If you watched a few years ago... you could tell Wes Johnson was going to be something special. No... it's not a sure fire thing as to determine who's good and who's bad. But neither is a single conference basketball game. It's entertainment where you can watch players from your favorite college team play. And you can see their athleticism and instincts on the court and it's fun to get excited about your team's players. I don't enjoy getting down about my team. Do I really care whether I was wrong for getting excited about somebody who doesn't pan out? NO... it doesn't change the fact that they did or didn't pan out. It just means I got to be happy for a while when I thought they would do great.Quote:

I enjoy being happy as much as possible and therefore choose option B.
That being said... I can always count on a few people to try as hard as they can to change my excitement to being miserable.
I think it's great when people tell me what I should and should not enjoy. They are usually called "wives" but I can get them here for free.

It's free and a close drive. Better than sitting on my butt on Sunday nights watching 60 minutes.
that was my point there bud...I go because I enjoy watching basketballQuote:

Good way to get an Iowa State fix until football season. Like seeing the new guys and see if the veterans have improved (such as it is). It's also a good way to stalk...er...watch Harrison Barnes.:smile:
As with any event, sometimes you get a hit, sometimes a miss. Movies, sports, concerts, etc etc. If you enjoy anything, good chance somebody doesn't understand why.Quote:
