And, by the way, GMC spent the majority of the second half down by double-digits. In other words, they shot their wad clawing back into the game. It's not like this was a neck-and-neck game the whole way. GMC made it interesting in the end, but they were never in a position to hold the lead late in the game.

NYU only had nine more FT attempts than GMC, a majority of which were taken by McEntee, a star player. Maybe the fact that they NYU shot better from the field and had almost a double-digit rebounding advantage had something to do with it?

I'm with you THX. NYU-Gwynnedd was a hard fought game both ways. The reffing was weak, but no worse than usual. The immature behavior of the Gwynnedd PARENTS was embarrasing to watch. Disgusting actually.

Blaming the loss on the refs is the easy way out too. Bad refs are part of the game, deal with it. Missed foul shots, dumb fouls, and players arguing with their own teammates were responsible for the loss. It's always easy to blame the refs. Add to the list the coach shoving one of his players during a timeout,

TC - I guess you missed the same ref high-fiving one of GMC's players when NYU was shooting.

Been doing this for 15 years and it was the first time I've seen visiting parents asked by security to leave the building.

Looks like TC is a representative sample in terms of GMC fan behavior. Jeez, grow up and get rid of the inferiority complex.

BOY do I HATE NEW YORK even more then before. I am NOT here to make friends, I have enough. Hey thx4playing you HAVE to be that big mouth that couldn't back his words up, ALL TALK, no action. You say you lived in NY for 10 years, stay there you belong there. How can you have 40,000 students and get less fans at your games then GMC does and they have 2,500 students??? As far as GMC playing someone, I guess you can't just leave that alone because that's getting real OLD. They just took the mighty NYU down to the final minutes on their HOMER home court. And STILL no respect. Hey gobombers GMC out scored MIGHTY Ithaca by 20 in the last 10 minutes of the game, so give me a break with that team. We play better teams in the so called PATHETIC PAC. WOW, I HATE NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!! Espically NEW YORKERS!!!!!!!!

I'm guessing it was you that was thrown out of the gym - correct?

GOOD GUESS!!!!! I take it your the wife of MR. no guts?

Your daughter must be mortified by the way you're acting...

I wouldn't think someone who acts as immature as TC HOOPS would even be married much less have offspring.  Has he claimed otherwise before?

All the credit in the world goes to McEntee. Anyone who has watched her game evolve this year, would have to say that she has literally transcended the UAA competition and now that play is moving beyond the conference into the spotlight.

Is literally transending the UAA competition something particular to McEntee?

We led for 85% of the game. I think if the two teams played 10 times, Ithaca would win 5 or 6 of those games. Keep in mind, this was also the second worst Ithaca team of this decade that dominated you for most of the game. I love how you think your anti-Ithaca comments get to me or something. Unlike yourself, I have a life beyond D3 women's basketball.

If you really are the father of a player, you really need to grow up and get some class. Does your daughter read these boards? Your ignorance shines through each time you post. Your conference is awful. Play someone next year and maybe you'll get some credit. What a joke you are. Do you even believe half the stuff you say?

GMC fans will be forever remembered by myself and NYU as the most classless, bigoted, arrogant, toolsheds in the world. Harrassment is a crime and harrassment based on sexual orientation is a hate crime, and that's what a select group of GMC mothers and fathers participated in.

NO CLASS. ON THE COURT AND OFF.

Assigning one label to a large/diverse group because of the actions of some, as you've done with GMC fans, is prejudicial. The next step in the evolution is bigotry.

Either step off your high horse or step in line.

Relax feces-
Bach clearly references a "select group" of GMC fans. I was sitting next to a group of their fans who were behaving appropriately. No one is accusing ALL their fans of being 'classless, bigoted, arrogant toolsheds'

The select group Bach refers to made some very hateful, harassing remarks to some people much beloved in the NYU family. The remarks were intended to offend, hurt and humiliate us. Forgive us for being hurt, offended and humiliated. And recognize our right to call a spade a spade.

Yikes. It seems GMC and NYU are perfect for each other.

[David Collinge]

I suppose Wonder Woman is referring to the sort of "spade" one might find in a "toolshed?"  At least, I hope so.

Based on reading this link, I would think that certain posters have a different idea of this phrase's meaning than others. Hopefully nobody meant to offend anyone else.
