I agree with everything that you said Bill. But I have to say that my personal character has always been to tell the truth regardless if your truth may hurt yourself or others, and I have done my best to do that. I'm not going to say that I have never told a lie bc I have, and it's been to keep the peace within my family with one or the other, and think that most that love their family will do the same. But telling a lie to improve my situation with my job or to save my job, I have never in my life done that and I wouldn't bc the truth is what I believe in over all.
I'm not going to accuse Kirk of lying bc I don't know his true inner feeling about the way the Heisman is or isn't done, It's just that it's hard for me personally to believe that he truly believes that popularity isn't the biggest part of how voters vote for the Heisman winners. My personal feelings has been that popularity pushed through the sports media for the past 8 to 10 years has decided the the Heisman winners. I know and admit that I'm bias when it comes to anything Clemson, but I'm also honest enough with myself to realize and know a great college FB player when I see one, and I honestly and truthfully believe the voters voted for what the sports media was pushing when they IMO blindly over looked CJ Spiller and Deshaun Watson. I just don't believe they voted from what they saw from watching games or through what they could have saw through just high light film. Compare the game and high light film of the players they chose against the game and high light film of CJ Spiller and Deshaun Watson, and it tells the story of how wrong the voters were, and that they didn't vote with what their eyes saw and what their hearts felt IF they had watched the film!!!
