what do you think about your matchup with the wildcats this weekend
This is definitely one of the top 3 _SU games we've had so far this season. L and T are in the books, K this week, with an ASU still ahead. It's a very exciting football season for fans of the alphabet, for sure.
I know you guys are probably feeling pretty confident just because you managed to beat our interim coach in 2010, our 197th-trimester abortion of a coach in 2008, and our other other coach (that I still like, but most of our fan base hates) back in 2005.
But it's a new era, wildcats. We've got Dan McCarney now. If you think back to all his Big 12 championships from the Iowa State days, I think you'll agree that we should pretty much own this game. Some people might downgrade our chances just because, between the stroke and the eye situation, McCarney is medically falling apart so fast he may as well have kicked the lid off the Ark of the Covenant.
Nonsense. I'm so confident in this matchup, I skipped the trip this year. Unlike those other games in Manhattan, this team doesn't need my eyewitness support to take care of business.
In other analysis... I worked a project that allowed me to meet Snyder, Arthur Brown, Collin Klein, and this year's football version of Willie Wildcat. I mention that for two reasons: One, so you'll all realize how awesome I am, and that even in my half-assed interest, I'm a much better connected Wildcat follower than any of you and most of your big money donors. And two, so that I can say with some credibility that they were all solid people and they represented you well. Snyder was a little crotchety, but that's understandable given that he's possibly the last surviving veteran of World War 1. And, to his credit, he was very generous in offering us all rock candy and Werther's Originals.
