I disagree.  There is nothing arguable about it, it is his dumbest move ever.

You lost me there, bud.  If the UM players had proclaimed that they would crush
MSU even without Turco, then you'd have a point.  But one player making a
mistake does not make the whole team arrogant.  It's not like they planned it
so that they could beat MSU without their starting goalie.  If jumping to
erroneous conclusions was an olympic sport, you'd win a platinum medal.

By "they" you must mean "Turco?"

So you are accusing UM players of being motivated by nothing but money?  Where
*do* you come up with this stuff?
