But saying "I hate Hansbrough" when you don't really hate him, but just the media, makes you look really, really stupid. Its sort of sad how much power the media has over sports fans in general. They spread so much stupidity, and the fact that the games are becoming more and more available makes it even worse. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

6 of one, half dozen of the other. You guys are making a big deal about someone who says they hate Hansbrough. It's an easy fix. You would ask why they hate TH and the person would say the media and then it becomes immediately obvious they don't actually hate TH the person, just the media coverage of him. If someone instead says that they hate the media, you would ask why, and they would say they don't hate all of the media, just the part that covers college basketball because of the way they treat TH. So what's the difference? Either way you have to explain your true feelings. My point is don't be confused when people say they hate TH. You should know what they really mean. |

I can't bring myself to hate any athletes that put their hearts into each game and conducts themselves positively Not a fan of the flopping myself, but Reggie Miller did it worse than anyone EVER... and we all love him. So respect the style he plays, because it produces. Hansbrough is the type of player that can single handedly change a program.. like some on here have said, if he went to IU then all those hard feelings wouldn't exist.

The guy picked last in gym class

Actually, I didn't care for Miller's flops and I am a Pacers fan. What I did like is that in crunch time, he wanted the ball and he seemed to be the kind of player who really worked at his game. The same is true with Hansborough...I can respect how hard he works -- I don't think many ever outworked him in practice or during games -- but I did hate the fact that he was a constant flopper. And I'll second bri's thoughts on Fife...I wasn't a huge fan of his. Marco Killingsworth was a thug on the court, but he scored points...and I can't say I was a fan of his game. And if a player liked Brian Cardinal had played for IU, I doubt I would have liked him either. Edited by brumdog44, Nov 10 2009, 05:52 PM.
