Pumper here. I know many of you are upset about


Sep 18, 2022, 10:06 AM

the loss last night but thought I’d throw my $0.02 in.

What a great day of tailgating! The weather couldn’t have been more perfect. Great food, drink and friends. Just top notch all the way around. It’s always like a homecoming and will never get old.

The new lighting stuff is pretty cool and people seemed to dig it. Video board was better, showing timeouts and the down-distance stuff was bigger. I’m sure they will keep working on it and will get better and better.

Early on the place was rocking pretty good. Seemed the crowd wore out kinda’ quickly. Sometimes night games, particularly without a marquee opponent, will do that to you. It was a loooong day.

I got to sit near a 5 year old fan. If you ever find yourself taking this game too seriously and being mad about everything, just hang out with a child. His enthusiasm was infectious and my whole section really benefited from that.

In spite of popular opinion, there were a lot of positives in the game. Keep up the progress and we’ll be fine. We probably won’t win the title this year, but we have a good team. If you can’t enjoy the team unless they win the natty, I don’t know what to tell you.

I left the stadium on a high that lasted until I opened TNet…I’ll have to reconsider doing that in the future. Life is too short to lose your mind over a game. Many of the posts on here just boggle the mind. So much hate. So much negativity.

If you aren’t enjoying Clemson football, there are many other things you can spend your time on. Seriously.

Peace. Go Tigers! Beat Wake!

Well said. I don’t look at TNet during games because I don’t allow the negativity into my space. Had a friend tell me after the game there were a lot of nasty things said in here last night. I’m not wading through all those. Seeing enough negativity this morning to last for a while. It was a long day. But a beautiful one and I can’t think of any place I would have rather been that right here at home in Clemson.

They obviously got worn out quickly because that first half sucked.

We are all glad $115M buys us a good time!


Sep 18, 2022, 10:25 AM

But, in the grand scheme of things, you are 100% correct that these games are meaningless. We all have more important things in our life.

Well, I didn’t say the games are “meaningless”.

IMO, these games are part of the fabric of our lives. A common bond between us and our families, friends and classmates, and total strangers.

I believe we should take advantage of every opportunity to be together and celebrate our common love of Clemson and college football.

Win or lose.

Meaningless? How can you call a football game between a college most of us attended many years ago and another team we have no connection to, meaningless? If we don’t win, and by that I mean, blow the other team off the field and cause them to fire their coach, it’s gonna make me very angry and cause me to mistreat my family.

I can’t watch the games near children, women and children flee ?

Exactly Noodle!

We are currently a good team.

And, that's all you can ask to be honest. We have gotten spoiled around here; because I recall a time we would have been excited as all get out to be ranked #5 and also be undefeated.

Keep going Tigers! Keep getting better and figuring it out week to week!

POTD. I intentionally avoided tnet during the struggle part of the game. All the negativity does not help the frustration I was feeling. It is a game to be enjoyed and not life or death stuff. I need to remember to enjoy it and not take it so seriously. I see progress with the offense and the defense needs work but were without many key players.

It is good to stay away. There are allot of raw emotions and frustration. You have to give grace for in game comments.

I know rationality goes out the door for me in there moment when I am watching my Tigers.

If “fans” have a hard time with the way we are winning these days it must be because they are spoiled. They must not remember the final seasons of Frank Howard, who I loved playing for, or Hootie, who I still have zero use for, or Red Parker, or Hatfield, or Bowden, etc. we have been living a dream come true in ‘ The Promised Land’ compared to very much of our past. I’m very thankful for what we now have. All of us should be, too, IMO.

There is some Buddhist saying about some need a beautiful garden and some can see the beauty in the weeds. I agree that we may as well enjoy the beautiful day but we're watching bad football.

Thank you. I was actually embarrassed Reading some


Sep 18, 2022, 10:53 AM

These threads on here this morning. Seems to be a lot of people taking out their frustrations on other things and projecting them onto Clemson football and Clemson fans

Well at least the dumb, obnoxious and irrational comments fade away within a couple days. It could be worse. Just think if you were Carolina Jackpot and were stuck with video of hours upon hours of stupid, irrational, obnoxious and vulgar comments for all time.
