The Gophers have lost so many close basketball games that they recently hired a shrink, hoping he'd find a remedy for their mental breakdowns with the game on the line.

Gophers coach Tubby Smith brought in Jim Cremin, a self-described "hoops guru," before his team's victory over Wisconsin last week to improve its waning confidence following a 3-7 stretch.

Cremin told players to use "positive affirmation" and envision good outcomes in tough stretches, said senior co-captain Damian Johnson.

Unbelievable. You would think that Tubby would know enough to bring in a couple of posters from GH.
 



"I think it helped a lot," Johnson said about the team's meeting with Cremin.

I wonder what he would have said if Illinois had come down and made a three pointer to win it?

"Losing is a disease, as infectious as syphilis"

+1 :clap::clap::clap:

Classic "The Natural" line.


The mind is a strange thing, men.

We must begin by asking it...

..."What is losing?"

Losing is a disease...

...as contagious as polio.

Losing is a disease...

...as contagious as syphilis.

Losing is a disease...

...as contagious as bubonic plague...

... attacking one...

... but infecting all.

But curable.

Now, I want you to imagine...

...you are on a ship at sea...

...on a vast...


:D
 

I remember the movie w/Robert Redford in "The Natural," sure hope it wasn't that guys grand child.
