^^^ Yikes. I hope that was in jest, because if it wasn't it was really, really harsh. Tiger didn't really say anything that bad (dont think he "talk(ed) smack"), just that he thought it was pertinent. You can dislike the ACC if you want to, but if you dont like it you might wanna avoid reading a thread that directly references an ACC school in the title. I dont have a problem with this kind of thread because its the offseason and its interesting to see how powerhouse schools do in recruiting, and the board does not really have a ton of action (threads that havent had new posts in 2 days still remain on page one).
Also, I think the ACC hatred is unfounded most of the time. Yes, we oughta be Hoya fans and thus Big East fans primarily, but does that mean we have to HATE the ACC? Are we bad Hoya fans or disloyal if we also care about the ACC and college basketball on the whole? I really don't think so.
And you also say that
"We don't give a rip about the ACC on this site and those that do mention it--do in a mocking way."
but then go on to say:
"Geez, I'm sick of ACC bullcrap on this site"
which seems contradictory.
I predict this thread gets locked in the near future.

Gurley must be related to Helen Gurley Brown, who used to be in charge of Cosmopolitan magazine and was also the subject of the film Sex and the Single Girl starring Natalie Wood. We know that all real men love to read Cosmo, so therefore this is a relevant topic on the board.

I predict this thread gets locked in the near future. As a Hoya fan whose favorite team is in the Big East, you MUST hate the ACC. That is the requirment. Now if you cannot abide by this simple rule, then your Hoya Paranoia membership shall be revoked. Anybody who loves the ACC, Duke, Carolina fairy-blue colors but claim to be Hoya fans, needs to have their head examined. Anybody that peruses through ACC team message boards but claim to be Hoya fans, needs to have their head examined. Anybody who secretely hangs Coach K posters on their bedroom walls but claim to be Hoya fans,needs to have their head examined. You can't have it both ways. Either you are with us or against us. There is no in between. You should either bleed the blue and gray or you should spend most your energy focusing on the ACC. We can't have people in Hoya Paranoia who are confused. |

The_way, I have to say I loved the comparison and find it appropriate. I agree that you must be a fascist when it comes to GU hoops. There is no room for pukie love in the land of blue & grey.

The_Way, be careful who you call a pretzel "eater" - let's not give him credit for things he hasn't mastered yet.
