The way the world works


I am a fan of the Oklahoma State University Men's basketball team.  They started the year in the Top Ten with visions of the Final 4. Lately they have lost 6 of the last seven games.

Consider the following:

1. As the conference season started, the starting center and leading rebounder went down with a season ending knee injury.  That's 20% of the starting team.

2. The backup point guard, (the number one Oklahoma recruit) is a freshman with much talent.  He has been arrested twice since December (once for drugs and once for outraging public decency).  He was dismissed.

3. The best player on the team and a lock for the NBA has been suspended for three games for shoving a fan. Another 20% of the starters.

SO-O-O-O Naturally It is the Coaches fault according to the Media and some fans.

We just love to persecute the innocent when none who gripe could do any better.
