Wow. This thread sure has expanded since my last visit.

I had my "fun" with Purdue earlier in this thread, but the importance this game has been way overblown by Notre Dame (aka Notre Dumb) fans. I don't see what's the big fuss. It's a game that took place in early December of 2006, not March of 2001. |
I don't think ND fans are blowing this out of proportion. It seems to me that it is the Purdue fans who can't handle the fact that this game turned out how it did. Personally, I am over this game and looking forward to the ones to come. I'm certainly not gloating because we won a game in Dec. against a good team.

1. Official suspended due to poor performance, including a controversial call giving Notre Lame the ball that helped turned a tide.

I never heard of this either. And how about the call when the ball clearly bounced off the PU players foot, but all the refs were out of position so they called a jump ball? I don't even remember which team got possession, but clearly, it nearly cost ND the game. (I'm being sarcastic for those who don't realize it.)
Quote: |
3. It's over, Notre Lame can look at their trophy surrounded by an insidious glow of controversy and, I guess, be proud of it.
The national championship trophy residing in Mackey Arena has no such black aura surrounding it. There were no controversial calls, no players staying in longer than they should have, etc. Purdue fans have a lot to be proud of with their championship. Notre Lame fans should realize how lucky their team got against Purdue. |
Hmm, I've seen the trophy, and I didn't see an insidious glow of controversy around it. I think PU fans are the only ones who think of that. And as for the lucky part, ND was 2-0 against PU that season. The other game they won rather convincingly (albeit at ND). I think PU was lucky that they were as close as they were that game. ND played rather poorly, and still won.
So yes, I will continue to be very proud of the 2001 ND team.

I'm gonna ditto.
Niele and Ruth were players of destiny that season. Ruth got it done in the end. To trash teams that win championships, and call it all luck is not cool in my eyes.
... and I'm a Duke fan first and foremost.

It probably helps to read the entire thread and not just the last page.
You'll have to take that "trashing of a NC" up with ILUVBIGTEN, as it was that poster who belittled Notre Dame's 2001 championship. National titles are difficult to win, so I don't downplay whomever wins one. Can't do that until your team gets one of its own.

I admittedly and unabashedly am defensive about that 2001 title. That was the year I was turned on to women's college basketball. Well, slightly before that (Folkl and Ivey were the two main sources of my interest because my sister went to the same high school as Ivey and I am a volleyball player like Folkl). But regardless, I did in fact read the whole thread, I just didn't think about the whole thread when responding. I am still defensive about Ruth and Niele. Anyhow, I don't need to explain how I feel about that title any further I suppose.
I guess I like a lot of teams in WCBB a lot, but at the top of the list has been Duke ever since I saw Alana Beard play for the first time.

My question to the Domers is this: If you are so proud of that trophy which you won -- I mean had Sally and June give to you -- why do you have it hidden in an obscure corner of the Joyce?

Ok, 00, maybe ONE fan has elevated this to historic proportions, just louder than all the others!

ND was the more mature team on the floor, even when they had two or three freshmen on the floor at a time.
Well, that and the new unis that ND came out in.

BTW, during the broadcast of the ND men's game tonight, they just mentioned the ND women's big win last night. Just wanted yoi to know how far the humilation is reaching!!!!
Regarding the NC issues, that was brought up by Kelli and yourself, not the Purdue fans, as I re-read.
Also, there seems to be one or two equally loud Purdue fans, not the majority that perpetuate this crap.

Interesting. That's similar to what I was going to post to you instead of just thanking Golden33 for saving me the trouble.
I think that it you go back and (re)read the entire thread, you will see that ND fans are, for the most part, simply responding to a couple of Purdue fans comments. I know that all of mine are. In my response to Daniel (my first post in ths thread), I used "Purdidn't) in response to ILUVBIGTEN 's post saying "No congrats to Notre Lame from me. They didn't stop Purdue, the Boilermakers stumbled themselves.

I do love my Irish, but I'm thrilled as well for the great start that Ball State and IU have had so far this season.
My Christmas wish is great victories for all my Indiana teams.
My beloved Irish have a long ways to go for another great season as they had in 01, changes need to come about in the land of the Domers.
PU, this is one more chance at another great year and I wish you all the best.

**As stated above, the "Purdidn't" was in response to ILUVBIGTEN's use of "Notre Lame".

** Posted in response to PurdueBBall3's "I'll chime in here. Where as my team stumbled against a team that sucks, your team just sucks. My team will rise through this. Your team will still just suck. The better team (my team) lost to the worse team (your team). Any given night, bucko. And your team still sucks."
Regarding the NC issues, that was brought up by Kelli and yourself, not the Purdue fans, as I re-read.
** Actually, the FF stuff was begun by ILUVBIGTEN's signature, that has since been changed. If you missed or have forgotten it, it listed the number of FF's, Elite Eight's, and Sweet Sixteen's that Purdue had been to and the number that ND has been to.

I think pretty much everything is hidden in an obscure corner of the JACC. It's kinda a cruddy old building. Although relatively speaking, the trophy is not hidden at all. It just depends on what entrance you come in. It's the first thing you see once you come up the stairs if you enter through the student entrance.

The thread from hell that never ends.
More than a few comments from both Purdue and Notre Dame fans that are embarrassing...I can't wait for this slow period of games to end.

It's a game that took place in early December of 2006, not March of 2001. Purdue is, at the very LEAST, a Sweet 16/Elite 8 team this season while Notre Dame is headed to the WNIT barring a miracle run through the Big East. Beating a Top 10 team in early December is nice, but come back and talk to me after the Big East season is complete. When you're competitive with UConn, Marquette, DePaul, Louisville, Pitt, South Florida, and even Rutgers, West Virginia, and Seton Hall (yes, the team that beat you down last season), then you Notre Dame fans are free to crow. Until then, shut up and act like you've been here already. This isn't the first time you've beaten Purdue and it won't be the last. |
HALLELUJAH AND AMEN. May this thread rest in peace.

My parting comment, too freaking funny that the two Purdue fans who have prolonged and anagonized everyone, who have caused all the trouble, and have acted like three year old assholes, are the two seeking a disclaimer for others.
My wish for the new year is the two of you crawl back under the rock you came from , disappear to the little Purdue and Big Ten hell you emerged from, and vanish forever from this board.
Have a merry freaking Christmas, and leave good PU fans like Matty, des, etc. alone. Don't include them in your little fraternity of hatred.
