Complaining – About Anything and Everything

[NJFlyr71]

Although I can see that portion of being a FAN is the right to swing from being ecstatic to having a downright complaint filled tirade, some seem to live in the realm of being gloom filled almost about everything.

First, life’s too short to look on the downside for too long. And second, the action taken in looking for something to complain about seems a waste of time.

Constructive criticism is one thing tempered in moderation, another if the only way to communicate. Criticism with no alternative construct is a way to label you as … an _itch (none gender specific of course).

So I thought I’d make fun of some of the things that posters can or may have registered as a complainer (valid or not) and in a strictly humorous context I present these possibilities (in no particular rank) :

I hate where they have the HOF ceremony in the middle of a basketball game!

If it wasn’t for AG we’d be 16-0 right now!

I can’t believe that Chip didn’t get a triple double, whats up with that?

What the heck happened to those lasers?

The Blackburn court is too bright for my eyes.

Does everyone in the 100 and 200 sections have to wear a dam sweater , I mean all that mothball smell, really?

We’ve only won 2 games in Philly? Come On!

I just wish we could play on MLK day just once an awhile! It'd be great for ____! (Fill in blank here)

I still can’t get over that winged D logo, there wasn’t much thought put into that idea was there?

The team is sharing the ball too much don’t they understand Obi should be the only one shooting the rock?

Why is Trey playing anyway?

The beers are too warm!

The beers are too cold!

The placement of the cup holders are in the way.

Don’t you just love the new Subaru Forester? You know the one labeled Forester Ultimate Customized Kit Special edition, or F.U. …well, you get it, don’t you? Heh! I do like that!

Speaking of cars, don’t get me started on the parking fiasco!

So vent if you must, but try to look on the bright side pretty soon the off season will start!

About that Subaru..

[OSU Flyer]

I'm not much of a Subaru guy myself

[flyerfanatic86]

I've always thought we need more quality UD bobbleheads, besides the occasionalnew Rudy every 5 years or so.

[Jeff]

Lasers, lasers, lasers!

SHARKS WITH FRIGGIN LASERS.

[OSU Flyer]

and what's the deal with airline travel

[Brad S.]

Don't even get me started with those &@#% kids who won't stay off my lawn!

My da** VCR is still flashing 12:00 except that the 2 is burned out.

[Fudd]

The digital alarm clock on my nightstand has a "bright" and "dim" setting for the display. The "dim" setting is still super bright. I feel like I am trying to sleep with a 100,000W search flood light on me. I turn it face down on my nightstand to get rid of the glare, but then I wake up and wonder what time it is.

I'm stuck in a cycle of endless torment.

[ud2]

The site time on udpride was finally fixed, it was off by an hour or 2 for a real long time.

[Fudd]

Every time I search to see what date and time the last post in a thread was made, I can't see it because it is white text on a very light baby blue ribbon background. Arrrgh!

[jack72]

My esspresso machine broke yesterday after only 14 years... cheap imported crap.

[UDGutter2]

Being told I'm grumpy when I'm not grumpy makes me really, really grumpy.

Have you tried counseling for your issues?

There aren't enough therapists in the world to deal with my issues. The only tried and true method is Miller Lite et al.....

No not a queen, as he's a real King; but he does suffer from "Pole Envy" That explains the excessive over compensation. Let's just say the situation is kind of "Harry" like. It's just too darn hard to divorce your Royal Family. Especially when he knows everything there is to know about sixth grade girls basketball.

I know I could Wri(gh)te (Chris), and get, a Grant (Anthony) to solve that problem.

I would like to offer an Olive Branch (Ken) to the best flag waiving fan in the history of UD Basketball...Thirt, who's been a little ****ed at me for a few years.

I am so sorry for not suffering from "Group Think"; and for mentioning that Brian Gregory is a very mediocre college basketball coach; and all the other things I have been (w)right (Chris again); but then NJFlyer71 could just build a Wal(eskowski) and hide behind it.

And King Rollo, I hope for the queen's sake, you get some help for your Freudian "Johnson" (the other Chris) problem. But if that doesn't help get a little freudian s(l)ip of Miller (Morgan that is).

Is it game time yet?????????????

GO FLYERS BEAT rams!

	Brian Gregory BRIAN GREGORY UD Men's Basketball Head Coach since 2004. Groomed by the likes of Judd Heathcoate and Tom Izzo at Michigan State, as well as Kevin O'Neill and others, Gregory's defensive-minded leadership has led Dayton to NCAA and multiple NIT appearances. A good recruiter, BG has elevated the athleticism of the squad in recent years and kept top area talent at home. Still looking for that breakthrough season with his own players that catapult him to the NCAA tourney. Graduated from Oakland University.

And what’s up with those “First Class Airline” seats that are cluttering up the old concourse? I used to be able to duck-out the exit under Section 309, and get right into the men’s room. Now I need to fight all the people who are in line at the concession stand behind Section 215!

Are those Airline seats full yet? The bright orange reflection of empty seats is like the sun shinning inside the arena.

Not that I’ve noticed. I’ll take a glance tonight, just to see.
