I am to old to have a son playing. But nice try, trying to discredit me in that way. I am a huge basketball fan and have seen hours, days, weeks and years of basketball. I've played, coached, ref'd, watched and seen just about everything when it comes to basketball and never had I seen what occurred. So, I invested my time to see how rare it was. Not that I have much else to do.
As was mentioned, thats how the vote went. I would truly like to know why. Since, its never happened before. Seems like a valid question. If you don't question history, you're bound to repeat it. I do support the Sycamores but if you look back at my comments you'll see that I made no pitches for any Sycamore player.
This isn't a self serving agenda but one searching for fairness, equality and sportsmanship which for whatever reason didn't occur. I also would like to apologize to Mr. Weems for using him to validate my point. It was never my intention to belittle him. I think he is a fantastic player. He just didn't have a great tourney. If he had, MSU would have went to the dance.
My goodness.
How was the process unfair? A large voting panel of basketball writers, columnists and radio personalities -- representing all 10 MVC schools -- and many regional and national media unaffiliated with any school, voted. There is nothing unfair about that.
Equality? This isn't little league. Everyone doesn't have to win an award. Every team had an equal chance to advance to the tournament final. There's your equality.
Sportsmanship? Did anyone act in an unsportsmanlike manner during the tournament? I didn't see it. I'm not sure what sportsmanship has to do with a media vote.
You happened to disagree with the result. That's all this is about. This isn't some noble crusade for righteousness.
