  1. Same society that says it's ok to take things you don't earn from those who do...
  2. As soon as anyone mentions the word soccer, ears close and eyes roll. Not worth the effort. Your loss. Attend a major championship like the World Cup or the Euro and you'll change your mind. WOW, FYI.....I was the keeper on the first non BAYSL team to win the Brandon Cup (1982), I attended countless Rowdies matches in the 80's, 2 matches in Orlando 1994, just ended my second year with USF Soccer season tickets, follow The Tottenham Hotspurs very closely, even have the Hotspur symbol tattooed on my right calf. As you might be able to tell I have a slight Love of the sport. Sorry, I missed your sarcasm. Excited about the Man City match tomorrow? I track Tottenham a little closer now that Dempsey is there. I'm more a fan of the USMNT than any club, but I follow La Liga pretty close (wife is a Real Madrid fan).

  4. I know UCF fans do it on the "Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there." They yell "Knights!" instead of night. Too be honest I'm a big fan of, "... home of the Bulls!" I don't think of it as a slight to anyone. Ray Jay is the home of the Bulls, which I believe is included in what home of the Brave means. I understand some people may not like it, but it's not meant to offend. If you're offended, I'm sorry that you take it the wrong way, but I'm not stopping. Just because everyone else participates in asshattery doesn't make it right. We should just stop playing the anthem before every random sporting event. Should only be used at games involving a team representing the united states.
  5. People have affairs all the time, and if you think guys hiring their mistresses as their secretary is the end of the world, don't look at Fortune 500 companies (or the govt). Last time I checked, Arkansas didn't have the NCAA breathing down their neck. He may be an opportunist and a womanizer, but he is a **** good college football coach. Yeah, well scumbags with no moral compass don't need to be coaching at the college level. Football is more than x's and o's and the lesson to players should be more than its OK to be scum as long as you win and don't get caught. .There are people that hate what he has done and you can bet that it would effect donors and alumni. Especially those with spouses that hate that kind of crap. Just because you are ok with it doesn't mean everyone will be. Sorry, this isn't peewee league sports where no one keeps score and everyone gets a participation trophy. If it was, RJS would be sold out and Holtz would be sitting on multiple coach of the year awards. USF football is a multi-million dollar business and should be treated as such. The positive effect winning would have on donors and alumni (not to mention recruits) would far outweigh the folks that can't see past an indiscretion and want a coach to give 21 year old "children" an orange slice and a pat on the back every time they screw up. The front runners that make up 90% of the Tampa fan base just want to see a winning product. USF is a public higher education institution whose purpose is education, not appeasing fans. The football program is a small part of a much bigger entity. The public expects the university to hire people whose moral standards will be an example for students. Some may think that the world at USF revolves around the football program, but no, it doesn't. Because no faculty or staff at USF has ever had an affair. If it wasn't for Leavitt and the football program, whenever anyone outside the state of Florida mentioned USF the only thing they would think of is terrorists.

  7. Nutt couldn't win the SEC with Darren McFadden and Felix Jones in the same backfield for 3 years. Probably the best tandem since Thurmon Thomas and Barry Sanders at OK State. No Thanks.

  9. Vandy would run a train on Temple or Ball State. Skip is every bit as bad.
  10. The only way that Skip stays is if he can win 2 of the next 3. If that doesn't happen and he's still here, I'm done with Bull's football until he's gone.
  11. Put the crack pipe down Ghost I just changed the channel to USC v Oregon. It's like trading in a tricycle for a Ferrari.
  12. This win has completely changed my mind on Holtz. He is the right coach to lead the Bulls.
  13. Imagine how much worse we are going to be next year. Depends on who wins the starting job. Woulard, Floyd, T. Eveld, or B Eveld? LOL at Woulard still coming here.
  14. I started hitting the bottle watching the Texas game to premept this... Now we're getting dangerously close to bottle #2... If we some how win I dunno if I will remember it It won't be worth remembering even if we manage to stumble to a win.
  15. And yet we are only up by 7...what does that make us? The love child of Simple jack and corky from Life Goes On.
  16. Uconn looks like the illegitimate child of the Washington generals and the keystone kops.
  17. That's what a good coach would be able to teach a qb, throw it where only the wr can get it when you're in fg range with the lead.
  18. Kind of like the Syracuse first half last week? Yep. We'll make them look good,eventually
  19. It's sad watching how bad uconn is considering they are going to win this game.
  20. Holtz can't find the missing piece because he's the problem. A functional coach is the missing piece.
