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?

Welcome to the board. Stay active. We want everybody's opinion,
even the ones we don't agree with. Addressing your point, there
are plenty of non-athletes who are students of the game. Lessons
come from asking questions and having discussions. Everybody is
allowed an opinion, ideally with some degree of intelligence and
evidence. That doesn't always happen.

> 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.

Geez, Chrissy, if you think the SBU fan board is bad, you should
go on Twitter. Or the great majority of sports message boards
that exist out there. This is Candy Land by comparison. Hey, I'm
pretty sure I've been fair about any criticism that I have
offered, and backed this criticism with, as I said above,
evidence and tact. If somebody doesn't do that, it's real, real
easy to dismiss. No reason to argue with someone who isn't
making sense.
I would welcome the opportunity to ask Coach P in person why he
doesn't run the high pick and roll with Jameel. Or why he uses
hockey shifts. Church isn't really the place though.

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.

Incorrect. This is a message board, not a cheerleading forum,
people. If everybody came on here and said "aw shucks" and
didn't offer an opposing opinion, well, I'm not sure what we'd
all be doing here.

What's incorrect checkmate? The way you don't care for my posts
is the same way I think some posts are weak. And please
understand that I do not need you to educate me on how a
fanboard works. Thanks for the rivoting info and trying to learn
me. I guess I'm a cheerleader based on your witty banter. So
clever.

It's obvious I am not the only one who is opinionated on this
message board Chrissy.. You have a very hard time accepting
that. Message boards are a great place for Fans to express
their concerns, thought, doubts or whatever else is on their
mind. I agree at times some people, me included, will not be so
kind to coaches who completely screw up a game or continues to
make mistakes that cost the game, but If you can't handle that
then maybe you shouldn't read them.. It's obvious You have close
ties to some coaches at SB and that's great, but maybe you
shouldn't be so defensive when some of us aren't putting the
coaches on a pedestal when they lose..... I personally
contribute a tremendous amount of $$$ to SB athletics Chrissy,
through various means... I think Mr. Heilbron is ok with my
criticism of our teams from time to time, as a matter of fact, I
know he does!!!!!

I come down on Chrissy's side, although I'll reiterate my
feeling that the coaches, athletic administration, conference
officials...are all adults and drawing a salary so in that
respect are all fair game (although I still support moderation
and constructive criticism).
Where I have a problem is over-the-line negative commentary
addressed to the student-athletes. Some people here (and it's
more than one), and on the other board have convenient amnesia
regarding comments like "horrible," "wasted scholarship," and
other pleasantries directed at individual players. IMO, we
should be better than that, especially on this board.

Im not saying you can't have an opinion.But to call players
garbage and a turnover waiting to happen or a wasted scholarship
is not a fan. Thats a frustrated person who has issues in life
for petes sake.This is a good forum to speak your mind. I get
that.But keep things in perspective. SBU is as good as they have
ever been! No matter what anyone says I know some of you guys
will just keep trashing players. Its what you do.Keep in mind it
makes you look a little desperate no matter that you say you
don't care who's feelings you hurt.lol If we don't like it stay
off the board.Thats such an original comeback! I'm sure hanging
with you and that positive attitude is a real Blast!
Anyway I love SBU and hope to see them close the deal this year.
If not I still love em.
Not 1 kid on that team has come close to any trouble and they
carry themselves with class and dignity.
I wish I could say the same for some of you!
