The last thing this board needs is a condescending lecture from an amatuer shrink. I understand that any talk about Crean is boring and a waste of time to some. As time goes by it will recede. Insulting people by calling them jilted lovers won't speed up the process.



Just was trying to write something that packs a little punch... definitely wasn't intended to be a condescending lecture.  Haven't you noticed some similarities though?

yes i was there in NO and actually saw him before they went to the dome on the charter bus he was white literally looked like he was going to crap himself.  His panic obviously was felt by the team.  Crean always had trouble controlling his emotions typically to his teams detriment, if you are scared your team will play scared.   Same thing in St. Louis in 2002  and in Indianapolis in 2003 I watched a team more talented than their opponent play in utter fear of losing. 

Another moronic decison by Naismith was the choice of Hotels in NO  gee lets set them up in the middle of the french Quater.  Smart ...Al had his kids in the suburbs of Atlanta and many great coaches get their teams out of the hoopla. 


Hey, the thread about trying to stop threads from getting hijacked into a Tom Crean bashing thread just got hijacked into a Tom Crean bashing thread.  Awesome.

Just do what I do.  Mostly I scan the posts really quickly looking for something new and funny (pro or anti TC) and laugh at some of them. 

Then, about 2 or 3 times a year I take a crack at 2002alum for his always fawning posts about TC

Gets me through my day....

Wouldn't this thread be a violation of the rule?  ;D

The only rules I'd like people to follow are these:

Read what you like.  Ignore what you don't.

Feel free to NOT tell people how much you dislike topic XYZ.   Just move on.

Yeah, that was pretty meta.  If only [.capsLock]Mr. Hayward[./capsLock] intended it as a joke :(
