Burns: It is more than it is

Burns: It is more than it is

When it comes to the Clemson football team’s 38-3 win over Wake Forest last week, it is more than it is – it is what the Tigers make of it. Full Story »

But "It would be disrespectful to ask how a private school can’t afford to leave the state for a non-conference game, or if enough thugs, wannabes and women desperate for attention will show up to fill Land Shark Stadium more than half-way." may be piling on a bit

I tihnk he went a little too far in the last part of that article

I think so too.

That was completely uncalled for. There was no reason to insert that juvenile crap. Especially sober.

###### who thinks that you should say African American instead of Black and you can't punish a child, then you are what is wrong with this world.

However, if you are not that type of person, then I agree that all Burns did was provide bullentin board material and he should have left that out. Otherwise, I have no issue with it.

I'd much rather smoke a tree then hug it......but in regards to the article, I just think it was inappropriate, not necessarily offensive to me.

Burns you are irritating. Half your article is full of stats everybody already knows at this point. Speaking of which, there ought to be a much better formula for calculating APY and punt and kick returns, since half the time or more the kickers are kicking away from the good returners. THAT field position ought to be awarded in some way to the kick returner as APY's. If there were an actual stat on "field position", I believe Clemson would lead the country. We're hardly ever back up behind our own 35 because of CJ.

Glad I read the article because I thought

Burton Burns was saying all of this stuff. Then I remembered he was gone.

I love to be entertained when I read sports columns. Burns indeed entertains, and he adds a lot to TigerNet. I also like the data he uses to support his claims, except he forgot to include any crime stats for Miami.
Oh well. I must be confused but I thought Burns wrote that he wasn't going to be disrespectful and he was not going to say all that stuff about the home of the Hurricanes. Great column! Loved it.

Thank you, Mr. Burns.

I'd prefer to see Burns drop the "Hater's Game" sections.


Oct 23, 2009, 12:58 PM

There's no shortage of that garbage on the Internet and no need to give it an even bigger audience.

Great article. Loved it even though I didn't agree with everything. And some of my best friends live in Miami and they are not criminals as far as I know.

This is embarrassing journalism. Miami never goes out of state for OOC games?

Umm, this decade:

‘00
At Washington
‘01
At Penn State
‘02
At Tennessee
‘03
At Louisiana Tech
’04
At Houston
‘05
At Temple
‘06
At Louisville
‘07
At Oklahoma
‘08
At Texas A&M

Next year we’ll be traveling to Ohio State, and we’re in talks to do a home and home with Nebraska.

Thanks for playing.

Sorry, I've been informed that the talks with Nebraska have already been finalized and we'll be traveling there in 2014. We're also traveling to Pitt next year, in addition to Ohio State, and we have home and homes set up with Kansas State and Rutgers.
