Back, and to the Left Game Thread

I ran out of dumpster fire memes, so I went with historical appreciation instead. I suggest talking more about your own take on the assassination and/or your favorite conspiracy theory(ies), rather than the game. Not even sure I will watch, frankly. It’s mind-numbingly stupid that we play this game at all, and I am extremely disappointed in DY for recently extending this series. In the future we will have to explore more deeply what drove that decision because I know from first hand experience that she has not supported the extension of the series.

Today’s sea of purple-clad methheads in C-F is in no way good for our program. But, of course, today’s situation comes to your courtesy of ‘Coach Lee Fowler’ who would’ve done anything in the world he could to put himself in the personal good graces of local politicians and ECU’s well-respected Athletics Director (at the time), Terry Holland. I have to ask how all of that chumming up to others worked out for Fowler, who remains unemployed three years after FINALLY being dismissed from NC State.

ECU can beat NC State and UNC-Chapel Hill in the same season for the first time in school history.

The most exciting sports event of the day, of course, is the Merseyside Derby. Everton scored to level the game at 1-1 in the 8th minute, and have controlled play since. This is what will determine the level of my foul mood for the remainder of the weekend, at least until Broncos/Pats Sunday night.

    “Feets of Strength!!!!”

    That is the strength of our team: Niklas Sadie’s feets of strength.

    I’m already in a foul mood. F this!

    I’m kinda in the wilmwolf80 camp.
    I hope.
    No need for foul moods at this point.

    Only bitter and angry musical selections this week:

    Agree with Alpha. Just Smooth Operator for that phase of Festivus festivities.

    What has already gotten me in a foul mood is that the Nepotism Sports Network refuses to start its games at 12pm and that I am going to miss the beginning of Alabama-Auburn because WRAL will have State-ECU on until 4.

    Move the NSN games to Fox 50, WRAL. To me it is just another reason of the current list of 1,325 that I hate that station to the power of an exploding quasar.

    I can’t decide if I’m pulling for Duke to continue their dream season, or for Wake to pull a spoiler on them (and thus maybe feel a little less bad that they always seem to do it to us).

    Wake gets the benefit of bad angles on the replay, none showing knee and ball at same time.

    Uh, you know Auburn-Alabama is next week right?

    Dammit ODU!!!

  11. BJD95 11/23/2013 at 12:23 PM #

    Missing first bit of LSU/Fightin’ Manziels also sucks, to be fair.

    LRM – my bad. I meant to say LSU-TAM. We’re sitting around talking about the Iron Bowl here while we watch Harvard-Yale (my father-in-law is an alum of Yale and has an MBA from Harvard.)

    ^Too much culture. LOL!

    My brother and his wife are here at my house, ECU’s brightest. Drinking all my beer.

    Alternate viewing – Oklahoma at K State.

  16. Wufpacker 11/23/2013 at 12:41 PM #

    Hey, at least we get to listen to Hogewood. That’s always a plus.

  17. BJD95 11/23/2013 at 12:42 PM #

    Duke has decided to go back to being Duke, apparently. Jeebus.

  18. Wufpacker 11/23/2013 at 12:43 PM #

    Wake takes an early 2 TD lead on Duke.

  19. Wufpacker 11/23/2013 at 12:49 PM #

    ODU within 1 (14-13) in Chapel Hell.

  20. Dogbreath 11/23/2013 at 12:49 PM #

    looks like the coaches have finally embraced my strategy of nothing but sprint draws straight up the gut and an occasional tight end drag, but only if absolutely necessary.

  21. Wufpacker 11/23/2013 at 12:50 PM #

    Well look at Mitchell being all good and shit under blitz pressure.

  22. Dogbreath 11/23/2013 at 12:51 PM #

    well i’ll be god damned. a passing TD.

  23. Wufpacker 11/23/2013 at 12:52 PM #

    And again.

    Wasn’t exactly pretty, but nice way to haul it in by Creecy.

  24. redcanine 11/23/2013 at 12:55 PM #

    That new sod looks good there at midfield. The former logo was enormous.

  25. BJD95 11/23/2013 at 12:57 PM #

    I heartily thank the NC State administration for changing the logo. Yeah, you take a hit for admitting a bad mistake, but much better leadership to at least admit it and move on.
