Re: Texstinger....We DONT need another tough
[ QUOTE ]
I cringe when we schedule a DI-AA team. I don't care how good they are. Until Duke and UNC show that they are a respectable win (and it hasn't been that long since UNC was there), I don't want to see patsy-games on our schedule. Samford, in my opinion, is a disgraceful scheduling...... On an 11 game schedule, we have 8 ACC games. I would like to see us drop Duke and pick FSU back up.
I realize that this is unrealistic and that even the perenial Top-10 teams play patsies. But this is one man's opinion and I'm just sharing it with you all. I feel the same way about the basketball schedule. I'd much rather play the schedule Michigan State had last Fall than the one we did. I would, however, prefer our Fall record to theirs.

First off, ease up. Yes, I do have a chip on my shoulder, there is no need to point out the obvious. Second, I was just having a little fun and wasn;t really trying to point the finger at you but was trying to address the crowd. I did a poor job of relaying that. I based my comments on the first part of your quote above. I realize that you were being unrealistic and only want what is absolutely best. No big deal.
But let me be clear. I agree with you 100%. I would rather play the tough opponets than the Samfords and Dukes. Playing patsies is not MY opinion. I do not disagree with your opinion. However, to point out that you would like for us to Drop Duke and play FSU was an invalid point. It cannot be done PERIOD, so why even whine about that to further your arguement? That WAS my point.
Anyway... I disagree with a lot of fonts on here, and I have one simple rule that I apply to everyone, which is...
You are entitled to your opinion... even if it is a stupid one.
Fortunately for you, I happen to agree with the majority of your opinion when it comes to scheduling. In which case, you might not be stupid.
