In Falconboy's mind, everything is black and white. And also 6'9", 315 lbs.
Please indulge the confirmation of my sarcasm:

Care to indulge me on why you really disagree with my assesment on our chances on behalf of Kent St? :-\
My point was there, but I suppose I will elaborate a bit for you if you don't get it.
There is nothing assured in college football, especially in rivalry games. For you to simply write off Kent in this game is utterly ridiculous because, as we saw last night, records, statistics, history, etc. all get thrown out the window. If past history determined the outcome of last night's game, we would have won. We came off a huge win, Toledo a huge loss, and the home team has won in this rivalry for nearly four centuries (or somewhere around there).
At the risk of employing my 2nd most hated enemy: cliche, I submit these adages to you:
-Don't count your chickens before they're hatched.
-Don't look a gifthorse in the mouth.
-Don' ever, under
any circumstances, poke a monkey and expect to not get hit in the eye with a handful of poop.
Edited because grammar is hard.

It is not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us; stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. ~
