I couldn't focus on one thing Dabo said after ESPN screwed

up his overall record right off the bat at the beginning of the show. As he began talking, ESPN idiots put up on the screen "97-27 in 10 years as head coach". Technically, that is correct if you don't count the interim record of 4-3. And technically, 97-27 is a better percentage and number. But come on ESPN, everything that has ever been printed in every media guide from Clemson, ESPN's very own broadcasts, and every football magazine you can buy, lists Swinney's record at 101-30 in 10+ seasons. He got his 100th victory in Columbia with the 34-10 victory, much was made of that. Why all of a sudden do they decide to calculate it differently? Its the kind of thing that drives me nuts. I hope its not due to information the new SID is putting out. I mean his record is 101-30, end of discussion. GET IT RIGHT ESPN, or Clemson SID or whoever all of a sudden contradicts every count that has been presented for the last 10= years.

Good grief man...that little thing ruined your mood that much that you immediately stopped watching and began questioning the SID?
I don’t understand people sometimes.

what he was saying after looking at that crap. Fortunately, they have something called a DVR so I went back and listened to what Dabo had to say. It was a good interview, but that is not surprising with Dabo. I am now on the part where Luginbill, someone I have a lot of respect for, is talking about our QB situation.
And having two different inconsistent coaching records floating around, as of today, is unnecessary and bothersome. It should not be happening at this level and has not been until today. Why did that change today? ESPN? New SID's first event? Why today is that number all of a sudden in flux?

Has to be that new SID that was mentored by Bourret and chosen by Dabo himself.
Couldn’t have just been an ESPN mistake right?
Don’t take everything overboard. It’ll all be okay, I promise.

When you could have just not mentioned it at all, the entire topic.

You want a cookie or something? Congrats message board hero.
I have seen a pattern of incessant negativity in your posts. And then there’s that one where you said you were done with Clemson forever. Was that linked in this thread? I forget.

times, but if you want to hang on to that and ignore several apologies so be it. I don't really care what you think about me. I care about the Clemson Tigers and any negative posts that I have made, except for the infamous separation post, have been simply to point out a concern that I have and to express that concern. As for the separation post, I have said that I regretted that post and it was nothing to do with anything the athletic department did.
No I on't want a cookie for the posts of the day or HOF. I never new Tigernet kept up with that until I stumbled across it a few months ago. I checked yours out when I replied and you are probably one of the few on here that have more posts of the day and HOF posts than I do. You probably didn't know that either.

The points don’t matter.
I suppose you were just trying to raise a topic, and that’s okay.
But if you let a simple stat at the bottom of a screen affect your outlook to the level that you can’t focus, or much worse, decide to question a new hire following a legend...I felt it necessary to say that was too far. That’s all I’m saying.

Yes, I'm a little overboard on certain little things

that just get my goat. #### retentive at times guilty as charged. But I don't walk around blathering about things that bother me all the time. Just very easy to type concerns on here about something I really care about. In my life, I can either fix the things that bother me, or shut up about them. I don't make everyone around me miserable.

Fair enough. If you can’t do it on a message board, where can you,
We’ll still have to agree to disagree about the architecture of the new buildings on campus. ??

Technically couldn't both of those records be correct?
