Don't worry.  The results won't matter if the mods will shut it down early.

Do overs until he gets the result he wants

You are too much.

I guess the last two staffs at MU were idiots too?

Your high school basketball pedigree clearly makes you an expert and better able to see these things. 

You should really get into coaching (or better yet a player/coach)...you could be winning NBA titles next season...all you'd have to do is draft Newbill and you'd be on your way to building a dynasty.

You really ought to think about it.

Yes I am intentionally trying to threadjack since.....this power should be used for good not evil.


Glad you posted this, Rise Against has some great music....don't always agree with their message but they have to be the smartest "mainstream" band in recognizing that they can deliver good music that is trying to say something intelligent. 

And I can't get enough metas#$t, lets keep going down the rabbit hole

Absolutely a kick a*s band.  And this is coming from an old fart who was buying LPs before many of you pups were born.  Great music is great music, anytime and any era.

I thought it would be closer than this, kind of surprising to me.

[MerrittsMustache]

I thought it would be closer than this, kind of surprising to me.

But how many people are voting for Derrick simply to spite Ners?

This is the music video mentioned earlier in the thread. Still gives me goosebumps when I watch. I openly admit that I cried the first time I watched it. It's an issue that has unfortunately impacted my life.

From a pure music perspective, I am partial to "Savior." Music video is a little odd but the song itself is just fantastic

Glow, muENG, Sultan? Any favorites?

Savior is ALWAYS in a race mix for me regardless of distance.  As is I Don't Want to Be Here Anymore.  Collapse and Audience of One are very solid as well.  Digging Tragedy + Time right now.

I want to like Hero of War but I just can't get behind it from a message standpoint(at least the way I interpret it)

And the 2 men who are paid (literally) millions of dollars to make these decisions, and who put those millions of dollars on the line every time they trot out a starting lineup for their team.  You'd know better, though.  Those idiots.

Same sh!t different day, as they say.

Two highly trained coaching staffs thought Derrick should start.   Idiots.   One of those coaching staffs has more high-major PG experience than any other coaching staff I have ever heard tell of.   Morons who fell for such things as hard work and leadership over flashy crossovers.      The small sub-set of hardcore MU fans who frequent this board should start.   Idiots.   Or clowns.   Or adversaries.   I feels sorry for those close to you.

And yes, the drummer is wearing red leather pants, and an A's jersey.

Can you and your other buddies please get a different argument.  Do head coaches ever get it wrong on player evaluations?  How many cases do you see where a veteran goes down via injury, and the younger player steps in and becomes a star and a better option?  Brett Farve?  Tom Brady?  Countless other examples.

At the end of the day last year's team GREATLY underperformed expectations, and every single change was attempted other than one.  And we missed the NIT with 3 NBA D-league caliber players.  LOL

This year we have the same faction pleading how Wojo has such a tough situation inherited, no talent, yet has a roster of 7, Top 100 guys - and people want to suggest we shouldn't be any good.  Ridiculous.

why do you constantly post about Derrick?

For the same reasons you do, except from a different perspective.

Are you *still* thinking that the point guard that recently transferred to Liberty-f*ckin'-University was the answer last year?  Unreal.

In addition to Buzz and staff feeling that Derrick is the best option at point, we now have Wojo and his staff full of PGs evaluating the talent and coming up with the same conclusion.  It's not just two head coaches.  At the end of the day, yes...the head coach makes the final decisions.  But figuring out who to play, especially as a first year head coach?  You don't think Wojo gets input from the rest of his staff on who should be playing?  I'd venture a guess that most, if not all of the current staff, feel like DeWil is the best option we've got.

The team's record speaks for itself.  As do the players stats.  Agree to disagree.  We missed the NIT last year.  It wasn't going to get worse..for the 1,000th time.  LOL.
