Letter: Get off Rebels' case

I am very upset with all the armchair coaches we have in Las Vegas, including the media.

We have a basketball team that has won nine games and lost three -- which is a good record. But are you giving the team and the coach credit?

The Rebels were understandably nervous and anxious in playing third-ranked Cincinnati on its home court. Did you really expect them to win? It was no surprise (they lost).

Get off your high horse and support our team, win or lose.

-- BETTY GERMANO
