The Biggest Disappointment........


Oct 27, 2021, 9:03 AM

I wanted to share this from an author on a another Clemson website. I thought the last paragraph was extremely brilliant!

"This team deserves better, a lot better. Some fans are spoiled, entitled and unreasonable not because they voice their displeasure but in the depths they’ve taken it. Not only towards this team but to each other. It tears at the fabric of that which we all hold dear. More than the on the field failures of the team, the failures of those that support this team are the most glaring. We fans, not this team, are the greater disappointment to Clemson in 2021."

The pen, tongue and keyboard are mightier than the sword!

GO TIGERS!!!!

Why is everyone so #### soft in todays society?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed...

People are now soft. Some fans can't even take a 4-3 record without melting. I've taken many bad seasons with little to no complaint. But, I'm a real man.

The soft part is our fans who are stupid enough to think we would never have a down season so they implode when it happens. A close second are fans who think they know what changes to make which will magically fix the program where we will never ever miss the playoffs again.

LOL, the irony.

You calling people stupid and telling them they dont know what they are talking about implies that you do, which is the very thing you are criticizing them for. Also telling people they dont know what they see with their own eyes is pretty rich as well. Im no chef, but I know when my dinner is burned.

Place you in the category he was referring to.

Nowhere in his post did he say he knew any answers to fix the team.

He simply stated that some people are dumb enough to think they know the answers when they don't.

Dumb people think they know a lot and often assume they know everything.

Smart people realize there is a lot they don't know.

Sure if your food is burnt you would know what could have been done better, but if your food isn't burnt but still tastes bad, can you find the single spice or ingredient that caused the problem with the dish.

Sure you still know it tastes bad but unless you are a trained chef you likely have no idea what to tell the chef to fix the problem.

Nice job proving the previous poster's point.

Amen Bro…..it is obvious (to me) that the “Karens and Snowflakes” culture is alive and well now among our Clemson’family’…..how terribly disappointing.

Through many years of work and dealing with people, I have always found that the most vociferous people are those that are opposed to something and rarely represent the vast majority. I have always encouraged those that are for something to be as loudly heard. I think the same is true here. You are mostly, by a long shot, hearing mostly those that are reacting negatively and not those who are supportive of Clemson athletics and football in particular. I'll bet on Saturday you are going to hear 80,000 people who love Clemson football and will pull as hard for them as they ever have.

Yes, we are all spoiled by our recent success, and probably disappointed, but as a whole we are solidly behind Dabo and the Tigers. Our program is a lot more than just winning games ..... as so well described in the heart felt media question session with Matt Bockhorst.

The Biggest Disappointment...The Best Part is


Oct 27, 2021, 9:51 AM

Getting rid of the bandwagon fans!

Anyone that knows the game knows the sun doesn't shine up the same dogs a$$ all the time. The experience all of the teams have has created a parity I haven't seen in years. Look at the depth chart on most teams. The teams with the best records have mostly Super Seniors. Our coaches haven't forgotten how to coach, but I'm am surprised that we haven't found a solution to fit DJ's strengths. It's been the kind of year that injuries have gotten in our way. If you think about it this year has been a year like no other when it comes to injuries. I blame NCAA for making schools thud hit in practices, not really giving players a chance for their bodies to get use to what they see on Saturday's. Most of the teams I've seen can't tackle a wet bag on the beach.

My recommendation would be for our offensive coordinator to study the offense of Coastal Carolina. Can you imagine what our team could do with that offense? Watch them tomorrow night. That offense is fun to watch and they post a ton of points.

Anyway that's my .02.

GO TIGERS scalp the semiholes!

Am I a Dabo supporter? Yes, of course!! BV?? i believe is brilliant.... our assistants not so much..
I understand our problems with the injuries.. that is something you can't control.
I guess my biggest issue is the lack of information during press conferences. Do i expect Dabo to tell us EVERYTHING? Absolutely NOT! You don't want the competition knowing our weaknessess or divulging personal player information. But i think he could have saved himself some headaches if he would have lead us to believe early in the season that the offense had some maturity issue instead of waiting till game 7. He knew, I'm sure he knew! Or that his recievers were not solid blockers and were having issues running routes correctly. Just have more honesty with your fan base. Don't sugar coat! Don't be afraid to throw a guy under the bus... these men need to grow up as men!!
