No, I'm not saying that negators have a point, I just also balance out with the points that the pumpers make. I guess that makes me a pumper. Look its just about a total echo chamber in here. Its not productive and despite what a few think, its anything but being a passionate fan. Now before you slam me, I'm not saying everyone falls in this category, but when so much negativity occurs, it becomes SOP to call our coaches and players names. Point out everything that may go against us and just generally wallow in negativity. I honestly believe that SOME are actively rooting for failure just to prove they are right.

Your garbage post got me banned once already. Anyone that spends the time that most of us do on here are diehard fans for various reasons. How long have we been awful? It's years and years. You forgot the good times. I was a pumper for the first six games last year. My waterloo was falling for that fake FG when everyone but Belk boy knew they were going to fake vs LSU. That was amateur hour and it has been ever since. I rarely call out players if ever. Coaches make millions and are fair game. Win or get gone.

Ox you're from gsmb right? That board is trashed. It's like a ghost town. What a pos. And swamp gas is full of a bunch of delusional A-holes. Am I allowed to say the other boards on here or is that a violation? Seriously happy I found this board. I should've just not have been lazy all these years and used Google to find a decent message board. Anyways back on topic... Alboverdi and Cordoza are the worst. I couldn't stand Cordoza from years ago when he had a show on another radio network. The guy has no clue what he's talking about when it comes to football. And Alboverdi gets worse everyday. I guess we shouldn't expect two guys that work at the university radio station to give an objective review of what's ACTUALLY happening. It's all day though. Russell is the worst by far. He stuck up for Zook. He backed Muschamp until it was curtains and now it's Mac. And is it me or is Mac the worst out of Zook, Chump and Mac?
Yes I was a mod on the GSMB. Were you a part of that? Good to have you aboard.

People are only really commenting on what's happening. I really don't think there's much positive going on in the football program right now. If there was one positive thing (playing competitively against elite programs, recruiting with the elite, or anything at all) it would be reflected in the comments on the Gator message boards. I definitely think that "dumpster fire" is an overused phrase. But this program is basically just that right now. You can try to look at it from different angles but it's just a mess all around. I really didn't think it could be worse than Muschamp. But other than that 4-8 year for Chump, it's as bad and in some respects it's worse. Recruiting hasn't been this average in the last 25 years for example. There's absolutely no excuse for this staff to not be getting elite high school football players to come here. The thing that looks like is becoming clear to everyone now is that McElwain is an embarrassment to this football program on the recruiting trail. I will say that I think this staff is better at developing talent on the Offensive side of the ball than Muschamp's staff. But we're splitting hairs when you start looking at that kind of stuff. We could've probably had a championship run next year or the following year if this crap staff could've landed Grimes, Leatherwood and 10-15 more elite kids from our own state. But having a below average (for Florida) recruiting class will continue to put us behind the elite programs that surround us. How far are we behind Bama and Fsu? Probably three or four classes behind them. Now we're starting to lose ground on Uga, scUM and others. This has to be McElwain's last year. We cannot give him a fourth year if he doesn't absolutely knock it out of the park this year. Because it's just going to keep setting us back. I don't know about anyone else but Florida football is one of my favorite thing to follow and have FUN. Mac needs to stop saying "isn't this fun"? Because it's not fun when you have a terrible play caller and the team looks like it's coached by a high school staff. Go Gators!

Welcome to the Board. Probably 90% of us here are from the old Hamster Wheel called GSMB. We put it out of its New York Times misery and Ox became Dr. Chatterstein and created a great melting pot of Gator fan zealots. We are the definitive 1st Amendment Gator Message Board where Pumpers and Realist mingle in a bizarre form of harmony. It took you long enough brother, but glad you found the mother-ship of Gator opinions.
Good take above^ Go Gators!

Yes, just don't go on another board. Ox brings out Lucille and starts offing people if you do. It gets ugly quickly

We actually allow both negators and pumpers, so long as you understand you have to just ignore Coach. He's always drunk posting.

Also, don't try to decipher Roggish until you've been around a while.

And is it me or is Mac the worst out of Zook, Chump and Mac?
I'd say Chump is still the worst. Not sure what will happen. Regardless, Butters the Swamp Donkey has been pushing for facilities and that will outlive him regardless of how poor the roster gets.

Bruce,

Some of us don't have the luxury of reading your novel, keep it to the point. We suck at everything, that is all. Welcome.
