If you think Scoopers are bad after a loss...

"But I won't be wrong again. It was a lot easier to take when expectations were lower. Losing was acceptable because UNM had almost always lost when it really counted. You didn't have visions of greatness, only to have them dashed. After the pitiful performance UNM put up against a team that doesn't even offer scholarships, I've given up. Having all five starters back next season means nothing on a team that can just disappear like that. I'd be back to wondering when it would collapse, have a terrible game and lose to an inferior team again.

No, I've had it. I've been to my last Lobo basketball game after covering the team for much of the last 33 years.

Good-bye Lobo basketball."

That dude should be beaten with a garden hose.

These are college kids.

Obviously more a disappointed fan than a writer.  I'm sure we can all relate.

I look forward to Potrykus penning something like this after another Rose Bowl loss.

Potrykus, never. He is to infatuated with those Wisconsin handshakes.

Potrykus? Never. Which is not to say WI won't continue to choke in Bowl games. There is a line between fandom and journalism and Potrykus can't see it. It's like the first batter in a game obscures the batter's box chalk lines so he can cheat.

BTW, he wrote for Rivals...I don't think it was his full-time gig.

A writer isn't supposed to be fanatical, a writer is supposed to be objective.

The real loser is that writer.
