The injury-excuse meme begins anew for Sparty hoops

And this: "That definitely hurt our rotation, it hurt the way we were," Izzo said. Waaaahhhhh

Aw come on. I got really sick of the Izzo stuff last year because it was just non-stop and took over every thread, but complaining about injuries halfway through the first game of the season? That's pretty damn funny.

among Sparty fans. Lots of good posts to laugh at. The bowl predictions thread a few days ago where we kept confusing W.Michigan and C.Michigan with UM until we finally realized we weren't on the list was gold.

It sounds like Izzo and Trice were asked specific questoins about their rotation and they answered them. I see it as a legitimate question and answer session with nothing to "poke fun" at. It's not as if thee lost and and Izzo said "if we had our full rotation we would have won".

This seems an awful lot like what Michigan fans accuse MSU fans of, being obessed with your rival since there really isn't anything news worthy.

Except threads like this aren't necessarily common here. Yet, MSU message boards like their RCMB, may have about 1/3 or more of their posts being Michigan related at any given time. Then another 1/3 with topics akin to stuff like the massive shit they just took, while the rest being about Sparty athletics.

Here’s a gif of Izzo dancing on a ladder for you...
