Why all the posts obsessing over SC's failure


Dec 28, 2014, 7:55 PM

Look, I hate SC as much as the next guy, and the 5 year win streak was as unbearable for me as it was for many of you. Trust me, i'm from Columbia, and the trips home from Clemson for breaks were unbearable at times.

But the streak is over and order has been restored, so I don't see any reason to write post after post about any failure an SC player, coach, recruit, or former player has. I can understand those posts during the dark times of the streak perhaps, but I come to TIGERnet to read posts about the TIGERS, not about the Gamecocks. If you want to discuss SC and their internal issues, take it to FGF or one of their other 50 message boards.

I grew up knowing where we stand in the pecking order, and that is Clemson > SC by miles. The Gamecocks have historically obsessed over Clemson because they knew we were better too, and they obsessed over justifying anything that would make them feel more equal. CLEMSON FANS SHOULD NEVER EVER STOOP TO THIS LEVEL! We are the better program, university and fanbase, and it drives me crazy to see some of those within our own fanbase act like how the "coots" act about Clemson. Don't think the SC fans don't come on to TigerNet and see the frequent posts about their team, which have nothing to do with CLEMSON football, and get some sense of gratitude from it. It's all their fanbase really has going for them.

Let's get it together Tigers, we have plenty to discuss about our OWN team. Let's beat the Sooners and look forward to an offseason filled with excellent recruiting, and successful recovery for those who were injured this season.

Go Tigers, Beat Oklahoma!

USC has always been Clemson's measuring stick.

The one thing Clemson could always hang its hat on was they were better than Carolina and always would be. The past five years have shown that might not be the case anymore.

As a Carolina fan you could feel a real difference in your fan base while tailgating in 2014 than you could before the game in 2006.

Until the recent wild anomaly streak, Clemson fans EXPECTED to beat the chickens. You basically admitted that yourself, but when you expect to beat someone there's no way that can be considered a measuring stick. Maybe you don't really understand what the term measuring stick means? By the way, does having 13.5k posts on your rival's website indicate you're obsessed?

The idea is that you would compare yourself is that you would compare yourself to someone better. However that isn't a must. You often see golfers sandbagging so they can gain self worth by beating golfers below their ability.

A "measuring stick" in this context is saying a specific goal is used to gauge whether or not a season is successful. Beating you most every time became routine. It's like saying beating Wake forest is a measuring stick. It's not the same as the golfer reference, not even close.

You forgot to address replying in a post about obsession when you have 13.5k posts on your rival's website.

what THIS Clemson fan knows is the usce has been hanging their hats on Clemson the last five years. you know and i know that you have survived solely on $ec money and $ec reputation and a 5 year winning streak, in which you and your lameass fanbase and drunk coach has taken EVERY chance to talk smack on Clemson. even when Coach Swinney made respectful comments about Lattimore, your drunkass coach took shots at Clemson. Your version of Whitehurst made an ### out of himself by signing a CLEMSON helmet "We own the state". Your fanbase decided to go to the Clemson LSU game a couple of years ago wearing tshirts that said USC 4 LSU.

SO now, you wonder why we blast out at usuck even now? Its because order HAS been restored. No, your program IS behind ours, and its likely to stay that way for a while now. Dont be telling us fans of many many years that we "dont need to stoop to their level". Clemson has NEVER been at the low life level of usuck fans and never will. From throwing batteries at Clemson players going into and coming out of the locker room, to throwing balloons full of #### at the players, there are MANY instances of how low the coots sink. Clemson fans and students would NEVER stoop to this level. Im guessing some of you young ones will never remember when Tanneyhill after a usuck win in Clemson walked out to mid field and stomped on the paw.

So, Im not one to rant, but this "lets play nicey nice with usc and Shaw" crap is just that. Crap. Grow a set of balls and quit this love fest with the coots. It aint happenin.

Perfect recent example, I go over to a coot's house with my wife to watch the Coot Miami game and not long after being there, she brings out a picture of Spurlid spanking Dabo and puts it on the mantle. Leaves it up the entire game.

It was a fun rivalry before spurlid arrived. From that point on, his smarta$$ attiutude rubbed on the gullable lamecock fan base. Spurlid is experienced in digging knives into the backs of opponents and it carried over to the fanbase. I hope he has nightmares of a one legged quarterback shredding his poor defense.

Not in this life time, not me never, I hate gamecocks period. I didn't come to hating them just because. I had what I believe to be good coot friends until they won the first 2 under spurrier. I learned very quick that we were friends b/c I was a Tiger fan that didn't try and make them feel worse after a loss to us. I didn't rub it in their faces b/c they were my friends I thought until that two straight under slurrier and here they come at me with the BS they were hearing from their coot friends and spurrier rubbing Dabo the wrong way. But anyway, I no longer have any coot friends, and never in this life time will I ever have another one. They can't handle winning with respect even to their friends.

Now in the "real" world nobody really wants to see another fail in life unless they are a tool and need to be knocked down a peg or two....

I can pull for a guy like Spurrier to "fail" because his future and the financial stability of his family is secure if he has been a good steward of his finances....so he can go to h3ll....

you are apparently very young. I assure you after going on 50 years,living in Columbia, now Atlanta there is a NASTIER, CAUSTIC streak in more of the Gamecock fan base than there ever has been in Clemson's. It's only natural as it is driven by the huge chip they rightfully have on their shoulder. South Carolina's football program in particular was never very good. Especially not consistently, rife with epic failures, dark chapters. I have many many people I consider good friends and acquaintances that are gamecock fans. It's only been in the previous 4 years or so that inferiority complex has begun to lessen a little. Now they are in the great but over hyped SEC and they have Alabama and everyone else to look up to as well.
Feeling good, confident, tolerant of their traditional betters is not in many of the Gamecock football fans football psyche yet.

Why would Clemson use SCar as a measuring stick? We own you in every statistic imaginable. Our stick is much bigger than yours.

Our measuring stick right now is FSU. Has been for a while now.

We won 10 of 12 before your 5. And we did 5 in a row twice already. And we own the record with 7 in a row.

I have no problem saying your our measuring stick if you actually were. But you are not and you might as well accept the fact we will always be your measuring stick and you will not be ours.

Someone doesn't understand the concept of schadenfreude


Dec 29, 2014, 8:05 AM

Here you go:

schadenfreude [shahd-n-froi-duh]

noun

1. satisfaction or pleasure felt at someone else's misfortune.

Origin
1890-95; < German, equivalent to Schaden harm + Freude joy



The fact that there's a term for it in the dictionary indicates it's a pretty common thing.

I have some newsy advice for you

Your counsel will fall on deaf ears. People will always crow about, taunt, detract from, demean, degrade, and take narcissistic pleasure in pointing out our arch rival's shortfalls and failures. Believe me, your lecturing won't change a thing. It's the nature of things (are you just a real young person, like under 30?)

Have you learned that the coots have been kicked out of T-Net or something. Because half of T-Net are coots, and keeping the conversation off of them is impossible!!! It ain't going to happen no matter how much us Tigers would love to see it happen.

I have this strange ability where I can enjoy the Tiger successes and revel in the Coots' misery at the same time.

How I'm able to juggle both tasks simultaneously, I'll never know.

while a sad statement, I am actually surprised that

some of our friends around here are not calling you a coot. Good post and my sentiments exactly
