It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

Yes.  It's amazing how before the year started last year all the guys we had returning were the reason we were going to be good and now coming into this year, the reason we'll be good is because these same guys are leaving.   Archer is underappreciated.

can you really count Moreira? The guy didn't play after the NU game.

That's 8 players. I'd say most teams lose 8 POS (players of sig) per year.

M.F. and J.M. are kind of overstated there.  I think we'll miss the others.  But we'll be fine.  After we get rolled up and smoke by Auburn we'll make adjustments and find out what our strengths are.


I still want my cooler, bitches!

you can't count Moriera because he does not have anything remotely close to even good hands.  Every year until his last he let more balls slip through his mitts because he was already into his juke, jive, juke, jive, juke and dive to the ground move, then dropped the punt to seal the deal on CU.  Yes, I'm still pissed.

    You can't be racist and like basketball.
We don't go bowling w/o Moreira.

Of course, you could say that for a lot of players.

Don't forget the talent he ran off.

Schmidtt is good enough to start for the coach we wanted more than Ron Prince. Haff is going to play for a BCS contender.  AE's new team had one loss last year (and no one in their right mind can argue he was worse than Meier). Thomas Clayton was drafted (more than can be said for Cornish).  Webb and Lopina arguably could have helped us win at Baylor last year.

Which part of what you quoted specifically are you referencing?  Honestly, I have no idea why that would be objectionable to you.  But hey, great videos man.  I am a HUGE fan.

Yeah, a handful of 2 and 3rd team all conference guys and some HM all conference guys, and a couple that got drafted by the NFL is HUGE talent, HUGE.

Well, judging by some of the expectations for Josh this year, a year's worth of experience might have made all the difference in the world.  Or not, I honestly don't know.

I miss Bill.  I feel like a kid who can't come to terms with Mom's new husband.

I loved Archer...but at the end of the year he blew a lot of tackles....especially in the Rutgers game....I about stormed the field and stabbed him
