New Story: Focus shouldn’t be a problem against Boston College

Focus shouldn’t be a problem against Boston College
For a lot of teams, Saturday could be seen as a potential problem.
You know, a team coming off a big-time win and with another big-time matchup coming up next week. It might be hard for some teams to stay focused on the task at hand: a home date in a mid-afternoon game against a team that appears to be overmatched. Full Story » |

It helps that almost every starter on the team...

has someone chomping at his heels to take his starting job. In the past we had starters who were hands down and away the best on the team. Even on a bad day they were better than their backups. Imo, our situation now is better than it has ever been for it breeds a particular level of competition. That level of competition birth last year's championship and should yield more.

Why even say the C word? We complained about it for years.

Dabo had an epic rant on it. He!l, even Crump banned it from posters using it on this site. So Daniel Shirley, why do you use it here? Even if you're just pointing out how ridiculous it is, you're still mentioning it and keeping it alive. Just let it go already.

Yes, I gathered that much

But Dabo could very well add this to his rant "we've also beaten Ohio State 31-0, beat Alabama and won a National Championship, and still there are articles written with that word being used."
Dabo DGAF what the context is, he says so here

I agree. Daniel I thoroughly enjoy your articles and think you have the right perspective on this team and coaching staff. That being said, whether you meant to or not, you are poking the bear (Dabo) by even using the term. He has made it clear he thinks it should never be uttered again. Seeing the respect your articles show for this program and Dabo, and the knowing the respect I have for your unbiased generally very well thought out brand of sports journalism, I hope that respect will be extended to include leaving this term out of future articles.

Ease up and respect Daniel, he writes great positive articles about our Tigers every week as a fellow Tigernetter.
He got the point your making and agrees with you, he's basically saying the same thing you are.
Thank you for another great article Daniel!
Go Tigers!!!! Tigers 56 BC 0

tried to justify using the word. And telling me to ease up and respect someone does not make me want to do either. Hth

The guy that caught the rant from Dabo used it the same way. No excuse especially from someone who follows and respects the program the way you do....
Normally love your articles. This one not so much...
