Has football apathy reached its zenith or has football support reached its nadir?

This inquiring mind wants to know…but it still doesn't give a $iena about this game.

I have to say that some of the comments in the Syracuse game thread are not aging particularly well. Naming no names, but I’m wondering if a couple of members would like to weigh in after 5 more losses...11 in a row for those keeping count at home. It’s tough right now. I’d like to root for the team so that they get a win or two to reward them for their efforts. On the other hand, I don’t want some mirage of “we are turning it around” to cloud the dismal lack of success under GG. I’ve met him. Seems like a nice fellow. But you don’t get paid 300k to be a nice fellow.

Was just going to post that.  JMU to move all 19 sports to Sunbelt effective June 2022.  Usually growing pains in football moving up but they are always competitive in FBS games so they might fit in right away.  Only issue is the CAA told them no CAA championships after they announce the move.  That will affect most sports this winter and Spring but since football has no conference playoffs, I assume they can get an at-large bid.

UNH is bad.  We are worse.  Our announcers are putrid.  

[Dane96]

Wtf how do you not contain that muffed snap to the UNH punter.  

[Dane96]

Laughable that no one is commenting and watching.  I’m the true sucker today. Like a bad relationship, I’m sucked in.  I need therapy. 
 

took us 4 plays to score from the 1.

I am watching from my usual spot. Just didn't comment. 🏈⚽🏀🏀🏐 In the next 7 days

I’ve been watching Union v Ithaca. Dutchmen down 10-0 at the half. On their best drive they had 5, count em, 5 5 yard penalties. Then missed a FG.

What's there to talk about... he'll win a game or two and will try to pull the wool over everyone's eyes ..see....I'm headed in the right direction. His career is irredeemable here at UA. He deserves no more chances. Although I've long predicted that even if he goes winless (appears he won't) this season...he will be back to coach out contract. The scary thing is what happens if this perennial loser pulls a rabbit out of his hat in a walk season.

Good for JMU. Where does that leave the CAA? The bloom will definitely be off the rose for football. JMU was the only team to crack the top 100 on Sagarin this week. Villanova was 128, which would put it mid pack in the MVC and just making the top third in the Big Sky. For whatever reason, recruiting disadvantage, budget, coaching, etc, the CAA for football is in danger of becoming a second tier FCS conference. It'll be interesting to see who gets the at large bids this year.

 

Oh, and congrats to the Danes. Off the schneid as Berman used to say...maybe he still does...

I feel good for the kids.  And, I hope they feel good too!

[Clickclack]

Congrats to the kids...Fire Greg Gattuso and all the staff. Means nothing in the long run. His career at UA is irredeemable regardless of meaningless wins...

Between 1st and 2nd Q's...'nuff said:

lol, I turned it on just now and only managed to just skip around the game to watch some quick spots. I'd rather watch literally anything else. Completely disinterested.

Congrats to the kids for not going winless...but also booo that we aren't going winless lol.
