it's 6:30PM on a lousy Sunday, Holiday weekend evening, yet........

there are 116 people online at BradleyFans viewing!!

This is DOUBLE what are online at every other Valley site...so we must be doing something right.
Let them flame and attack Bradley on their own boards but it isn't going to happen here, especially after seeing the banter about "another Bradley player goes down" over on the you know what board.

I went over there to see that discussion but alls I read was 3 posts where they are basically wishing him a full recovery.....did I miss another thread? I think we must be fair here as I don't think any fanbase would gloat or be openly happy about anothers injury.

These ARE 20 year old kids and injuires **** no matter who they happen to.

Even TPguy on Valleytalk wished WE well and he NEVER mises a chance to bash BU.

I did see some flushing toilets on the isu board in regards to Egolf going down. That was pretty classy!

There was a rationale posted on here...but it was quickly deleted...can't possibly let and ISU fan make a comment that would defend anything!

RF-
this board simply seems to work best when the ISU guys stay on their own board.

Via both private messages sent to me by your most prolific posters, and via your guys' own incriminating posts on your board it has been made obvious how you really feel toward BU and the BU fans....especially those who run this board.
If that's the way you feel about us, then we don't need that kind of trolling.

I rarely see a Bradley fan go onto your board but invariably they are NOT welcomed and are ridiculed and attacked.
Reasonable posts here by ISU fans will be allowed, but if you want to come here just to flame or attack, it isn't going to be allowed.
Isn't that exactly how your board is run?

Yeah I saw that but I must not have interpreted it the same way...I just took it as his season just went down the drain....which, in a sense, is true.

Will you re-post my deleted messages and let the rest of the board see if there was any flaming or attacking? You may not like any/many of my posts, but it is because they disagree with you, and (God forbid) could possibly prove you wrong or rationalize certain things that have been said...

However, this is your board and you can run it however you like- BUT there is a HUGE difference in trolling and giving constructive criticism that happens to disagree with your thoughts and ideas... I guess if this board is to only talk about the good of BU and censor anything that could possibly from an outsiders point of view- so be it. But the great BU fans are really missing out on the whole reason behind message boards- at least IMO--- and I think it is safe to assume that it won't be the same as your opinion...

They can't re-post deleted posts...at least that's what they say..I'm not a mod so I wouldn't know first-hand...you'd have to retype it yourself

[real fan]

I thought Bradley fans was a board for Bradley fans so why would you let anybody other then a BU fan post anything; I may read things on other boards but I would never post anything as it is their board for their fans; we don"t need any of their opinions .

Deleted posts get deleted. They don't get removed and put in a recycle bin. Once deleted they are gone.

This fits in the "nit-pick-n-gotchya" of today. It's the basic old-school move of "sluff-n-duff" and "that's not what I meant". It sticks the fork in - gets an effect - hurts people who hold something emotionally dear to themselves - then the offender backs off and claims that wasn't the intent. It can be read one way or another... so the fork sticks without being "too offensive". Basically out-smarting the "nit-pick" of the "nit-pcik-and-gotchya" police.

But it is "nit-pick-n-GOTCHYA".

[isuquinndog]

bah...nevermind.

Hey Quinnie. Long time no see.

I understand how R21 and maybe others feel slighted but this is not an "Open-Line Friday" forum for negative comments especially from non-Bradley fans. I just wish everyone understood that.

I think Beamer has a VERY successful Bradley Bashing message board out there somewhere with open arms and bandwidth for all the "haters".

Good win for the Valley tonight as Drake beats New Mexico 68-62 in the Cancun Classic. Another encouraging preview of the official Valley/Mountain West Challenge beginning next year!
