<p>Good grief, What a downer. I guess I'll have to start looking at
this team as a total disaster. Give up completely and send my
season tickets back. As Dennis said, I'll try to back off the
edge. Deep breath, life is still good. There that feels better. <br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Relax, fair weather fans. The ship
will right itself. There's a lot of talent on this team,
although they're obviously out of syc at the monent. Fran
has done a good job bringing us back from the depths of
the Lick years. He has been successful everywhere he's
been. He has a good staff and they've recruited well the
last few years. But if it makes you feel better to whine,
bitch, complain and crucify the coach, so be it. If you
can't step back from the edge...then jump! Who needs you
anyway?</span></p>

assume because he has two sons
committed to the Hawks we are stuck
with Fran for a few more years. But
he has proven nothing in his six
years and this season looks like it
could be his worst team yet. His
Philly personality is contrary to
“Iowa nice” and hence I am joining
the others and checking out of Iowa
men’s BB. Even the announcers
tonight were saying “terrible
defense”, “awful offense” about the
Iowa team.</span></p>
