Nah, FiliB gave Askew the stinkeye.

Oh great we have USC on ESPN. I think we all know what the narrative there will be.

Cal fucking up our defensive efficiency rating in that second half.

Thanks, Fishclamps! It was a pleasure to watch at home instead of finding a bar.

Captain Obvious: "We're OK, but it's also pretty pathetic that we can't stop a team like Cal from scoring over 80 points. Looks like we're in for another early exit from the tourney even though Tommy was supposed to have fixed our appalling defensive inability. Even though we suck the puss from the ass end of a dead rhinoceros, GO CATS."

A shame Lloyd couldn't clear the bench being up 28 at the half.

Reminds me of Lute calling off the dogs against Steve Lavin's Bruins since he was a likable coach.

Boswell's play over the last several games is an area of concern for me. Giving up 55 points in the second half to one of the worst teams if not the worst team in the conference is another area of concern. Back to Boswell, could he just be in a funk right now or is it a more systemic issue at play? Consistent PG play is a must and moving forward I'd like to see a little more improvement in Boswell's ball handling (too many turnovers) and confidence. Perhaps Love and Bradley will have to pick up the slack and essentially already have. To me Boswell has been more of a liability as of late and I hope this trend changes.

Boswell isn't very vocal and has bad breath and it concerns me. Being outworded in the second half by one of the dumbest teams and possibly the worst flossing team in the conference is another area of concern. Back to Boswell, could he just be pouting right now or is it a more systemic oral health issue at play? Consistent word play and noise-making is a must and moving forward I need to hear more improvement in Boswell's handle on the wordhole (too many live-mouth tongue tie-ups, gum-overs) and lisps. Perhaps Love and Bradley will have to pick up the allocution and essentially teach him about Cepacol, because Tommy sure isn't stepping up. To me Boswell has been much too mumble-prone as of late and I hope this trend changes. He's not 17 anymore. We have a few decent things going for us, I guess, but with our glaring lack of mouth discipline that Rhinoceros butt puss will kill us in the first Tourney round as usual. BEAR DOWN, LOSERS!

I remember reading about "concern trolling" several years ago. But I never saw it in action until Captain Obvious came along.

Is that just virtue signaling (t)rolled in fecal matter?
