      LOL, a’ight. I’m out. Too old to pretend there’s value in watching an overmatched and undermotivated team. Billy better figure shit out.

        At least TCU had a good one last night. And you’ve got the TN game to look forward to! (I will never believe we are gonna win that game any season until the clock shows :00s)

      Catching bits of this during the ad breaks in the Texas game, rooting for the Canes. But man, the new ABC score bug is hideous

        It’s not going to age well, think about how like windows vista looks to the modern eye

      Glad to see Baron balling out for the canes! He had a weird offseason, but he’s still a VFL in my book

      Just once I want to see Miami live up to some preseason hype. Give me a good game, with good decision-making, big plays, and solid W!

      Go Canes!

      Just got back from kiddo’s coding class. Glad to see Florida is hanging in there. And dear God, Swamp Sunny Side in August… WHY? And if you are, why waste it on one of very few opponents that can absolutely handle it? I assume I can blame ESPN.

          Yup, and some straight up cowardice after that last sack. I’ve been preaching patience with Billy, but they need to pass the eye test better this year and particularly they need to look well coached, and I’m not sure I see it.

          Cam Ward looking like the real deal, and what a weird developmental path players have now.

      I have no idea how Miami was so out of position on that, but I’ll take it! Go Gata!

      Edit: Good sealing blocks from the pulling linemen and a terrible angle from the safety.

      I’m a gator hator, but that honestly should’ve been a fumble
