MW vs. Jimmer

[Art Vandelay]

Hawt! I won't tell your counselors.

Oh they know where my allegiances lie, as does the SP. He called me after the FSU game just to make sure I was going to make it to church the next day.

Great. So now he should be compared to Andre Miller on the basis of one game. Do you know how many guys there have been since Miller, or are right now, in college basketball averaging 21 points a game, playing an almost invariably mediocre or crappy schedule, who haven't or won't experience much postseason success? That's right, as you imply, they're a dime a dozen. Last night was pretty bizarre to be sure, but it doesn't make a comparison to Andre Miller. Miller stood out against the best of the best, at the pinnace of college basketball, consistently.

This is typical BYU fan schlock. Just like when BYU fans were saying BYU's win over Oklahoma was the biggest in MWC history. Pretty soon we'll be hearing about how the NCAA should be enjoined to put him on the All-America team or give BYU at least a fifth seed. It's usually about then the hosue of cards starts to cave in.

49 points 9 assists and 7 rebounds.

I actually agree that comparison at this point is silly but somehow I think just posting his stat line again will somehow kill just one more hair follicle in your head, SU.

If he keeps putting up a half-century a game I would let him get to second base with me.

True story. I was at the movies. Jimmer comes in with his date late. Place is crowded, nowhere to sit. I told my wife I almost kicked her out to invite Jimmer to sit by me.

He can be compared to Miller. At this point, I would have to say that Miller had a better college career than Jimmer has had. That doesn't make it silly to compare the two. Comparing Ben Murdock to Miller is silly. Comparing Jimmer to Miller is establishing that Miller is a measuring stick for a guy like Jimmer and, if he can continue to perform and win games, he could end up better than Miller.

If pigs could fly.

Don't make me wait 12 years on you and throw this in your very old face. I'll do it. I'm just that crazy.

[SeattleUte]

Jimmer = Andre Miller. When pigs fly.
