The Bobcat Nation

It is 11 20 and the b ball game has been over since 9 and there is no topic on them. They did play pretty bad in the first half but played even with them the second. Has everyone given up on this team and we should be looking foward to spring football or what. I will get alot of responses but i myself have not given up on this team and i am sorry if you guys have

I'm not sure exactly what you expected people to get excited enough about to post. Were you hoping that people would get in here and complain about losing by 20 to a mediocre team, or were you actually thinking that people would be excited by the fact that, if we only pulled out the part of the game in which we were outscored by 20 points, it would have been a close game?

I think when the team gives the fans some reason to be optimistic, they will respond. As it is, I think most people are just following the rule that their grandmothers taught them -- "If you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing at all."

Boy, that would be a first for this forum--or any online anonymous forum for that matter.

Yeah, I think this is about the only time I have noticed it happening. I think maybe everybody is just worn out on the topic -- nothing has really changed from the status quo, so maybe we're just beating a dead horse by talking about it.

As in -- call us when they finally have an impressive game.

I totally agree....I can't remember the last time I was excited about the basketball team. I think it was during Holmstadt and Sprinkle's regime!

Other than this game, the Cats are only a few free throws away from a nice start. There is hope. I don't have much to say about a game I didn't see. Last year, things kind of caved in on CSU in Bozeman, so you could maybe see this one coming. Can't say I'm excited about the Bobcat men, but I'm ready to change my mind.

Not much to say...they're off to a pretty bad start record-wise. They started like this in '01-'02 though and that was a team with a bunch of new but talented players, which is similar to this year. Whether this team does anywhere close to what that team did is still up in the air.
