Harvard @ Boston College Game-Thread

[branchinator]

I'm officially off the Skinner bandwagon. What a fucking lazy ass baby maker he is.

[apbc12]

Thank you. Where the fuck has Trapani been the whole second half?

[BCEagles25]

Are they only down by four?

[apbc12]

Yes.

[EagleDave]

The free throw shooting in this game is hysterical...why bother taking the ball to the basket if you're not going to make them from the line.

BC did the same thing they did last year, they came in off 3 good wins and everyone was telling them they were good again. And like Corey Raji said "we thought because we had Boston College on our chest we'd win". And shockingly, or not, that isn't the case.

[15Radnor]

Where are the Skinner defenders now? I'm sick of his BS.

[BCEagles25]

Welcome to the game, Eagles. Your only 39 minutes late.

[apbc12]

Three point play from Reggie. 69-67 Harvard going to the line, 36.6 remaining.

I used to be one. But this game is the straw that broke the camel's back. Fuck Skinner.

[BCEagles25]

I agree, fire Skinner.

[apbc12]

Lin hit both, Biko got called for what looked like a BS charge.

[2008Eagle]

Fucking awful. Back to back losses to HARVARD!?

[apbc12]

73-67, Harvard at the line, 8 seconds left.

Inexcusable.

[h2o]

Way to go Al.

[Eagledom]

I agree, fire Skinner.

too bad 90% of the people on this board don't realize how fucking terrible skinner and this team are.

[bcfan85]

They do this a few times every year regardless of how good the team is. As long as Al's the coach it's going to continue to happen.

[Logitano]

I think the band was there and I blame them. Coach Handsome dropped Holy Cross because they beat us I am pretty sure Harvard should be dropped ASAP!

[Puerto Rico Eagle]

Welll that shouldn't be something that is accepted...I like Skinner but this is getting old....fast

[Eagledom]

A few times every year? They have done it one of every 3 games this year so far. Fucking Al apologist. If Spaz lost a game even close to any of these 3 you would be screaming for his head. And what's your point, that we should settle for a coach that sucks?

BC is shooting 85% from the floor during this halftime shoot-around..

Fabulous... LMAO!

What part of my post did I apologize for Al and say we should settle?

[Dirtywater75]

We are the laughingstock of the ACC and Boston once more. Southern should not be on the floor. We have no depth. Skinner is horrific. Yet his apologists can relax because unless he gets caught on tape banging his German Shepard he will be here for life with the little guy down the hall. Really looking forward to seeing the sports pages in the morning.

But we are the ACC!

Hats off to Harvard. Better players and better prepared.

[commavegarage]

Just got back from the game and a couple of thoughts:

1. No excuse Al. That was incredible.
2. Why was Trapani sat for 7 consecutive minutes after lighting up the first half?
3. Where was the press at all this game?
4. Southern sucks.
5. Roche sucks.
6. Anybody getting on my back about Raji missing layups shut STFU right now, he missed 4 this game.
7. This team isn't good enough to take nights off.
8. If I were a working man I wouldn't spend my night watching this team play.

Its true. BC is a laughingstock. 2 years in a row to harvard is unheard of. But Al couldn't give a shit because he knows he is here as long as he wants to parade out there and pretend to coach and pretend to recruit.

[h2o]

NJ Tech is gonna kick our ass.

This. Harvard was running constantly off inbounds plays, constant fast breaks. And what did we do? Press to slow them down? Force lower level ball handlers to make some moves? No, we let Lin run right fucking by us time after time for easy dishes to big men (who weren't at all big, but played bigger than Southern). Truly horrific coaching. My high school team would have been pressing in the first half.

[pick6pedro]

I haven't read any comments and I just got back from the drubbing. We should have lost by 25. I haven't been so disgusted since the Mod fence went up.

[pick6pedro]

I've never seen one team be so confused as to whether they were switching or staying on an obvious pick at the top of the key OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER...

I could dissect and fume about this game for hours. Instead I'm going to munch on a taco.
