Or has this basketball season been the most forgettable … bland … unexciting … apathetic … non important, uninspiring … I don’t have the perfect word for it. Irrelevant, perhaps?
We are, what, 3-3 with no good wins, a couple bad losses …
Of course the cancelled game … as it should have been in light of the tragedy … that takes precedence and should have been cancelled … but given we were a 10 point underdog, not playing well, without a key player … record wise, could be sitting at 3-4.
But there is ZERO excitement, anticipation … we have a game tomorrow against a really bad team, should be a win … but how many people actually care? Looking at our crowds this year … really, really bad. … again, I do consider that a good barometer of program health, not record. It’s very slow growth Marvish right now … have we sunk lower than Marv? I never thought it was possible, not in my worst dreams could UNLV have more empty seasons than Marv. I don’t think it’s that bad, but at this point, I don’t know?
Still a lot of basketball left. I don’t have a good feeling, I don’t know anybody that does. People that have any sort of confidence seem to be the type that should be in solitary confinement with a straight jacket on. I know several people here pumped things up a bit, myself, I thought we would be a 5th place, potential NCAAT fringe type of team … and that’s so far off it’s not even funny. I really missed, sure, a lot of hoops left … but man, oh man.
I have to check daily if there’s a game going on later. That’s insane to me. I used to be able to rattle off every date and location with ease.
Somebody mentioned watching the Rebels is like heading to the old folks home to watch a loved one with Alzheimer’s .. that’s harsh for anybody that has experienced it, but it is what it feels like.
