After Muschamp was fired he gave a press conference and sounded somewhat level headed. There was literally a thread on SG about "Should we have kept Muschamp?" Butters gets hired and you'd think we just brought in the next Spurrier. He gets blown out the last 3 games, goes to OT vs. 3-9 FAU, and you better not DARE say a negative thing - it was Muschamp's fault!! (the same guy who had a 10 page thread about "should we have kept him?").
I was one of the founding members of gatorcountry. I've drank beers w/ Ray (Solari), Franz, Bob Redman, and many others from that site. I started the thread "breaking" the Zook got into a fight at the frat house (I knew a local sports radio/tv guy who told me and it hadn't made the news yet so I started the thread. It was probably the longest thread in swampgas history).
I left there in the 2008 season when they let PD run rampant in the 'insiders' forum (the pay board). I rejoined w/ a new username about 2012 or so. I was posting regularly until jhbyrd started posting there and I was done with it.
The homerism is too much. I get it that being "negative" is bad for their business model....but being realistic is not "negative".
I was a pumper back in the days you came on board and I remember getting into with you, well, mainly you flogging me and telling me I should go to SG with my sunshine pump.
I’m over all that now, pumperism that is; and I don’t hold grudges as it takes too much effort.
Anyway, I know I speak for many others that we are grateful you found GCMB and bring all that you do, links and discussions.
Thanks and Cheers BMF!
