Individual losses almost never cause a recruit to make a decision about a program.
Seeing the webmaster of a high visibility fan forum, with media credentials, throw shade at a former player on Twitter could definitely make someone think twice about if this is the program they want to play for.
Jesus Christ that was painful to read.
Joe needs to do himself a favor and turn over TKP's Twitter to someone else, or at least have a separate personal account. Those are horrible optics for a site that is basically begging for financial support to keep running.
For a broader perspective, it felt exactly like the Big East days.
We don't win in the Carrier Dome. For real. Get used to it, and be thankful we only play there once every twelve years. They could have put Syracuse in the Coastal.
If we come out like shit against Miami, I might be worried about a derailed season. If we come out looking like we did against BC, ECU and UNC, I'm marking this one up to the Curse of the Carrier Dome.
There's a difference between being disappointed and being an entitled douchelord on social media.
How in the actual fuck did this team "let you down"?
Take that shit to an SEC forum.
I'm telling you, that place is fucking cursed.
This is gonna be a hell of a turnaround.
Burn the fucking Carrier Dome to the ground.
420 is awesome, but I like their IPA better.
I probably missed it, but any word on how Settle did this week? I know he tweeted that he'd "be good," but I haven't seen anything official.

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... Andy is a journalist first, whatever else he might be, and when the prevailing sentiment in the press conference room is that the coach is disrespecting the media, Andy's going to side with the media, every time.
In retrospect, we know that was mostly just Berman getting his fellow reporters riled up, but I also don't mind the honest criticism that Buzx should have let the media know it would be a late start to the press conference. The truth on that whole deal lies somewhere in the middle.
With all those ACC titles and 10+ win seasons, it's disappointing to me that we only came away with one BCS bowl win. In big OOC games and bowls, we really lost a lot of national respect and credibility during that time.
And don't think that didn't play a role in diminishing the national perception of the ACC. We were kings of the conference for a long time, and we consistently shit the bed on the largest stage. If the undeniably best team in the conference routinely gets pwned in its marquee games, the assumption will be that the conference just isn't very good.
If I might make a design suggestion, rather than the white outline around the protruding keys, take a look at expanding the width of the thin white circle that frames the outside edge of the circle so that it provides a white background for the portion of the keys that currently extends beyond the border. To me, outlining the keys in white looks odd.
I love that the complaint threads this season have become having to wait too long for giftory after our most recent blowout win.
What a difference a year makes.
Yup. That's the way I read this. I think his assignment was two chips and then peel to the next level. He overcommits on chipping McLock's assignment, and that puts him out of position.
Can I join again?
The theme this season has been making things right, winning the games we're supposed to win, convincingly. That same theme is alive and well this week, it's just been so long since the Carrier Dome Horrors that a lot of people have forgotten about them.
If we trounce Syracuse and break the curse of the Dome, in a weird way it'll make me feel even better than the last three games.
Wow, people really hate Guy Fieri.
I get that he's no Anthony Bourdain, but what's with all the animosity toward him. I used to like DDD almost as much as Man vs Food.
You are missing out on the absolute fucking gloriousness that is HyVee in the midwest. All other grocery stores pale in comparison now. (Though I still do a lot of my shopping at Aldi, just because you can fill a whole cart for right around a hundred bucks.)
OT but tangentially related: does anyone know why Dadi changed his name? I guess I always assumed it was to take hid mother's name, but apparently she is also an Estime.
Wyatt calls that "Around the World."
To be fair, the entire plotline of Stranger Things is exactly the kind of shit the Doctor would pop into for an episode.
There has perhaps never been a better use for this gif.
You forgot the ECU game in the "stats that matter" section.
I look forward to the impending "Remember That Time I Said '!!!'?" thread.
Miguel fucking Montero.
