Al, I agree that we can come up with seemingly weird real-life examples. But we have to be fair and honest about that one ... Purdue was crippled at the time from the recent loss of Hummel. They were a totally different team.

Not sure how you can speak on behalf of every HD coach, dalter. I must have missed an election. I will just have to agree to disagree with your entire post. Next time please word it like this...

"That's not a problem (For every HD coach except porkpower). It's a purposeful..."

I was offering my opinion, just like you were offering yours. I didn't realize I had to qualify every single statement with, "In my opinion ..."

Let me try it out: "In my opinion ... your conference mates in Allen really seem to love you."

No way this happens, the engine is borked.

EVERY YEAR, national tournament comes, upsets happen and then someone decides to be THAT GUY and starts a thread about "real life being broken, HA I am so original!"

Thanks for being that guy

Someone had to do it. I resent you mocking my 2 min of forum glory.

Don't let it bring you down, sublightd...it might get old if HD players weren't constantly whining when their highly-rated teams are upset by scrubs. I hope someone brings is up next year. Or maybe round by round.

this is one of the bestest posts ever on this board:). a vote for sublightd's post is a vote for bringing dodge ball and competition back to the american lifestyle and a vote against all of the only childs that play this game and can't believe that they *guffaw* didn't win and get a blue ribbon.

Seriously, to ***** about this thread amidst the sea of "the engine is broken because I didn't win" threads is laughable.

Dear Real Life,

Way too many half court shots go in at the end of the half in this game.

Sincerely,
Louisville and Maryland

I love the complaining threads, but in the two (or three) tourney's I've been around here for, it still makes me smile for this thread.

Dear Real Life,

I don't like you very much anymore.

Sincerely,

Coach Pitino

"I don't think we're in KANSAS any more, Toto. . ."

Dear Real Life,

But i have 4 pros on my team and the other team doesn't have any. There is no way I can lose with that difference in talent.

Regretfully,

Coach Self
