So let's see from you something that I have said that is unjustly negative. I am having a problem understanding what you are talking about. I think I have been very fair.
I'm still waiting to see you post something positive. I'm sure that an analyst of your ability has to have seen something positive within the football program this past season.

Troll vs. pessimist/Eeyore. Someone needs to get us leaning as far back as possible to counter the polyannas. All part of a healthy message board ecosystem.

Wrong.

There’s playing the Devil’s Advocate and then there is doing whatever he is doing. It’s continuous and not based on anything with evidence.

I’m one of the most negative people here and even I can see that he just has a beef.

Found Tuthill’s relative.


LOL. Anytime somebody starts with “I’m trying to be respectful but” … I guess it means they just couldn’t but tried really hard before succumbing to the urge to be disrespectful.

Tuthill is fine. You need glass half full people lest everyone gets drunk on empty hopes and dreams.

The BC shill can't help himself, after all, last time his team won 9 games was back in 2008 (though they lost their bowl that year). It's not so much jealousy as it is a pathetic cry of "hey, dun forgets us, we can plays futballs 2".

Reminds of a line that Benicio Del Toro's character said in the 1997 movie Excess Baggage when Alicia Silverstone's character asks him why he's not in a relationship to which he replies "I can always see the potential for failure".

You’re fine with a guy who said we should shut the program down?

You. "After this season, shut the program down for at least ten years. Stay in the BE."
I have, constantly, since you posted this crap. Not surprising you had ole Bobol's support.
What date was that and what was the context of the post? And why are you not replying to the actual post? Because I sure as hell do not remember that.

So what is that, a quote from the Maryland game chat or something? If so, it is called venting one's frustrations after a 3-9 year and opening the season with complete incompetence. If you did not say something similar in that circumstance you really cannot call yourself a fan.

So what you are saying is that there are times when you should be allowed to whine like a four year old girl who didn't get her ice cream.

So is that the reaction of an analyst or a fan boy?

The floor is 7 the ceiling is probably 9. There are 6 must wins on the schedule, 2 possibles and 4 unlikely.

While historically we should be able to beat Duke, Cuse, BC, and or at least compete. All 4 programs are currently riding higher than their past would dictate. We'd need to improve from last season to beat any of them.

I'd sign right now to beat 1 plus the other 8 winnable games with no WTF losses. A second straight 9 win season would be huge for the program.

It is the reaction to 3-11 over the last 14 games at that point. Analysts get pissed off too. I think anyone who follows a team has a right to vent in that situation. In fact it got three likes and one disapproval since most people knew where I was coming from. Bottom line: TOTALLY JUSTIFIED.

You will have to do better than that. Another example please. If I have been so negative, it should be easy for you to come up with something.

All 3 of BC, Cuse and Duke lost their starting QBs from last year. I think we should be able to beat at least 1 with (hopefully) improved/more consistent QB play and all the P4 talent we brought in through the portal. I think our current biggest question mark is going to be replacing our 3 starters from the OL. Ty Chan was a big pickup for one of them

BC has the QB who beat out the early season QB back.

Duke got that kid from Tulane, didn't they?

We will be in dog fights with all of them. We can run, we have way more receiving talent, better pass coverage and more experienced assistants. We need the lines filled out but we did well in the portal and we still get one more shot at it. I think this will be a very solid team that is better than this past season by just enough to win 2+P4 games. If something like Cole Welliver starting and being a star happens, look out.
