So yeah, some of us DO want to see a fellow B1G team win over a Big East team. If the B1G can win a few titles, even when it's not us... finishing in the top 3 gives the impression of an actual accomplishment. Not just a "Awww... how nice for you! (Big fucking deal, cause you guys can't win shit when it counts)"
The more titles B1G teams win, the more the top players will want to play in the conference. Maybe a better chance WE can pull in those 5* players, too. Then maybe WE start winning titles.
Frankly, I don't understand all the people always wanting all our other conference brethren to fail in the tourney. Then the conference looks bad, and all our accomplishments look like shit. What decent player will want to play in such a shit conference?? It's so short-sighted.
The most difficult thing in the world is
to know how to do a thing and
watch someone else doing it wrong,
without commenting.
