Monday Morning Quarterback
I knew it was coming, so here goes...
For the first time in my entire life, I have admitted to myself that we do not have a good football team here at Michigan State. It was hard to type that, but it's even harder to think about. After a loss, I ask myself why we lost. What happened? Bad breaks? Rough day? Better opponent? Well after Saturday night, the only explanation I have is that we are a bad football team. Plain and simple. We do not have much talent as a whole, and the talent we do have is either inexperienced or hasn't played to their potential once this year. Not that I'm ever gonna lose faith, but it's getting to be towards panic time now. We're 1-2. The big ten starts Saturday, and we're about to get ambushed at Indiana if we don't step up. Then, another away game at Iowa, which is almost a guaranteed loss. So, best case scenario, we're lookin at 2-3 before the next home game. Thats bad. Granted 3-2 isnt out of the question, but neither is 1-4, and that scares the shit out of me. I can't take it anymore. I'm sick and tired of being known as a 'basketball school,' especially when we havent been that good in hoop by our standards recently. Just one time before I graduated from here I wanted to say that I am fully confident that we'll be playing a bowl game on New Year's day. Well, in order for that to happen now, I better go to grad school.
Go State, Beat... fuckin ANYBODY
