Yes, last nite and today were not good days for sure. However, one thing about me is that I don't stay down very long. I just don't have it in my psyche. As disappointing as these last 3 losses were, and especially last night in K2, I am no longer disappointed in the team. I watched the game again tonight and it was a great game. It was even clearer to me the second time I watched the game how one-sided the reffing was in the last 7 minutes of the game. It was horrible. It was. Gray's 4th fould was a joke, and so was Rob's. Gray's came while fighting though a screen. Rob didn't do anything at all on his 4th. Anyway.
My point is that when I was watching the game again tonight I could see that Gonzaga is every bit as good as St. Mary's. We fought every bit as hard as they did, we played tougher actually. It was equal right down to the last shot. In my opinion the last two games were down to the last shot. It took a great shot by McConnel to beat the Zags.
The season goes on beginning tomorrow. Do the Zags quit and give up, like so many fans have now done? Or will they wake up tomorrow and start over with a new resolve? This team still has a chance, and if they don't believe that 100% then they are not Zags!!! And I know they are. It takes a certain type of character to rise up out of the ashes. St. Mary's did it last year, and the Zags are capable of doing it this year.
I hope people who blog here will stop talking about next year. PLEASE. Please!! I implore you to not give up so easily. It's easy to quit. It's the easiest thing in life. Take the tougher route and continue to believe with all you have. Take a risk and be a Kool-aid drinker. Buy a new pair of rose colored glasses. Whatever it takes, just try to find something inside yourself to NOT GIVE UP. NOT UNTIL THE VERY LAST SECOND OF THE LAST GAME.
Think of the positive things on this team, and there are many. Let's get our focus as fans back on to the positve things we can say about the team. If we hope the team turns things around starting tomorrow, let's also hope that we fans can do the same thing.
