and Kam.
Time for those guys to get more aggressive.

yeah, he starts the shot from below his waist, but of course both ended up pure
Maybe that triple wakes us up. Oso with zero FGA's?
Very lucky to be tied right now, we are not getting any good looks in the paint whatsoever. Has to run through Oso
We look gassed.
Just hang tough, keep moving on offense, close out the threes better, wear them out
Atrocious offense again. If they can settle and stop jacking threes, I think they'll be fine. Much faster than Nova, just gotta cut and convert. Great defense so far, keeping us in it

Hes not a good shooter this year or for his career so your eyes are correct
Just a classic rando making them against us.
Tho to be fair a few better shooters for them have missed open ones
Not sure what Kam's plan was there
Kam with some dimes
Problem is he cant pass to himself our clear best shooter...

I thought he was calling Oso for double dribble. Didn't see the foul. I'll take it
Looks like the refs have decided it takes 3 fouls before they are going to call one.
Not enough talk about how good Dung Stevie has been at the rim this season.
They're keeping us out of the paint.

Man some of the threes are flat out awful.
I've never been so certain a Jop 3 was going to miss
JFC Jop
Dude is F'ing lost
Hell of a play out of a time out and he shoots like hes Rudy Gobert
Ugh this game sucks man
What in the W was that out of a time-out?
joplin has continued his fine form
Seriously Jop make the fu cking shot. Youre wide goddamn open every time
One thing you can never accuse Marquette of is playing their best when the lights are the brightest.
Kam and Oso just refusing to shoot/score?!
Gus is bad.

Brutal basketball all around. Woof
Absolutely no rhythm for either team. Bricky city, air balls by both teams.
I love our team and I love the Big East, but this game is just dogshit so far.
Looked to me like Kam got bumped and Oso sure as heck got smoked trying to rebound the miss
Oso looked concussed when he was slammed in to, but ran up the court
Is it just me or does it seem like Villanova didn't even scout DePaul and their whole plan was to be ready for this game?

Both teams playing tough D
Would be good to see the team get Gold a look - think he's touched the ball 1 time in the halfcourt set so far.
Kam isn't going to be able to go 40 and be effective - need to get him some spot rest.
Would be happy to see a little more Tre Norman.

Nova just making it a point to force us to have Stevie shoot out of rhythm 3s.

Ughhh. Kam can't pick up that foul after kicking it away.
So assistant coaches can walk 8ft on to the court to help players up?

That half was not nice on the eyes. Minimal contributions from Kam and Oso and Marquette is down one. Lock in for the final 20 minutes and take care of business.

Yes. Very disappointing 1H. Oso with zero pts and 2 shots.
Nova sucks ... and has not played that well
Yet ... Oso and Kam are doing ZIP
THank GOD Kolek will be back, cuz otherwise the ceiling for this team is one win in NCAA
just another terrible half of basketball. this team better hope to god kolek can come back. this does not even look close like a championship team right now
joplin.....terrible
jones....did nothing to prove he should be all conference

Second half Im ok with a few Kam chucks
Step back and let it fly, live with the results
Its better than most of these guys shooting squared up
Guess game plan by both coaches are let's jack up threes and see who makes the most. Just about even.
Oso took two shots, last one with two seconds. Two shots.
Have to say, know missing Kolek, but that could have been worst half of basketball seen all year. Both teams.
One team gonna wake up in second half.
Will forgive that half. MSG, getting used to it....but they should win second half by double digits.
Ugly offense.
Oso had his worst half of the season. He's not making Dixon work at all.
Hopefully, Shaka and Nevada can come up with some adjustments. Nova doing a good job of making the poorer shooters take 3s.
Either Villanova is elite on D or we'll need a PG next year.

