Valpo Zip Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think that Can't has a great chance to do something in the NIT this season. I am not sure yet, but as of now, i think..., i think that i will have no problem rooting for them in the NIT. The greatest thing about tonight was knowing that we won't have to see singletary anymore. Here is hoping that Geno will be recruiting better people than those Jim Christian recruited.

ZachTheZip Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I'll root for them in the NIT. After this season, pretty much all the players I associate with the team are gone. They'll struggle a lot next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootforRoo44 Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 You know after our loss to Can't last week I had to walk in front of their small crowd at listen to them talk so much crap to all of us. I would LOVE to see those idiots right now! I bet they were making fun of us because we went to OT with EMU, but hey at least we won...Of course Zips fans are glad K.e.n.t was upset, how else do you think Akron is going to win the tournament? You won it last year and you'll probably win it this year but you'll never get it going through us.I was in that section talking all that trash, I'd probably do it again. We'll enjoy the NIT...just remember, only one of us knows for certain our team is going to a post season bracket at this point. Let's Go F.lashes, 2-0 this season and regular season YOU SUCK...as bad as your team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Personally, there is a part of me that is very disappointed that Akron wont go through the Flusherz. Of course, if they don't win, they don't belong here, so Que Sera Sera, but how righteously satisfying would it have been to gone through and whooped them in the tourney?

Quickzips Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Did anybody else see Singletary throw a deliberate knee to Bassett after the whistle around the 7 minute mark of the second half? One of his teamates had already committed the foul and it was starting to get a little chippy. Singletary walked over like he was going to try to calm things down, then threw a cheap knee to Bassetts mid-section. Good to see him go out on a classy note.

RowdyZip Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I took a gander at the K-ent board just to get a feel for their "fans." They have one guy over there who is reasonable saying "hats off to OU for playing a better game." Everyone else is b*tching because they lost because of "the way the MAC chose to seed the tournament." :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickzips Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 You know what, none of the Can't fans were complaining about the tournament setup 3 years ago when a miracle by Doug Penno knocked the best team in the conference and the best shot this conference has had in years of winning in the NCAA's out. Now that the shoe is on the other foot all you hear from them is how whacked out this conference is, how unfair the seeding is, how the tournament is really worthless and we should just send the regular season champ to the NCAA's like the Ivy League does. Ironic. When the shoe is on the other foot it doesn't fit so well does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the Zips win Saturday night, some will say we were lucky again because of the shot last night and Can't losing. Those people are typically Cleveland fans who have never won a championship. My favorite professional teams have won a lot of championships in my lifetime and all of them required some luck at some point in the run. Let's take the luck as a blessing and win the championship.

Let's take the luck as a blessing and win the championship.When David Tyree made the miracle catch and the lowly Giants came all the way from the wild card to beat the unbeatable Patriots, they put it in the book asGIANTS WIN SUPERBOWLIt ALWAYS takes some luck to go all the way. But in the end all that counts is who goes into the record books as the winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 What good does being the best team in the regular season do for you when you can't play when it matters the most?The idea of conference tournaments is to send the team that plays their best at the right time. It's not always the one who played best over the course of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
