Off the Mark
Squandering opportunities (Clemson, Iowa, Maryland, Purdue and Vanderbilt). 0-10 Florida International. 1-10 SMU. 1-11 Minnesota. 1-10 Duke. Miami. Louisville. California. LSU's defense. Michigan's offense.

And Phire's screen name in 1-3 weeks.
Get a new schtick...please.

That last post is dead-on. I propose PF.com adopt a new rule that says no personal attacks in screen names (except to purple frogs and orange cows, of course). This is an SMU board. You don't have to like every athlete and coach - I don't - but you accomplish nothing with names like that other than to underscore the image that SMU is a bunch of negative, elitist whiners.

For all of the notes the moderators have put up about keeping conversation constructive, etc., I would think this would be a no-brainer. Maybe the current guys get grandfathered in, or get to keep their names until the new coach is announced, or something, but there's just no reason for names like that.

What do you say, webguys?

And who is going to speak on behalf of the annoying insect species? :shock:

Point well taken, but that was (embarrassingly) one of my nicknames at SMU.

I guess I know what you supplied at the parties.
