Dear Sports Jesus,

[SMU2007]

Way more damning than what happened at Ford today is what came down on Tuesday. It crushed my SMU soul, and I didn't think that was possible. I honestly don't know if I can recover from this bomb.

This is how I feel...

[LakeHighlandsPony]

and for the Dallas area Stangs... Romo hurt, Dez hurt, Rangers can't close....

After a while you have to stop caring about SMU unless you are insensitive to pain and suffering. Chad Morris is a good offensive coach, but not enough defense. Maybe next year. See you then, not before.

Huge gut punch, no doubt and 1,000x worse than any on-the-field performance today or this year.

I do wonder what impact this will have on CM and the football program.

If SMU were to truly go up in athletic flames, I wish we (not the school of course) would set up some sort of fund for ex-players from P5 conferences to tell their stories of bribery, misdeeds and payoffs. We're talking athletes who have either not graduated or have useless degrees. These are tough economic times and you have to think most are struggling. It would expose the NCAA as frauds so I definitely would contribute....Pony Up.

Doctors have told me not to drink until my lab work shows better numbers or I would.

This is the worst sports week of my life. Alma mater gets hoops sanctions. Alma mater loses to an fcs school and ecu. NFL team is the 49ers - dumpster fire franchise. Mlb team is the giants - dodgers clinch the nl west in San Fran. I hate sports.

At least the 49ers head coach trended on FB for ripping farts during his press conference.

Whatever doesn't kill my liver makes it stronger.

I'm testing this out, will let you know how it goes.

Well you still have Fresno State... Oh wait.

I'm sure you've developed quite the tolerance after last season.

[Charleston Pony]

year has not been nearly as painful as last (at least from the football perspective). Have to remember that through 5 games last year we were "record setting bad"

Who kept track of the records here? Our defense has to be close to the bottom.

Edit: Yep. Last. http://espn.go.com/college-football/sta ... totalYards

jezzz - Also note USF @29 for the other win

Our defense is not good. Period. But I would have to believe we might be one or two spots higher if everyone else had played TCU, Baylor, and JMU.
