Guess I got demoted here, so can't post in regular spot. Anyway, was at the game and we played very, very well offensively. I think we were up to 65% FG as a high point. Usual inability to guard 3PT shooters, but they couldn't sustain shooting 53% all game and fell back to earth in the 2nd. I loved how we drove a lot more. Lots of little dump passes in the paint leading to easy dunks or layups though layups overall were still a big concern. Struggled there again and also missed 3-4 alley oops. At least we covered! Offense looking good, just need defense to be intense every game.

By the way, anyone who actually wants to talk SJ hoops without censorship, please PM me. I'd like to meet some of the guys on here and maybe we can have a beer and start a group text chat or something when not at the games so I can retire here officially.

Mike, there was a blip on the site at one point where the Princeton game thread disappeared for a bit. Maybe that is what you are referring to? I seriously doubt you got demoted. I'd be very surprised and disappointed if that were the case.

Nah, it's true not a blip. Btw was sitting in Sec 101. Looked for some of you guys but didn't see anyone or I would've said hello.

WOW!! That is completely ridiculous if true. I rarely agree with your posts but they are never abusive unlike some other non-banned posters who delight in name calling and other petty nonsense. Think I'll take a break from posting; this is a little too Orwellian for me.....
 
Zaun you have a personal mjmaherjr Invite to 114 any game this year and I legit mean that

Haha thanks man...seems like a fun bunch. As a fellow IPA fan, I've never tried the Bronx Pale Ale. On my to do list.

Bad move. Sorry to hear that, Mike. Truly. Bummer. NCJ is right: It is Orwellian.
 
Not sure what Zaun did but probably undeserved when you consider some others here get away with murder
 
I hope people reconsider. Mike Zaun has a place here. Let him back if the case.
 
Free Mike Zaun! Pain in the ass to read some of his posts but definitely not deserving of a demotion on here
 
[quote="sirvoo" post=307421]Free Mike Zaun! Pain in the ass to read some of his posts but definitely not deserving of a demotion on here[/quote]

I can be, especially during games posting so my new approach is to actually attend as many games as possible so I'm too distracted to actually post anything impulsively lol.

Lol the best thing to do as I’ve also learned is to go to the home games and resist posting until getting home

You are awesome Zaun. I would love to see a packed of house of Fanatics as passionate as yourself. Thank you for going above and beyond the responsibilities of a typical fan.
 
[quote="Mike Zaun" post=307418]Reason: "many posters provided you with many negative comments".[/quote]

Let the guy back on. This is ridiculous. Yeah, Mike would probably make the best Soap Opera actor in the history of Soaps—but so what!
He’s one of us, and nobody is as passionate and yes—critical—as Mike.
But, you can see the passion and smoke rising from the tech-no-glazed online page and it is not mean-spirited.
He should be reinstated.
Period.
