  1. So we shouldn’t be surprised because we were heavy underdogs in those games. But Coach, why are we still heavy underdogs?!
  2. I just have the little Honda Inverter Generator that I bring to tailgate. It’ll run some fans, a tv, and the fridge. I test it in June every year before football season so it’s ready for that and hurricanes. This year it ran rough and stalled. After a couple YouTube videos I cleaned my first carburetor!
  3. Lived in St. Pete for 35 years and have evacuated twice: Charley and Irma. Both times we went to our friend’s house in Lakeland. Both times it missed St. Pete and went through Lakeland where we lost power. This time we did absolutely every last thing to evacuate other than pack the car with suitcases and stuff we staged in the garage. Once we saw the first shift to the south, and another, and then the third, we called it off. Again, the house in Lakeland just got power back last night, and it never flickered here in St. Pete. But I’ll never get complacent. These things can wreak havoc, and did I mention my elevation is only 7 feet?
  4. Should be a good game now that the Cards have got the point spread out of the way.
  5. I hate that there a couple kids hanging their heads pretty low after that ending, but man - almost every other key player has to be feeling A LOT more confident about what they can do.
  6. Kudos to the fans that went. They were well heard during the broadcast!
  7. Fixed it for you. But any other win this season is reason to dance.
  8. Good event again. I went last year and this year, and I’ll tell you what - those kids come to the table smiling, reaching out first to shake your hand, and are very engaging. I don’t know if they just happen to be that way or if Coach preps them very hard before hand, but frankly I don’t really care. The fact is that they present themselves as fine gentlemen.
  9. Probably because it's not on campus. I just hope the money spent building and operating these additions to their brewery doesn't make them cancel their naming rights to the BB stadium. These aren't good times to lure another sponsor...
  10. That’s awesome. I heard people talking about this coming out of Batman!
  11. Yeah but did the news get delivered by the head coach that time? i can almost picture it like this: CJS: So here’s a little somethin’ we did at Clemson…. Administration: Well you can be the one the one to tell ‘em.
  12. I’m pretty sure it was the 2007 WVU game, which at this point seems closer to the debut of Nancy’s song than today.
  13. Trivia Question - in what game were the boots first worn? (I’m pretty sure I know this one)
  14. I'm sure glad I work for a company that looks at other things than just results when it comes to raises and promotions, or in this case the ability to stay on for another year or two. Not saying they aren't a big part of the equation, but at least they look at other factors and assess whether or not I had total control over all the things that may have led to a poor year. Even those of you using his record as your only justification to fire him have to believe there are other things to consider as well. If not, you're not reading all of the replies, because some good points to consider are being made.
  15. Bruce Arians can explain how this works.
  16. I was thinking along the same lines. I'm wondering if things like traffic flow, tailgating, and stadium experience are being asked for the stadium site study.
  17. Just start preparing yourself for the reality of the all-mighty dollar. I would imagine the order for choosing seats will start at the top of the giving levels and work its way down. Within those levels, your priority points will probably sort out where you pick. Just remember that it'll probably allow someone who has never been to a game to walk in and throw down enough dollars to get in a donor level higher than you and they will pick before you. And honestly, I'm fine with that. This team needs the funds and you can't expect them to put butts in seats that you have people willing to pay more for. Your priority points show your loyalty, and you will get some credit for that, so continue buying tickets and using them.
  18. I just don't see a good opening crowd until at least after a year that we've won a good bowl game. Our area will need to see more than the promise of a good recruiting/transfer class to show up for an opening game.
  19. I noticed the UCF player listed as coming. This can't be the first time this has happened in either direction is it? I've got to believe there have maybe been some lesser-known individuals that have done this in our 25 years, but this is the first time I remember seeing it. Also, does the transfer portal remove all of the transfer restrictions that used to be in place by some schools (like not going to an in-conference rival)?
