Sick to my stomach!

Post by BGSU33 »

I have been away from the board for almost a week because I am in San Antonio, Texas where I "WAS" enjoying a very nice vacation until I jumped back on the board to see what I have been missing while I was away. When I left for this trip, I was feeling good about the team after feeling (for the time being of course) that Wright was back on the team. Then, I about lost it when I read that Ron Lewis was leaving the team.

The fact of the matter is, I really don't even know what to say anymore. Year after year, and now recently, week after week, we are hearing and dealing with more and more troubles with our players and team and frankly, I am getting very sick and tired of it! I'm not pointing my finger, because I don't know where to even start to point it, but enough is enough already. The program once known as the BG Basketball team is becoming a three-ring circus and I for one (and I know I am not alone) and getting really sick and tired of it!

We have become a joke of a team of sorts, we really have. From our poor play in recent years, to players quitting, transferring and not wanting to play as a team, to incidents with our coaching staff, and I have had enough. Whatever happened to the days of having a competitive "TEAM" at BG? Whatever happened to off-seasons where we didn't lose players after players and the guys on the team stayed on campus in the summer to workout with each other to get better? And more importantly - what the hell ever happened to BG basketball?!?!?!

I'm tired of all of this guys, I really am. I have put to much time and energy into supporting and following this program to let it keep crushing me week after week with more and more bad news. I don't even know who we are to blame anymore, and my guess is it's a result of more than one reason. But this is it. I'll never give up on this team or school, because I am a Falcon forever no matter what. But in this time when we are painting nothing but a bad image of our program every week, I can't pour my heart into this so-called team right now.

I agree with some other posts about how we deserve an explination from Dakich about the state of affairs this team is in, and that losing would even be more acceptable than what we are dealing with now. Because if I were a recruit looking at BG with all of this going on, I wouldn't want to attend BG. Would you? And that is my point, this is turning into and is a big problem right now.

I'm done looking at this board while I am away on vacation and I am going to get back to enjoying my time away, because I know if I log on and look at the BG basketball board, I am only going to be informed about more crap I wish I didn't know about concerning our so called team. In the mean time, I am going to go downtown on the Riverwalk and drink an extra few for our program. And if I get the desire to want to take a quick look at anything on this board before I leave here this weekend, I'll make myself go to Sea World and watch the dolphins and whales "work together as one unit" before I get back on here and read about how our team can't! BG deserves better, the team deserves better and frankly, I deserve better!

This might all sound selfish, but it's true. This has all got to stop and get better - and soon! Because right now, if you want to watch a "TEAM" play D-I basketball in Northwest Ohio, you have to go to Toledo because we sure as hell do not resemble one right now, and that's unacceptable!
GO BG!!!

I feel your pain brotha. This is not what BG hoops is about.
