We have gotten into some real knockdown drag outs over the years.

It always passes.
He just needs to realize its ok to have strong opinions as long as he allows other people to have strong opinions to.

And quit taking not agreeing with him personally.

He thinks that if you disagree with him you are making some sort of personal attack.
Just not the case.

The Cajuns shot 16.7% (1-of-6) on free throws in the first half and 54.5% (12-of-22) in the second half.

It's simple, really. The Cajuns missed 15 free throws, leaving 15 points on the floor - in a five-point loss.

If you want to go deeper, the Cajuns went 5:09 without scoring after Josh Brown's 3 gave them a 54-51 lead with 6:21 left. Rice responded with a 12-0 run. The Cajuns had only one turnover during that stretch but had four missed free throws.

Based on those facts, turnovers were not the deciding factor in the loss. Not that I expect that to stop you from changing the subject again in an attempt to win some sort of argument.

Would you happen to have a link with those stats broken down as well as stats of the other games as well? TIA. Assuming this info is correct, it was all that needed to be stated to properly rebut my recollection. I didn't need the endless personal attacks from the peanut brigade to change my mind when statistical evidence would work just fine. I'll be happy to admit my error based upon this information. This is what I would refer to as becoming better informed. I didn't need the endless character assassinations for standing up for what I believe to be correct, when a little bit of lnowledge would have won the day.

Look in the mirror BWK. All I did was state an opinion based upon my experience, without a lick of personal attack. You responded by attacking my professional abilitities, of which you know nothing. If you dont want to be attacked personally then dont do it to others. Disagreeing with you does not constitute a personal attack.

I am pretty sure he went to the UL website and looked up the play by play, and did the math for you.

I'm on job right now & don't know the website & page you are referring to.

Those are the official stats. You take the time to find them yourself if you don't believe me. I have better things to do with my afternoon. Such fact-finding might actually help you in the future.

On another note, disagreeing with your observations or opinions is not a personal attack or character assassination. You've called people losers and handed out personal jabs. There's no need on my part to assassinate your character. You've already hurt your own credibility and character plenty here and on the radio. It's really pretty sad and pathetic.

In conclusion, you look like a baby when you act like a victim in all of this. Be a man and accept the fact you've brought this on yourself. And if you don't like the response you're getting here, stop reacting like a child whenever people don't pat you on the back when you share your observations. Or just keep some thoughts to yourself if your feelings are going to get hurt when they don't agree.

--------often wondered if the number of one and ones are factored in-----Is that shown in the box score???? because one would think that the FT % would be higher than the regular or 3 pt shot average----maybe not for the Cajuns----but suppose that We missed the front end of 5-10 one and one FTs----That is what??? possible 10-20 points ____ed away!!!!

Is there a GD link in your snivelling reply? I swear to God. Every time I make an attempt to find out the facts the amount of butt hurt shown by some folks is overwhelming. FWI Josh , a simple llink would have done your Marlin is the man case a lot more good. Now I don't believe your GD stats without absolute double checking. Wonder why? Look At the _______s talking about the Saints in ignorance.

BTW, how many gams did you attend for the third time?

Ever thought about getting the GD facts right BEFORE you try making a point????

The most obvious point to this thread is that Bandwagon King is a Bustle lover.

He doesn't want the facts to get in the way of a good story.

You miss the point of his posts. He likes the idea that every thread eventually becomes about him. He likes the attention. It's the same with most of his calls...although at least with Jay he finally realized a while back that those were hurting his show and now he cuts him off.

Kyle, I already answered your questions. So sorry your can't handle the truth. How ironic that you don't believe the facts but actually believe some of the silly stuff you say/write. I feel sorry for you. Perhaps try anger management? Have a great day!

Wagon boy...did you suffer some kind of severe blow to the head when you were young?



Also...you went to only TWO. Shut up!

BWK has a novel way of viewing things. Sometimes it pays off. BIG! Sometimes it doesn't pan out. Duh?

The idea of designing an offense where your passes are with your favored hand is interesting. It WOULD cut down on turnovers. IF the ball was in the right hand at the right time.

It is just impossible to implement. Your open teamamte can be anywhere at any time and you have to be able to pass the ball with whichever hand has the ball.

-------Except for shots from outside 3-5 feet----basketball is an ambidextrous sport---the better a player is with the use of both hands the better---shooting, passing, dribbling, and even defensively stealing and blocking passes!!!! Also to a great extent it is a game of kinesthetic awareness where there is a basic feel of the ball with out visual need to perform the motor skill-----Z--just think about having to look at your finger placements when taking a ride!!!! Same thing here where the ball basically becomes another part of the body!!!!

Right side, left side. It doesn't really matter. A cutter coming from the wing pick will be moving TOWARD the basket either side. If the direction is reversed, passing to someone darting to the sideline 35' from the basket doesn't accomplish much and it adds 3 bodies in the passing lane. Seriously, let that mental picture marinate a minute. With the lack of perimeter shooting this team has, cuts toward the baskets are necessary. We would see some back door pop outs for Brown when he was isolated on the weak side..... By design as Brown is the only one that could jab step and be a threat or get to hole any and every time. On another note, I don't think Brown finished well once he got in the paint. He became very timid and would sometimes put up an awkward shot or look to pass 3' from the basket.

Jumbo hit the nail on the head - this team lacked confident, competent outside shooters.

This team is a premiere defensive team, and would have been so much more successful (wins) with shooting and made Free Throws. Heck, we might have won enough games for BWK to even be a fan-cuz we know he only supports winners - because he in fact himself is a HUGE winner in his own life!

Putting all of the other idiotic drivel about whether a PG is/or should beleft handed aside, I think this program is headed in the right direction, and Marlin is definitely the man to get the job done.

Truth of the matter is I think BWK is prejudice - our PG isn't like him, if you know what i mean. BWK is a leftist - he hates lefthanders. What a chump!
