  1. Official 2014 Colorado v Arizona Pac12 Tournament Game Thread (Round 3)

    Hey thanks. Yeah, Gordon's a big part of what makes this team special. The offense isn't always there but the defense is off the charts. He can guard anyone, one through five. He's smart with the ball and has a great handle. Offensive rebounding's a real strength but he can get pushed around on...
  2. Official 2014 Colorado v Arizona Pac12 Tournament Game Thread (Round 3)

    Thanks for all the kind comments about Arizona. You guys had me worried in the first half. I think it's true that the Buffs were gassed from having played two tough games the two previous days. Glad to get out of this one with the W. Had Colorado been rested, I don't think it would have been a...

    It's what I said before. When a team performs well over a long period of time, it tends to draw insecure people looking for something with which to associate their egoic needs. The Yankees for instance. When someone has never lived in New York and says their a Yankee fan, I wonder what's up with...

    There's truth in what you say and Arizona was whistled far more frequently than was Colorado. I saw no evidence of bias; just mediocre officiating -- the kind Pac-12 fans are used to. That said, being a ref must be the hardest job. One has to make fast decisions based on limited information as...

    Living 2 hours north of Seattle, I tried to get worked up about the stuporbowl but truth is I really didn't give a damn. Watched the game and high fived with the locals but I knew I was a faker. I believe sociologists would could me a participant observer. Takes time to develop a true allegiance...

    LOL; my wife would not like it if I kept pictures of Arizona cheerleaders on my computer. You'll just have to tune into our games and watch them live. For what it's worth, I thought you had some beautiful young women on your dance squad. Way too young for me, but I wasn't always an old guy. ;O)

    Miller said exactly the same thing at the half. Both coaches are right. No way Arizona is 27 points better than Colorado. As I said before, I think the huge margin can be attributed to XJ's comments. Arizona came in totally motivated, wanting revenge. Colorado came in feeling pressure to back up...

    Sure, someone has to pay for the heat in mom's basement and an adequate supply of cheese doodles.

    Thanks friend. Good luck to you fellas the rest of the way. Perhaps we'll see you in Vegas.

    Ok, got it. We do have many fans who need to get a life beyond basketball. I think it goes with having a great team. For some people, their whole world seems to rise and fall with the fate of the Cats. I want to say, "Hey guys, it's just a game. Win or lose, we all go back to our jobs, our...

    Do I detect a note of sarcasm? Colorado's a damn gorgeous place, though Tucson's nice in it's own way. Went to law school there and stayed for 18 years. Now I'm in Bellingham Washington. Photo is taken today -- the view behind my home. Okay, time to go out and play in the snow. We don't get...

    Makes sense and I can relate. Every team has hard nights. For the most part, this hoops season has been a magic carpet ride but football season pretty much always leaves me feeling frustrated and moody on numerous occasions.

    Not to pick nits, but Arizona won a tight game against Utah in OT, lost to ASU in double OT and lost to Cal on the road on a last second shot. Two losses so far, a two game lead over UCLA in the Pac-12 race with four games to go, and a decent shot at a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament. Most...

    How can you take offense at that? He was just a kid excited to see his team having its best game since Arizona took apart Duke in the Sweet 16 a few years back. I felt bad for him that, despite his efforts, he was wearing a color closer to Duke's baby blue than Arizona's navy.

    Honestly, in my opinion, this only makes you look immature and foolish.

    Ace is obviously a very troubled fellow. Behind bravado is pretty much always deep-seated insecurity.

    Were the guys to play like that every night, we'd be strong favorites to win it all. Now if only I could get a kid on the other team to make comments like XJ's before each game . . .

    Thanks fellas. These comments, in my opinion, reflect really well on you and your program. Best of luck the rest of the way.

    What was going on there was the guys who usually just sit on the bench after pouring their hearts out day after day on the scout team and in practice got in and were performing at a level none of us have ever seen. Walk on's were looking like polished Pac-12 POY candidates. I think that was...

    As Coach Miller said between halves, there's no way Arizona is 27 points better than Colorado. Sometimes things can get out of hand. I think XJ's comments had A LOT to do with that. Sports is so much about emotion and Arizona came to play. But for XJ's comments, it probably would have been a...
