North Carolina - Still A Danger

[Consigliere]

I don't disagree with your points (except #3...the defense was very soft on that drive and gave the reptiles a glimmer of hope...we didn't even force them to burn clock). My point is very simple, and I don't know why you guys are trying to make it so complicated. They were able to sustain some drives (4 drives over 4 mins into the early 3rd Q), and there were times when they were having some success moving the ball and converting on 3rd down. Those drives often didn't amount to anything, because the defense made some big plays at very opportune times. That's the important thing, but it doesn't take away that UF.ag was able to move the ball at times. I fully understand that UF.ag is one of the top teams in the 'best' conference, and we should expect them to have some success. I'm not at all disappointed or upset with the performance of the defense against UF.ag, but you guys get all panty-bunched because I point out that they had some success moving the ball at times. Whatever.

Because your point is that if we suck in all aspects of the ball game (defense, offense and turnovers) we are going to lose. This is not some profound philosophy by Voltaire, this is common sense. If we suck, we will lose.

Your analysis of UF was wrong. I am not discussing this part any more so agree to disagree.

Not my point, but again, whatever. Agree to disagree.

They're a bad team. We should pound them.

Anyone disagree?

One of the real questions is can this team actually handle success after being mediocre for so long. Certainly we know where Al is coming from "we haven't accomplished anything yet" but can the 18-22 year olds rise up, stay humble and not look ahead?

They've won, but also made enough mistakes along the way to give the coaches ammunition to keep them focused. Win, learn, win again.

Score doesn't matter. This is Statball!

This dude sebastian must be a schmoe because he seems to enjoy getting tossed around.

Can you read?

Can you put together a cogent argument? You're taking all these goofy stands and then immediately changing your dopey opinion. You're all over the place, sport. Take a knee and get to halftime and regroup.

Fans are nervous from past history - no shame in that.

Yes there is.

OK if you say so it must be true. Having been a fan since the 60's - let's say I've seen some incredibly bad things happen along with all the good and the ugly.

You guys are too melodramatic. You act like you're under siege from Charlie in a fox hole. We're talking about a good UM team playing a sht unc team THIS YEAR. We ain't dealing with any post-traumatic stress issues from the Shanntard Error.

How long has THIS TEAM with THIS GROUP OF GUYS been mediocre? You're focused on your fanship and not on the actual team.

I'll take that as a 'no'.

Take a knee, bub. I'm way smarter than you are, so there's no need to have me drag you out into those deep waters.
