Chase nailed it. It makes absolutely no sense that I care about this stupid game as much as I do. I have a beautiful wife, three wonderful kids, a good job, a great family, and my health. Yet here I am pissed off about a game played by a bunch of teenagers I've never met and who don't even know I exist. What a dumbass.
Cal's not "lazy" in the sense that he sleeps til noon and lets his assistants run practices. He is "lazy" in the sense of he's no longer employing an innovative style of play and no longer running a one of a kind program and he doesn't seem to be as pissed off and motivated by losses as he used to. The "burn your village" guy is gone. It's semantics, really. Whether it's considered "lazy" or "behind the times," I think everybody's talking about the same thing.
What gets me is the "too cool for school" ******** that he does. The fear is that he'll never change because changing would be an admission that he was wrong, which he'll never do. Even the one time he basically did admit that he'd been doing things wrong for an entire season (the "tweak" in 2014) he tried to turn it around and tell the media and fans how dumb they were and how smart he was because they weren't "basketball bennies" and didn't understand the nuances of the game the way he did.
I was halfway expecting a loss at UF Saturday, so win that one and we're right back where I thought we'd be anyway though in the end it doesn't really matter because this group ain't winning a title and we're all going to die anyway go cats.