How do we free up Oso I. The se one half? Need to make better shot selections and move the ball to the open guy like Tre to Gold. We can win this game making better half time adjustments. Gooo Marquette!
Kam and Oso just need to play their game and stop thinking so much and we should be fine.
Guard play ain't great. No pick n roll, no slips. Oso needs to assert himself defensively since he isn't contributing offensively

Mentioned it earlier, but I legit feel our squad is a little gassed. Oso has looked sluggish from the tip. Our rotations weren't great early (they were late), and we just seem a 1/4 step slower than usual. As a result, while I hope we win - I won't be terribly upset if we lose.

Why are we so much more gassed than nova? They played DePaul 24 hours ago. Dixon played the whole second half. Marquette played 5 days ago. First game in 5 days and the team is just burnt out? Just hate this excuse most of the time.

I'm in the same boat. We definitely aren't playing this like a do or die game. No injuries and it's a win for me. (I'd obviously love to win though)

I think our defense has been pretty solid. We don't seem to have a plan on O. Credit Nova to a certain extent, but MU seems to be lacking intensity on that end.
U-G-L-Y
Hoping for some serious half time adjustments. Boys looked tired, or something.

Mentioned it earlier, but I legit feel our squad is a little gassed. Oso has looked sluggish from the tip. Our rotations weren't great early (they were late), and we just seem a 1/4 step slower than usual. As a result, while I hope we win - I won't be terribly upset if we lose.
Nova is gassed. They played last night, lost their best sub and even played Archie II in first half.
Just MU on offense terrible, no rim missed threes, throwing ball in stands, losing dribble then picking up second foul (Kam), etc. Hopefully Shaka read them riot act.

i don't buy it, lots of teams have short rotations and have played a whole season with them. nova played 24 hours ago.
Quote from: Johnny B on March 14, 2024, 09:43:03 PM
Why are we so much more gassed than nova? They played DePaul 24 hours ago. Dixon played the whole second half. Marquette played 5 days ago. First game in 5 days and the team is just burnt out? Just hate this excuse most of the time.
Fair question. We are undersized at virtually every position, every game, all year long. The wear and tear and mileage incurred to play as hard as we do, racks up and I feel affects our team more than others. I think we saw Creighton also look a bit gassed tonight. They too aren't a very physical team.
MU does not have one player with a midrange jump shot so if you take away drives that leaves only 3 point shots and a 6th grade team I watch shoots better then Jop and Chase, Stevie not much better
Ya'll only blame falls on Mugs

If Nova is gassed then MU is in a coma because Nova has done everything better that this title contending team.

😂😂😂 yes I'm the one to feel sorry for. I just have to say something like "Marquette plays its worst when the lights are bright" and some of you just fall to pieces. Like you're seriously doing a full psychological profile. VBMG gets so worked up he exposes he predilection for baby penises. I think someone has to examine their lives but not sure I'm the one.
Wut.

Wed be up 57 on Depaul
MU has had some time to work on playing without Kolek, but the opponents have also have had time to prepare for defenses for it, and they seem to have figured something out.
I'm guessing Nova spent a lot more time this week preparing for Marquette than for DePaul.
Theres Shaka

No T for sure. I don't think they can call a common foul either.
Quote from: Johnny B on March 14, 2024, 09:53:06 PM

Cant. Clearly not flagrant and you cant go to monitor to call normal foul
This possession still under protest
Absolutely ridiculous they missed that out of bounds call. Totally inexcusable.
Free 2 pts for Nova
If I were a ref and someone jerked their head like that, the last call I would make would be a foul for them
Stevie wow
Stevie is just unreal.
Dung dat dude
Fing Stevie!
Love Stevie.
Shaka had a talk with the guys.
Man.....Chase needs to finish that. Let's go now! Keep attacking.
F1? Pushed Chase's legs from behind while he was airborne. No play on the ball. Very dangerous.
Dream start, Jop giving effort
stevie making the hustle plays on offense, probably best thing we have gotten going
Stevie in excellent mode

