Besides he already gave up everything of value for Kentucky to beat the Horns in the NC game. @madden55 I’ll trade you your Serbia flag and Boskovic picture for a USD win. You have 24 hours to respond. I forgot I showed you my room when I redid it smh. I was like how did he know 😭😭

To each, I guess. Edit: I take it back. Still a super weird comment to stand by You’re the one bringing it up again. Not sure what your point is. I was giving you some light teasing about asking what a torero is when it’s a bullfighter and the Texas mascot is a Longhorn. But if you want to go there let’s go there.

You’re right I did bring it up, my bad. I forgot how cringe it was until I remembered. You don’t need my permission to ‘go there’ as you’ve said many times before to other posters, so the floor is yours if you so choose. I will say, however, refusing to see how cringe of a comment it was and doubling down multiple times over doesn’t elicit much of a ‘let’s not bring it up’ reaction from me.

Madden I’ll take another tour when you’re ready. I’ll send you a Texas flag first. You can decide where to hang it.

This is tough. I think Texas pulls through this match. However, you know who won't win? Whichever team "wants it more." Can someone ban this saying? Can we also ban "playing with a chip on their shoulder"? while I agree that UT wants this as much as USD, the shoulder chip is real. It makes teams play with a controlled anger that is a great antidote for tentativeness, and IMHO the best mental approach to a Final Four game.

I will say, however, refusing to see how cringe of a comment it was and doubling down multiple times over doesn’t elicit much of a ‘let’s not bring it up’ reaction from me. Bring it up all you want. The closest thing to an apology you'll get from me is what I've already said. I failed to recognize my audience, which I had plenty of information about to make a better decision. In all honesty, it's likely I'll make a similar mistake in the future. It was not a literal statement. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I'm not the first to make a joke about it. Plenty of people have offended others with what they thought was funny before. Plenty more will do so in the future. YOU make comments you think are funny, that said with a different audience would be considered offensive. That doesn't make your comments wrong, or something you should take back. You've just done a better job of recognizing your audience than I did in this particular instance. Again, bring it up over and over if you want. If you're concerned about me doubling down, watch me triple and quadruple down. I'm not going to be making that joke on here again, I can guarantee you that, but I'm also not close to feeling like taking it back, either. Not sure what you're attempting to accomplish here, but hopefully you feel satisfied with our exchange, and if you aren't feel free to make some more comments I can respond to about it, either now or another time.

It makes teams play with a controlled anger that is a great antidote for tentativeness, and IMHO the best mental approach to a Final Four game. I think more than anything else it's a bonding element. "Us against the world!" Which I absolutely feel like the Texas players embrace. Doesn't matter. The players still have to execute on the court, and so much of the narrative is made in retrospect. Whoever wins gets a litany of rationalizations which may or may not have any merit as to why they came out on top, whereas the losers are levied with a number of accusations as to why they weren't able to get over the hump. It's the way it is in every sport.

Frohling is an opposite. So Eggleston = Lukes (depends on the night...typically edge to Eggleston) Skinner > Edwards Phillips < Frohling O’Neal < Blackwell Caffey +/- Stoner SKT < Blossom Fleck > Benbow Akana = Allen I’m also not convinced right now I’d take Skinner over Edwards. Agree with that. At best it's a push from what I've seen this year. I just don't think Skinner is feeling confident with the setting this year.

I just don't think Skinner is feeling confident with the setting this year. She's averaging 3.62 k/s, hitting .299. I'd say it's hit and miss. Her numbers are very good. But without a doubt some matches she looks unstoppable and others not so much.

Nothing to accomplish. Like I said, I forgot how cringe it was until I remembered. Either way, when you say weird things like that people are going to roast you. Again, we all know you don’t care so it’s a wash.

Again, we all know you don’t care so it’s a wash. Honestly, I enjoy getting roasted. Not over that comment. I shouldn't have made that comment on here. But plenty of other times. It's way more fun to feel like I have a minority opinion rather than the vast majority, as long as I'm convicted about it. Plenty of more weird comments to come. Don't you worry.
