MBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Scrub023]

LOL. I havent been on the board in awhile and Im surprised at the ridiculousness of the argument. I thought I got it bad over on the MWC board for my LU rant on the conference selections, but I have watched CCIWchamps karma drop from -3 to -17 over the span of time I wasn't on. Shouldn't you just give up your argument? It is entertaining though, and maybe a little bit annoying as well.

Yeah, no kidding.  I actually did give up the topic several posts back, but it keeps coming back to life via new entries to the board.  And yes, since I last checked in, I've dropped from -15 to -23 in a matter of a few hours.  I'm not sure which post put them off. 
Pat did say there are quite a few posters on the CCIW board capable of controlling your k.

D3Boards Karma score, the real measure of man's worth.  When someone asks how I am doing, I pause to check my Karma score.

This is just pure brilliance. Wow.

[Mr. Ypsi]

I hasten to acknowledge that it is only slightly modified from a joke my wife forwarded to me.  But it had already been forwarded to her with no attribution, so I couldn't credit it.  It is brilliant (and not far from the truth for some boards I've seen), but the brilliance is not mine.

Wheaton's Raymond Named 2009 DIII News Player of the Year. "Kent came back for another year of basketball and proved that he is a top player at this level," said DIII News Editor Gary Rubin of the selection. Rubin concluded, "There were many candidates for this award, but at the end of the day we felt Kent was the most deserving."

Did they see Bartolotta play in person though?

You, Sir, have offended the denizens of the bat cave.  Whenever one of their number is taking a verbal beating they swarm like locust thinking that by generating negative karma to their offended's berater they negate his/her arguments.  Actually, as in past performances these denizens only prove the worthiness of the offender's argument by their infantile group theatrics and rhetoric.  Most of them don't even comment they just give you a -K.

I will +K you, sir, every day until I, and the rest of my truth squad, can get you back to higher ground.

Only in the pre-season.

2 Classic lightbulb jokes:

How many psychologists does it take to change a lightbulb?
One, but the lightbulb has got to really want to change.

How many surrealists does it take to change a lightbulb?
