Thanks. It's nice not to feel like the lone voice in the Wilderness of Negativity.

It's nice to know you're thinking about me John, oh wait... :talktohan

Hey, I'm positive....positive that we sucked for the 2nd straight week

Good stuff, getty. Yes, we did pretty much suck, and I'm not denying that. But I saw a lot of major improvements from last week, and I'm damn sure that if our o-line can get their shit together we will knock some heads this year.

Hey, at least we looked better than Michigan.

Jimmy, you know I'm ALWAYS thinking about you ...

I know no one wants to hear it but, bonehead plays, penalties and an inefficient offense are the death of this team....while we're not getting killed in time of posession our defense clearly looks like they're getting tired...which is too bad because they had another great start to the game.

PENALTY AFTER PENALTY. Time for Charlie to go Drill Instructor on the lads!!!!!

I'd rather face a 2-0 Michigan than be their first win, which might happen this year. Ugh.

 

[johnnd05]

my wife and i are about to have our first baby...and I keep telling her that I want to name her 'Charlie' ....she is having none of it

Yeah, I went through the same thing. Have you tried Brady? How about Shark? Or Jimmy? Maybe Duval or Armando?

 

[GoshenGipper]

I say go with Rocket Zibby _______. Just make sure she on the meds when you suggest it. LOL

yeah, overall they did better....hopefully at some point we find an offense.

I can't help but think we won't be saying that next weekend....while Michigan has sucked, they've at least been able to move the ball (800 some odd yard compared to our 250 or so) and put some points on the board (not so much vs Oregon).

Lets hope ND improves a good bit more this week than they did last. The lack of a touchdown in 2 games really bothers me.

That's all I needed to hear ...

That's true, but the Skunkbear defense has looked HORRIBLE, and ours has looked pretty good. I agree, though, that we probably shouldn't be favored.

Ditto, and ditto. See, everyone can get along if we just talk nice!

I can handle growing pains (not the show), and even losing, but the penalties and missed opportunites are killing me.

Same here, the conservative playcalling is more than a little fustrating at times too.

Like I been stating, this is gonna be a tough season. I just hope by the time we get to the USCUM game, the point spread is not in the twenty's.
