@KKcards: Chris Jones has been dismissed from the University of Louisville men's basketball team. There will be no comment on the matter.
Well, let me be the first to whine. While I didn't expect a Final Four, I thought it was possible. I can pretty confidently say that a Final Four is now impossible. UofL sports are where I spend my entertainment time and money, so yes this is disappointing news.Originally posted by zipp:
I've sounded the WHINER ALERT.
Expecting a tidal wave starting...about...now...
Disappointed, yes. Surprised, NO. Anyone with a sliver of common sense could see this coming. It was only a matter of time.Originally posted by Ipartiedwithhopgood:
Yeah.
Zipp this is some significant news I think it's ok for some people to be disappointed, or whatever emotion they choose to find.

Give me an example of what would be a whiney statement about the Jones dismissal . Disappointed is OK with you but what wouldn't be oh guardian of positivity on the board?

I've heard anything from drugs, to skipping classes, to assaulting a gf.
Clearly, admin refusing to make further comment suggests this was a legal issue.

Hearing this to, except it was before the suspension, which led to his suspension.Originally posted by Ipartiedwithhopgood:
Hearing he assaulted a woman last night.
True or false?
Not sure.
If true, which I'm thinking it might be - he deserves what's coming.

"...I'm talking about the venting, pouting, temper tantrum variety I expect to see from a few posters. If they don't appear, they're making an improvement. I'll believe it when I see it..."
Usually accompanied by broad generalizations of the basketball program, the coaching, the players...you get the drift. And full of frustration and anxiety less than two years after a national championship.
Sports amnesia.
Does that apply to you??
