So when is Clemson going to rename "Memorial Stadium?"


Aug 22, 2018, 4:52 PM

You know the one that MEMORIALizes heroic men and women that gave the ULTIMATE sacrifice all around the world in hellish places against fascists and nazis and commies so that ALL Americans would have the chance to live a free country as a free people instead of being herded like sheep.

Anybody heard of any suggestions?

"People's Republic of Clemsonistan Futbol Pitch" sounds like the future.

Everyone please pray it doesn't give ole Ben Skardon a heart attack.

I know Red Dyess is spinning in his grave.

Where some students tore down the confederate statue on campus yesterday....
To the delight of many.

their Tar Heel moniker? That's a Civil War reference, isn't it. Oh, the shame.

Why

Re: Enjoy your thumbs down


Aug 22, 2018, 6:58 PM

Because instead of actually discussing the reasons to leave up confederate symbols or to take them down, he posted something completely asinine.

You can agree one way or the other, but don't just post bad comparisons to whine. If he had an actual thought out reason for either side I wouldn't thumbs down him, even if I disagree. But this post serves literally no purpose. It is crap and what a down vote button was made for.

I merely made a truthful report of an event that actually happened . Obviously there were many who were delighted as quite a mob of students and non students took part in this crime. Some think that the police allowed it to happen. I assure you that many were involved in the removal of this confederate solider . Quite frankly I'm ashamed to live in a state where that happens and I assure I'm as anti chalet hill as anyone alive! Sorry you misinterpreted my sincere post.

I was only responding to the original poster. I apologize if you thought it was directed at you.

My bad. I thought since I. Was the one who posted about the confederate solder memorial that you post was intended for me. Perhaps reading comprehension isn’t one of my strong suites!

There is no good excuse to take them down. None none at all

Congrats. You're the first one to suggest it***

“No one ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb person die for his country”

When they played that quote on one of my first few days of infantry training it changed my perspective on Memorial Day. It certainly motivated me not to die.

The plain answer is “never!” If Clemson renames anything it would be the playing field.

Frankly Clemson needs to recognize the multiple HOF coaches in our football history and obviously Dabo will be added to the list.

A HOF avenue of statues would be a worthwhile addition to the stadium. Few programs have such an acclaimed legacy of coaching legends.

Go Tigers ??!!

The OP is just alarmist slippery slope hyperventilating nonsense. One of the top 5 posts I have ever seen on this forum.

Yet of course it gets a bunch of upvotes cause people can't stop and think for one second.

top 5 worst ^***
