Louisville Game Thread

[jmayer1]

You may have missed the last 2 Louisville games or epic fails...

So are you saying you were right, the game was over after 5 minutes? It was a stupid, reactionary, and emotional overexaggeration to a terrible, terrible first 5 minutes. It's like some of you forget how often teams make a run in basketball (especially in MU games--on both sides).

Yeah, I wondered the same thing.  Is he trying to support his argument that the game was over in the first five minutes?

all is good.  simmer down

Going back to 2003, it has become dangerous for either team to have a huge lead (outside of when Diener was hurt).

didnt work our way against Syracuse and Vandy.  We cant count on that

I'm actually quite calm. It's you and some other posters who wrote absolutely ridiculous things on the first couple pages of this thread when things obviously weren't going MU's way that really need to learn how to simmer down and be a little more rational.

Is this your first time reading the in-game threads?  There is nothing in them except bitching and moaning about everything.

In case you guys lost track, I went back through the thread and HaywardsHeroes32 won going away in the negative post contest.

Seriously this thread should either be deleted because it is an embarrassment to our fanbase or pinned as an example of what the telltale signs of irrational idiotic "fan" syndrome are.

Calm? Rational? This is all about our very deep and, for many of us, very long emotional commitment to Marquette basketball. The time to calm down and think rationally is after the game. And even that isn't easy.

No, but I guess I just got to my tipping point. Way, way too many people jump off the deep end when MU has a bad stretch of play or drops a game or two. It just gets really annoying. Of course, that's the only time a lot of people post (not HeywardHeroes or Mviale though). Easy to complain when things are going great, but a lot harder to make positive posts when things are running smooth for some reason. Maybe people are a little spolied.

Calling people out by name about in-game thread is like taking pics in vegas. not cool

Don't post stupid sh*t and you won't get called out. Saying a game is over with 35 minutes left is stupid. I'm done with this thread.

Agree 100%.  Lots of posters only show up when things are bad and are conspicuously absent when things are good.  I think it was Sultan that called them "Eeyores" in a thread a while back.  That's not a bad nickname for them, but I think Eeyore is way more upbeat and positive about his lot in life than are our negative friends.

What does that have to do with Louisville?

Just read the thread after watching the game on DVR.   Guess we haven't learned that the game is 40 minutes.

One other observation....at almost every opportunity, the cameras were on Pitino.  Does he have a special deal with ESPN?  It was kinda weird.

If you know what's going to be in the in-game threads and you know that you'll be annoyed, why read them? Or maybe put the constant complainers on mute with that handy ignore button.
