It might be hypocritical if other KU fans were scolding MU/KSU fans the other day, then made a comment like mine... I know you guys have a hard time figuring out that KU fans might take different actions or have different opinions though, so it's cool.

As far as this thread, it was kind of surprising to see comments like how Braincase was "spouting off" after making a pretty simple comment, and all I knew was that you would take my comment just as serious as his.

I'd do something light-hearted like ban eazy from this thread for 30 minutes for his response, but then I'd have to hear about it for 2 months as if I Sanduskied him in a fit of rage and butthurt.

this is so true.... and the lead of the improved d is flip.... the last 2 games he has played have been his two best defensive games that i can remember.... he is now auctually moving his feet and getting in front of the player instead of letting him go by and poking around and trying to knock the ball out

Why would people interpret that to mean that he would seriously question their effort?

Good thing you're in your home thread... no need to worry about picking up a 5th.

The home crowd was all over you, so it's only natural that I got home cooking from the mods in the Mizzou thread.

Or

"Technical fouls are part of the game. That's why every player gets two. I expect every player on my team to pick up at least one technical every game or even a second one late in the game. Otherwise, they aren't playing with enough emotion."

Your words, not mine.

I coach the kids to block shots, steal the basketball, try to draw charges. In my daughter's case, she leads her team in blocked shots, but that also leads to her getting called for other fouls relating to her defensive efforts. Also, when a player is trying to get into position to try and draw a charge - a difficult call to receive in youth sports, many refs go straight to the blocking call. Attempted steals lead to reaching in. It's part of the game. Technical fouls are to be avoided, but they happen. In the CYO league, if a player plays defense in the back court prior to the 4th quarter, they can draw a T. It's unfortunate, but sometimes all it takes is an errant pass that goes right into a players hands.

If it gives you satisfaction to exagerate my comments to ludicrous levels, I'll let it slide. I've come to expect it.

Your stupid comments stand on their own merits. Mizzou didn't play hard enough on defense in a game where they gave up 22 points at halftime, took a 35 point lead, and cleared the bench with six minutes left.
