. You are way off base here, not even close. Now go back to Your boy and recruit some more class b tutors, coach. Lol. Riiiiiiiiight You keep saying "your boy?" Aren't you a big Siena fan, and you root for OUR boy to win every game, right? lol Rock, Chalk, TeePee Rowdy Enlightening to say the least! I always thought we were rooting for the TEAM to win all games - rooting by definition means "to cheer and encourage someone or something" - your "root for OUR boy to win every game" is also interesting - I thought the players were key and not JUST the coach. Can you share with us some of your coach-focused cheers, e.g., let's go Jimmy or Give me a J, give me an I, give me an M, give me an M, give me a Y - what have you got - BEATS ME? Since you obviously had been rooting for MB to lose - how do you do it - just cheering for the opponent?

Your little hate buddy bought up JP, not me.
And I supported MB for two solid years, making up excuse after excuse. Finally I realized he was just awful as a HC, and there was no way around it. So you'll need something else to be wrong about.

So you'll need something else to be wrong about. Gee, I did the same and you made the cross that others wanted to crucify me on - funny isn't it? At least my judgment got calibrated while yours got...............

I made the cross?
The only thing I call you out on is hating this guy from day one.
I didn't want Mitch as the HC after Fran (out of the finalists, I wanted Billy Coen), but once he got the job, I supported his "efforts" for as long as I could (2 years) until I publicly wanted him out.
You figure out the difference.

Gorvy: "why don't we play tougher OOC games!!? Siena schedules Kansas.....Gorvy: " Jimmy just played them to make us happy, we can't beat them, so why play the game?!" Lol[/quotTe] Gorvy can always be counted on to spin the negative. Some see half full, some see half empty. When it comes to Patsos, Gorvy always see it empty and circling the drain. . Show me where I said any of that. I have actually defended him on the schedule, many times. You are attributing quotes to me that are flat out wrong. I expect that from hoop junker but not from you

I didn't want Mitch as the HC after Fran (out of the finalists, I wanted Billy Coen), but once he got the job, I supported his "efforts" for as long as I could (2 years) until I publicly wanted him out. You figure out the difference. As of Day One at Siena, JP had already cemented my assessment of his style and results as a head coach. I first watched him in action in the Knick/Pepsi Arena and found his coaching behavior fascinating. He spent the entire game chewing out one player prior to, during and after each and every play and that kid never logged a minute in the game. It was distracting and annoying as I was constantly drawn back to the clown in front of the Greyhound Bench and away from the game in progress! My job took me to Lynchburg, VA and Johnson City, TN via Baltimore on an almost monthly frequency and I was able to schedule my trips around Siena's games at Reitz Arena so over those many years I got to watch JP in action at least three times or more each year depending on how deep they went in the MAAC - I used to go to each MAAC men's game, not just the Siena games. So you could say I had an "appreciation" for him long before he got here - I was going to say before he began wearing the green and gold but I'm not certain he does that in public! As for hating him, I hate the word hate - strong dislike - YES, hate - NO - I don't know him well enough to engender real hate. Truth be known, I was hoping Tobin would have gotten the nod - wouldn't and didn't happen at Siena so when MB got the job I supported him as I have previously posted for a period similar to yours - mine extended a month or two into MB3 before I pulled the plug.

I have alsays, and will certainly continue to enjoy each and every win any Siena team brings home - I've actually enjoyed some losses where the kids played their hearts out. My disdain for the HC is not tied to W's and L's, it is totally tied to how he purports himself as a representative of Siena College, his employer, and how he treats the kids that come to play for our school, and he has some work to do - made great strides earlier this year and then regressed, IMO. I don't own any Siena apparel that has a coach's name on it and I certainly don't plan on buying any that might become available with his name on it, LOL. In fact, although I like the clothes, I am not crazy that he touts the UA abbreviation.

I get a kick out of how so many see it as important to convert me into a JP Kool-Aid consumer or educate me on the errors of my ways. I am a season ticket holder, go to home games, make road trips, contribute to Saints Alive, root for each and every Siena team, wear Siena apparel, have a Siena vanity plate, and love Siena as a school. What more am I supposed to do? I don't plan to go up the TUC's staircases on my knees imploring guidance from above to help me learn to embrace all things JP. On the other hand, "fans" like MTS sit in their basements and don't contribute a shekel to Siena or add their voices to the crowds in the arena cheering for the team. I don't cheer for or against the coach at the games, yet I do hear many of JP's buddies screaming at the kids during games for daring to miss a FT and then coming on here and decrying any negativity! I just dare to voice my criticism of things I don't like on this board and it seems like folks like HJ, MTS, Bill all get their shorts in a dither and nervous that the foundations of Siena Hoop will somehow crumble. Trust me folks, I don't have that power AND if I did, we wouldn't be having this discussion - you know what I mean.

Wow! MP I hope you didn't dislocate your arm patting yourself on the back like that. You are the indispensable one; I guess we can all shut up now.
