Chris Mooney (9-28) - worst rivalry coach of all time

[*23*]

It's enormously high. It's as high as VCU's AD.

Now that is pretty funny. And I was under the belief that you invented the Giselle comparison on this board. I am glad to give credit. Of course it was nice in the old days on rivals, b/c as soon as we might argue over who started what saying (like mooniocrity or Jabba or something) - at least SF would get tired of it and just do a search and prove one right and one wrong. But now ON3 robbed us of that. Kind of like they tried to take away email forwards from Michael Scott.

Actually it was me ur r right. I think I had Jabba on my mind, which was not mine but I used liberally at 1 point. U r right we don't have the history that stinks but SF has done a fantastic job with this board imo!

I remember now where GISELE came from. It was actually a tweet but Dji's dad. "He can't guard all of them". It was so funny bc it came across as Gisele and her Tommy can't throw AND catch the ball. I converted to our own use case. Of course you can borrow GISELE for board use but an occasional footnote or trademark is recommended.

btw I miss a Dji level defender, as I know u do too. Is this a good time to recall that Dji was also behind Nelson and Noyes on the bench?

It is a good time to recall that. Tanner is the the new Noyes.

Losing to its City rival.

Big kudos to the Spiders' fans on here for a consistently outstanding brand of "gallows humor" no matter how frustrated I am with the outcome of a game, or state of the program, the humor here often leaves me LOL and occasionally LMAO! Keep up the good work.

Go Spiders!

So true. I still get to claim ownership of the Flying Dutchman. Ride or die.

 

[Long Time UR Fan]

Didn’t the fans try already by putting a billboard up on I95 asking for Mooney’s firing? That made the admin double down.
Maybe Soros can send some paid protesters to Hardt’s office.

I don't believe anyone on this basketball forum wants to see political statements in any basketball threads, one way or the other. Take your political statements and make them on the Off Topic Forum.

Thank you. You literally can find that in every other area of our lives. It is nice to have this board not include statements that are political in nature and keep it focused on hoops.

This is how starting/playing time decisions seem to get made:
1. Did you start last year
2. Ability to run the weave/O
3. Avoidance of turning the ball over
4. Willingness to turn tail in offensive rebounding scenarios
5-99. Not trusting your basketball instincts
100. Ability and desire to play tough defense

 

[Spiderp31]

I am not going to watch the second half. We have zero chance against Davidson. Can someone please end the demise of this program?

 

[MrTbone]

It was a bad effort.

I’m bumping this because I feel like it’s among my finest works.

Telling you to stop criticizing, shut up, then asking for a donation

I’m already dreading the return game at the RC in two weeks. I’m sure we’ll fire up a red out any day now right?
