We've all taken pride in seeing other teams message boards go to hell and a hand basket after a loss... tonight is our time to bask in the infamy. I'm more disgusted than mad... it's time to let the captain sink with the ship.

Do we need to dig up your old avatar?

I am happy as hell I didn't drive up to watch another lambasting with you.

I'm too drunk to remember what my old name was when I was in the Fire RMC crowd... but I would love someone to remind me so I can get it correct with the Fire CJL crowd!

This is similar in one way to the fire RMC era...RMC couldn't get a break to save his life, from Bradley Mosley's death to Bryant's knees to other injuries and troubles.  No footing at all.  Leaviit's footing has slipped losing at one point or another or the entire season Grothe, Taylor, Bonani, and now Mitchell.  There looked to be a few banged up tonight.  It will be interesting to see. 

It's left meltdown mode and may be in snowball mode now.

The comment was lost on you.

That's not what I said.  And in fact, we did get off the plane.  I saw the team on TV.

To explain, when RMC was on the guillotine, he tried desperately to turn things around, pulling off a few big wins here and there.  But every step forward was met with a push backwards.

Applying that to today's football scenario, I am suggesting that it will be hard for the direction of football to "get better" with the current injuries and any more.  Losing Mitchell was not good.  I saw Love go down, not sure if he returned.  But losing another top receiver would make it more difficult for Leavitt.

So, we could be seeing something that those of us that have been around have seen before - where a coach gets into a bad position and then finds it hard to get out of as bad things continue to happen.  Hence, the "snowball" comment.

Does that help?

there are a ton of factors making it more difficult on leavitt, starting with our cheap ass school not wanting to spend money on the staff but unloading a ton on the HC.

like you said problems are piling on top of each other and the moment we get a big win (WVU) we get slapped back to earth.
