Parakeet Jones

Feels like one of those days

Time to take a rubber mallet to Z's finger.

When I say down on the couch today I said to myself, "I hope Ted Valentine refs our game because I really want to watch him, not the players."

Is this the game thread or the O.G. appreciation thread?

In a disappointing season, I believe O.G. is one bright spot we all agree on.

Oh gee, O.G.

Idiot move by that guy. That That freshman for NU isn't terrible either.

Shields is one of those Jess Settles 7 year type players.

Fisch just sounded pretty pessimistic on radio preamp.

Congratulations. We just finished building and moved in right before Christmas. It's an exciting and sometimes overwhelming process to go through. As far as the game goes, nothing would surprise me. If we poop in the bed and lose, no shocker. If we play our best game of the year and win big, no surprise there either. I am looking forward to see how we play today.

I really don't believe he can. What I mean by support is pulling for him to do the impossible even when I don't think he will. Like I said, a change is needed. I also mean not posting some of the off the wall hyperbole I've seen here. I promise you I am as frustrated by the current state of affairs as anyone here. However, I get a little tired of some of these posts I see that almost come across like people think he is sitting in his office with a number two pencil and a legal pad trying to think up ways for Us to suck. He reminds me of a teacher I usesd to work with. Great guy, terrible teacher. I wouldn't want my kid to have him, but I always admired that he tried and I wanted to see him succeed. I hope that makes sense.

Describes me to a tee. I actually like him and want to see him succeed here, but realize where we are. As long as he is our coach, I will continue to pull for him to get this thing turned around even while I fear he won't. That support doesn't make me an apologist, naive, unrealistic, or stupid. A change is needed, but I will continue to treat the man with dignity until one happens.

I feel a Rutgers run coming. Ugh

We are in B1G play and playing a walk on heavy minutes. Let that sink in.

Burton with a much needed 3. That is all you need to know about today.

Even with our struggles and no JBJ today, I still expected a 15+ point win.

Can you blame them for not wanting to go to New Jersey?

Not having JBJ is no excuse for this.

We should be up by 1,000 points on this outfit.

I wonder due to his suspension earlier in the year if he and college aren't a good fit for each other. I don't mean that in a disparaging way either.

CTC just said Colin into the lineup on radio.

I was just texting a buddy about JBJ and I told him I thought we would be Better defensively. I hate to be so calloused as to say that.

No timeframe listed on JBJ. Hope he recovers quickly.

Per Fischer on radio pregame, Blackmon not out with the team warming up. He said there could be " an issue there."
