I hate this season because it's so obvious that we have no chance that I knew not to bother going yesterday. I hate that G'Town chucked up that needless 3 to rub it in. I hate that I watched KSU beat Kansas for the first time in forever and could hardly remember that emotion of basketball-related happiness because I hardly remember beating someone we hate and I can't imagine it happening soon. I hate that I love college basketball but could never get into the NBA after MJ was gone because I just wanted an SJU grad to root for (and obv. I didn't try hard enough with Artest on that one) and when it became obvious that it'd be a long time before that happened I finally gave up and latched on to Durant last year (even though I really hated him when they beat us by one when our wonderful coach couldn't draw up a play with like 15 seconds left and the ball) and even that didn't work out lol. I hate that yesterday CSTV showed our game in 1999 against Duke when we were #9 in the country and even though I was at that game I nearly died of shock from realizing we were top 10 in the last 10 years. I hate that I watched that game even though I know we lost because we got it to OT against the best team in the country with 6 players and even in defeat back then we could be proud of our effort. Most of all I hate that I watched that game and couldn't figure out why we fired Jarvis (who I hated soo much lol) for Norm who has led us straight to failure. I hate the fact that I'm even saying that because I wanted him gone for so long it was unbelievable. And maybe it was because he had Fraschilla's players at first or maybe it was because he finally found one gem in Hatten but we actually won when he was around sad to say. Maybe losing in the first round or even winning the NIT didn't seem so great then but god I just want to win again. And even though I really can't picture it getting worse than yesterday, I don't think it will get much better with Norm around. I'm glad the players go to class and do well, but give them some credit (which I'm making the assumption the administration will not do) and don't keep a losing coach around for that. This was the last game I plan to miss this year because I know deep down they are too embarassed to let that happen again. But barring the biggest miracle in a long time, Norm has got to go and very very soon.
