There are two reasons it is hard to be a Michigan State Basketball fan.
First of all, Dick Vitale announces almost all of your nationally televised games. And he never talks about MSU or the game. He rambles about Duke, or his charities or Duke or the other team or the students (girls) that love him. And he never shuts up talking about things other than MSU. Listening to Dick Vitale makes me want to kill myself.
The other problem with being an MSU fan is MSU. They are so darn inconsistent.
The only two things that are constant with MSU are that they play great in March Madness and you have no idea how they will play during the season. They never win the Big 10. They rarely do well in the Big 10 tournament. But somehow they keep ending up in the Final 4.
As a fan, its just plain nerve racking to watch them during the season. One night they play awesome. The next night they play like ass. Some nights they do both in a single game!
The worst part of this season is that they have the best team they've had in years. And they are still totally inconsistent. Some games are great and then they lose to Iowa and Penn State.
This week, they lost two games in a row. Against Purdue they played like ass, then they played awesome, then they lost. Tonight, they just played like ass. Clearly they dont know how to handle a zone defense.
Ugh... Where is the alka seltzer. Its a long way to March...
