Momma Mitchell engaged to that assistant now


Says he expects to stay at UMass but what else is he going to say?

So there it is. Hire Mitchell's step-dad and get a Top 5 Center in college basketball and maybe make a run at the NCAAT

Do you really need to keep repeating yourself to death? And opening new threads to do it? We get it for crissakes. You’re not going to wish this into existence by saying it every friggin day.

He’s the annoying drunk at the bar who bothers everyone because nobody wants to talk to him in real life

You ever hear Jim Rome talk about golf guy? Or likes to fight guy? Or corvette guy, softball guy, Gym guy, bowler with the wrist thing guy, or ncaa bracket guy?? They are funny as hell because his takes are all true. I can see SMF being NCAA bracket guy in a bar, telling everyone about the picks he predicted right in his bracket, bragging that he correctly predicted the 1/16 matchup (even thought everyone else in the country predicted the same thing) and how he’s in first place in his bracket poll even though he’s struggling in the other 10 he filled out. Memo to anyone who does this...No one freaking cares. I’ll tell you who else is annoying. Fantasy football Guy. If anyone here thinks it’s interesting to talk about you fantasy football team to strangers in a bar, it’s not. Don’t be that guy. Lol.

Is Jason Capel married? Maybe he could hook up with the mothers of some guys Pitt is recruiting.

This actually has me laughing today
as I read this thread. I've gotten to
the point that I firmly believe no
amount of bitching, making fun
of him, or proving him wrong is
going to deter SMF from posting
more of his nonsense and delusion
here. I don't think these comments
even bother him one bit.

I wish I knew him in real life. It would be interesting to meet someone with absolutely no self-awareness He doesn't seem like a bad guy, just someone wandering around in life conjuring up absurd ideas. I can imagine sort of a Peter Sellars-like movie character.

I don’t listen to much sports talk - but get the gist

My son and I have a running joke about the swing changes I’m making in golf- because nobody cares .
So he runs with it to annoy my wife .
And we laugh about it .

Clearly it’s not. I had no illusions that my post was going to be the one to make it stop

Don’t forget about poker guy. Who feels the need to provide painfully agonizing detail of dozens of hands and how he was just about to take over if it wasn’t for the bad beat.

I love to golf but understand absolutely nobody is interested in a play by play of 18 holes. I’d mention a hole out, an ace (obviously) and probably a new personal best score. But outside of that nobody cares. May not care about the other 3 I mentioned either but at least those don’t rise to the point where someone would stand themselves to get away. At least I hope not haha.

Normally, nobody cares what I shoot. But when I happen to have a really bad day, a handful of people will always seem to ask " how did you do today?". And for some reason, it would bother me to lie.

Well if someone asks that’s an entirely different ballgame. But even then you’ve got to read the room and respond accordingly. I love golf and can talk nerdy golf stuff. But I don’t need great detail if you shot 100. Anyone who shoots a great score I get the excitement and I’m a bit of a more willing audience. But there are tons of guys who jist don’t know when to quit.

I was on a golf trip years ago and had to hear how this guy couldn’t believe how far he hit an approach shot and flew the green. Talked about it all day and into the night. Probably 1 in a thousand strike on the sweet spot and he couldn’t stop talking about it. I wanted to strangle him.

Let me tell you about my 14 three putts- so if I fix that I’m golden !

I haven’t listen to Jim Rome in probably 15 years. Maybe longer. I know I haven’t listened to him since texting became prevalent. I remember when people faxed his show and then when it transitioned into emailing the show.

but golf guy, as I remember, wasnt about guys who play golf, it was about the guy who shows up on the first tee and crashes your threesome, with all of the gear from head to toe, who also has to have the most expensive clubs, and who always has to play from the tips because he wants to play the course the way the pros do. He’s the guy who lines up the putt from 1000 different angles, as though it matters to his 35 handicap. He’s the guy who talks about his expensive new clubs and how they lowered his handicap, and is also the guy who’s giving you pointers on your swing when he’s spending half the day in the water.

here it is here.
 
I love and respect SMF hey brings it 24/7 . Too bad you aholes don’t give him props


I give him props. As you say, he brings the delusion 24/7. And you have to at some level admire someone who is so sure that he was right about so many things that he got wrong. There's something to say for the sort of self-confidence that it takes for a guy who so obviously knows so little to keep after it no matter how often he's wrong. Most people who are as wrong as he is as often as he is would eventually give up. But not him. He knows he'll get the next one right, a decade plus track record be damned!

I hate to admit this dirty little secret but I do post some things to spice things up knowing it will be an unpopular take.

As someone who travels for a living, and that usually means many of nights/meals sitting at a bar having dinner, it is guys like that (or women) you just try to avoid eye contact with. I have been there and done that, and learned how to just play with the phone and stare at your plate/beer and try to avoid catching their eye.

I take back what I said about you having no self-awareness.

And you definitely spice things up. I can't imagine this board without you. Maybe better, maybe worse, definitely less interesting.

I don't mind meeting a guy like this if I'm drinking in a bar on the road. But I don't travel for business much. I can see where it would get old.

I've also always really liked those sports personalities who continually have contrarian or unpopular takes:

- Madden
- Filiponi
- Gottlieb
- Dakich

I know a lot of people hate these dudes but I think they are entertaining as heck

If you believe that he just does these things to spice things up then your post makes sense.

The chance that that is actually true is almost nil. He clearly believes, at the very least, 99% of what he posts.

Probably, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

I don't post things I don't believe but I do exaggerate sometimes. Case in point: when I say like its impossible to ever beat the SEC in recruiting, what I really mean is that they cheat most of the time so its really hard to outrecruit them but it can be done. Just a little more fun my way.
