Sarcasm is my life. Bad sarcasm just comes across bad.

Unnecessary and unfunny

Are you serious? If so you are, you are way too serious and in need of a funny bone. I hope you are being sarcastic. Wait------- thats JB's job .. the sarcasm.

 

[SarasotaPaul]

I cannot see how whining like this help us down the road. I would think that at his stage of career, he has seen enough of everything. No matter how rightfully so, whining rarely get you more respect.

You should have stopped at " I cannot see". That part is obvious. Your whining after that caused me to lose all respect for you.

Marsh could he ever do anything wrong in your eyes?

how can you not love what he said?

Do you honestly think JB gives a s*** about any of this?

Jb might be 10 years from retirement. Hopkins might be retired before jb

Love Hop, but I would sign up for that.

JB said what he said with sarcasm, but he seemed to be having fun. He was in a rare good mood post game.

I liked what he said and I liked the way he said it.

 

[Oakland]

He didn't kill it. He said it was a 'great officiated game' or some such nonsense. He backed way off. Weak.

God damn he is the best

Its February. We were thisclose from pulling it out at Cameron, and we played well enough to win.
We're right where we need to be. Full speed ahead!!!

Has to be a replay somewhere?

As I expected JB was awesome. Can't say it enough, but even in a loss and in a season where I think our weaknesses are becoming very exposed, it is really tough to argue the fact that SU basketball gives us so much entertainment whether it's dramatic wins or entertaining pressers.

I can recall a radio host a few years back saying he's only going to remember two things about that season: 1) UF won the title, and 2) Syracuse's run in the BE tourney (think "overrated" t-shirts), and that he'll never remember who UF played in the title game. We should just be thankful as fans that we get all of his, because at the end of the day that's all sports really is, entertainment.

Why? Stupid questions deserve answers like this.

Thoughtful, intelligent post. Thanks for the perspective. Because after the emotional roller coaster ride last night, it is welcome.

JB's mood in the presser shows me he's happy and confident with this team and what they'll do in March.

I don't believe there are more than six people who saw the game who believed he was sincere with the 'great officiated game' comment. There is no way to reconcile 'worst call I've ever seen with 'great officiated game'. Particularly when he referenced the earlier block call on MG.

JB's subtle sarcasm.

Syracuse plays Maryland on Monday.”And Maryland is off today, which is interesting. I guess they do stuff like that down here.” — Boeheim

Well with an odd number of teams in the ACC, somebody HAS to have a weekend off. Just so happened SU was one such team.

Tell that to Phil Jackson, who whined his way to title after title. He was the king of jabbing refs after playoff losses. Not coincidentally, the next game always turned in his favor. :noidea:

That is what I thought. so many times you see coaches still b1tch1ng about officials during their conference. Not JB. and he has already let this game go. It's on to Maryland.

ACC considers the matter from Saturday closed. ACC official says no further action needed. Officials took care of everything on the court.

That's too bad. I think they missed an opportunity to clarify the charge calls that were made/missed in the game.

JB's going Rollie on us didn't cost them the game; the refs cost them the game when they took CJ's points off the board. Game was over at that point. JB went ballistic because the call was so blatantly inconsistent with the block against Gbinije and there was nothing he could do about it. Should have been a no-call with the game on the line. Now JB has made his statement about "Cameron reffing" and lit a fire under the team at the same time. I feel a lot better now about SU's chances against Md. and UVa.-VBOF
