I was wrong Saturday night and was correctly called out.

TL was not having his best game and I mentioned that maybe bringing Brice in would send a message and "calm" Trevor down. Judge Keller® called me out and LOL'd at me and I don't blame him one bit. I like JK and enjoy reading his post but he was right. First of all, I'm not on the dang field playing the game. I'm not in TL's shoes and I'm not Dabo, Tony, or Jeff so the best thing I can do going forward, is to do what is best for me and shut my dang mouth, let them play or coach. I need to just sit back and appreciate what Dabo, his coaches and the player have and are doing up in Clemson.

We all get caught up in criticism during the game on single plays that aren't executed to perfection. That said, we are witnessing what will be the greatest era of Clemson football in any of our lifetimes. We should all enjoy the ride.

Now that's the way it's done. My daddy always told me, the smartest person in the room is the one who keeps his mouth shut, listens, and learns.

Then that means that your daddy was a wise man bc people who continue to talk aren't saying anything worth listening to bc they haven't shut their mouth long enough to learn about anything worth saying. Now my mom use to say that those type of people are talking just to hear themselves talk bc what they are saying don't mean a hill of beans to anybody that's hearing them rum their mouth non stop!!!

You're allowed to have an opinion. Chase Brice is a good and capable QB. Maybe sitting TL for a series or 2 would've been the best option.
What if... right after your post of "pull trevor out of the game", a Syracuse player unblocked on a blitz takes out TL16's knee and he's out for the season. Then your post would've been spot on because Chase would've been out for the season instead of Trevor.
Just don't second guess yourself is what I would say to you. Stick to your guns.

Helps a little. . They, the offense, showed off so much in the playoffs,I think a lot of us were spoiled.

I never went that far but I did question all the 50/50 balls
Sep 17, 2019, 4:01 PM

However I did say that I trust the coaches. One of the posters on here, whom I’ve probably given over 100 TUs since I joined, posted sarcastically that we’re only completely 50% of them to which I replied that we are not getting anywhere near half of them. At that point I got a smart alec gif in response. All I did was state a fact.
In hindsight I could’ve kept my thoughts to myself but I’m not going to apologize for stating a fact. It’s Tuesday and I understand it’s part of the process. We know the coaches hold back on the playbook offensively. They don’t show more than they have to. It’s what they do.
All this to say MyFO that this is a message board. I’ve made plenty of dumb posts. I will make more. I’ve made good, fair posts and have gotten negative responses for them. The bottom line is don’t hold anything against that poster and hopefully no one holds anything against me for posting in the moment. You’re a good guy and a big Clemson fan. We might scold someone or get scolded in the moment but we are all Clemson fans minus the trolls of course. There are bigger things in life than a message board or even football for that matter. What I know is that it takes a genuine person to admit when they’re wrong and genuine people are in short supply nowadays. Keep doing what you’re doing brother.

Part of watching sports is talking it through, having opinions, listening to others, changing opinions, etc. Sometimes message board expectations grow to the point that every post is supposed to be a Grantland Rice piece, but conversations are not like that. For the record, yes, it seems like we just threw up a lot of balls.

MyFO, you know I’m a fan (of you) mainly because you have always exhibited moral character, integrity, and to my knowledge, have never said a mean spirited thing to a fellow tnetter, or anyone else for that matter. Anybody who has spent ANY time on this board also knows of your love of Clemson. This ‘apology’ is yet another example as to why. And as you say, Judge Kellar, too, is a stand-up guy who ALSO loves Clemson. I haven’t seen the post of which you speak, but somehow don’t think JK ‘called you out’, rather just disagreed with you on your ‘suggestion’.
Kudos to you - and TU - for yet another class act.
(Now I’ll go try to find your post! lol)
GO TIGERS!!!

I have been thinking a bit about the offense through the first 3 games... and am wondering if some of the passing game misses are partly due to us playing about 8 different receivers. Also, there are a few that should have been hauled in for completions and even TD's. Last year, Bama was hitting on all cylinders in Sept/Oct and we was not, then we were in Jan and they were not so I have to bite my tongue and let the coaches coach them up and trust by game 6 or 7 they will settle into a receiver rotation and we will light it up!
Go Tigers

Yep, I've said that same thing, nobody is finding their Grove bc they're not getting enough Ball's thrown to them, and they're not finding that QB/Receiver chemistry....

Is the Judge gonna make 15 or so of these apology poasts during the basketball season?

I've always heard that it takes a better man to admit when they're wrong, I just haven't seen anything that you said that was wrong. Maybe those that were offended by what you said, maybe they're the ones that need to check themselves bc you have the right to have your own opinion!!! And that is the name of that tune!!!!!!!

Myfav, you have been a friend of mine on this site for a long time, I've never read a negative post that you've made on here to date, and I still don't see where you have. You have a right to your opinion just as any other poster even though there are some that are opinionated, then they will abuse your right by TD-ing your post only bc it's not their opinion. But what you're apologizing for, I see no harm in what you said personally.

He's not a real judge .
I do believe your reassessment is on track though . It's tough , I do the same thing from time to time . Means you're passionate about something and sometimes we let ourselves get ahead of the game , instead of just letting things happen and enjoying the overall experience .
Bravo for the recant . +1 MoFavO

Ozell Alberson told me a joke one time.
Sep 19, 2019, 5:12 AM
|
|
After the wedding the young man and his bride were riding in the buckboard wagon to the big city for their honeymoon. As they rode along the dirt trail the horse stopped dead in his tracks for no apparent reason.
The young man got down off the wagon, walked to the front of the horse, looked him dead in the eye and said, 'That's once.' Later the horse stopped again and the man repeated the previous action and said 'That's twice.'
When it happened the third time the man got down, walked out front of the horse, pulled his pistol and shot the horse in the head. The young bride screamed out 'Why did you do that?'
The young man turned to her and said, 'That's once.'
