To be clear, my love for ND has nothing to do with the ACC. I was raised in an Irish Catholic barn so I was indoctrinated at an early age. VT only became my #1 team when I attended. The Irish are my second favorite team now.
We are in Williamsburg this weekend running away from the water issues in Richmond. Just ate at a deli in the outlet mall called Baazaro's. Terrific sandwiches and very nice staff. Given that I have never had a meal in Williamsburg that I liked, this was a really pleasant surprise.
I laughed at that comment as well when McDonough said it. These commentators couldn't more transparently pathetic.
I do, because it is. And always will be. Brian Kelly ordering a kid into a scissor lift in 40 mph winds doesn't change that.
And yet you claim LSU's commitment to football is greater than ND's.
Duffy is doing pretty well so far.
Go Hokies.
Depending on the metric, Duffy is our 🐐. Sample size be damned.
"he is responsible for our son's death, but we are not going to sue him because we need him to win 9 games... go Irish above all".... Still fucking blows my mind.

"Additionally, you can miss me with Georgia's playoff loss with their backup QB as a denigration of Georgia's quality as a football team." - you are better than this - come on. You are an unapologetic SEC homer- however you have used real points and not bullshit hypotheticals like this one to make your points in the past- don't be bullshit hypothetical fan. If VT didn't lose 6 games, we would be in the playoffs- that is so intelligent right? You can shill for a 100% meh bama team that lost to Michigans worst team in a decade... fine... I can be sarcastic about the SEC - you had to know this was coming and will come 100 fold if Texas loses tonight. But don't worry in August we will be right back to- Missou is top 5, just because and you have to rank Vandy and Kentucky in the top 25...duhhhh. August will be here for you soon.
I said these things: I would have preferred Alabama to make the playoff for my enjoyment of watching the games and because I think, despite three losses, they still had a better resume than some teams who did make it and had no good wins. Bama did have good wins, I don't really think that's debatable. Additionally, you can miss me with Georgia's playoff loss with their backup QB as a denigration of Georgia's quality as a football team.
However, none of this is relevant to our current exchange, because at no point did I, or anyone that I've seen, make an argument saying those teams did not have "duds," which is the argument you are making here. I think everyone agrees that the "duds" from the SEC teams is why they didn't make it... Bama doesn't lose to OU and they are in. Ole Miss doesn't lose to Kentucky and they are in. I think almost anyone would agree that it was precisely those "duds" that cost them their place in the playoff.
(They're insufferable right out of the box)
No- I was speaking to him being a bum on the field- didn't mean to disparage vets. And the guy with the vietnam vet sign under the bridge is most likely- not a vet in my experience.
Love reeling in more local 4* talent.
I think this alignment is fine you can't double team the blockers so you've got hat on a hat and are attempting to beat the edge from one side which they nearly did and still have an extra guy back for block return/wild shank/fake stop
"dc compares veterans to sexual predator" is not what i had on my bingo card. You are being extra spicy today
many are making this argument and constantly do. Who cares if Bama has 3 losses? they have the best "win" - eventual 3 loss UGA- on the board. Wasn't that you who said that or something similar?
Duds are exactly why the SEC didn't have more playoff teams... Bama against OU, Ole Miss against Kentucky, etc. Why are you valiantly fighting against an argument that nobody is making?
Like the guy under the bridge on the highway with a cardboard vietnam vet sign, DeShaun Watson is a bum. A bum. nothing more.
That is it! God that was such a stupid mistake
Browns already looked like a bad idea and now word that Deshaun Watson tore an ACL this week and had surgery yesterday leaving 2025 in doubt and he was terrible but their best option.

Matej said player not coach when I asked on Twitter
"a lot of athletes opt out of what could be a better showcase for them"... you bet 100% - in modern society, and now more than ever in college football- athletics is a way- a very lucrative one- to get paid large sums of money. If you are a d1 athlete, you are closer to that in the moment than a doctor, lawyer, astronaut, senator facing years of schooling, training, advancement to cash in. These kids want money and they want it now. They don't care about the team anymore. Bobby Knight and Coach K selling "if the team is great, your individual accolades will follow" is dinosaur mentality now. These guys want their millions. Ironically for 98% of them, being a lawyer is more realistic than NFL star. But now all you have to be is a college star to be a millionaire. That is what its about. Not showing out for VT in the mayo bowl.
