Win or Lose: It's Wisconsin's Doing

[jwinslow]

Just to be clear, my distaste for your broken record about letting other teams have success has nothing to do with my commentary about the 07 exchange. Looking back, I do recall a few 07 interactions (I didn't earlier).

I admit that was a petty sarcastic comment by me about coming back.

The only person between the two of us who shown the tendency to express self serving opinions, is you.

I care about it disproportionately more when it happens with Wisconsin, which is natural because I'm a Badgers' fan and 98% of my sports posts here pertain in some way to UW.

One of these things doesn't fit with the other. Constantly making losses about what your team didn't do is the definition of self-serving.

You can't show bias from me unless I contradicted myself by saying Wisconsin deserves all the credit for making a sizable comeback and it was not to the discredit of the other team for changing strategy. Can you show me where I've said that?

When was the last time a team came back on Wisconsin and they didn't allow it? It's the constant denigration of the other team's role in it that is aggravating.

See below for your example.

This all because I had the foresight to CORRECTLY predict, based on tendency, that Wisconsin would blow a lead against OSU in last year's Big Ten Tournament, which somehow when it came to fruition sapped the enjoyment out of the win for you.

When you moan constantly about how your team loves to blow it, it's not remotely impressive or worthy of self-promotion when it actually comes to fruition, yet he reward yourself with that frequently.

Hey, if me showing some foresight and consistently expressing a philosophy about the logical strategy in sport cheapens the enjoyment for you, just because it doesn't happen to benefit you in an individual situation, that's not my fault, it's yours.

Our fans complain all the time that Tressel keeps them in the ballgame. The constant harping is neither wise nor productive in the course of a game thread. It's complaining and self-centered.

You want an example of bias and contradiction in your penchant for 'X gave away the ______' ? Try the first post in this thread, split from the Minny-Wisc FB game.

Minny needs to quit trying to strip the ball and just tackle. They are letting Wisconsin get a few extra yards each time they try to force the fumble.

Letting, or is John Clay making them look stupid? The fact is the latter occurred. He's dominated every drive he's been afforded the football.

Of course John Clay is a beast and picks up extra yardage. Another obvious factor is that trying to strip the ball typically yields extra yardage than simply wrapping up. Then there's the doozy where you declare your opinion a fact.

I'd say the above post is quite inconsistent with the balanced perspective you boast about.

Bernini, jwinslow just sent me a PM that said your mother was a whore.

My bad. I just got done fucking your mother and wanted you to know she's a whore, but I was signed on to the wrong screen name at the time.

I was gonna fuck his mother also, but I don't have time to wait in that line.

Technically, it's not a line. She said she likes to be covered in it. Seems rather gross to me.

edit: I can't lie, I left because I was worried I wouldn't get the timing right.

Think again, muchacho.

Coming into the game, Wisconsin was ranked 18th in the cumulative ratings, and Butler was 34th - Massey Cumulative. If your eye for talent is that poor, the objective rankings should have prevented you from making a ridiculous, erroneous statement like Butler is a MUCH better team than Wisconsin. But you only started watching college sports two years ago because the Buckeyes were riding high in football and in the national championship game. So you'll learn with more experience following the Big Ten, making your opinions more closely match with reality. Better make the quick adjustment though because I have a feeling we won't be able to enjoy the improved you the next time the Buckeyes have an off year and you jump off the wagon.

Wow, all this simply because I said I think Butler's a much better team than UW? You must really value my opinion. By the way, Butler's currently 16 in the RPI, UW is 23.

Sorry I missed all the fun in this thread--I was busy watching our football team win a BCS bowl game (you know, a meaningful one).

Well, you know what they say: "You gotta get in the queue if ya wanna good screw".