If you look at the replay. Baseline ref put his hands up. Signaling his view of the ball was blocked.
Chase has been wack at the line lately
Catch the ball!
Stevie only fouls with his face against your elbow
Oso WHY NOT ATTACK HIM?!!
Why Jop???
Jop forces. Another brick.
Nova drills tranistion 3.
Dude is pure nightmare fuel right now

Off the bench to immediately hitting a 3. Tough

Agreed - so many chances to blow this open.
Feel like Marquette gonna go on a 15-2 run soon but I'm also pretty high
Gotta grab these boards boys
Be yourself kam! There ya go
Please get Jop off the the fu cking court
This is pathetic
See Shaka grab Jop and move him!!
Kam the new TK
Cant buy a call on drives
WTF???? We cannot get a foul at the rim.
The amount of contact Kam and Jop took and no foul? Good grief.
Nice to see the refs screw Kam on both ends. At least they're consistent! ::)
Another rough one for Jop
We need him - need to keep his confidence up.
He misses TK more than anyone.
Quote from: Fred Garvin on March 14, 2024, 10:09:56 PM

I mean that sums it up
Guy is beyond lost
Kam was never going to get the charge after barking on the other end. Prick ref even stared him down to make his point.
jop has to sit rest of game...dude just doesn't have it right now. gold has surpassed him
we just don't seem to get any breaks from refs...like ever.
Whoooo this is a completely different team this half, come on boys!! Love the energy
Needed that TV TO
Sigh. Another game where the refs are just consistently bad.

The foul on Kam was the right call. He jumped in late. I hate when they give charges like that
But never should have happened cause Kam was hammered on his drive and should be shooting 2.
I'm back to hating it when Jop drives.

Yeah by that standard, there are 2-3 fouls on Villanova every time we drive.
Good grief. And they call that one on Ben?? Fk.
Line is 4.5 got to keep it close
He won't do it because of the score but a T from Shaka may not be the worst thing
Armstrong was just as shocked as us that he was called for that foul
Looks like we're in for a long 10 minutes. Refs need some air time.
are you serious reviewing that???????? just embarrassing
Oso has to score the ball now.
Jop. My prayers have been answered.
That's your game Jop!!
Did Bamba just punch Stevie out of bounds?
Stevie got lit up.
Glad Oso didn't hit his head there.
Tre. WTF.
Can we use Oso injured as a excuse for a new free throw shooter on this 1 and 1?
This game is getting ridiculous with the contact
Quote from: MUEng92 on March 14, 2024, 10:18:56 PM
Did Bamba just punch Stevie out of bounds?
Not sure about punched, but it certainly looked like a foul. Right in front of the ref too.
Mitchell was actually tackled on the previous play.
Dixon just getting whatever he wants out there. Come on boys, take him away, this is ours

Need a time-out.
This Nova team barely beat DePaul. We should blow them out of The Garden. This is pathetic.
Feeling nova just won't miss the rest of the game.
9 point lead gone by dumb basketball and Oso looking like hed rather be in the G league.
Time to wake back up. Go back through Kam. Tre stop shooting.

Up 9, 8, can't increase lead. Always a miss layup, stupid turnover and now a stupid three attempt by Norman. Drives you nuts....Nova gets scores, MU not.
Oso still scoreless and Joplin was 1 for 8 before that three. Gonna need them down stretch.
And a miss front end and the big lead. Shame.

MU looking shell-shocked right now. They don't know what just happened. Damn we miss Kolek, completely different team.
Oso, is quite literally on the take
Oh poor Dixon was bumped

finally someone converts some free throws
Wtf Chase. Great move and then total biff

He used to be good, didn't he? He's got a real crotchety old man vibe these days.
Oso even on his good days is blah at convertin and 1s so knew that wasnt going in.
But hes got 2 free throws coming now.
Odds he gets on the scoreboard?
Well, now would be a good time for Oso to get in the scoring column.
Quote from: MUEng92 on March 14, 2024, 10:34:27 PM

Yep..that guy can light us up in the midrange. Shaka needs to get Gold back in the game. Kam and Stevie are only guys seemingly capable of getting a bucket.
Big Chase fan but finishing through contact has gotta be a focus this off-season with how explosive he is.

