Wow....monumental choke by Butler.

[FreddyBrown]

Nice call 83.

 

[DDThompson]

Why the title?

It's not a choke to give up a lead.

 

[Thawki]

Is it name calling if I call 83Hawk a fool...

..for posting about how Butler choked?

 

[GhostofBTT]

Now my friend here wants to choke someone...

 

[ShadasRevenge]

Blew a 10 point lead in 3 minutes.

I'm sure by now that you've been reminded more than once that Butler won the game with a 9-2 run of their own over the last three minutes.

Thank God Butler got 83 Hawk's approval. The NCAA basketball world can now continue

I think the word "monumental" is the best part of his post.

Really... you expect us to believe that you post about them "choking" and you didn't think they'd blow the game when you started the post. Give me a break. I may have born at night, but not last night. Whatever... hold your juice until you REALLY have something to post about. Butler's in the final four... our beloved Hawks are a long way from making the same statement.

Are you always this premature?

I don't give a crap what you believe. Choking doesn't necessarily mean losing. Maybe it does to you, but not to me. Name one thing in my post that wasn't true.

1. Blew a 10 point lead....fact.
2. Did it in 3 minutes...also fact.

Per the Merriam-Webster dictionary:

Choke:

"to lose one's composure and fail to perform effectively in a critical situation"

Had I said "they choked the game away" then you would be right to pile on. But I didn't, so stuff it. The dictionary agrees with me.
