If we lose out, to we still get an NCAA bid?

I don't reserve my best efforts for you fools.

Fools.

Not your best effort. Why is this under your skin?

You folks don't know me well.  I'm a fool too.  Anybody that wastes time here is a GD fool.  I just  have a big-ol delete button on my page.  Don't messy up the COVID-19 thread.  Perhaps I'm not the one with thin skin.

Wth is up with rocky. also "a humanlung" is a goofy user name. Why not a human tibial? A human frontal cortex? Cringey and kinda sick

Rocky,

My opinion, you let subtle, but really, really obvious political comments/jabs go, as long as they are jabs at trump. 

My honest feedback is that your moderating in this thread is biased.

[HutchwasClutch]

If you're sick of watching this team, I get it. If you think the lackluster effort is disappointing, I get it. If you're just ready for the season to be over, I get it. If you want Wojo fired, I get it.

I check all these boxes.  It's got to be my least favorite MU team in my lifetime. Players and coaches both.

You must be like 4 years old then

[Ardmore Mug]

Then don't watch them... Then you won't have to make stupid comments either ! ! !

If you want to start a second COVID-19 thread where what you believe to be real facts are presented, have at it!

Smh

If you're sick of watching this team, I get it. If you think the lackluster effort is disappointing, I get it. If you're just ready for the season to be over, I get it. If you want Wojo fired, I get it.

But if you think for one millisecond this team might miss the NCAA tournament, you are either stupid, ignorant, or trolling. I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt.

Take a breath. Relax. Not everyone reads all the threads. I think this thread was started as an honest question. It does feel like we're sliding hard, and if you haven't read up on the NET rankings and potential scenarios, it does feel like a real possibility that a team losing 7 of 8 might get snubbed. Luckily for us, our first 3/4 of the season were strong enough that an ugly end to the season won't be enough to tank our changes of making the tournament.

Reporting this is unnecessary. Calling the poster stupid, ignorant, or dumb is unneeded. There are plenty of posts that fit that criteria, but this doesn't seem to be one of them.

Rocky, that was lame.

This isn't your best effort tonight.

Disagree. Rocky taking care of the trash over there. Well done.

Now just throw another 2 or 3 posters into the cheeks dumpster, it's like watching my dad post Facebook memes on here with you people.

He's inconsistent. That's all.

I don't disagree entirely, but not in that situation.

Aren't we all?

If Marquette loses out, they do not make the tournament.  A losing conference record and a long slide to end the season equals a team that does not pass the "eye test."

The NET rankings are one metric, not everything.

I don't disagree with all of his moderating. Jamie was going off the rails (again), he needed to go (as an example). My opinion, there was some blatantly political comments last night, and he was inconsistent. Jockey and a few others made very political comments.   They were called out on it, with no action by Rocky.

rocky seems to have a liberal leaning, which is fine. He appears to moderate (at least last night) with that lens. It's "his" board, so he can do what he wants.  He's just not consistent.

Edit: he did reign in 82's political commentary previously. Credit due for that.

At this point, these repetitive posts are either the result of illiteracy or stupidity. Either way, post reported.

brew taking on the added responsibility of the hall monitor(and writing about it ) on top of all his other duties must rank right up there with saving that damsel in distress eyn'er?

Really, you get to call people out as stupid or illiterate? 

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

There were also multiple personal attacks last night (well and everywhere) but the ones over there were deleted.  Probably better for everyone

If there is one thing I'm tired of it's that.

Completely agree.  These are people comprised of a committee making up this field at the end of the day. And they would know full well to take a team losing 7 of its final 8, including 3 to bottom feeders of their league, not to mention 8-11 overall conference record, they would have a lot to answer for after field is announced.  They would be roasted for doing it.

I know it isn't pleasant to think about, but the possibility cannot be discounted entirely.

Agree, the metrics say we are in, but if this run continues, who knows.

Let's just win today.

thank you for the  level headed'ness here skianth.  this is not the place to bring ones ocd sans meds and expect to get better.  gotta learn how to maintain man.  so what if something was discussed before-not everyone reads every damn one of these threads, are away for a while...whatever.  oh...and it might be in the hangin at the Al...well peace out man, ride the bus, go hug your kids, and take a break, a day or so from scoop and clear the head, help an old lady cross the street...hell, help a young lady cross the street and into your place, find another hobby, stamp collecting is coming back

Thank you.  I appreciate it. I was just asking a question, I did not intend to set people off with this thread.

You have no idea what you're talking about.
