2/26/2009 11:18:44 PM

not lookin too good

already down 9

turnovers

2/26/2009 11:23:10 PM

since I know all of you care --

- down by one at the half
- they were down by 12, but finished the half on like a 22-9 run
- the two draft picks have all but 6 of the first half points
- cut down on the TOs, the fouls and actually make a three ball and they'll win going away

2/27/2009 12:02:01 AM

WOW.

Overtime. What a great fucking game.

2/27/2009 1:02:24 AM

tough loss

21-6 (10-5)


doesn't help when Harden and Pendergraph both foul out

oh well, life goes on

2/27/2009 1:22:44 AM

just became a huge UofA fan for this weekend

really, the best ASU can hope for is to get a co-title...but that's better than nothing. it's a banner in the rafters.

they should beat WSU and Stanford...the Cal game will be tough.

finish 3-0 and hope UW finishes 1-1. ANYTHING IS POSSSSIBLLLLE

2/27/2009 11:30:19 AM

I would talk some more shit to you but UofA has dropped 2 straight and played terrible against Wazzou last night

good to have you on board for Saturday though, gonna be a big game

2/27/2009 2:25:22 PM

the Cats are playing for their tournament life

it's a must-win and dammit I hope they do

2/27/2009 4:38:49 PM

game at 5pm
channel 686
must win out

2/28/2009 12:18:40 PM

up 3 at the half
Jeff with 8, Harden with only 3
defensive battle as expected

2/28/2009 5:56:27 PM

they picked the worst time of the year to start sucking ass

missed FTs is the story of this game

in a super low scoring game, you cant miss 5 FTs in a row

2/28/2009 6:34:08 PM

Did they win?

2/28/2009 6:54:40 PM

game just ended

Rochestie drained a 3 with 2 seconds left in overtime to win by 2

second straight OT loss, second straight game Harden fouled out, second straight game lost by 3 or less

that'll be on SportsCenter's top-10

[Edited on February 28, 2009 at 7:06 PM. Reason : 2]

2/28/2009 7:06:02 PM

49 and 51 points in OT... was this a big ten game?

2/28/2009 7:07:38 PM

nah, just a matchup of the two best defenses in the conference

2/28/2009 7:16:54 PM

haha fag devils losing two straight in overtime

sounds familiar

2/28/2009 9:52:59 PM

I'm shocked, shocked I tell ya, that a Herb Sendek coached team would implode against inferior competition after quietly moving up the rankings.

2/28/2009 9:56:36 PM

Yeah sounds terrible.


Good thing we won't have to worry about imploding when we're highly ranked any time soon.

2/28/2009 10:49:32 PM

as much as I liked herb, I hated these kinds of implosions...it's kind of like clemson football...nobody remembers where they were after 8 weeks

but it's good to see that he's got ASU elevated above where they were before he came to town

3/1/2009 12:04:29 AM

I don't cry when ASU loses. I'm sick of reading all of the news articles that talk bad about State fans for running him off.

3/1/2009 12:50:08 AM

i wouldn't call UW an inferior opponent. they clinched the PAC10 title and they're going to finish the regular season at 25-7 (14-4). the WSU loss on a 30-foot three pointer was a bad loss. but i wouldn't call UW a bad loss. UW would be top-3 if they played in the ACC this year

those two losses should kick ASU out of the top-25 though. their lack of athleticism has been exposed and now they're looking at the dreaded 8 or 9 seed in the NCAAs

3/1/2009 10:51:36 AM

Par for the course for herb ball

3/1/2009 11:21:04 AM

i've seen it all before...or at least some form of this

start the season hot, get up to #11 in the polls. challenging for 1st in the conference. 21-5 record

now they're fighting for 2nd in the conference with barely an outside shot at winning the conference tourney

3/1/2009 11:25:39 AM

Not sure what is more pathetic, another Herb letdown or you having this fake interest for the purposes of trolling Sports Talk.

3/1/2009 11:26:57 AM

still not trolling. but you can believe whatever you want

and trust me, a weak ass alias talking shit really doesn't bother me. i've seen it all before

3/1/2009 11:39:40 AM

You can understand how most people would consider you trolling, right? pad

3/1/2009 11:48:37 AM

he trolls the hell out of me, that's all i know.

my rebuttal to that is I've been following him and ASU since he got the job and I posted updates and stuff during the 8-22 season. it would be trolling if I just started this season when times were good.

next year, they'll be lucky to get in the NIT...but guess what? i'll still make a thread and keep everybody up to date. nobody wants Herb back, I don't want him back. but the fact is, there are some people on TWW who have an interest in him and wish him luck in Tempe. thus, the posts will continue

Just making sure the topic stays on the front page of this site is trolling. However, you seem like the type of guy that isn't satisfied with just pointing out they are doing good, no, you actually study the team to be even more obnoxious about it, to cover up the trolling better - which puts the pathetic-ness at epic levels.

3/2/2009 1:14:41 PM

and since I watch all of the games and keep up with the recruiting, it makes me different from the Duke fans and Tennessee fans how?

3/2/2009 2:10:35 PM

the tennessee fan actually went to tennessee.

you're no worse than those duke/ohio state/michigan fans, though, except that i hate herb sendek.

3/2/2009 2:16:40 PM

it never ceases to amaze me how people get so worked up as to why someone likes/follows a different team. get over it.

im a huge tennessee fan and a huge bruce pearl fan. sports keep me sane, and if he went to another school soon, id probly follow his new team.

go post in another thread if you dont like someone else's team.

3/2/2009 3:05:20 PM

i have a serious question for you.

why do you bother w/ john kruk?

3/2/2009 3:08:03 PM

this USE to be his alias... and then a friend's tww account got hacked and dissapeared. it hasnt been an alias for quite some time now. just an fyi.

3/2/2009 3:09:28 PM

i don't believe you.

[Edited on March 2, 2009 at 3:10 PM. Reason : v you either]

3/2/2009 3:10:01 PM

FYI, Kruker isn't ncstatetke anymore... and hasn't been for some time. They do live together though for the smartass mod who will run the IP check.

3/2/2009 3:10:05 PM

i prefer the word roomate. "live together" sounds gay.

3/2/2009 3:11:50 PM

Oh, my bad I thought you guys were "life partners."

3/2/2009 3:12:17 PM

Stanford @ 830pm

big game for conference tourney seedings

channel 686

3/5/2009 6:11:52 PM

hoping for a scum devil loss and a Wildcat victory over Cal tonight!

[Edited on March 5, 2009 at 6:24 PM. Reason : .]

3/5/2009 6:22:19 PM

i'm hoping you guys beat Cal too!

a) it will help out ASU
b) it will prove AU can win without Jordan Hill


good luck tonight and over the next few months with the NCAA investigation

3/5/2009 7:17:38 PM

Does this thread make Herb dance?

3/5/2009 7:21:34 PM

no, but 21 wins (and counting) does

3/5/2009 8:07:23 PM

gettin' WORKED! down 14 with 15 minutes left

can't shoot, can't rebound, lots of turnovers, nothing is working

this team does NOT deserve to go to the dance

3/5/2009 9:48:25 PM

but last year they might have deserved to, but didnt

will horseshoe head be snubbed again???

"can't rebound"
