Who do you love to hate?

Rick Lamb's buttox. (he used it to back his way in from 12 feet all the way to the basket)

I would say that I hate Reggie Redbird, but they currently don't have a Reggie Redbird.

Huh? I've been to about 6 games this season and there was Reggie at each and every one of them.

Rick Lamb was an excellent player and as far as using his buttocks to back in from 12 feet, what do you think Donald Powell used to do??

I KNOW WHAT DONALD POWELL USE TO DO:

DOMINATE!!!

He was good yes and he did like Lamb. He played physical.

Having Hawkins and Manuel and Paul Wilson on hand didn't hurt Powell's ability to have room down low.

DC, Rick Lamb was a good player. I just didn't like that big fat arse of his that worked it's way in.

Bob Donewald & Gene Smithson

You know that's interesting. Nobody really bothers me anymore like they use to. Maybe I'm mellowing in my old age.
I would add JD Barnett and Randy Smithson to that list.
player from the past has to be Vandergaard-ISU

OK. First, let me say that even though I hate the following list of players, they are all very good, and many of them I wouldn't mind having on my team. That's probably part of the reason I can't stand them. Here We Go, Buckle Up.

1.Bradley.------ Are you kidding me? Lovem' All.

2.Creighton.-------
A. Anthony Tolliver--First of all, it feels like he's been there forever, he runs and dribbles goofy, he's killed us numerous times, enuff said.
B. Dana Altman----Is it me, or does this guy's pants/waist get higher every year. Its like his pants are swallowing him alive. By 2010 i'm guessing he wont even need a shirt at all. Also his substitution pattern is very annoying, a sub after every free throw shot, to try and control the tempo.

3. Indiana State
A. Jay Tunnel and Trent Wertz------ I put them in the same letter because, lets face it , they are the same person give or take an inch in sideburn length.
B.Royce Waltman-----The monopoly man minus the mustache. Yeah, i dont like him much.

4. Drake
A. Not much for me to hate on here, except the knapp center bleachers, wow, if you are over 6 ft tall, forget about it.

5. Evansville
A. Matt Webster----A Great Player, but man i cant stand this guy. On offense he barrells his way around flopping into people, setting illegal screens shooting lean in post up shots, all while never jumping higher than 2 inches. All this ads up to countless fouls on the man gaurding him (see Zach Andrews). To top it all off, after you have to endure watching all of this, he has a free throw form that makes you want to hurl.

6. Illinois State----Mike Vandegard----- I know, I know he hasn't played for them in a long time, but believe its the kind of hatred that can last a lifetime.

7. Missouri State.
A.Spencer Laurie---This guy's off arm when he dribbles is amazing. It never quits. It actually seeks out defenders to push while he is dribbling using smartbomb technology. Sometimes when they play southern illinois the arm actually gets confused and attacks spencer laurie himself because it cant depict the color change between Missouri state uniforms and Southern Ill. unis.
B. Barry Hinson----- I should hate him but i Dont, it is really confusing me.

8. Southern Illinois
A. Matt Shaw and Randall Falker----- Again, under the same letter because they are listed for the same reason. They both will travel every time they touch the ball, whether there is any defender near them or not, im serious, every time they touch the
ball, watch their feet. The more amazing part of this, it may only be called about 5% of the time. When we beat Southern the other night, on the play where Randall Falker got the 3 point play to tie the game at 46, before Shaw passed him the ball, he took 3-4 baby steps with each foot towards the 3 point line on the right wing dead in front of the ref, with no defender even pressuring him, check the tape.

9. Wichita State
B. Kyle Wilson-------Obvious reasons. Hair, the dagger he hit on us in wichita to name a few. This guy looks like the guy from Adventures in Babysitting that owned Dawsons' Garage. Enuff text wasted on Kyle Wilson.

10. Northern Iowa.
A. Eric Coleman-----I dont know, just dont like him. Cant explain it.
B. Grant Stout-----Amazes me that somebody cant figure this guy out and shut him down on the boards. Amazingly when he plays against us he becomes a prolific scorer as well.
C. Ben Jacobsen-----The old player, or the new coach, pick one, I dont like either one of them, plus its just a wierd deal, ya know.

Well, that's my list, kinda lengthy, but I didn't want to leave anyone out. Oh, and as much as I dislike these guys I'll be rooting for them in the Non Conference games.

Go BU, and Go MVC!

I have had to come back about 5 times and reread your post.

I have laughed pretty hard at some comments and had to put my faves in bold.

This is DEFINITELY a candidate for post of the year! Where have you been hiding? Great stuff.

I look forward to more posts from you.
