. I really want to win, and I feel more involved when we do well. That said, it's not life or death like it used to be. I
BEEECAUSE the real life and death is much more present in our lives now than when we were invulnerable youngsters....... but I still get animated during the game. I can still scare small children and pets with my enthusiasms.............

Sounds like PE has a kindred soul.

Sometimes life is hard and you get criticized. Hell, it happens to me at my job. You pull up your pants and do better. Do touchy-feely guys like you ever consider that the boos might HELP some of these players? Motivate them? Make them work harder?

It may help some but most probably not. Recall Spurrier called,out fans for booing his last season at UF. If he thought it was helpful why didn't he encourage it? But OBC didn't know much about football now did he?

If that actually made sense, it may have been an intriguing comment.

It does make sense to me, enough sense I did not want to steal another person's idea. His coach was slamming UF fans in his post game press conference just a week ago.

TL;DR all 8 pages, but here are my thoughts: Franks needs to grow up. Collectively Gator Nation was done with him and then Trask was hurt. I have to think that if EJ was ready, Mullen would have played him. We're stuck.

Let's review shall we?

1) We won in the Swamp w/30+ points and 500+ yards.
2) #1 = F.U.N.
3) #2 = Happy Happy Joy Joy, n'est-ce pas?

Yeah the thing I hate most about it is that now the narrative of the day is that the fans suck and/or the team has an "us against the world mentality"

I just want to enjoy the d*** win

When FF was ssshing I had 3 thoughts:

1. Happy for him he was havjng success
2. Ugh. Why are you taunting your own fans?
3. We better get a barrel of tissues for GCMB.

Who let Ltard out of Politicts?

Um...that's Ltards cousin.

Funny when Lboy posted in PF people complained "why don't you post about sports, are you a pussy?". When he posted in sports forums certain posters called for his banning and demanded the return of their beloved echo chamber safe zone.

I changed my mind. Go back. Pollute only one forum with your vaginathink.

Franks has had one good game and all the rest meh to outright suck. He is in no position to lecture his own fans who paid for those seats. He's lucky to even be on the roster. Thanks for playing hard today Franks, now grow up. You're not an SEC-caliber QB yet so keep working to get better and knock off the Mickey Mouse shyte.

The mental midget will hopefully get beat out for the starting job by no later than the end of spring ball and he can transfer to a FCS or Louisiana directional school and ride the bench.

Fact....he wouldn't be starting at any other SEC school, including UT or UK, and won't be starting at UF once we get some QB depth.

I’ll happily take today’s Franks for the rest of the season.

I love a fan that can say so much in just a few words. Nomad is a righteous poster. I will try to emulate him more......................whotf am I kidding?

Frank's STFU carries way more weight than curmudgeon posters..........I would not give it a second thought. If I thought defending my starting QB after so much improvement this year was smart I would probably vote differently, too.
