Walkers Wondering Thoughts of Wisdom, Part 2
Get pumped boys and girls. The second installment of random batherings, which are pretty much meaningless, has finaly arrived. Some thoughts may be insightful, most are pointless. You be the judge.
- Harper has now thrown 33% of the interceptions he threw in all of last season. Hmm, there is room for improvement here.
- NC State guys have a rule, one must remove your shirt during game and appear to be drunk. This apparently an NC State fan standard, even when you are not in you own house.
- I did not see any NC State fans peeing in their seats. Good news for all.
- I have decided to purchase an orange Mini and put a system in it which will rival the sound system behind the scoreboard, it will be awesome.
-Ron Cherry hates Clemson…and Clemson hates Ron Cherry. I can not express to you how much Clemson hates Ron, the dictionary is lacking a word with this degree of descriptive power.
-I, along with many of you, still have my concerns about this team. NC State, going into this game, was ranked 116th in total offense in the NCAA. Is that ok they scored 9 against us?
-Who is this Maryland team? Where did they come from? Why are they coming to Clemson in two Weeks? Can we hang with them right now? I feel sick…
-NC State scored 9 points based on Harpers mistakes. Is it harsh to bring this up?
-Supposedly, on a send a text message and vote Alltel ad. Clemson fans like the all purple uniforms the best. Am I the only fan that thinks this is concerning?
- Did I mention Ron Cherry is the Devil?
-Props to Tommy and his staff. This weeks team looked better than last weeks team.
-Even thought we have won two games since Alabama, the hurt is still there.
-USC lost to UGA, that makes me feel better.
I would write my own post but as it is just random thoughts of my own, I will just piggy back.
1. Can someone please please PLEASE show me what a horse collar tackle is and isn’t? Oh wait, obviously they were exemplified in today’ game.
2. The Clemson offense is so Vanilla it is sickening.
3. Rob Spence hates it when CJ and Jacoby break off big plays. It makes him look greedy and then he has to apologize to the opposing coaches. CJ says F that and tries to break it off every play. Thank you CJ.
4. 4th quarter, I texted Bowman and said “Spence has gone to not lose mode, don’t expect anything else”.
5. Jacoby Ford is now the sleeper on the team. Harper overthrew all day and somehow Jacoby made our offense look good.
6. You have to feel sorry for James Davis. Came back for THIS!
And FINALLY, I must continue my orange haze rage against the ACC in the fact that Va Tech decided that it was their turn to go all Orange. WTF people!!
Harper had a pretty good game statistically, but his mistakes really stood out. Without those mistakes, the game wouldn’t have been nearly so close, probably more like 36 to 3.
Aside from those mistakes, I thought everyone played a pretty good game. Davis, Spiller, Ford, and Kelly were out there fighting and putting forth a lot of effort. The D, as a whole, played great. They only gave up a field goal and a missed field goal; not too shabby.
As long as Ron isn’t reffing the Maryland, Wake, FSU games . . . we’ll be fine. We’re going to have trouble winning those without him on the other side of the ball.
D didn’t look too bad.
Bowden will never put Korn in. He didn’t take Whitehurst out when he sucked it up his sophomore year. He didn’t take Proctor out . . . Harper has the ball this year. I just hope he snaps out of it and starts playing better.
Well it was nice to see Tommy at least acting like Harper had something to worry about. After the fumble he had Korn up and throwing. Most likely just to scare Harper a little but still good to see.
Personal Foul on Ron Cherry. 15 yards automatic first down.
Watched the game pay-per-view in Ohio. Worst officiated game ever. Bad even by Cherry standards.
Concerned w/ JD. CJ made some innocent comments in his post-game. Something like, “wanted to show the O-line that I run hard for them”? Has JD checked-out?
I remember a soccer game where a player went up to the ref and said, “Hey ref, we’d like to make a substitution,” to which the ref asked, “but I don’t see the player to be brought in.”
“That’s right, we want you replaced…”
I’m making too many soccer references on this blog…
Perhaps, but I’m LOL.
