I still hate Gary Parish

Recent email I sent to Gary about an article he wrote in which he was mad Maryland received 1 vote for the Top 25...

Your opinion about Maryland receiving votes will change after they beat Duke on the 27th. The Top 25 is so much more a reflection of how a team is playing now vs. what they've done in the past. You're not making your poll as if Maryland lost to American this week. That was several weeks ago. Face it Gary, despite your hatred of Maryland, they're playing better and better as the season goes on. Granted, they're probably not a top 25 team yet, especially with 7 losses, but I thought the Top 25 was based on how teams have come together to this point in the season? Maryland is not the same team that lost to American. Gist is playing like a All-ACC senior forward, Osby stepped it up, Vasquez is controlling himself more, Milbourn is finally finding his roll and the bench has played great, especially with the recent play of Bowie and Cliff Tucker. And they've done this without Eric Hayes being 100%/not playing. This team is better now Gary. If you just beat the team everyone thought was #1, and on their home court, you're clearly playing good basketball to this point, and probably deserve some consideration for the top 25, which is why I don't have a problem with Maryland receiving 1 vote thus far. They should be allowed to continue to climb as long as they continue to win. What will you do if they beat Duke on the 27th Gary? Still talk about the loss to American and Ohio? Teams can either get better as the season goes on or get worse. We'll learn a lot about Maryland on Sunday. If they keep up this play, they should continue to receive more and more votes. They've proven they can hang with the best though Gary. Give credit where credit is due and give this team SOME respect, especially if they continue to win.
