It always reminds me of Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut: My god, the board's libertarian conscience, is quoting a socialist who thought capitalism would ruin America.
Maybe a better quote would be Vonnegut's: "We are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is."

I'm starting to enjoy the board and even get a few laughs out of the hostility. But, for peats sake, its a board... I'm disappointed this year so far but we have had more than our fair share of injuries and we were playing pretty well before they occurred...not an excuse but a fact. If we don't make a deep run in the tournament I'm nearly ready to jump ship but now I don't want to cause I smell a bet with Sweep AKA Halftime.....I have murdered him on the last few predictions...so careful...he says we won't win 12 next year....I'll say 18 conservatively....closest to the pin wins....I'll bet whatever he wishes. No I said we may not win 12 next season. You are almost as bad at quoting people as 00dumbass. There is no way to make a bet without seeing the schedule or actual roster, so we can pick it back-up again next fall.

It's a little early for me to be making predictions about next year, but the 12 win bet I'll take without reservation. If he will put his money where his mouth is, if he's right about 12 wins I'll raise my donation to CVC by $1000, he does so when he is wrong, either way BSU wins.
halftime should have seen this coming. Shooting from hip as usual, he has again forgotten to draw the gun from his holster, has hit his foot.

What else would you expect from a guy who wrote mostly Science Fiction. Something based in reality ? I prefer his famous Quote "The horse jumped over the fucking fence."

With the low regard you have for our roster and our coach, does the schedule really matter that much? You're just dodging the bet as you always have done in the past.

Oh and I said we can pick it back up again in the fall, so I am not dodging anything.............................Duh my name is 00, I am a moron...................

Careful though, as usual you didn't read the kid's post, looks like the over under is 15.

Sorry, but why is Teague moving on to a better situation a dire event ? Oh yeah now I remember, because Whitford is a clown.

Part of the quote was "You say you like something, and, by God, he’ll tell you why you’re wrong to like it." He fits the definition to the letter.

I'll cover any bet up to $1000....we come closer to my 18 than Sweeps 12....15 would be a push....
I don't think anyones bolting....other than Coach IF he doesn't keep winning..
We have some pretty darn good players in the Wings like Acree and the transfer from Maryland Eastern Shore...
In my view if we win most of our remaining games and go deep in the MAC most would agree that losing 3 or 4 players most in our rotation played some havoc with or win-loss record so don't tell me Sweep projected this...no frickin way...we may still come closer to my prediction than his even with the injuries....wouldn't that be that be the shits...

You said "18 conservatively" now you just reset your offer. I kind of like the 15 over/under number, but it's still too early. "In my view if we win most of our remaining games and go deep in the MAC" Yeah and if our entire lineup suddenly started playing like NBA talent that could happen, but I wouldn't hold my breath with Whitford as coach.

"Can't we all just get along" without the personal attacks and name calling? You are beginning to sound like Trump.

The program is greatly improved at this point over when Whitford arrived.
You may want to wait and see next season before you make that claim. This team has been on a downward trajectory for the last two seasons and next year we may not win 12 games. We will be at least as good next year with redshirts, transfer, and freshman. Probably only Kraft gets red shirted.
