    You brought up 23 wins all last year, and you've needled Nikolokous several times about Mike Conley. You do the same exact thing.

    Um last year, he made a bet and didn't pay me. I talked about our bet which was 20 wins by All Star break. Nik is wrong on so much, it's hard not to point it out. I'm only guilty of hoping the best for my team and if they want to block me, they can. I'm still following Nik but HCP is dead to me.

    So I should pick the losers? I did pick upsets for Michigan and Oregon. Besides that, it doesn't take much thought to do basic math.

    And thought Dame would get worse without Aldridge. The list goes on and on.

    I don't think he ever said Dame would get worse, I think he claimed the team would be better if we still had Aldridge. We probably would be better with Aldridge on this roster, but we also wouldn't have this roster or last seasons roster had LA re-signed here, so the argument doesn't really make sense.

    I might be wrong, but I said Dame was going to struggle and have to work harder to put up the same or better numbers because we lost 4 of our starters. What was I thinking? Can't believe I went out on such a limb. All we had coming back was an unproven CJ and bench players. Wonder why I claimed we'd only win 23 games like the experts did. What was I thinking? What was YOUR excuse JINX? #64Wins

    That is still the same thing - no matter how you slice it.

    You said 64 wins, and you were wrong. Nik has said things that were wrong. It happens. Just don't say it's okay for you to do it but not others. That's not fair. If you can do it to others, it's only fair to expect things you were wrong about to be brought up.

    You should quit working up at the Plaid Pantry and write books on relationships and communication. I'd buy one FAMS!

    You still won't let that shit go? Jeez dude. That shits fine with. Most on.

    And you're wrong on a lot of stuff too, but you call out anyone who disagrees with you and is wrong over and over again. Yhen complain when they do the same. It's hypocritical.

    He said Dame would get worse because he wouldn't have Aldridge commanding double teams.

    I'm starting to pull away. If Ducks win it all, I'm good.

    Kansas traditionally chokes in big games.
