BU 48 ISU 78 - Final

[tornado]

Isn't 4th place better than last place. This season I would be happy with 4th place is what I guess I should have said.

Chico - you got me there -- I'm with ya on that one - I'd certainly trade where we are for 4th place (which is kinda how "some predicted it would play out" last spring - that the people who were irked about 4th place needed to get ready because they would be regretting where they find themselves this year!)



Here's a very prophetic post from just one of our many fine posters who saw this coming way last March...

If you hate losing then you better find another hobby for the next 3-4 years.

Let's hope AE Braves Fan is a bad prophet.

Perhaps guys who hate losing would be better off not posting here again for the next 3-4 years?

That way it will be easier to jump back on the bandwagon when things turn around.

If GF is ultimately replaced, will that put an end to the replays of the ongoing prophetic posts from most of the many fine posters?

They say you never want to replace the ledgend, but, replace the guy who replaced the ledgend.... Is that what it will take?

Or does the Prez have to go too to put an end to the ongoing prophetic posts?

PS Can I still be part of the very fine posters here?

I think for some, the desire to be "right" outweighs nearly everything. For what it's worth, I supported the move, yet still felt the team would struggle to win 10 games. Not everyone who felt the change needed to happen believed that winning would come immediately. As a matter of fact, I don't know anyone who believed as much.

A. GF does not need to go, but he needs to run a CLEAN program and not bring in THUGS and criminals into the program. 'Winning" is second to that!

B. Prez needs to retire and focus on beating her cancer and enjoying life!

C. And talk about prophet posts...... Predicting 1-9 starting with the Michigan game (for the next ten games)! But I would not have guessed 0-4 after those 10 games! I missed that one. But where was that line in Vegas!!!

[tornado]

but we're 1-12 so you were way off

[Air Petey]

I think we are 1-13 starting with Michigan game (Which was probably the best game we played this year)......

One post responded "I don't have a clue" while others predicted "4-6 and hopefully 6-4!"

LONG VALLEY SEASON!

You are 100% wrong here, and I think you know it. There is nobody who is happy they were right about this.
I don't know a single fan who wanted the team to be bad. Just because some predicted it, doesn't mean they wanted it this way. It's exactly the opposite, they wanted to avoid this.
OTOH, I do however, know some who wanted and cheered for Bradley to lose last year so that Jim Les would get fired. Those people are the ones in the greatest distress now, as they are having a lot of trouble rationalizing where we are and that they wanted this.

I love being right but I'd trade it any time for 23-3

I agree with you somewhat OC

why is his opinion wrong?

[Da Coach]

It's just my opinion.

[tornado]

heck lefty - nobody gets told more that their opinion is wrong than I get, yet nobody ever actually seems to offer any evidence - go figure - they've all become psychiatrists and have concluded I am mentally ill??
