Unforeseen byproduct of cancelled game...

[Jimmy Serrano]

LMAO. Your logic is based on your assumption that what is nothing more than an assumption is fact.

My logic is based on a number of veritable facts that support my conclusion.

Side note: your posts are barely readable nowadays. Stop posting like you're writing a legal opinion and speak English.

This thread is awesome!

I've found myself agreeing with folks that I normally don't agree with. I've found myself disagreeing with folks that I normally agree with. I found myself agreeing with some members on only half of their posts because I couldn't understand the other half of what they said. I'm sure there's a Psychology professor at UConn right now that is eating this shtuff up right now.

By the way, I'm probably the only one that actually knows why USF cancelled the game...

I would say you're wising up.

Have we thrashed this one to death yet?

No.

Have we exhausted all of our "how dare you value a football game over people's lives" faux outrage yet?

We can argue ad nasuem about priorities of staying in FL or playing gamein CT. With that, lets move forward 3 remedies, that I will list in order of responsible feasibility:

1.) Move whatever mountains need to be move to make this game up. It should be a responsibilty of all conference members to assist in (a plan involving ECU & Houston has been put forth to make this work).

2.) USF comes to Connecticut the next two seasons as a means of making this lost home game up to UConn.

3.) USF forfeits to UConn.

Three choices, all doable (probably not desirable), but doable. USF and the AAC can make the choice, but there should be no avoiding it.

Are there posters here that still think Richard Lagow was sick on signing day?

Holy cow whaler has been on fire this week. LOLOLOL.

People in my town might not have power until the 24th. There are still fuel shortages - also my wife was trying to fly back into Orlando today and got bumped to Friday. If this hung west instead of going central Tampa would be Devastated. Just never complain when CT gets its once in a life time freak storm. USF would have kicked our teeth in and will do so if this game is played.

Even a broken clock is correct twice a day, Jimmy. Don't get too excited...

Here is a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with anything.

BTW we had two storms in three months that knocked out power for a long time for a lot of people. I'm pretty sure it's not one in a lifetime.

Texas is 10000000x less dramatic with 100000000x bigger issues.

See Key West.
The only drama the people on this board putting a pointless game ahead of life. Truth is no one here even knew it was cancelled or existed.

By this logic when Buffalo has a blizzard nothing should happen in NYC.

By this logic South Florida shouldn't have a football program because nobody ever notices.

I don't know why brainless people feel the need to continue to double down on stupidity.

That you've distilled the arguments into 'football over life' might be the single dumbest thing anyone has posted yet - so you've got that going for you.

Blizzards aren't 200 year case study Hurricanes.

I'm from the northern states. Snow. Blizzard. Power loss. That's not what Irma brought. Arguing the blizzard ... do you always get in these arguments without your towel?

Having said that. I think a Forfeit is a logical debate. They made a choice.

Irma brought almost nothing to Tampa. 66 mph gusts isn't exactly the making of case studies.

That the keys had it rough has no more impact on Tampa than a blizzard in Buffalo has on Manhattan.

The people here without towels are the ones who will ignore every piece of evidence that points to a very simple conclusion.

Not sure, has the game been rescheduled yet?

Geesh shut up already. You self righteous whining has become intolerable.

So your answer to my question above is, "no, no I haven't". Good to know.

I am sure tons of lives were saved because the game was cancelled and USF was able to be home.

 

[RedStickHusky]

If I was on a hurricane relief message board arguing about the importance of a football game, I'd probably deserve to be called out. Finding myself instead in a place where people come to talk smack about football, I have no problem with speculation about USF 'leveraging' Irma.

What are you going to do if I don't "move onto UVA", Coach Bellichick? Are you going to write a strongly worded letter to the editor?

Also, can we please put an end to the "On to (insert team here)" Bill Bellichick bull crap? It stopped being funny and/or witty 3 years ago.

What?
