Clemson ranked #5 in ESPN's Bottom 10

kinda wierd

5. Clepson (1-2)
No, that's not a misspelling. That's a phonetic spelling. As a proud owner of an Upstate South Carolina high school diploma (Go Travelers Rest Devildogs!), I can tell you that occupant of the coveted No. 5 spot isn't pronounced with an "m" in the middle, it's with "p." So, I call it "Clepsoning." As I envision it, coach Dabo Swinney got back to his desk on Sunday and checked his voicemail. Beep. "Hey Dabo, Danny Ford here. I wanted to let you know that there's an old playbook of mine stuffed behind the file cabinet in your office. I know the pages are yellowed and the plays are 30 years old, but pretty much anything in there will work better than what you just tried. Thanks." Beep. You have no more messages.

Lets see, we are in the bottom 10 BUT

we took the #1 team in the nation to O/T ? Had the game in our hands and gave it away, these articles may be amusing but the writer has no business with football related articles.

######, I really hate eSECpn, they as an organization hate them some Clemson. This sh!t boils my blood. Just as we are trying to move past a painful loss, some a$$hole trying to be funny at my schools expense. Go to H3LL!

I've just took a 'proud owner,' and I need to wipe my ESPiN!
Thanks for checking the sewer and tracking the crap all over Tnet's carpet.

the game - they didn't prevent us from winning. And who is this guy from Travelers Rest? Sounds like an idiot.

When you give games away in the manner in which we just did, people tend to make fun of you.
We were pummeling the #1, in their own house, and then slipped on a banana peel. Not once, but about six or eight times in the game.
Facepalm-inducing stuff. It's not often you see a team as obviously talented as ours obviously is give away a game in that fashion.

Sounds like another cootish attempt to belittle Clemson.
This article just sucks.

It's sad but I have to agree with him. We blew it BIG TIME saturday and until we stop doing that we're going to have to learn to endure articles like this one.
I also like what he said about the SEC East:
The bad news? Vandy lost again. The good news? The Commodores are still in the hunt in the SEC East, which is in a "Talladega Nights" footrace with the ACC Coastal for the award of "Power 5 Conference Division Most Resembling a Plate of Spaghetti."

Sad to see a "journalist" earn money without having critical thinking skills. Oh well, it's the new Amerika.

Hey Scribe. You don't drop the "M" when you add the "P" ...

I lived in Clemp-Son for 43 years. I know how it's pronounced and how it's spelled phonetically.
It's not Clepson.
It's Clemp-Son ... as (totally) opposed to Clem-Zen.
