Wonder where we'd be without our defensive guru head coach.

I'm in. Better than rehashing the same old gripes. At least "smirking sarcasm" might put a smile on my face come the rest of this season's Saturdays.

My thinking exactly. 'Course, I'll also likely be doing a lot of drinking Saturdays this Fall--another strategy. Not a big change, I suppose--but worth noting for several reasons. Might give it a whole different "edge", while dulling another one altogether. Figure to be less tense about the actual results regardless. I've already found that somewhat to be the case. The less concerned, the less worried, have you noticed? I've always found that cynicism has its benefits in this life; I'm just sorry to have to apply it here. Gator Football is the last bastion of wide-eyed hope and uncontaminated joy in this world for me. Screw everyone involved for robbing us of that before the season is a month old!

I see your point, but I will reserve judgement for some point after the Tennessee game. Florida definitely should have lost more gracefully than it did, but as an engineer I need at least three data points before I start making a trendline.

Thanks, man. Tryin'. (But will find my laughs where I can.)

I guess it depends on how you count "data points"--but I see (and understand) your point, E-. Lets just say I look empirically to some extent as well--and from where I've been sitting there have been MORE than that for every key area-of-concern by now. Pick any one of 'em, we've sadly seen enough to say with a fair amount of certainty, "That's where we're headed", "That's the way it is", and/or "It's not gonna get much, if any, better". That you can still go on with any hope at all is something that, if anything, I envy. All I've got left in the meantime is "Hope you're the one whose right". That small-and-shrinking possibility is what hope's all about, but at some point everyone reaches the breaking point. Passed mine. Think you'll know when you reach yours. Sounds like you can at least SEE yours from here...
