thespleenenator Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I was talking about the first part, numbskull.And so was I. Outside of the month of March, no one gives a damn about college basketball. Numbskull? Wow. You really put me in my place didn't you?Maybe you don't, but millions of people do. Now you're just spewing nonsense and insults. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.

And I'm being foolish? Normally I'm just kidding about Arizona being the 13th grade but your argument is making me wonder if it's actually true.

Hell, there was no good reason for Miller to come to Tucson in the first place. Arizona is far from irrelevant.

Do you not pay attention to basketball at all?I pay plenty of attention to college basketball. Arizona is on the outskirts of relevancy. Kevin W, however, is pretending that they're on the Kentucky/UNC/Duke/UConn/Kansas/UCLA level of relevancy, or even the Butler/Louisville/Pitt/tOSU/Florida level of relevancy. They aren't. I hear the teams I mentioned talked about all the time during college basketball season in the media and in my daily life. Arizona? Not so much.

Do you not pay attention to basketball at all?I can't speak for Lights Out but in my case, outside of March? Nope. Listen rook, college football dwarfs college basketball. It doesn't mean basketball is bad. It just means that college football is far more popular; which was my point in the first place. Only an idiot would say that Arizona basketball is as relevant on the college sports scene as Ohio State football is. Ohio State football is much "bigger" than Arizona basketball. It's simply a fact.

We'd be at the level of a team like UConn or UCLA if we had a few more national championships (just wait) but infrared is trying to say that we're not relevant at all. That's just not true.

Lights Out Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 IMO, these are arguably the top ten most relevant programs in college football today:1. Alabama2. Ohio State3. Florida4. Oregon5. Michigan6. Oklahoma7. Boise State8. Virginia Tech9. Texas10. TCUWould you honestly put Arizona basketball above anyone on that list?

infrared41 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Kev, did it ever occur to you that we do this just because we know you'll get all riled up and go into Arizona homer mode? I'm just busting your chops kid. Believe it or not, I actually agree with you. Arizona is among the top tier of college basketball programs. That said, we both know that Arizona hoops is nowhere near as "big" nationwide as Ohio State football is. Nor are they as big as any of the football programs Lights Out listed.(By the way, I agree with a lot of that list Lights Out.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
