Let's just say I have heard some of his pregame speeches and leave it at that.

Let's remember that we don't know what Jimmy may have said pregame to "motivate" the team. Perhaps he was already cruising for his techs before the game even started. He may have belittled the players to the point where they were unable to focus. It would not be the first time and won't be the last. Why would any coah "belittle" his team BEFORE the game? I would believe your story if it was at halftime. That happens all the time, but before the game? Not likely.

Believe me it happens. . It is not right but it happens. If they had come out strong and won the game and the coach wasn't ejected I would not be speculating. I don't know what was said pregame. I could find out but don't really care that much. The point is they looked like a bunch of sad sacks from the tip off. We can only wonder and hope it doesn't happen again.

Th24 is like the board mom I don't think Th24 wants to read stupidity. Nor do I. Criticizing is one thing, but these kind of stupid comments from Saratoga, coming out of left field, is not acceptable. He's a jerk, and it's insulting even having to read such negative gibberish.

Ummmm. Have you read everyone else's very negative posts about this game?
I will never say anything negative about a player. That is a promise. Can you say the same?

I am pretty sure that wasn't the plan. Get real. But I am happy Greg had the chance to show his chops.
