More drivel from AlamedaFan

Posted by USF on 7/12/2012, 2:16 pm

"While one could reasonably conjecture over the expected crowd drawn by two teams who have struggled in their own conferences (although Stanford won the NIT last year), this is still disturbing vis a vis the continued laggardly behavior of the SMC athletic department in capitalizing on the Gaels' outstanding record in recent years. What has been the SMC scheduling news so far? No St. John's, no ESPN tip-off game. We do have Harvard and Yale at Moraga, which is an upgrade over Kennesaw State and North Carolina AT&T, but hardly a sure-fire fan attraction. We're better than this, Gaels. We have a strong brand, a strong team and one of the best coaches in U.S. college hoops. USF's coach tweets a lot but is 0-for-his-career against the Gaels. And, of yeah, his starting shooting guard and starting center bolted in the off-season because...who knows, but they're gone."

He loves talking about USF transfers. Mikey Williams was a part time starter at best. But one he blathers. Real USF hater.

this guy appears to be the Gaels' version of Angie & Co. at Gonzaga, i.e. pure hatred of the Dons and all connected to USF. At least there are more good guys from the Gaels side as opposed to the folks from Spokane that present a much more unified prejuidice against us.

WOW???

Please re-read this post without Dr. Phil sensitivity hats on. This post was a challenge to SMC leadership not a slam to USF or even STAN.

Oracle venue for OOC games has been a battle cry of AlamedaFan for some time for SMC, for anyone to take this a make it a hate statement about USF is unrealistic parnoia.

It s not like SMC and USF compeat over players, if this post was posted with this intent that you mentioned it would be directed to STAN not USF.

it was directed more at Alameda Fan who has a propensity to take shots at USF. even if this was not a pure shot - he has the history. I admire the Gael program and their fan base, with that one exception.

I personally could care less about Gael fans or their rants. As to this particular topic, it seems to be a little of both. Again, who really cares what some dullard from across the bay thinks about our program.

Overall the post isn't that malicious but there is no need for the final 2 sentences.

I think your on point Jack, but you know how US fans can be about their programs.

I just hate seeing the Fire Drill on any subject or post taken in one single posting versus a Topic or Thread.

ALamedaFan and I have disagreed on this subject and maybe USF/STAN prove him right? This event gives him BIG TIME ammo

Let's allow AlamedaFan and this string to trail off into the horizon. Drivel is an apt phrase to depict his prevaricating post. Sorry Riordangael. I'm also sorry if a post looks like and smells like a Gael, it necessarily is a Gael. Not that all Gaels are bad. You're somewhat difficult to define, but your type of Gael is informed and, thus, ok in our blog.

Hey, I'm impressed that the word "prevaricating" can be used on an athletic board without the inclusion of a body part.

FYL, let's not discuss body parts. It's still a touchy subject, but recently a deteriorating one around here!

Its not like USF has a lovefest with Gonzaga. Deal with it, it's called a rivalry.

Gad, you're good Zag Fan. Whenever I read or hear "Deal with it." I perceive a true intellect. Whatever was just stated must be profound, especially if it's from a Zag! I wonder how the Jesuits deal with the phrase in the Gonzaga logic classes. Just for affect, I'm tempted to apply it here, but I won't.
