Truth be told, I was gonnne after 4-0 last year. I knew the mighty drop off was coming and I just didn't want to go down with the ship, so to speak. My reasoning: anybody who'd allow a last-minute play from the gnats to erase Flowers and the team's TD to win the game doesn't deserve my trust (talking about the coach).

I was finally back for the season opener and 49-0. I did have a coping plan before the game; I suspected some kind of pain was coming.

(1) Wisconsin in Tampa: I'm calling it a bowl game! Heck, getting to play Wisconsin in Tampa at the end of the year would be a happy thing. Good crowd. Bad score. Done! I'm over it!

(2) What's good? Lots and lots of good things. USF football. Yup, just that. I'll never be so sad that I can forget that USF didn't have football. Good QB -he needs time to throw. Some decent WRs. Nice RBs, but they can't run anywhere without space! Pretty decent defense, except when they play the whole game. And, yes, there's the whole season ahead. Now that the bowl game is over, let's get six wins to earn the bowl that we just played in.

(3) OK, coaching... I remember being overjoyed when we got him and his staff from Texas and what a bargain, too. I was excited about the whole thing. I'll live with that decision, for better or for worse. Not going to complain now.

(4) USF Men's bball... We're back, baby! It's awesome!

---------------------

What does this have to do with anything? Nothing! I don't play one down. I don't know any of the players. I just invest my emotions and I'm going to make sure I win. It is my university (3 USF degrees) and I do care about the scoreboard. But I have to enjoy it, not wallow in pain.
