       As a newer member on this message board I have to wonder why you
       guys repeatedly bash your own players? Be thankful for the team
       you have. This is a true MID MAJOR program.Top 25 recruits
       aren't beating the door down to get into SBU.You guys are having
       the best year ever but still thats not enough? Some of you guys
       are downright A holes. You know who you are.Usually guys who
       drag other people down are the biggest dweebs around. Its almost
       comical to hear.I can understand being disappointed in the play
       at times but come on.Show some support. And for those of you who
       get on here and act like you know anything about Basketball are
       usually the ones who couldn't make the middle school team! Lets
       keep it positive and MAYBE something good will happen and you
       can all complain about that?? I don't get it?

       Wow, you are new! But you're not alone. Basically, they can say
       whatever they want because they live in anonymity. I would love
       to see them say the same things in the parking lot, 1 on 1,
       nobody else around. But the players are all good kids and taught
       by the coaching staff to not let the yahoos get under their
       skin.

       for what it's worth, I agree with both.  everyone's allowed to
       express an opinion but I personally cringe at the posts calling
       out individuals, whether coaches or players.
       with that said, there is a gray area.  if someone has a bad
       game, how much commentary can one add?  no real answer.

       COB...I don't get too worked up about the coaches. They're big
       boys, getting paid to do a job, and have thick skins. The
       players should have thick skins as well...but after a day of
       classes, practice, lift, film, study hall...it bugs me knowing
       they're sitting in a dorm room reading crap about themselves.

       So this team and this coach win 18 in a row, longest winning
       streak in the nation. They lose one game and we are ready to get
       rid of the coach. I got news for you Hammer, the coach is not
       going anywhere. I get a real kick out of grown men who talk
       smack about people that they don't know because they lost a
       game. If you Hammer stop going to games well so be it, as they
       say the show will go on. Again dude I really have to ask you
       what it is that you do like about SB. You must be a frontrunner
       cause every time a team loses your calling for someone's head. I
       really don't know what your looking for. People are allowed to
       say what they want but consider the fact that your dogging
       coaches and athletes that none of you could ever dream to be. 18
       in a row - 1 loss, you do the math it's simple. Again I will say
       grown men who get there jollies by smack talking people on a fan
       board but yet don't have the stones to tell those people in
       person are just plain weak. Get a hobby.

       Bad loss, outplayed from the smart. Warney's stats look decent
       but that's arguably the worst game I have ever seen him play. He
       got outplayed by a couple of marginal big guys that won't sniff
       high level professional basketball- hopefully scouts will ignore
       that game but it may hurt him. Peters doesnt have a real
       creative game but it highlights how Warney struggles against
       bigger guys.
       Puriefoy had an absolutely abysmal game. Walker continues to
       play well at times and horribly at others. McGrew played well
       but he got abused by Stire.
       Bad loss, move on and beat Maine so we lock up home court. Let's
       make sure we avoid another letdown.

       There is one word in this entire thread that is questionable.
       The rest is fine and people commenting in the heat of the
       moment.  No one is calling for Coach P to be fired after losing
       for the first time in 19 games.  Don't let extreme exaggeration
       drag down your post.  You want to argue the merit of his points
       that's fine, but don't pretend to be some moral higher authority
       and tell people how they should and shouldn't communicate here.
       I also think it takes tremendous balls to tell someone to stop
       attending games.  What makes you right?

       AYes I refered to someone who openly calls for coaches heads and
       says he might stop attending. What makes your opinion right ? I
       find some commentary to be weak, never said I have higher moral
       standing than anybody else. All I'm saying is if you don't like
       it don't go watch. That's not balls, its common sense.
