Do we really have an idiot troll trying to say Gasser is better than Blue? No honest Wisconsin fan would take Gasser over Blue at any point of their careers. Anyone saying otherwise is still just butthurt that Blue turned his back on UW to go to Marquette.

Exactly. I feel like I'm going crazy. For about an hour I was thinking, "wait maybe Gasser is better, I'm going to start digging for evidence." Then I snapped out of it and realized that any person with two eyeballs and a basic understanding of basketball could determine that their is no possible way that Gasser is better than Blue.

Edit: You don't need two eyeballs. I'm sure CO figured out Blue is better.

Did Bo lift the cap of 4 African American players for this year's team?  Looks like he's all the way up to 6...is that a new record for Bo? Any photoshopping we should be worried about?



With George Marshall leaving now, let's bring it down to 5....should make the fine folks in Madison a bit more comfortable.

Well, in their last head-to-head matchup in 2011, Blue was better than Gasser.  Done.

If you'd like a second data point, in their first matchup, Blue was also better than Gasser.  Double-Done.

So then lets look again at their cumulative numbers during the '11-12 season.

Gasser played a lot more minutes, and scored less. Gasser shot a higher percentage, but didn't get as many rebounds, assists, steals, or blocks.  Blue did turn the ball over more, but fouled less.  Per minute that year, Blue is way more effective, but slightly less efficient.

Everybody needs to stop quoting facts and stats and urging people to actually recall what they saw as obvious.

The only fact or stat that matters is win-shares.

There. Troll Boy can go back to play with his friends now.