I don't mind Gus except for that weird troll laugh hes been doing in recent years
Lay off Gus. Went to high school with him - great guy and one of the nicest people you'd meet.
Glad we'll be in the double bonus.
Chase needs to learn how to slow down and play more under control on the downhill drive.
Someone is going to have to make a play or two besides Kam to close. Oso must focus here.
I keep watching the play where Bamba crushes Stevie and I can't believe he's still playing in this game. Is it possible to be suspended for something a ref didn't call as a foul?
Quote from: Uncle Rico on March 14, 2024, 10:35:57 PM

Agreed, a little too much ego maybe. I think what made him fun to listen to when he was younger was that the enthusiasm really seemed genuine. You don't feel that as much these days.
Oso!!
Let's go now!!

MU made run with him on bench with 4 fouls. Things changed since he came back in. That Ross missed layup really hurt momentum.
And now a foul on three pointer by Joplin, who has been completely out of it.

Saw that. Certainly looked like a foul.
The way this is being reffed, I'm good with us losing this game. They're gonna get someone hurt
Remember the free 2 points the refs gave Nova. That still sucks
Shaka leaving Jop in the game is malpractice
Jop is just a joke. I cannot believe we are letting this guy lose the game.
Seriously Jop????
Send Jop to play for DePaul
I hate it when Jop drives.
Fuc k David Joplin holy s hit
Ben in and Jop out
This is fu cking insanity
Gold over Jop
Keep the ball out of Joplins's hands

Surprised BG hasn't played more. Jop is maddening
Time for Kolek to pull a Willis Reed at MSG.
They will double Kam. Insert Benny?
Great game. Wish we were up by 20....but exciting!!!
GO MARQUETTE!!
Played like crap tonight and all square with 1 minute left. Let's go steal this
Nova had the will to win, we just couldn't overcome it . Hate to lose this one like this.
I'm not confident they'll score
Thats the disaster we drew up?
That's what you come up with?
Man..big Shaka fan but there is zero reason why Gold should have been on the bench...they are dying out there for offense and Gold can help give that lift.
Not Shakas finest
Jop is so bad.
Oso refused to even give it to him when we got stuck
Why is he out there??
They denied Kam and out of desire to not get it to Jop it was over
No, that's not what we drew up. VU defended the play well.

Quote from: MUEng92 on March 14, 2024, 10:50:18 PM
When was the last time MU got a shot off on a play like this? 2010?
hauser Creighton?
Don't do anything stupid here. Inbounding out of the corner a stolen pass is a risk. Just be sure to get it in.
Welp no BG, so how about Stevie
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on March 14, 2024, 10:47:43 PM
Thats the disaster we drew up?
Crazy last two offensive possessions
It has been a while since MU had a buzzer beater. Let's do it.
No better time for Oso's first 3?
wojo was good at out of timeouts but nothing else
There's nobody to shoot this besides Kam,and he probably won't touch it
I never get why coaches don't try to throw it up the floor and call an immediate timeout in this situation to inbound further up the court.

