Other random Astros/UH Basketball connection, longtime Astros trainer Rex Jones, is a season ticket holder. He sits 4 rows behind me. I’ve seen Steve Sparks at a few games too.
That perspective is the ultimate loser. We have plenty to celebrate and be proud of this season. Go tell CKS that he’s “first loser” and it’s unacceptable for him to celebrate.
Was Jones the guy with the mustache?
Yes
Out of all the terrible takes about our basketball team this year, this is probably the worst one I’ve seen yet. What a terrible way to look at anything, let alone sports.
Seriously? Wow. So…
Kelvin Sampson, you are hearby to never be celebrated since you are only a “top rated loser” as a “competitor”. After all, you’ve never won a national championship, so please cease and desist from bringing any positive shine on what is clearly a season of complete disappointment. Decline the invite from the Astros - geeez - what’s wrong with you Kelvin? If you have any competitive bone left in your body, go crawl into a fetal position and cry your way through the entire off season so some folks can avoid feeling torn. Its the only way to prove you care.
And same for all you Coog basketball fans. Stop feeling so happy about the repeating 30-win seasons, sweet 16 appearances, being one play away from being national champs just a few weeks ago. Wipe that smile off of your faces. No pride allowed! No joy for anything in the last 100 years.
I know, I know… you didn’t go that far. But it kind of feels like it in a way.
In all seriousness, I assure you that you’re not alone in hoping for our Coogs to take that final step. But to feel torn about showing appreciation along the journey just seems extraordinarily self-penalizing to me. Soak in this golden era. Even if we don’t win it all, there is still a ton worthy of celebrating.
In attendance for tonights Astros Game. Looks like the whole team except:
*LJ Cryer, Milos Uzan, Terrance Arceneaux & Mylik Wilson
Is Javier coming back?
No, hes out of eligibility.
Just enjoying the last moments with the team before he turns pro
We’ll see if LJ, Milos & Mylik are there Wednesday night at Fertita Center
Sampson said on the TV broadcast that this was the first time a bunch of those guys had ever been to an MLB game.
Man I was hoping to see the entire team. I guess if Milos isn’t there then that means he gone?
I think Milos doesn’t want to be associated with a loser anymore
No, it means he’s training in Las Vegas.
Idk finishing 2nd out of 360+ teams is pretty damn good. Winning the B12 is pretty good also. If you don’t think that’s worth celebrating then don’t. But don’t act like it means you’re somehow a better person than the rest of us. Lol
Be glad he’s behind you… can you imagine trying to watch the game from behind that mustache?
“The only people that matter is your family and your team”. Well said coach.
School is still in session.
Right. And they still attend remotely like they have practically all semester.
I have seen a lot of success punctuated by failure. I was a student during PSJ and have seen pretty much everything but a National Championship. It doesn’t mean the program isn’t in a phenomenal place now and that is fantastic, but I want that last piece to the puzzle. If you want to settle for less that is up to you. If you lower the bar you will always meet it.
