Maybe I can express a rational thought or two. I also think I worded it wrong when said I don't look forward to your having to be sane and reasonable. I do look forward to it, but don't envy you the task.<BR/><BR/>Biggest concern right now is next week, although this week's banter between the Dawgs and Coogs may turn into a contest of self-deprecation. QB, actually no, OL, is my biggest concern. Does it matter who we put at QB if he doesn't have a running game? It seemed like most of our offense in the 1st Q was Bonnell scrambling. Remind you of anyone?<BR/><BR/>I still think keeping Locker's redshirt was a good idea except perhaps for the possibility that the team knew something about IS's backups that I don't, and have played accordingly. I don't like speculating in that direction, but it certainly seems possible. I guess the coach will cobble something together depending on health.<BR/><BR/>There's a lot of things I don't understand. It doesn't mean they didn't play, but I didn't hear the names of any of the OL depth called. That could be a good thing since it means they didn't get a penalty called on them, but at some point, something new needs to be tried.<BR/><BR/>This brings me to coaching and a comment you made in chat. It was right at the end and since it's premium I won't repeat it, but did you mean that or was it heat of the moment? We can go to email if you'd prefer. I've come to grips with what Coach W's doing as far as years and scholies and, to me, today illustrates why. Now, I'm just afraid we'll be going through it again next year. I don't like it, but I understand why now. Especially if that was a lackluster performance based on retaliation.<BR/><BR/>I like the kind of guys I think he wants in the program, but if he's trying my patience...that's saying quite a bit. I can't imagine, well yes I can, having read dawgman's board, how those less patient feel. It's not going to be a pretty winter, but I'll still be here in spring.hairofthedawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101240940373516922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769884.post-1163289152976826132006-11-11T15:52:00.000-08:002006-11-11T15:52:00.000-08:00Just repeat that for the second half and save your...Just repeat that for the second half and save yourself some time. 4 minutes left and it still sucks. As I mentioned in the chat room, no words and I've been cursing for many years now. I just flat out don't get it.<BR/><BR/>To epitomize this I just listened to a call, right after a 23 yd. toss to Sonny that took us to the Tree 46, somewhere under 4 minutes left. Rondeau's take was beautiful throw to Daniels who was loping along after it, never making a true break for it. Incomplete. Personal foul while we're sort of driving now. Great! I don't look forward to your having to try to be sane and reasonable after this. That's going to be tough to do. If there were a lot of questions about the program yesterday...<BR/><BR/>Part of me feels most sorry for Steve Emtman, who was supposed to be honored by today's performance. I'll feel better tomorrow, but I'm glad I'm not a lot of mirrors on campus today. Vent mode off...sorryhairofthedawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101240940373516922noreply@blogger.com
