Perennial ACC Champs, the FSU Seminoles

Dear Seminoles:
When history looks back on the tenure of Bobby Bowden, it will remember three of his teams. The first two are obvious: they are the teams that won a national championship under his guidance, first in 1993 and again in 1999. The third team? By an accident of timing, that [...]

So how come I never met this guy? He lives in Florida, is an FSU fan, a Mac user, and a Halo player. I’m sure we’d get along famously.
My Orlando friends have some ’splainin to do.

Last year at this time I stated:
We could go 2-7 next year, and if the two were Miami and Florida I’d call it a successful season.
Unfortunately, I was eerily prophetic on how bad this season would be. But as this game kicks off, there is hope.
The reader should be aware that I am watching [...]

Yesterday, he did the honorable thing and resigned. (Later breaking news revealed that the FSU Boosters agreed to [...]

A couple of very nice passes by Weatherford, and then we’re visiaully assaulted by Holly Rowe and her now-uncovered hathead. Could someone please keep [...]

First rule of the shotgun: catch the shotgun.
Really, this multiple camera angle approach on ESPN2 would be so much more interesting if there were a camera in the cheerleaders’ locker rooms. I really don’t care what the line judge is looking at.
First running yards of the season? A pointless run by Weatherford. [...]

On first sight, that Jenkins catch was out of bounds. Watching the replay, he had both feet in bounds, but the play is under review. I don’t think this one will get called back. Bad position for the good guys.
Or, we can just take fifteen yards back by sodomizing your QB. [...]

Miami flushed almost its entire coaching staff in the off season, booting everyone but Head Coach Larry Coker and the Ibis – possibly the dumbest mascot in all of college football, even counting the Delaware Blue Hens. The inexperience of this maiden coaching crew shows in the team’s play: Miami’s committed two very [...]
