I bet most GB fans are nice, just the ones sitting behind our sections were pricks You might be on to something..........nearly all of the ones that I have had issues with were sitting right smack behind the bench as well! ;D haha At Brown County they used to throw confetti or something the first time GB scored........surprise, surprise, it ended up all over the visitors bench. Kaygee, I am sure that you love those "fans" as much as I do. haha

Some of my best friends went to GB, the ones I know are pretty cool... ...coming into this year I believed that the UIC rivalry was more important than this one, but now I want to win tomorrow so bad I can already taste the BBQ rib sando from Goolsbys.

i'm kind of surprised by how inactive GB's d-board is. you'd think there would be a little more action the day before the big game?!
so i hope to see everyone at Turner's for the pre-game rally. i'm trying hard to spread the word. last year we had a great turn out for the UIC tourney game.

As for TJ's comments to the poor man's Coach K, who accused him of making funny faces throughout the game, I have it on good authority that TJ said, "Make me," not "Bite me." In addition, BP was furious with Demovsky for the article that appeared on the second day of Tillema's recruiting visit. His fury had very little to do with Kowalczyk. Also, we'll see next year who got the better Ryan. After all, the proof is in the pudding!

Comments from a GB fan
First of all and maybe the most important part of my entire message is that this fan board is awesome. I often come on just to see how the real fans think the Panthers are doing. Keep up the great work.
Our group happens to have season tickets in the front row just a few seats from where the visitors bench is. In fact, we sit directly behind where Rob Demovsky sits. These seats are a blast especially since the conference has coaches like Bruce Pearl. He is our favorite now that Rollie Massimino is gone. Bruce plays it exactly how he needs to. He has fun with us and he very rarely will react negatively, no matter what we say. Some coaches get ticked off and say negative stuff back. That's when we know we've got them. We almost had the Youngstown St coach crying a couple of years ago. (ok, maybe it wasn't that bad but he sure wasn't happy)
As far as the Jones/Kowalcyk issue. I can't say for sure what Kowalcyk said because we are not close enough to hear him. I can tell you that Jones did say bite me. In fact, he said it a lot more than 3 times. Quite frankly I could care a less. A good heated rivalry is good for basketball in the state.
On to the game. I've got to believe that from an athletic standpoint UWM should have the advantage. If Mccants and Tucker are on it may very well be a long day for the Phoenix. If only one is on it could be an advantage to GB. The Phoenix have been playing well and Brandon Morris seems to be playing a little better every game. The home court will be helpful for the Panthers and I am sure that many of you will be there to get crazy.
Lastly, it's a bit laughable to hear any complaining about how GB fans are a bunch of pricks. If you go back a couple of months on this board and look at some of the stuff that has been said in regards to what the student fans are going to chant at the opposing players, its hard to believe that Milwaukee fans would complain. In fact, I would think you would admire that type of behavior if in fact it did happen.
Have fun tomorrow and good luck to you. Maybe when the Panthers come up to the Resch we could meet some of you folks at The Bar on Holmgren Way. Always fun to meet crazy fans of opposing teams.

I have to agree with you pnther30...the uWGB fans are one of kind. It is one thing to be passionate about your team but to say things that I have heard their fans say as far the names the players are called especially the racial epithets is unbelievable....we are not in Alabama in the 1950s anymore!
