Might as well give aPaladin his own thread since he is already down about next year.

Actually it is usually good to have apaladin interject more REALITY into this board. Other than his bringing up baseball excessively and also insultingly expressing his disdain towards the Furman administration occasionally and maybe some other irritating posts, apaladin is a valued member. It is often good to receive apaladin’s thoughts and comments.

Thank you Roundball for teeing this up. But first, we have to beat Mercer. Then after the victory we'll circle back to sh*tting all over our collective hopes and dreams. As Norman Vincent Peale once said, "Optimism is for losers".

Agreed. We need a little more reality. Those with objective notions are often oppressed here. Which is scary. Not being political - I know about recent events lol - but America and democracy is having a right to free speech etc… even my father CAREER MILITARY 33 years.. says as much as it kills him he is fighting for the very right of others to burn the flag and have different opinions. That’s true.

I'll give you some reality. I'll give it to you right now. And it is BIG news regarding our probable victory against those Mercer boys.

I caught a possum on Friday night / Saturday morning. It was the very first night I put out the trap. (The bait was Japanese sweet potato leftover gunk, btw.) Its a littler feller, and brownish. I've never seen coloration like this on a possum. And its a juvenile, which makes no sense since its way past possum mating season. I really don't know what to make of it.

I thought it was a girl, and it took me like fifteen minutes to identify its gender. But lo, there it was. And its a boy. I've named him Bifurcated.

My aim is to keep him alive through for another nine months until we start the new season. I think having a really good possum like Bifurcated will be key to the Paladins going all the way next year.

Brown, you say?

Maybe it am a midget bear.

Free speech??
Getting a little dramatic aren’t we?
There are fans and there are fair weather fans.
“Fans” who trash the whole secondary or call for a coach to be fired in a game where we beat a nationally ranked team are not fans, IMHO.
This is a public forum that we know players read. If you don’t think that feeling support from fans when a season is tough isn’t important, then we will just have to disagree about human nature. Praise in public and criticize in private has been a lesson my dad taught me a long time ago.

Bifurcated is doing really well in his pen (its a dog crate). He appears to be gaining up a bit.

I'm on the road for bidness this coming week and into the next. (Northern Ireland, of all places, where they don't got no Thanksgiving break). Mrs. Tex said she will keep little Bifurcated watered and with as many table craps as he wants. He appears to like vegetables but not fruit. Go figure. There's always something to learn in Possumry.
