Stats to keep you up nights this week

[SMUer]

I watched the Stanford/TCU game...Stanford shot themselves in the foot all day...They were not good and almost beat TCU...

You said it. Stanford was about 1/4" from tying the game late in the 4th quarter. A kickoff was returned for a TD but the returner was said to have stepped out of bounds, resulting in a fumble on the next play that completely changed the momentum of that game. TCU's special teams tackling was TERRIBLE all day. Stanford returners were literally running over or through would-be TCU tacklers on every return. Very akin to Bennett-era special teams and without doubt is a blaring weakness for TCU.

TCU has OU next week so just how hard will they play against us this week? Makes you wonder.

Gary Patterson acknowledged on air the fact that TCU plays SMU this week but the student body is already chanting "F-OU" after the game and wearing T-Shirts saying "O-Who?". I hope that goes for the players as well.

Is it whining to state reality? I can't help it if you Sunshiners feel that I should not give my honest opinion. The line is 24 so if we lose by less than this I will be happy. Again no wagering please. It is not good for your bottom line.

Yes, actually it is. My 6-year-old whines just about every night that she has to go to bed. I think it's pretty obvious to anyone that she needs to go to bed at 8pm each night, but for some reason she continues to whine about it as if that will change my mind. Is this sounding familiar to anyone?

"Whining" has nothing to do with what you say but the way in which you say it. I think you will find that most whining is done by people stating at least a version of reality.

In any case. Stop whining.

I would love to beat TCU if for no other reason than to shut all of the whiners' mouths. Oh wait. They complain no matter what, and I really think they are happier when we lose because they have more to whine about.

I'd like to see a list of the whiners to whom you refer, only to see if I made the cut.
