This is a ludicrous post with no merit. (Sorry, couldn't let all the praise go to your head) This sucks!!

Gonna need you to change your username with that hot take. 😁

Got ya. 👍

You.mean different people voicing different opinions? That seems like what should be expected on a message board.

This may be that day. Can't blame him, as its what they do. But hindsight they should have kicked a field goal to go up 3 scores in the 3rd.

That looks delicious. 🙄

Absolutely shocking 1st half. Lions dominating in every aspect.

That's where I am at as well.

On to the next... Who ya got. SF? Detroit?

Baltimore odd game planning and poor discipline at the worst time.

They have definitely tipped over to the side of over-exposed. 🤣

We are clearly better without Sydney Parrish. 😜

Prevent defense time!

Chiefs and Ravens off to an exciting start. 7-7.

Then I hate Draymond.

I don't follow yhe NBA closely these days. But it seems TJD has had his minutes reduced recently. And he had been playing well He shows only 6 minutes against the Lakers tonight.

I don't give a rats @$$ about Kum ba Yah. I don't care who likes a post. I care that people understand some people tend to be patient and supportive when we struggle. Some want to fire everybody and burn down the University. And most are somewhere in between. And all views are welcome to post their feelings and opinion. We are all allowed to voice our disagreement with an opposing view. That has not changed from the day this place came into existence. What has changed is that everybody takes everything personal. Everybody posts as a combative, "I told you so" instead of just voicing an opinion. The bottom line is everybody hear loves IU. We are all passionate. So when it's a struggle on the court, we all act emotionally. And we all react differently. That's OK. The pettiness of back and forth instead of a mature debate/disagreement is the problem. To that point, I think everybody needs to look in the mirror and quit pointing fingers. And to be clear, I realize I am being loose with the term "everybody". It's the proverbial vocal minorities on the extreme sides of the debate that tend to hijack everything. I seriously am at the end of my rope and about to just walk away. I am sorry if it is inappropriate of a mod, but I am really upset that the vast majority of the problems here are from long term, great members. We are letting another frustrating season ruin a great community. And that is on the members, not the moderators.

Let's all start debating points and topics, not the person. This is not peegs. You, me, everybody here, plays a role in the tone of this board. Everybody on all sides of the arguments love to throw jabs and then play the victim. You have been here forever. You should know this is very normal when we suck. Calling out the "musketeers" etc doesn't help. Look, everybody here has a choice. Complain about the tone here. Bash our sight as garbage etc. Or help be part of the solution and let's all get back to respectfully disagreeing. @Seeking6 , this is not a shot at you at all. Please understand. I am using your post as a jumping off point for this message. Personally, i am really frustrated that so many long term posters cant remember what this place is all about. It is not my job (or the job of myfellow mods), it's the communities obligation! It has become everybody belittling those they disagree with. It's seriously become too much. The community here should care enough to fight for this place. Not be part of the problem and tear it down. Sorry for the rant. Back to discussing basketball.....hopefully.

On to the post game thread.

Changed it. We are desperate lol

That is both reassuring and concerning.

I put in the work, I am ready

Let's move on tonthe game thread. 🙏

No fear, we will correct "rocketting up the net" nonsense that this week.
