Ohhhh... man. What an idiot I am.
How did I even formulate those scrambled up words? New language. Sorry Jim. No more cross-promoting. I don't even really care to watch this train wreck any more let alone blog about it ("Panthers edged out by Phoenix 150-42"!! Lmao. There ain't enough yarn left to spin...
I'm shuttering my blog and everything I tried to do to promote this program. People in the Milwaukee AD I've contacted several times over the years seem about as interested in my offer of free volunteer work (sober, mind you now!) as catching the plague.
It's all politics. Always is. Everyone is out for their own and many don't care beyond their 9-5. Or 10-3. If they aren't proud and working as hard as they can, how in the world can you expect the city/fans to be proud?
Sorry to Mr. Roelke, but if he is the best we got a PG (-er... a.k.a. the new "that'll teach 'em!" Zach Holt) than I might just start watching MSOE and MATC games- at least I might see some kids who care about the opportunity they have to attend college and play ball- most on the university dime.
This basketball program is becoming (has become?) a sad joke- people have been rumbling for years. But when a former "eternal optimist" tosses out multiple incoherent drunk rants about how terrible we are... you know. It's gotten THAT bad (and you know that former optimist needs to stay away from the bottle when angry and/or inclined to type words).
My frozen corn-dog icicle view of this program stands. It's a goshdang shame how poorly this team has played/panned out. Hope Mexico was fun!!! Yesss SIR!!!
Miracles do happen... but not this season.
You know. I resisted as long as I could but I have to admit- I think a lot of you guys (maybe some gals too) were right about this program's downward trajectory. Were it not for the NIT or CBI/CIT/XYZ Tournaments, you could say (outside of the hot streak to win League in '11) we have made almost no progress since March of 2006.
Something's gotta give. I sure as heck hope it's not D-II. GO... PANTHERS?
Sorry to all I offended (probably numbers in the dozens). I am an idiot and I never obey Pantherholic's #1 Rule: "Don't post angry". Or was that Hack? Oh well. It's just a game. I take it way too seriously, but it's hard when you've seen the joy it can bring when the players and coaches actually care and prioritize accordingly.
I'll have to find another hobby, because this one- at least this season- has led me to nothing but misery and feeling like I'm wasting a whole lotta time.
Maybe 10 minutes of quality basketball in 17 games. Unbelievable.
