How did Marquette Get Crushed by Kansas?

[MU82]

When Heinrich was with the Bulls (his first go around) and was about to play the Heat, he was asked about playing Wade in the final four.  He noted that when MU came out wanting to run to start the game, he and his teammates' eyes widened as they could not believe it.  They knew no one could run with Kansas and was obviously the wrong strategy.  In all honesty, I was at the game (barely made it and arrived just a few minutes before the game started) and have not been able to watch a replay of the game, so I can't vouch for Heinrich's assessment.  Sounds reasonable to me as a fast-paced game truly would play to Kansas' strength and allow for such a lop-sided game.   

Hinrich played 60 of a possible 63 minutes in the Bulls' triple-OT win over Brooklyn on Saturday. 18 pts, 14 assists, 4 rebs, 4 steals.

Yes, Wade was the best player on the court in that MU-Kansas game but Hinrich was second-best by a wide margin over the next guy, who happened to be Collison, another 10-year NBA veteran. Throw in the supporting players and the coaching, and it's really quite easy to see why Kansas won that game.

Of course...they were the better team that day and probably 7 times out of 10 if they played us.  Throw in our horrific shooting, and we lost.

Like I said before, its amazing that those the berate this time and time again have NEVER said what a great job it was beating #1 Kentucky to get there.  Revealing.

Benedict Arnold was the finest field commander in the Continental Army. His treachery soiled his reputation, rightly obscuring his military accomplishments. Arnold led the Continental Army to victory at Saratoga, which convinced France to enter the war. Without Arnold the Revolution likely ends in failure. But do we honor him for his crucial role in securing victory? Absolutely not. He is correctly defined by perfidy and his place in the cavalcade of history will always be directly behind the elephants.

Well, in reality, someone did just that - on page 1, I believe. But if your persecution complex helps you sleep at night, then you may carry on.

And strangely, in Harry Potter-esque fashion (his name who shall not me named), at the Saratoga battlefield monument he is thanked for his service without mentioning his name.

He should have been Connecticut's greatest American Revolutionary figure instead he becomes the war's most reviled person.

Literally no one on planet earth has invested the time and energy to defend all things TC that Chicos has. It is his raison d'être.

I enjoy calling out hypocrisy and if there has ever been a topic of such epic douche baggery hyprocrisy by MU fans, it is with that subject.  EPIC levels.

Fidelity, loyalty, and integrity count. Treachery is a statement on character. Some people understand that.

I don't want to blame it all on 9/11, but it certainly didn't help.
