  1. As in this crap. I just wish they would at least get the facts right, As much as I can't stand the guy http://www.ibtimes.com/who-bobby-metzinger-cardinals-fan-arrested-after-tweeting-world-series-bomb-threats-references "A St. Louis Cardinals fan was arrested Friday after he insinuated, police say, that he would bomb the World Series to keep the Boston Red Sox from defeating his favorite team."
  2. I'm just tired of all the headlines around the interweb being "Cardinals fan Bobby Metzinger yatta yatta". He's a diehard Yankees guy who hates the Red Sox and lives in STL. As much as I hate the Cards' Unicorn and best fan tomfoolery(spoken from a cards fan), don't throw him in with us.
  3. At least the NSA won't be tapping every piece of electronics he purchases from now until forever...
  4. yah just google saint louis university and there's his face
  5. The thing I hate is they usually just RT some dipshit racist 16 year old guy from the suburbs.
  6. I'm pretty confident he will never get a job again.
  7. Can we ban him again permanently? yah know for the sake of SLU and the message board and our sanity? I'm hoping they don't pull up old billikens.com archived posts of his.

  9. That would be the only explanation. This tomfoolery has gone on long enough. He's cost us , what, 3 games this year single handedly. Lets get the WAR for him
  10. wait, how long ago were people saying Daniel LIsch got a raw deal? The kid got a free year of college and to learn from one of the best coaches ever. I'd sure like to reopen this. Direct me to 5 year old threads so we can properly discuss
  11. I'm generally against all slurs. I just don't like them. That being said, Louis CK standup on that word is hilarious.
  12. Yeah the comments on there are damning, as well. Dustin McGuire's parents wrote a big long comment about how RM forced him out.
  13. Jim Crews, Saint Louis Billikens I think Crews will have a breakout sophomore season because I really likeDwayne Evans' chances to have a breakout senior season. Evans plays much larger than his listed height of 6-foot-5 would suggest. He crashes the glass at both ends of the floor, makes no less than 57 percent of his 2s, and hits better than 75 percent of his free throws. And that's just for starters. I'll go even further. If you're looking for a quick-and-dirty thumbnail of what Saint Louis could be in 2013-14, you could do worse than Wichita State last season. Like the Shockers in 2011-12, the Billikens last season were much better than a lot of people realized, but lost earlier than expected in the NCAA tournament anyway. (Recall that in the 2012 tournament, Wichita State lost in the round of 64 to Virginia Commonwealth.) And, like Gregg Marshall's team, SLU may be merely about as good as it was the previous season, but may achieve a much better result in the field of 68. True, Crews will have to replace Kwamain Mitchell and key reserve Cody Ellis, but Evans,Mike McCall, Rob Loe and Jordair Jett are all back for another go. In fact, Crews is apparently so confident in his personnel that he told redshirt freshman Jared Drew that there was no further need for the young man's services. That's a tough break for Drew (not to mention a somewhat unseemly visual coming from Crews), but the level of returning talent is good news for Billiken fans. SLU had far and away the best defense in the Atlantic 10 last season, one that held conference opponents to just 0.92 points per possession. Stretching back to the tenure of Rick Majerus, playing Saint Louis has always been an ordeal for opposing offenses. That ordeal will continue unabated in Crews' sophomore campaign, and the Billikens will be a threat to reach their first Sweet 16 since (yes, this really is correct) 1957. Talk about a breakout.
