Yes, yes i am. Pitt called a timeout when Miami had the ball with just under 2 minutes left in the game. They were down 31-7 at the time. Miami threw a 33 yard TD pass a few plays later.
LOL. They called a timeout after stoning a Miami runner to force 3rd and 5. Miami was on the Pitt's 47. Miami had 3 timeouts. Narduzzi was being Narduzzi. He was counting on a stop and getting the ball back.

Heck Miami scored with 41 seconds still having all three timeouts.

There are plenty of very possible conspiracy theories. This was doesn't cut the mustard.

You know I've not even looked for the ban button, but maybe it's time! :p

I agree that the current system is pretty bad in several ways. I know a lot of people would like to go to an unbiased computer model that takes away the committee and personal bias. The problem with that is that the computers are just as biased, since their criteria for selection are simply those chosen and weighted by their programmers. I'm not sure what the solution is, and I'm not opposed to using computers, but they're not the perfect fix to the problem.

BCS today would have put ND right where the AP and Coaches put them, at #9. Alabama would have been in at #10. Miami would have actually been #15 which is probably a little low, but generally closer to where they should have been given who they lost to and late in the season. ND had to crawl their way back up over 3 months, Miami recovered rather quickly to jump us.

Btw, I miss Stonebreaker,… he was always good to bring some goofiness and lower the tone. Shame what happened there
It always throws me for a loop when some of our Facebook memories pop up. Man he was a good one!

I’m going to say something controversial here. What exactly did 08 do to earn everyone’s hate other than post some dumb takes? Some of you guys seem to really hate the guy. It’s kinda pathetic.

Thank you. The herd mentally of attacking a fellow poster is lame.
The site has a great ignore feature and it's your own fault if you're reading someone you dislike.

There's a lot of squares and hypocrites on this site that don't like what they can't understand or don't WANT to understand.

That's all you need to know. 👍

He was emphatic that we needed DT's and then got mocked for a bit (that was funny and he was classy as hell never once retaliated), then some bullies showed up as they do.

Every board needs a Koon or 2008 to be the villain. Gets boring otherwise, lot of circle jerking.

Really don't have an issue with him but dodging a ban bet you entered into is really lame.

Was the bet his idea or was he possibly pressured into it by someone that disliked his overly positive take on Burress?

Either way, he should honor it and everyone that dislikes his thoughts should ignore.

There’s a difference between playful ball busting and the current campaign against a fellow Irish fan.

Personally, I don’t hate the guy. Or anyone else on the board for that matter.

He got under my skin at one point because he was rapid-fire posting these impenetrable paragraphs—no punctuation, typos all over. No one’s perfect, but it was ridiculous.

Then I thought perhaps there was something going on that, I don’t know how to say this, I wasn’t considering. But it turns out he’s a smart guy who’s just lazy with posting.

I found that to be rude. It’s the type of shit that gets drilled into you in law school. Choosing not to edit a public document/posting is saying that your time is more valuable than the reader’s time.

Ultimately, I decided this was all a “me problem” and I took a step back.

I sincerely hope you’re doing well ‘08. But fuck if I’m not enjoying this delicious, lucid little interlude during your ban.

His idea. Lost the bet and wouldn’t adhere to what he agreed to. Weak sauce.

Presumably, he's of the ability to enter into decisions of his own free-will. Look at Christian Gray, his image is tainted by morons and their outsized expectations for him through no fault of his.
