I get your bitterness. Really, I do.

I mean look - a WSU fan starts a "look at me" thread to brag about your new scoreboard. Then, much to a WSU fan's chagrin, someone posts a story about Creighton's (the school which WSU fans stew about over all others) new scoreboard, which dwarfs the one WSu just bought. To make matters worse, the new WSU scoreboard is close in size to the scoreboard that the CenturyLink Center is replacing. Plus, neither Creighton nor the taxpayers of Omaha had to pay one cent for the thing.

In reaction, you go in another thread and post that no one could have ever seen the Big East split coming, when pretty much everyone with a pulse already predicted exactly that years ago.


I'd probably be bitter too.

Your old video screens measured 10'x13' and had 23mm LED spacing. Our new video screens measure 12'x15' wide with 6mm LED spacing. So our new screens have 38% more square footage than your old screens. In fact, our new screens will be slightly taller than your new screens. That's pretty significant considering the comparative sizes of the two venues. Daktronics rates 6mm LED spacing as "close viewing" and 4mm as "ultra-close viewing". I suspect the difference in quality will be hard to perceive from the greater distances most Creighton fans will be from the scoreboard. In short, Shocker fans will be treated to very large HD screens next season that will seem much bigger in person than the screens in the Century-Link Center.

You seem to be short on facts and long on troll. Why not dial it back a bit?

Would you trade your new scoreboard in for a Final 4 appearance?

That hyphenated 's' you're using after 'Creighton' implies ownership. Creighton does not own a scoreboard or an arena. Creighton rents an arena that happens to have a new scoreboard.

Not that I don't get it. I'm sure you're used to bragging about things other people own. The scoreboard. The arena. The success of Big East programs. The work your landlord does on the house you rent.

I'd like to provide you with further grammatical help regarding the possessive form of a noun:

WSU's second Final Four
Creighton's second round loss. Again.
WSU's NCAA Tournament West Regional Trophy
Creighton's Arch Madness trophy
WSU's #4 national ranking
Creighton's #21 national ranking
Coach Marshall's winning record over Coach McDermott
Coach McDermott's payments for his son's tuition
WSU's Charles Koch Arena
Creighton's rental contract
WSU's scoreboard
Creighton's bus to get to someone else's arena to view someone else's scoreboard
WSU's five appearances to the Sweet 16 or better of the NCAA tournament
Creighton's lack of ever winning two consecutive games in the NCAA tournament
WSU's NIT Championship
Creighton's 5-10 NIT record, and zero consecutive wins in program history
WSU's 52% success rate in the NCAA tournament
Creighton's 36% success rate in the NCAA tournament
WSU's national success
Creighton's desire to latch onto the national success of others to claim relevance for itself

Such bitterness. It must have been so humiliating watching us do so well after your own program flamed out yet again. What are you going to do in another year when you've watched your program waste a three year All American without making a single Sweet 16?

Keep wasting your time arguing on a message board for a conference you aren't a part of anymore. It's actually pretty hilarious that after all the claims I've seen from you about Creighton over WSU, the best you folks can do now is trying to say the scoreboard in the arena you rent is bigger, or claiming the success of teams in a conference you haven't played a game in yet.

Considering you have no relevance to the Valley or this message board anymore, your post oozes with 1000x more bitterness topped with a fresh dash of irony.

Ouchies. :lol:

The hell with a Final 4 appearance. All you had to do was say 'Sweet 16' and it still would have zinged.
