A Disappointing BJ 😢

[TrumpyCane]

I said it was the owners multiple times but no one listened. They just jumped on it. When the owners freed a bunch of posters, I requested two others be freed as I thought it was equitable.

You helped free TrumpyCane

Best decision of your life!

The one reason I would want the game played is to see how the defense looks with a different DC.

We need all these bowl games to come to fruition. We don’t have the Clemson train to eat off of.

This is very true. No ACC team in the Final Four means a lean winter...thank God for that extra $20 to $30 million from UHealth the kindness and generosity of the UM general operating fund...

So, just to be clear....politics are now okay on here? This is the one place i go to not hear about this stuff so i just want to make sure the non politics stance has changed?

That's not politics, but if things go too far down a Covid path, the thread gets moved.

When you say misleading things with a political agenda, it's politics. Glad there's a covid forum for that crap though.

I’m aware of what some posters have done, including leaving me with egg on my face. Regardless, the owners decided to give a bunch of banned users new chances. when this happened I went and got 2 banned posters back on because of other guys getting freed. And they’re doing fine.

Talk to the owners if you don’t like it. The Maude’s and Mods deal with the hands we are dealt. I’m absolutely going to be fair about it and honor the Board owners’ decisions in good faith by dealing with the parolees fairly. Not everyone wanted every banned user back on but if someone does the right things then good for them. I’ve made known where I draw the line on unbannings and it’s not because of *** shtick or because someone said Manny sucks.

The truly important question here is whether the inventor of a very colorful vocabulary to rate porsters is allowed to return...

You're imputing motive.

More so fired up for the live audition of both coaches/players for the Mario regime and all the LBs who didnt get meaningful snaps. Get a chance to put snaps on film.

Exactly. I don’t understand why some don’t want to see that.

@nystateofmind is merely a man who loves wordplay, light-hearted silliness, a chilled pinot grigio, and Canes football.

And his good friend Kenneth, of course.

Don't forget schtick. He loooooves his schtick. And schtick can work in small doses.

 

[BS85]

Lmao, you're better than this. It was extremely obvious.

 

[PCBcanefan]

Let’s just play TAMU. Covid vs Covid, the sick aren’t going to get sicker.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Just so we’re clear, are we still a cash strapped school or nah? Ya’ll still like seeing our team competing or nah?

Ya’ll do realize all these bowl games add up to a 7 figure pay out, including expenses w/ the shared pool. Plus, like I said, I like seeing my team play, even when they suck. Lol. But it gives the youngsters an opportunity to play in a bowl game that’s meaningful to them, and new coaching staff to evaluate current coaches & the team. Not sure y there’s so much apathy about this.

You are 100% correct. I would like for us to play in the bowl game, regardless of how much or how little we get. I love to see my alma mater play, even if it's UM-Stetson hoops. Or UM club hockey at the RDV Complex in Orlando.

But...IF IF IF we had to miss the bowl game, then we only lose 1/14 of the bowl payout.

Everything else is relevant, the practices, the evaluation, etc.

It's a tough call. I'd hate to see us blown out, or guys getting injured, because we have to play with such a small roster.

 

[JD08]

All he did was opine about the severity of Covid. I've heard medical professionals say the exact same thing. The statement he posted, on it's face, is not political.

I don't think shtick is word you're looking for...although it rhymes.

This thread is a woman who uses all teeth

 

[Umbra]

Praying for our team and Washington St to have a good bill of health come next Friday.

I legitimately don’t wanna wait till spring scrimmages to see us play. To much juice around the team right now.

It'll be more disappointing since we fully expected a game and then it gets pulled out from underneath us when we didn't expect whereas last year we kind of expected it every game.

 

[Umbra]

I couldn't be a mod or maude and deal with a bunch of children virtually lol. Too much work. Same reason my wife and I won't have kids in real life either.

Respectfully, what y’all end up seeing is a scintilla of what actually gets posted. We delete and warn a ton for political content, and right now there is more traffic than anytime in our lives. Stuff gets through.

As an example, in the thread about OUR TEAM getting the virus I literally deleted 15 of the first 20 posts in attempt to save the thread because it was highly relevant information about the very subject this board exists to discuss. Checked in a few pages later and it was a war zone. What’s the solution? Ban everyone? Obviously not, so the thread got moved.

To ask, “is this still the place where politics aren’t allowed“ is kinda like going to a popular restaurant and asking, “is this still the place where no one talks loudly?” You went there for the food, you like that they keep the atmosphere chill and relaxing, but every once in awhile someone is going to act up. It can be helped, but it can’t be eliminated entirely.

If you scour the internet for another place where thousands of people gather to discuss anything at all, I’d think very few compare favorably to what we’ve done here. We do a remarkable job keeping politics out of the discussion of most threads. The rest of the job is up to y’all. Dont fight back, just report it. See what we don’t see.

He is referring to a moderators post, in case you didn't see that.

I didn’t. Thanks!
