Old Snyder

Very ironic statement considering the date _33 first posted this.

I'm confused, why is that ironic?

Because sunny_cat is saying it's time for Snyder to go, but in doing so actually reminds everyone that the last time there was a similar sentiment in Wildcat land, KSU was on the verge of one of its strongest 2-season runs in history.

Edit: and me being a crappy poster has nothing to do with it.

That's not ironic, Alanis.

IT IS IRONIC. His way of saying Snyder should go is basically an argument that Snyder should stay.

I will not have my understanding of the English language cruciferously attacked on this board. (See what I did there?)

irony is a tough thing to understand and use correctly in both music and message boarding

Is it ironic that his name is catastrophe and he is a terrible poster? 

[KanSt43]

Remember when Snyder said he was basically pissed off at his recruiting staff because they didn't go after any JUCO talent this year?

Is it like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife?

FWIW - I consider a song titled "Ironic" with no actually ironic lyrics to be ironic.

Get Snyder a body bag!

 'Old IronySnydes' is a wiki article/historical document i plan on making about this thread.

I'm pretty pissed that no one noticed that I used one of Alanis' exes for my gif

You should've used a Coulier gif instead.

There's plenty of irony in that song, btw. But I guess some people would rather just recycle old jokes from VH1 "I Love The 90s" commentary.

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day ironic:the expectation of a good life is met with its inverse
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay ironic:the expectation of a tasty beverage is met with disgust
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late* not ionic: the expectation of forgiveness from the pardoner is met with unequivocal judgement
Isn't it ironic, don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day ironic: the expectation of a pleasant event met with unpleasant circumstance
It's a free ride when you've already paid* not ironic: the expectation of a gift giver met with unfortunate pretence
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well, isn't this nice." not ironic: confirmation of previously held affirmations
And isn't it ironic, l don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day ibid
It's a free ride when you've already paid* ibid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up ironic:expectations of disaster met with normalcy
In your face

A traffic jam when you're already late not ironic: misfortune met with misfortune
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break ironic: expectations of smoking met with explicit opposition
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife ironic:expectations of knife centric food consumption met with abundance of inadequate material
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife ironic:expectation of romantic tryst met with opposition
And isn't it ironic, don't you think
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think

It's like rain on your wedding day ibid
It's a free ride when you've already paid* ibid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out
Helping you out.
*: situations could be considered ironic from the perspective of the second party

I'd say its fairly ironic

[catastrophe]

Seems a little liberal on the concept of irony. I mean, if you go to a Cats game expecting we are going to win but then we lose, who would really say "well isn't that ironic?"

[SkinnyBenny]

lmao catastrophe is so butthurt about being clowned

Eh not really, there'd have to be some prevailing affect in play already, going into the game, that would prevent even the possibility of winning, to make it ironic.  e.g - got pumped up to win but a storm was on its way to rain out the game, or Pawl got all the players jacked up on mountain dew making them unstoppable.

Guys, I just can't take much more of this.  Watching the final three games of this season is going to be like getting fillings for four hours every Saturday.

In these trying times, Kansas State’s football team continues to look for answers to solve the issues that have led to six consecutive losses.

The simple solution is to play better, but as a means to the end coach LHC Bill Snyder is relying on his time-tested “16 Goals for Success.” Snyder challenged his team at practice Monday to revisit those goals.

“If you were to look down through those 16 goals, there is hardly a one that doesn’t apply to where we sit on this given day,” Snyder said Tuesday at his weekly media conference. “My encouragement to them was last evening that they take 10 minutes out of their night before they went to bed and take their goals out and ask the question, ‘How does that apply to me at this point in time?’ “

“Coach Snyder talked to us before practice about how each one of those 16 goals can be applied to our situation,” linebacker Will Davis said. “If every individual can apply those 16 goals, or even take one goal and apply it, it can help our team.

“The one for me is definitely leadership. All of the older guys who have been there before and won games, we really need to show our leadership and bring this team back up from the depths.”

Linebacker Elijah Lee focused on No. 12, which is no self-limitations, as did center Dalton Risner.

“I sat down between dinner and our next meeting and he told us to find one we needed to work on,” Risner said. “A couple I looked at were never give up — I’m never going to give up on my team — and don’t accept losing — I hate losing.

“The one that popped up to me was no self-limitations. I thought this year I put some limitations on myself being a younger guy. I did what coach Snyder said and it was good to see what I need to work on.”
