Steve Orsini, you are proving to be a bumbling idiot

You had better have a grand plan for success here. We were the only team without a coach 9 weeks ago, and here we are again in the same situation.

That's all I really have to say. Kinda feel better now.

Considering this site's "personal attacks" edict, I'd suggest editing the title of the thread.

"Just stop with the insults and personal attacks. There's a lot of frustration right now, and constructive discussion is fine. But the personal shots at players, coaches and each other need to stop. Thanks for your understanding."

I did not take a shot at any players (because they haven't anything to deserve it) nor coaches (because we don't have any!). And I sure didn't take a shot anyone on Ponyfans.

If you believe my quote to be false or slanderous, please offer a direct refute.

I personally found your use of the other "b" word very offensive...wait, no, not really

BS. It's lack of planning and bumbling idiots that keep people from taking SMU seriously.

Ok, but what part of this process doesn't already make the everyone else think we don't know what we're doing?

Given history, I would not lay the responsibility for this mess at Steve Orsini's feet. You can thank Dr. Turner & Co. for that, IMHO.

Or the multiple rebuffing of Terry Bowden's bids for HC since October...did this guy pull a Ted Kennedy or something?

Eh, he banged a trustee's daughter. Everyone wishes they did.

Jury is out until the coach is named. At that point, we can assess how we feel.

Not crazy about the long wait. I'm frustrated too. But if we end up with either Jones or Fran, in my opinion it would have been worth it. We all assume we could've had Fran a month ago. However, there may be other issues at work on that deal. Heck, maybe Fran's not sure about us.

I've heard that...but in light of this report I'm hoping "banged" really means "shot at with a gun"...we turned Terry Bowden down multiple times...really?!?

[quote="JuniorIf you believe my quote to be false or slanderous, please offer a direct refute.[/quote]Fair enough. I assumed - perhaps incorrectly - that when they say "But the personal shots at players, coaches and each other need to stop" that carries over to administrators like Steve-O.
Not my call, of course.

I chose to interpret it more literally as that fit my immediate needs.

How we feel? Well, isn't that special!
