As seen on the Panthers' discussion board

Did anyone else go to the Syracuse game?  That Devendorf kid is a complete douche.  He was smiling and talking smack to the students section all game.  At one point Cubillian was in his face and they were jawing back in forth.  I actually saw Cubillian hit him in the chest with a forearm.  I dont mind that kind of stuff, but if anyone deserved to do it, it was James, after that cheap shot he took last year, he should have gave em the ol Jack McDowell.  The funny thing about smack talking is it motivates the opponent, it is kind of counterproductive.  Pitt fans need to quit whining and worry about their overrated team.  We are going to lay a beating on them at the BC!

First, Rocco, watch the language.  You "obscured" one but left another.  I edited both to "smack"...

Anyhow, doesn't it strike you a little hypocritical to say James was justified but Devendorf was a douche?  I mean, both were probably taking crap from the opposing fans, but yet winning in a "hostile" arena. 

C'mon, the kids can celebrate, and if we're ok with the Marquette doing it then it's hard to complain about others.  I don't think you can have it both ways.

Sorry about the language.  I really dont care either way, I think it is stupid regardless.  I just think James was more justified, due to the stuff he had to deal with last season.  And please watch your mouth when you call someone a hypocrite.

absolutely agreed!  TC NEEDS to get the refs' ears earlier and more aggressively (per BoBo Ryan) to really be a whiner..., and I for one think he should.  MU never gets the advantage that UW has at the line, and, while I hate to emulate anything baaaajrish, we could use all the help we can get.
