Re: 2017 PAC12 Tournament

Well the automatic qualifiers are the conference tournament winners, so there is that. UW has the distinction of winning the PAC outright and actually not dancing just 5 years ago. I acknowledge that, of course. The tournament winner gets the auto-bid. As for UW's distinction, I agree in a major co...

Re: 2017 PAC12 Tournament

Here we go again. Every year, when ESPN talks or throws up articles about the Pac 12 Tournament, it speaks in terms of the winner being the conference champion- that it wins the Pac 12 title/championship. And again, as always on this point, they are grossly wrong. It's a pet peeve of mine. Get it ri...

Re: 2016-2017 Arizona Basketball

I think it is conceivable that we win out and lose in finals of PAC tourney and get A 2 somewhere other than west. It's unlikely though. But it could be KU/Nova/zags as the expected 1 seeds. Ville or unc as south #1 and Oregon as west #2 if they win out and beat us in PAC final. We'd probably be th...

Re: 2016-2017 Arizona Basketball

Well, we haven't played a good game since the UCLA roadie. Sleepwalking through UW and WSU and even OSU for a good while. That UO beatdown was very predictable. Then can barely escape Stanford at home with more shittiness. And then Cal, while a solid, good team, man, we sucked. But at least W's were...

Kudos for the apology, and I guess I can agree with revisiting this, in limited fashion, (as is being done) after allowing him to say his piece. But I stand by my vote.

Pretty much concur with ODogg's review. How Greg Anthony got the lead spot on CBS is a real mystery. Over-explains and says "as we talked about" and "in terms of" incessantly. Both just wasted words. "In terms of offense, they need to shoot better." Ugh. Shut up. The Terps Len Elmore and Adrian Bra...

That damn, completely blown call in the first inning ended up costing us. Sucks to lose by 1 with tying and winning runs a base hit from scoring, and where the umpire took a run away from us.
