Cougarboard would give him a pass for several "meh" seasons in a row. The amount of leeway Rose gets on this forum for Bronco-like results is remarkable.

Rose could get run out of the Huntsman Center tomorrow by 20 points (something I fervently hope does NOT happen) and most Cougarboarders would be making excuses for him Thursday morning. Or they'd focus their anger on Fischer or Toolson or whichever player is the CB Scapegoat du Jour. It's amazing.
