Title: Things you've learned about yourself this year
Post by: Dr Rick Daris on March 03, 2018, 04:55:58 PM: 1) I physically can't bring myself to root against my cats. No matter how much I said would not like Deanwolf or Barry sweet chocolate brown, i really really like them and want them to do well.

2) I still hate tf out of oscar and would cut one of his toes or fingers off if given the oppy.

Post by: Dugout DickStone on March 03, 2018, 05:39:45 PM: Yes to that. Also, I used to be unable to skip watching the game. I can now miss a few. I bet my royals watching this summer is the same

Post by: The Big Train on March 03, 2018, 05:50:05 PM: 1. I just learned that I’ve been incorrectly using our head basketball coaches name wrong.

2. I like others used to not be able to miss a game, I was out playing golf today during our game.

3. I agree with the OP’s first and second statements.

I feel so much better. Might have to celebrate after I finish celebrating getting in the tournament without having to sweat it and playing in the Big 12 tournament with no pressure on us. Just go and play loose and see how it turns out.

Maybe but I have been impressed with the information about our tournament chances on this site. I visit a lot of other Big 12 sites and the information I saw here on quadrant wins and losses was better than what I have seen on other sites.

True. There are a lot of people out there that are pretty dumb about the new quadrant game system.

Or if he was, the situation is irredeemable now. I just can't root for the basketcats with oscar steering the ship.

I really just rough ridin' hate the guy and wish he'd never darken the doorstep of Bramlage Coliseum ever again.

It's scary how often you refer to me by my username in a statement.

But yes, I'm an average ok guy, fitness trainer in Kansas City. I get too emotional with my reactions at times, but think I'm above average in knowledge of things in CBB.

Nihilism isn't the right tack here. It's way more fun to root for the other team. Sys will give you pointers on how to enjoy this new way of watching K-State basketball if you ask him nicely.

They were cool a few years ago. Now they are finding themselves on the wrong side of the trend but are going to hang on as long as they can

And if they are really KSU basketball fans, they are missing out on some players that are fun to watch.

Yeah, this isn't true. #LIFE would like Tyler Dreiling and myself dead. Anyone who's pored an ounce of optimism over the years has been called the problem with this fanbase, etc. That's fine if you want to burn it down and all, but to say you haven't watched a single game and still take the effort out of your day to post about it on a K-state message board is funny in all kinds of ways. And by you, i'm not saying you, i'm saying brown poster Purpleoil. Most of the BID'rs have ran to hibernation until this team fails and then they'll be back out in full force.

Yeah, I mean, #LIFE is a psychopath. I'm not sure he's a #BIDer as much as he is a completely unhinged monster. Purpleoil may not be a great poster, but this was a thread for introspection, if you start going in on other dudes for being honest, then you'll get less honesty. I don't think that's what anybody wants here. And, hell, maybe I don't pay enough attention, but I haven't really gotten the vibe that #BID blames the average oscar supporter for oscar. It seems like that's above your pay grade. Everybody deals with oscar in their own way, and he's been a polarizing figure everywhere he's been, so I think it's perfectly fine to party rock when oscar wins if you're the kind of dude who can find some joy in that. You do you, homie. But, I also don't think it's "trying too hard" for those of us who can't enjoy oscar to find ways to stay engaged with Cats basketball. I fact, I think it's admirable.