Good point Blue.
Oso first career 3?
Great play. BG time now?
Ok good ass play.
Now draw up a winner.
Nice.
Very nicely executed there!
good move there by shaka
Jop is going to make it, cause he's maddening
Smart play. Get a bucket and get out before someone gets hurt.
LOL nvm Shaka just did it.. thank god now we've got a shot!
I'm intrigued...
Love that strategy.
Think it's going to be Chase
Does it count?!?!
WOW. OSO AND KAM!!!!!
OH HELL YES
Shaka was brilliant! WOW!
C'mon!!!
Helluva play
DUDE!!!!
Wow that is close.
KABOOM!!! That was absolutely beautiful!!
Bananas
Might be coming back.
Oh that was closer than I thought. I'm on edge
Just out.
Looks like he got it off with about 0.05 left lol
tie goest to the call on the floor?
That's good but these refs....
Omg might be on his finger nail
Incliclusive
Best guess would be no good but I don't know if that can be overturned.
They can't overturn that.
I think it's out.
i have no confidence in refs calling this good......but i think it might've been barely
BULLSHIT!
Of course
Lol this is such bullshít
These refs are a fucking joke.
No basket
What a pile of bullsh#t.
Honestly could go either way fml
Sweet Jesus.
Breeding deserves to be disemboweled on the streets of NYC
are you kidding me???????? this tournament is fucking embarrassing
I think that's the right call.
If it was nova we'd all be screaming it was in his hand
#eastcoastbias
Right call.
Let's beat these guys
Total east coast bias.
Let's blow them out now.
MU got hosed
That's bullshit.
Kam, Breeding just took it from you. Take it back
Quote from: Johnny B on March 14, 2024, 10:59:03 PM

Brutal and expected
Time for Oso to show up and take us home.
MU should file a formal protest with the league. Keep getting fuckd by the refs over and over and over. Missed an F2 on Nova. Missed an obvious out of bounds. Missed numerous other fouls. Turned over winning shot without conclusive evidence. Fking joke
Yep, so much better playing Vill vs DePaul,
NOT!
Mental midget
Roll em in OT.
Total BS.
Who gives a fck what the right call was - too close to overturn, to say nothing of the points we were cost.
Nova will be energized now , and should easily win in overtime. Sucks for our guys to lose this way.

If you're being honest that you actually went to Marquette, I'm sorry your experience was so miserable that you find it necessary to come on here and actively root against your school.
On the bright side, when Marquette loses you can all complain about that call rather than focusing on Marquette's poor play.
Quote from: WolfganghisKhan on March 14, 2024, 10:59:01 PM
I think that's the right call.
It might be. It might not be. It's so close it's impossible to tell.
Which is why it has to stay as called. To definitively say it was a violation is beyond ridiculous. That should have not been overturned regardless of what the call on the court was.
Shame on them.
Jop!!!

I'm sorry, stating a fact is rooting against my alma mater? I loved my years at Marquette. Not my fault they are playing so poorly. Direct your anger where it should be.
Let's go
Jop!!!!!
Gotta stop fouling.
Jop gets some good will
THen gets cocky
we can't play d without fouling right now
Gus really wants Oso to pick up his 4th, apparently.

This right here...
We are entitled to punch one player in the face, nice to have in our back pocket
Here's an idea, just foul them each possession. Thats four for four in OT. Maybe they miss one.... Crazy ugly
But Kam wasn't fouled
Refs taking over like crazy.
We just keep fouling every possession
Oso has the yips
Yikes with these foul calls
They have called a foul on every one of our defensive possessions in OT...and Kam goes to the bucket just now and no call
These refs suck.
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on March 14, 2024, 11:05:52 PM

yup. They're tired, fading...
This is the best the BET can do with refs?
Why even let nova dribble. Just let them go to the line automatically when they have it
Oso has to look to score there. Frustrating to watch. 4 fouls for us in OT.
Big shot Chase
You have to be self aware on that fast break
Omg.
These FTs matta
Was that a goaltend?
Focus Jop!!!
Shaka showed Jop this game thread after regulation for motivation.

I'm told you don't need irrefutable evidence to overturn these things
Well it was the same contact on the hand that Jop got called for on the 3pt shot earlier
Jop at the line. Classic
Here we go again
That was a clear foul by Dixon on the 2 on 1 with Jop.
T up Nova
Kam was fouled!!
LOL..this will be great if they don't overturn this one..
I've never seen a coach go that far out on a court during play
Tipped??? Absolutely.
Definitely deflected. So I expect them to give it to Nova anyway.
These refs are legit insane
They are doing all they can to call it for Nova. How do they not think that was tipped.
Better get this call
10 second review here, please.
How Neptune isn't T'd up....wtf
yes, tipped
His fingers bent back by themselves
How on earth do the refs miss that originally?

