I just want to see AT and the offense run all over UT and a huge BG win.

I think the consensus was that they would be good. But few of us MAC fans thought they would actually win the title, much less four in a row.

But I agree with you: '24 is needlessly insulting Buffalo. That's a pretty good team -- and they should be excited in Buffalo, becuase that team has been awful for years.

This is a huge win for us, and it wasn't inevitable by any means.

Believe it or not, I do not disagree with everything you say, and I certainly do not hate you. You are young, as I once was, and as we all once were. When we're young, we all say stupid things. I remember that right after I joined in 2003 I was asking about joining the Big 10 around here. A stupid question, for sure, but I didn't know any better at the time. I guess that is why I try to challenge you the way I do - I've been there before.

In this instance, I think the above quoted statement sums up nicely what I was trying to assert in my previous post. Just because a program sucks for a certain ammount of time doesn't mean that a program will suck forever. Look at BG's PP in hockey. It has been one of the worst in the country for several years, but, seemingly out of nowhere, it is now among the best in the country. Things change in every program, all the time. I guess that is why your statements have seemed odd to me today. I just want you to think about them. Nothing more, nothing less.

I must still be young. Phew. What a relief. How old do I have to be to stop saying stupid things?

Well, I just turned 46 in September......so I'm guessing that magic number is at least 47.

In summary: "Don't be a douchebag and be negative for negativity sake."

Except this had nothing to do with being negative.

It has everything to do with being negative. A lot of your outrageous statements and generalizations are, in one way or another, negative. I've always been a "glass half full" kind of guy, so my stupid statements are generally irrationally positive. We all manifest our stupidity in our own special ways.

Flipper, for instance, does so by inflicting unnecessary, outlandish physical harm upon his person.
