    Good read on the Fiasco Bowl ten years later

    I still haven't been able to watch the replay of that game and most likely never will. This article is pretty cool in that some of the players from that game reflect on it. Some choice excerpts- On Ohio State's next offensive play, Krenzel threw deep down the middle a second before...

    Checking in from Chitown

    Well, us Canes fans had the downtown area under toal lockdown. The ND fans, all prepped up and sipping wine while we were throwing back yager-bombs and Patron. Contratsting style in the classic sense. They made no noise, had no enthusiasm nor any visible sign of a pulse. We partied with KC...

    Don't forget our other weak coach

    Old Art Keheo. Never cared for him and it's games like this that validates my thoughts. KSt doesn't have All Americans , but as usual our guys get pushed around more than often than not. This is the one unit where we are supposed to be strong and deep. I know he's loved by many but the truth...

    Just got back from the game

    Well late last night anyway. Had seats right behind the UM bench. A few observations. Tracy Howard was getting his butt chewed out after the first couple of series. I liked the fact that he isn't being pampered. However I didn't like him going back at the coaches the way he did. Sometimes...

    Our success depends on (as usual)

    Blocking and tackling. Been that way since Pee-Wee league. The teams that block and tackle well, usually do well. We haven't been a good tackling team in years. Blocking has been sporadic and inconsistent. The way CFB has changed in the past decade + is that most teams now have talent at the...

    Who else is going to BC for the game?

    Having a big beach bash on Cape Cod the day before the game. My uncle has a huge house up there and while he is Italy, the house is mine for the weekend. Still putting together all the details.

    SI.Com's 15 impact freshman

    RB Duke Johnson, Miami: Johnson was the pied piper in a Miami recruiting class that could have melted down after Yahoo! dropped a Nevin Shapiro-shaped bomb on the program. He helped bring in safety Deon Bush and cornerback Tracy Howard, who also may need to contribute immediately. But Johnson...

    Passing on the Bowl Game looks good now

    While I am not claiming that Shalala and the AD made a smart move(this falls under the broken clock is right at least twice a day) knowing the outcome with foresight,it turned out to be a shrewd move. Golden has stated that he and the staff were able to make serious inroads with some recruits...

    Players with the flu

    Was talking to my daughter earlier and she told me that the flu bug has hit the team. She is friends with several players and said quite a few are not 100%. Not trying to be the messenger of bad news,just passing along what she said. She also said that she got the sense the players are...
