Here Come the Haters

Thanks OUhoops!

Just took out some trash.

Nothing pisses me off more than aholes who only show up after losses. Two of which, who have been banned tonight, have barely posted this season.

And I don't mind "trolls" as long as they're at least witty. But when your troll is to only rub salt in the wound after losses, that's not gonna fly anymore.

I'm perfectly fine with criticism of the program, as long as it's somewhat respectful. I understand there can be some wide-ranging emotions after losses, but don't be a complete jackasses about it.

Well done, OUHoops! Posters who only come here to gripe and complain after a loss will not be missed by anyone, especially me.

Nothing embarrassing about losing a game in the NCAA tournament.
If you've ever watched the dang thing, this is what happens every year.
Ohio State lost to Dayton. Cinci lost to Harvard.
Our program is no different from any other. 5-12 upsets happen. A lot.

Just ban anyone who comes on here and says our team blows! No need for it. Good job guys. We will be good for a few years!

it would be nice if there was a way to temporarily ban people that don't participate much other than to melt down following every loss.

I don't like censorship.

I don't like censorship.

Nobody is being censored.

I don't like censorship.

And I don't like reading morons go on and on after a loss, when like OUHoops said, that poster hasn't been around at all this season.

I just don't get why everyone is so upset by the "moron" posts. It's all quite predictable. They post for 2 hours after the game and then they're gone. I was hoping to get some perspectives from them.

No room for trolls, but this is a really bad, embarrassing loss fellas. That WAS North Dakota state!!!! I just expect more. Sorry if that's wrong.

Actually that was a 12 seed. Pretty much by definition a 12 seed is one of the best automatic qualifiers from the one tournament team conferences. I agree OU should have won but I am not embarrassed and I don't think the players should be embarrassed.

Three 12 seeds played yesterday. Two won and one lost in OT. Two 13 seeds played yesterday. Both games were competitive. Dayton won as an 11 seed.

I will give you a free lesson in Constitutional Law. You have a right to free speech. That means the state cannot censor you. All of us have a right to freedom of association. That means we don't have to associate with someone we don't enjoy. When people are banned for acting like jerks, they are not being censored. Rather, everyone else is simply exercising their right not to associate with those people. No rights have been violated.

Who said anything about anyone's rights? My perspective is not legal.

Regarding the "free lesson," I definitely got what I paid for.

You never get perspective from posters who only post when they are pissed off after a loss.
