Things in sports you are just plain tired of

Fox's overly dramatic shots of a nervous, brooding or pensive fan between pitches. I want to watch sports, not melodrama.

 

Guessing it's been said a few times, but ...

Athletes who say God was responsible for their victory, as if the Big Guy takes sides in a basketball game.

 

When he was coach at Arkansas State, Dickey Nutt had a uniformed cop with him at every game. Guy sat right behind Dickey's chair on the bench. Kinda funny when the cop got booted from the Sun Belt Conference tournament for not having a credential. Someone at Arkansas State forgot to count him as a member of the traveling party, so he got tossed.

 

Rich Rodriguez. Nothing like taking the football program with the nation's longest bowl steak (1975-2007) and having two crappy seasons - 3-9 and 5-5, with whuppins from Wisconsin and Ohio State on deck.

Second-season turnaround specialist? Try tied for 10th place in the Big Ten with friggin' Indiana.

He inherited a program that was coming off an 11-2 season and a win over the second coming, Tim Tebow, and his Gators - in Florida.

 

In Gerry Faust's first year at Akron, he had a police escort for a game at Eastern Michigan. Seriously.

 

Michigan was 9-4 in Lloyd's last year. They were 11-2 the previous year. But yea, fuck RichRod. He definitely blows dick.

 

Conspiracy theories.

 

Insufferable Cleveland fans (I am one) who think they're entitled to something.

 

Excuse me if I don't cry a river for Michigan and its fans.

The school knew what it was getting ready to get into bed with and now they've gotten what they deserved. There is some saying about laying down with dogs and getting fleas....

And the fans pushed Lloyd Carr out the door and were never happy with him and so now they've got what they deserved.

With that in mind --- I'm not saying Fat Charlie shouldn't be fired at Notre Dame, but the team is likely going to finish 9-3 or 8-4, go to the Gator Bowl and will have a shot to win against some mediocre ACC team - and he'll have Clausen and those receivers back and a better, more experienced defese - perhaps Irish fans should look a little bit northeast to their rivals in maize and blue and decide if they really are ready for yet another coaching change because sometimes it doesn't work out well......

 

Steelers fans......

 

I sit corrected. Sorry.