Yeah that should have been overturned.
Lmao of course he hits that. Lfg
So so happy we are going to end their season.
Does this count as two wins?
Oso!!!!
Yes!!!
Screw you Breeding, you failed at your task
Woulda been a way more fun win if they just kept the original call.
But we won as we deserved.
Great overtime. I have no idea who the stud of this game is.
WE ARE
Oso getting it done when it counts
Sure it was ugly. But we are better than them and we won!! Done.
Some loud chants today from the MU faithful, nice work.
if this is the way this tournament will be officiated then no sense playing kolek imo
Love the We Are Marquette chants
Excellent Win from the potential darkness

Uhh, not sure if you wanted to run the Shaka timeout play there, Kyle.
Seriously Neptune????
Wow!!! What a win by these guys, holy damn. This is not good for my heart health :)
A win is a win!
Eat a d*ck Fartley.

Got screwed at the end of regulation IMO. What a great play design though. Shaka can coach.

Did anyone see if the clock started on time when Kam's game winner was waved off? That looked quick to me. I think we had 2.3?

I don't know. In real-time I didn't think it was close to being off in time. I think the pass being a little high had Oso holding the ball a tick too long.
In general, a great play and I thought well executed. I still think he got it off. In the tourney I could see a team crashing on Kam and leaving the 3 open.

Unless the refs had different views than what we were seeing, it would be hard to overturn the call on the court. But they did. But we won anyway. Good point n when they started the clock on the Oso touch. Not sure

Line was Marquette -4.5. Won by 6. Your lack of any understanding as to what "far inferior" means is mind numbing.
Shut this garbage down
TO EVERYONE ON THIS BOARD:
That guy Farley has every right to state his opinion, just as you guys. Even though he is antagonistic.
But here's the solution, DON"T RESPOND TO HIS POSTS. Just let him yack and no response, read if you want or just ignore. The bantering ties up the thread with useless back and forth, and don't take it seriously It has been suggested before on ignoring, just make it happen.

They aren't as smart as you. They're so easily annoyed that they can't help themselves. Any slight criticism of the team and the fragile egos of VBMG and these others just shatter.
Farley will likely be on ambulance chasing duties the next couple of nights and should be MIA on scoop. I'll miss him, but I'm in the minority.

How was the meeting? Baby penises everywhere?
Imagine how mentally disturbed someone has to be to keeping posting graphic and bizarre thoughts in posts that aren't addressing him directly. Probably because he's never felt the voluntary touch of a woman and is extremely frustrated.

I wonder where my kids came from. Just remember, you were the one who made the continual baby penis comments. I'm just reminding you of your perverse obsession. Funny how since called out on it you've kept that one to yourself. As if you might have realized what a weird you were being.

I agree. VBMG should have been banned last year as soon as I pointed out his childish and bizarre personal attacks on other posters. It's a pattern and it's never been dealt with. No one else on this board does that. Good call my friend.
Sounds like one of our valued posters needs to be investigated for kidnapping considering it's unfathomable a woman would voluntarily decide to procreate with him.
With that being said, Stevie's contributions continue to impress. For those worried about next season, he's going to be a beast.

@rocky
My first account was banned because I asked what happened in a game I missed due to a chemistry class....
How do people like Farley not get the hammer?
Because @rocky sees the truth. I come, I post about MU like everyone else. It's often negative because they are playing like crap, and VBMG and a few others start attacking. I never start, I only respond. The one guy who said just ignore it and don't respond is correct. I have as much right to post my opinions on games as anyone else. Yet in the "troll." VBMG personally attacks people continually when he doesn't like what they are saying. If anyone should be banned it's that clown.
The only "right" that anyone has to post here are the rights that the moderators give us.
