Can't stand the way most of the national media today.......

is portraying Dabo as a heartless person who doesn't care about COVID-19 and player safety.
Just heard Boomer Esiason on CBS Sports Radio - blasted Dabo for this - didn't say ONE WORD about what Dabo said about how we met all ACC protocols, etc. which should have allowed the game to be played.
Did just read ESPN.com article, though, that was pretty objective - did discuss meeting the ACC protocols, etc. as Dabo discussed Sunday evening.

How do you classify most of the national media? You say most of them and then list one example.

Boomer is an annoying know it all. I agree that he probably spouted off without listening to or reading the transcript of Dabo's remarks. All this frothing over player's health when we apparently followed the ACC protocol is interesting. If we really want to get down to brass tacks regarding player's health, we probably should eliminate football entirely. How many former football players end up with debilitating arthritis? How many end up requiring joint replacements? How many end up with CTE? I am not advocating that, but it is doubtful while yet uncertain, that football players will end up suffering more from exposure to Covid than will suffer from injuries sustained during their playing career. One team while certainly able to cancel a game for any reason should be penalized if the opposing team followed established Covid protocol. From my understanding, the player who ultimately tested positive on Friday had two prior negative tests and while originally symptomatic was not symptomatic for several days prior to the positive test on Friday. If Boomer wants to attack Dabo, he also needs to attack our medical staff. Is there any proof whatsoever that our medical staff said no go regarding the ultimately positive testing player and Dabo said WTH, screw that, I'm taking this reserve anyway? Not likely Boomer!

Folks, he works for CBS, the channel that carries SEC football. All I want is for six to eight trumpets to play El DeGuello as much as possible the next time we play the Noles in football; and then stomp a mud hole in their backsides.

Boomer has always had bad blood for Clemson. Back in the '80s when we were on probation and couldn't win the ACC, Clemson was playing Maryland late in the season. Our ACC record would have made us ACC Champs that year. I remember Clemson sacking Boomer multiple times. The crowd kept chanting "Boomer sucks, Boomer sucks". He literally shot birds at the student section during the game. A real class act.

I think the last time Boomer took a snap in the Valley was the BALLOON game and he was down by 42-7 by early third quarter. His comments today are as weak as his play was then.

I was at that game and maybe the loudest I ever heard our fans. We beat the ever loving crap out of them that day and in interviews after the game Boomer was asked what it felt like to be the ACC champions. His comment was something like "after today's game I sure don't feel like an ACC champion".

Boomer hasn't really cared for us since his Twerps won the ACC by losing 52-27 to us.
