For the sake of the board, bite me! Your 1 man, 1.5?, anti-Jenkins crusade was an embarrassing, even for you, chapter in St. John's interweb fan site history.
It's "ovah" when you admit your transgression, and apologize to Daniss, this board, and the University in that order.

Take it easy man- your comedy tour is not all that much fun to read either. Outside the Jenkins commentary Marillac is one of the site’s best reads besides former member “fun”. Let’s stop chasing people out of here.. not many of us old school fans left.

Of course Marillac is one of the sites best reads and I consider him a good friend. I am positive that Marillac's response to my off color post will not be to be chased away. Likely he'll find it funny or at least somewhat amusing.
I too miss the good Doctor as much or more than most. I wish he would comeback.

Take it easy though. You are burying the poor guy.

Ironically, Marillac2 is disrupting chemistry more than Jenkins.

happy endings in moving theaters? Sounds like the old Times Squarethis website isn't about happy endings. Let's keep it on topic
We are ..... St Johns
Great info . Question . RJ is having a possible BE POY year and his value might have increased in terms of NBA draft position ?
Does that happen or , is he basically stuck at that number 54?
I find it hard to believe there are 53 better players than RJ , even including the European kids .
If he delays until 2026 draft , he will be another year older , 23? And , it seems the NBA likes them younger than that . Usually
Plus , there is always the possibility of injury that could render his position a year from now , much less
I would like to see him return but , the circumstances seem to be against that happening .
What’s your view ?
Tony Kornheiser is the best. He and Wilbon are great and both Johnnies fans. Best line, Uconn is from a neighboring state, it is not NYC's team, St. John's owns the Garden. St. John's is as big as the Knicks, bigger than the Nets. Something to that effect.

Didn't anyone else hear the "F**k Dan Hurley" chants near the end of the game? I could hear it all the way in Vietnam. At first I thought it was a bit crude. Then I realized, it was more about A-holes calling our Garden "Storrs South". They were just putting the exclamation point on the sentence the team was delivering. "This is OUR COURT!"
And I'm sorry - No way this was a 60-40 crowd.

Not crude, classless, but that’s just my opinion, obviously a lot of posters here reveled in it and some fall all over each other to see who can post that kind of crap. I am going to my first live game Saturday with my son, his wife, their 6 year old son, my daughter and her 9 year old daughter. Both of my grandchildren play and love hoops and their request I go with them is the only thing that can get me to do it.
We may be old school but we are trying to teach them that kind of stuff should be beneath them but to each their own.

I still remember Tony getting heated years ago when someone from the mailbox called St. John's the UCLA of mediocrity.
Enjoy the game. Saturday afternoon games are perfect for family outings. I went with my wife, daughter and son-in-law to the PC game on a Saturday at noon and really enjoyed it.
I agree Logen . If St John’s is going to attract a younger crowd and possibly future Students , it’s not cool to be yelling F — bombs at the Garden or , anywhere .
Families ,especially don’t want those type chants anywhere near them .
Another thing , is since Pitino has risen the Program from the depths of Purgatory , our fan base should opt to be more classy and befitting a good fan image .
Not descending to the depths of UCONN , Syracuse , G ‘town back in the day .
Winning BB hasn’t been our thing for 2 Decades . We need to know how to act with that emergence .
It’s going to be a learned behavior that puts a good identity to the Team and School .
We are a Catholic University after all . Good sportsmanship is virtue .

Obviously we disagree, I don’t think that type of immature nonsense by supposedly mature, intelligent adults is ever warranted.
I have posted this before; in the end of the book No Country For Old Men, the lawman, the Tommy Lee Jones character in the movie, tries to sort out some understanding of the events of the book but primarily to understand the lack of common decency and respect that is disappearing from our society. He starts backing up from where he thinks things are currently and finally arrives at the conclusion that the beginning of the loss of decency was the moment when we stopped raising children to have respect for their elders, his concrete example being when children stopped calling adults Ma’am and Sir.
One of the more very simple profound pieces of writing I have ever read.
It was 60-40. In the 100s, probably 85-15. But the 200s had a similar split the other way. 400s/bridge seemed 50-50.
They were loud the first six minutes of the game and loud when they made their run. But since we were so much better than them, and made most of the hustle plays, plus did have a young crowd, we were able to shut them up and drown them out.
