Dear Dave,
You were once upon a time, our grandpa. Our Werther's bestie, finding that little coin behind our ears, and handing us a Werther's candy with a smile. Sure, we would play some oh so close games, and had a 4OT thriller, but we were always friends.
Until 2019.
No, I'm not borrowing your riding mower.
No, I don't want your candy.
You had the nerve to cut us while we were down.
Not this time Dave. If that's your real name.
Oh, and here's the receipt for the cake we got you before the game last year.

If I am duke I'm scared👀
Can we really hate on Coach Cutcliff? Is that possible? It's like hating on Beamer.
For what he did last year. Yes, yes we can
We did that to ourselves though, really.
But the fake punt when they were obliviously gonna win the game. That was classless
That's a 50/50 for me. Like yeah that was a dick move but if we don't want them to do that...don't let them. We were flat that whole game.
With that said, we shouldn't pull a single punch this year. Up a million in the 4th I want to see a 2 minute offense out there trying to stick it in
I'm not mad that they did fake punt. I thought it was dumb to put it out on film when the game was all but decided though.
We didn't do the fake punt to ourselves. That's when I got pissed.
My wife, also a rabid Hokie, had only one gripe with Frank, and that was that he wouldn't pour it on, showing infuriating letting up on the hammerism when she wanted to see us pound and humble folks, not be all sportsmanship and the like. Her point was that by the time the game is out of hand, you're getting your bench involved, from third teamers to walk-ons, and since they bust their butts and balls all year to train to play, they deserve the opportunity to score, tackle, pass, run and catch the damn ball!
I myself am cool with taking a knee at the end, but thinking about the fake punt, I just think that there's no better time or place to get a live action look at the mechanisms of the play than when it won't hurt you to try it and fail. I'm giving Cut a pass on the fake, but still, hard to like him because HE COACHES AT DUKE!
After 2019 when he tried to run up the score on us? Fuck em.
He didn't "try", he suceeded
You know how many sub threads we get that complain about our programs and our players and our fans, and our recruiting, etc etc etc ???
That fake punt last year encapsulated every single complaint, boiled into one little play. On a night that was supposed to be a celebration.
So while he plays nice with all the neighborhood golden girls, they don't know he only showers once a week, and his hip isn't real. But we do.
Nah, anyone who uses last years game as an excuse needs to look in the mirror. We deserved that ass whooping. No need to blame cut. Plus we were out there running two point conversions up big tonight.
The 2 PT conversion was a smart play. I dont understand being butthurt about running up a score anyway. I still like Uncle Cut. He taught us a lot about ourselves last year.
I don't have a problem with the 2PT conversion. But college football has proven that no lead is safe. You have to keep your foot on the gas.
Our score as 2 min left in the 3rd was almost the same score as the K St and Okla game from earlier. Oklahoma lost.
So we shouldn't have taken starters out of the game last night? We shouldn't have knelt it at the 1 last night?
It was 4th and 7 in FG range with 5 minutes left and Duke was up by 4 scores.
I certainly would not feel any better about my team's performance just because the other team eases up. The fact that starters are pulled and knees taken could just as easily be viewed as a smack in the face. I don't worry about it. Handle what you can control and don't worry about the other side. Yes take a knee to end the game because that is controlling the outcome and avoiding useless injuries. If the other team doesn't then stop them.
Its not about feeling good about the teams performance. Its about getting out of there without injury. 41-10 isn't really any difference than 45-10. Duke had made its point.
They didn't go for it on 4th and 2 in the 3rd when they kicked a FG. Why would they go for it in the 4th?
Yes the players are adults, and yes their goal is to stop the other team, but this is still an amatuer sport. Even in the pro's they got pissed as Schiano for being a dick. The game was over, everyone but the clock knew it. There is no reason to go for it on 4th and 7. Its just a dick move all around.
The only thing I can think of is that keeping the ball in the offense's hands ensures more time being run out, less plays, more safety as you mentioned. That is a coach's view though, the players are gonna score if given the opportunity.
My point is if it was us we'd be like "oh hell yeah." This fan base has such thin skin. Instead of looking at that as Cut rubbing salt in the wound, look at it as the catalyst for us turning the season around. We're Virginia Tech, we should've never allowed that many points to begin with.
Someone said what's the difference between them winning 41-10 and 45-10. Well, at that point what's the difference in losing 41-10 and 45-10.
We sucked ass. We turned the season around. No point in blaming cut.
He brought us Hendon Hooker.
Nah I can't hate on Coach Cut. But a thread is a thread. And bread is bread. And if we don't have no threads then we don't eat no breads.
Excellent reference
Yes! Still one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.
Does he coach a team that isn't VT? Yes? Then you can hate on him.
And that team is Duke. Damn straight we should hate on him.
Dukes mayo is the worst and you put it on everything
Coach cut leaves the grocery cart right in back of your car when the cart stall is 6 spaces away.
Coach cut does that with the motorized carts too, and leaves them switched on so the battery drain
Having a handicaped girlfriend that's badly in need of a knee replacement we cant afford this aggravates me to no end. Its unbelievable how inconsiderate some people are who use these just leave them in the middle of the parking lot to run out of power and when the next person that badly needs it they all have dead battery's.
let the hate flow through you and take it out on coach cut
You're hate will only make you stronger

