We cannot suggest the firing of sacred football team paid members, and rightfully so. But we can call for firing of the janitors who change out the toilet paper rolls at the toilet bowl.
UCF has nothing to gain by playing us after the AAC championship game.
I’d rather they spend the time on recruiting some players for the lines.
Plus, the players want to go home for Christmas, rather than play a meaningless game in some god forsaken hell hole like Shreveport.
The game wasn't going to be in Tampa. I was without power for 20 minutes at my house 15 miles from the stadium.
We already play there on even numbered years.
Right. There were people within a couple of blocks of me who had power within 2-3 days too but some other unlucky ones were without power for weeks. Irma was an entire FL peninsula event. Most of UCF's roster are from FL. Many of these folks were still w/o power by game time. Why play a game when there are more important things going on for the players, families, fans, and most importantly, support staff (police, fire dept, etc.)? Like I said, it was a logical decision, not a political one. You can try to say it was Hilary or Trump, dem or pub, or blue vs red thing, but you will just be promoting whatever loony side agenda you have.
Yeah they played a game three days after the hurricane at Raymond James Stadium. So did UF in Gainesville. It wasn't without risks so putting myself in the UCF event planners shoes, I understood their decision. Miami and FSU also cancelled games that weekend. Our game probably couldve been played but there were things out of the planners control that they decided to go the safe route. I hated the decision but I had empathy for their reasoning.
