Did some of you really think we were better than a 9th place team this year? "Shocker Fever"
The answer would be "Yes"---and you were one of them on DEC 4th.

Then shortly thereafter in December, look below at your next comments.
Some of you predicting 3rd-6th finishes, I'd argue, don't know basketball.."ShockerFever" ------
You disqualified yourself there SF? You did originally say 6th in early December? So later in Dec. you did not like that prediction so you changed it to 8th before the Valley race. No problem. However, did you not know basketball in early December when you said 6th---but now like to rub it in most every post about others who orginally predicted 4th on the same thread called "MVC 3 weeks in" on page 6? Hmmmm! We are now in last place and have not won a Valley game. Thus, who knew this would happen? Did you? Maybe now with such vast hindsight, you could also now pick us 9th or 10th? You seem to really know basketball after the fact? Hmmmmm!!!
Are you really that stupid? You still don't know the difference in my preseason prediction of 8th place and a weekly ranking I gave us at 6?
You're a lost cause.
Top 4.. :good:
Why do you have to be so mean to a fellow brother of Shock who just loves his Shockers?
You should not use such aggression against those that bleed the same colors as you do.

The thing is he was giving me a pretty hard time for picking us 8th. I said I was just being realistic and I didn't wanna set myself up for disappointment. Unfortunately, I was proved right.
He can say we're gonna win the league every year.. idc. But when he starts it up with me, I'm gonna finish it.
And yet after all we've been through, he still can't accept the reality of the whole situation.
A couple of people just need to get over it. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong.
You can carry it to your grave if you want, but all it does is occupy a part of your brain that could be useful for something else.