Need to go for the record!
Coach Cut thinks you're the go to IT guy because you're the youngest one in the office. But you're 41 and don't know Jack about computers anymore.
Call the help desk, coach! I don't have time for this!
Damn, this one got me in the feels. I'm that "young" guy he's asking
Did you turn it off and turn it back on?
LMFAO!!
Oh man, there's this one guy that used to think I was some sort of IT guy embedded in the engineering department or something. When he first got there I installed GIS software on his computer and showed him how to look up the stuff he would need for his job. All of a sudden he's coming to me to fix his mifi connection every time the WiFi adaptor needs to be reset. I was just going along with it to be nice and then I get a call from his supervisor apologizing and saying it won't happen again.

Absolutely. Proper design documentation solves all the world's problems.
Coach Cut bring a seafood dish to the office potluck and heats it up in the break room microwave
Specifically tuna casserole
Our new office plan has me located right next to the kitchen/vending area. This is my nightmare. That and overhearing everyone's bullshit conversations. Sometimes I hope I WFH forever.
When I was stationed in Germany, I lived in the Bachelor Officer Quarters.
It was not my favorite living arrangement. My room was immediately above the kitchen. I had the kitchen smells every day. The roof of the kitchen extended out underneath my windows and with no air conditioning, the windows pretty much had to stay open. The problem with that was the cleaning staff would feed the pigeons and I would get pigeon feathers blown in all the time. The bar was in in an adjoining wing so I had disco music every weekend night. Another "bonus" was having to hear the creaking bed and groans of the couple that lived above me.
Coach Cut is the type of asshole that gets angry that the local K&W Cafeteria is shut down during a pandemic.
I would agree with Coach.

Coach cut lost to UVa yesterday, thereby giving UVa confidence.

Not only is my sister's wedding this Saturday, but it's in the middle of no where with almost zero cell service, so I'll hardly even be able to follow the box score..
I'll blame Cutcliff for the sake of hatin'.

I had no clue, brunches at cracker barrel just got legit
Cracker Barrel Brunch was always legit, it just has more options!
As long as you didn't want to actually talk to anyone at your table.
Brunch is a time to eat two meals worth of food in one sitting, aint nobody got time to talk.
You ain't never been to a cracker barrell for brunch if you think nobody's talking.
I never said nobody's talking, I just don't want to talk to them i got food to eat!
You have plenty of time to talk while you wait and wait for your food.
or, you can just.....
I didn't much like touching those sticky game pieces even before COVID.
So I guess you're back to having to talk to family members, or looking at your phone.

If nothing else let's try not make things miserable for Joe and the mod team. Regardless of personal opinions, I think we're all perfectly aware that those remarks are against community guidelines.
Coach Cut? More like Coach Butt, amirite?
(Thanks to our long-lost friend MacGruber for the inspiration for this comment.)
Why does he spin it when it's perfectly aligned to just grab with his left hand? And his hand is totally free just sitting on the bar.
Sure, but had he stopped it's momentum he may have spilled a drop.
Heads up thinking.
Gotta have soft hands. Like catching a water balloon
Thanks, it's 7:30am and now I want a beer...
Coach Cut thinks Season 8 of Game of Thrones is the best season of the show.
In the original script, the White Walkers were Duke Blue Devils.
But it was impossible to believe that the Starks would fear them.
12 years of living in Coach Krzycxkljeowusdnclsdjf's shadow turned Cut from cool grandpa to grumpy old man. The result of this that Cut now has a GA that follows him around to keep from yelling "get off my lawn" whenever a player steps on the field.
We have a manager at work that we have since dubbed "Old man yells at cloud".

Coach Cut gets really worked up about articles from the Babylon Bee because he thinks they are real stories.
Edit: Retracted as it seems I was a bit quick to judge.
I don't get it. Why is this borderline? I thought Babylon Bee was like The Onion. Is this political?
Maybe I'm wrong here, I just view it as a more conservative satire site thats focused on religion and poilitcs than say the onion but thats just my thoughts and dunno that a sports based forum is where it belongs due to the issues over the past few months with people bringing that stuff here.
Babylon Bee is an equal opportunity offender.
I looked up the Babylon Bee, and I am rolling.
This site is hilarious 😅
Thanks for helping me discover the Babylon Bee.
I'm pretty sure it's all the political news I'll be needing from now on, as it's the most objective site I've seen in a while. Or do I mean objectionable? Well, never mind, it's good stuff.

Coach Cut was noticed for being brilliant at a young age and a prankster. He liked to draw penises on the chalk board when the teacher was not in the room using a clear gluestick.
That is really specific.
And clearly false since glue sticks had been invented yet when Coach Cut was a youngster. The only glue they had back then came in a brown glass bottle and had a brush in the cap. A year's supply cost a whole nickel and everyone in the one-room school house had to share the bottle.
I was referencing the penises on the chalkboard

Goes without saying, but Coach Cut didn't find this funny, and chose to downvote it.
