I don't know when I've seen a clearer case of the referees
totally missing a game-deciding call. By all rights Vanderbilt
pulled the upset last night, but it's Georgetown that's going
to advance. Tough luck.

And this has WHAT to do with flyfishing?

Did you post to the wrong group?

Ok, so the "OT:" in the subject line managed to escape your comprehension.

Don't brag about it...

Chuck Vance is a regular poster here, a college basketball fan
and a Vanderbilt alum. And the post is clearly marked OT for
Off Topic.

I have two suggestions for you, the first is to read this:

http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/~jcook/ROFF/

and the second is **** off and go back to lurking, you anonymous
piece of ****.

Mmm, my post actually had two points. Firstly, one of the problems with
this group, in my opinion, is that there is too much OT content - and not
all of it is marked as such. My view, for what it's worth, is that it would
be better if it was a flyfishing group, pure and simple. But then, thats a
logical approach and I know that you have little time for, or understanding
of, logic. Others may debate my view but you, I am sure, will dismiss it
out of hand

Secondly, a cruel trick, for which I apologise to other participants. I
wondered just how much (or little) it would take to show you up as the crude
and foul mouthed bully that you appear to be. Well; not much, it seems!

The good news from your point of view is that I am going to take some of
your advice. I am about to leave this group, forever. To me it's not much
of a loss, although I will miss some of the advice and comment from those
contributors who do post meaningful and logical information. That includes
Mike O'Connor.

If I may leave you with a little advice. Don't bother to reply to this post
because I will never see it. The next key strokes after sending this post
will remove this group from my listings. If you respond in your normal way,
it will only serve to diminish you in the eyes of other members
........................................... if that's possible.

completely distinct from Mike Connor.

That's OK. The refs missed it, but I didn't even see it myself
until they ran the replay in slow-slow motion. I'm proud of the boys;
they had some great wins this season, and this one just wasn't meant
to be.

And the good news is now I get to say that Vandy is at least as
good as Nawth Cackalacky. :-)
