Red's last stand - Clemson Game

[RedtheGOB]

It’s a big game. Would think the school and program would be making a big deal of Donnie’s return soon too.

It’s just stupid to pull this game time decision crap.

"back in my day, we'd walk to this game and wouldn't complain!"

Uphill. Both ways. Barefoot.

 

[Blanko97]

Main roads key point. And none of that is SYRACUSE. Or people that live in the city or near the dome. 11:32 the plow just came by on my street and turned our street into a one way because of lack of plowing knowledge. As you can see, I get quite cranky when I know I’m not gonna get my nachos grande at the game lol

I miss these winters as a kid, the bliss of ignorance

It's really windy in DC. I find it annoying.

Dry and windy here outside the beltway all winter so far. Be nice to get one decent snow for the first time in a while

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Yes, snow should be over by gametime but how will Clemson even get here. Wouldn’t they arrive today and there is no way that is happening.

My son flew in from FL with no problems this AM. Arrived at 10:00 AM, on time.

Not only is this his last stand, this game will decide the fate of Syracuse athletics in general. If the squad doesn’t win this game emphatically, all teams will be shut down permanently, scholarships will be revoked, and the Melo Center will be rented out for kid’s birthday parties.

So yeah, this one is a big deal.

I believe the entire county will be evacuated, similar to Albuquerque NM on a the show “Pluribus”

The airport isn’t closed. I’m sure they’ll make it in

I think they would arrive on game day assuming they get a few hours before warmups

It's not just the team. How do the refs get here? Or more importantly, the tv people?

 

[Sbucketball]

Brownell told Red that Clemson showing up is a game time decision.

Be great if I wasn’t a 39 year old who just fell down 2 flights of stairs. Luckily bought one of those electric snow shovels. Thing is a champ. It’s nice snow though, but the wind is making everything tough.

You fell down. 2 flights of stairs? Really and for true? It’s lucky you’re 39 or you’d be dead! Congratulations?

 

[bballbeadle]

Usually I park on one of the side streets off Euclid. But I am pretty sure those won’t be plowed. They are low priority because they are students’ houses. So I can make it only so far and then where do I park? TBD, I guess.

I hope Clemson is discombulated by the travel. That should help us. These games have become nerve wracking again. My nerves are so very very tired of being wracked.

S**ts getting real when Dinosaur BBQ closes...

I thought Tennessee was Red's last stand - and we won. Will every ACC game be a last stand? If we go 12-6 we still get 6 Little Big Horn defeats.

This is a 50/50 game. Clemson is a better team but not as good as Tennessee and we have home court advantage. Following this game, our next four opponents are the weakest of ACC. We could start with 5-0 ACC record if we beat Clemson. This will give Red some breathing room as too many people want him gone.

The same way the fans do?

Just drove back from Michigan to DC area in the wind and snow storm, and I'm happy to not have any snow for the moment...

Yeah took the railing off our wall to paint the wall. Had my “winter socks” on. Slid on the hardwood and the first stair. Hit my tailbone then my back hit the edge of the stair. I went down like a freaking luge in the Olympics. X rays on my back Friday.

And mind you I’m suppose to be taking a 25 day golf trip to Florida, Texas, California and Scottsdale starting January 18 so I don’t care if I need a new spine, I’m going lol

The important thing is you have a good excuse if you play poorly

I am 78, and I am planning to go to this game. My son is questionable though due to employment obligations. Who schedules a game for 2PM on a work day?

 

[JKinUtah]

It’s in the 80s and beautiful here in Costa Rica - I don’t know what everyone is complaining about. Pura Vida!

I have to adjust my work schedule also, but a number of schools have scheduled afternoon games this week, particularly tomorrow with New Year's Eve.

Didn’t know you were a Strathmore guy, Bulldog. I’m careful never to reveal too much about myself but decent chance you know some of my family.

I wondered where else in Syracuse, besides the university area, where there are Tudor houses.

Grew up in Syracuse and i don’t think I ever went to that area.
