    Re: ORU at home

    You are right, missing good shots isn't any better than taking bad shots, but I'd rather them be missing good shots than taking bad shots.

        Easy guy, lets keep it civil. We aren't very good, that's for sure....that was probably the worst half of basketball in school history.

        I mentioned earlier we needed (obviously) to start better than 7-29 in the first half last time we played ORU...well...we were 3 yes THREE of 29 in half one tonight. Ouch.

          Don't need you telling me, "easy guy" and there is a big difference between saying we were bad that half and saying we are a "really bad" team.

          Me calling him an idiot is no worse than him calling them a "really bad" team. I thought it was ok to speak the truth, even if people didn't like it? Or does that only apply to bashing the team?

            Thanks. Perhaps its semantics or perhaps you are ashamed to admit where we are right now. Call me what you want, I assure you I'm no idiot. Please reply to the PM I'm about to send you.

                How can a team like ORU be so horrible from the line? I just don't understand. They'd be nearly unstoppable if they could hit some FT's.

                  Be what you are. I can't change that.

                  Facts are often hard to accept. Our RPI is 330 plus and we aren't able to score with any consistency or stop any team on a reliable basis. Take it for what its worth and ask for an improvement or ignore it and perpetuate the problem. Doesn't change the fact that I'll remain a fan supporting the university and athletic programs in voice and otherwise. Trust me, I know there is a lot more to life than athletics but this forum is primarily about just that. Put me on your ignore list if you don't like an opinion different that yours. Thats a great sign of character by the way.

                    I was thinking the same thing. Worst FT shooting team in the league according to Steve. Wouldn't expect that from the #1 team in the league.

                      Speaking the truth and calling people idiots are two completely separate things.

                          My bad. I guess I didn't realize it was okay to bash the team, but not posters. Consider me educated on that matter.

                            Posting when frustrated can get ugly. I'm not sure I can apologize because I'll do it again very soon. I've been following Jackrabbit basketball for 25 plus years and I've never had to endure so much frustration packed into one short period of time.

                              Things to be grateful for:
                              1. Our % is now in double figures.
                              2. We're hitting four times the percentage of ORU in FT's.
                              3. Our founder doesn't make embarrassing You-Tube videos
                              4. Engen is having a break-out game.
                              5. We're holding our own (4-4) in the second half.

                                Last post on the matter. Sorry you perceive it as "bashing the team". As measured against our peers we aren't performing very well. Perhaps my choice of words was to harsh. 40-17 right now. That isn't good.
