Re: NCAAF
blurg.....
Didn't want to face FSU first, but didn't really see a way around that. Mostly because I can't stand that team and everything they stand for. I respect that they are good, just would make it more miserable if we lost. If we beat them though, it will make it sweeter.

You seem like a real stand-up guy, I just don't like your team in general.
Just curious, does the whole mascot, and/or off field/police pardoning issues bother you at all, or do you see those as way overblown?
Looking forward to it as well.

I've got my foot in the university as I attended there and have worked in FSU for over a decade now.
The mascot does not bother me as the Seminole Tribe of Florida fully supports and endorses it. All of the clothes that "Osceola" wears are all accurate tribal wear and actually made by the tribe. I do not think that present FSU treats the mascot (they actually call him a symbol. FSU's mascot for anything other than football is a horse named Cimarron.)in a disrespectful manner at all. It is a tradition that the University is incredibly serious about. My wife is Native American (Choctaw, not a Caucasian claiming their 1/16 Native lineage) and thinks it is done in a respectful manner as well. We would be the first ones against it if it was disrespectful to the tribe.
The off field issues are a different story. I have a large problem with the manner in which things have been handled (especially by the inept Tallahassee Police Department) and think a disciplinary overhaul needs to be set in the offseason. It gets to where it is just embarrassing for the University, being that the majority of the public know it as a football school, not the world class research institute it is. I also think that while given we've had some definite disciplinary issues this season (Man, I miss a few seasons ago, even with the National Championship), the media has created a witch hunt that jumps on any story as fact, no matter how questionable the credibility is.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't a bit terrified for the Bowl. Best of luck to you Ducks.
PS - Cimarron, for those curious
Re: NCAAF
That's all very interesting and impacts my perspective on the school.
I still cringe when I see fans in "indian" garb, but interesting to hear that the tribe supports FSU's representations, which is the most important consideration.
I do like our chances, just you never know until game day.....

Congrats to your Ducks dude! I know I have talked a lot of shit over the years but Marcus and co look poised this season and he's a good kid so I hope he wins the Heisman.mockbee wrote:thoreau wrote:I am sorry you (and apparently the rest of the nation) cannot stand us.

This should be our year for sure. It will be tough, but if we don't do it, it won't happen for a while without Mariota.
I remember going to games in the 80s and they would let you in for free after half time because the stadium would only be a third full.... times sure have changed.

Oh, I am with you. I cringe at most Indian garb from fans as well. We sadly have a good bit of that at games from select fraternities and sororities on campus. Nothing like watching a plastered well-to-do frat brother stumble around in his combo of popped collar pastel polo shirt and headdress.
You guys definitely have the edge this season with Marcus, but I still have faith we can pull it out. We'll see!
Re: NCAAF
Agreed. Mariota and crew are the scariest bunch, imo. I hope he wins the Heisman as well. No question that he deserves it.Juana wrote:mockbee wrote:thoreau wrote:I am sorry you (and apparently the rest of the nation) cannot stand us. I look forward to the contest.mockbee wrote:blurg.....
