October 21, 200717 yr Author Sorry you feel that way Carufel. Er, Colin KSU... Dude...You watched this game, right? That team quit. They didn't quit on the school or its fans...They quit on Charlie. That's the sign of a big problem.
October 21, 200717 yr there was a thread earlier tonight titled just "charlie" but its gone now is it not fair to question Weis? what happens IF Notre Dame goes 1-11? they way they are playing its very possible
October 21, 200717 yr Author Tough to quit something you never started... Even worse. You can now think that this team quit on Charlie before the season even began. Look...There's only one excuse for this team having this talent and being, statistically, the worst team in college football. They quit on Charlie. They quit quickly and decisvely.
October 21, 200717 yr Remember my post about still "buying" Charlie? Yes, I remember the thread. And please remember when we have righted our ship...that I was still on board? With this said...I am also feeling the loss, okay. I am not trying to blow sunshine where it doesn't belong. But I am still in full support of those in charge. If and when there ever were to be a coaching change, and I for one am not calling for one...I will then support the next coach and his staff with the same respect that I have for the current staff. And will always remain supportive of our guys on the field. Supporting our team doesn't necessarily mean I like the situation. I must have been programed like this from my days in the military? And I am not at all calling out anyone for having negative opinions. Hell, mine isn't so rosy at this time either. It's just that I have my own thoughts. But I equally respect everyone elses.
October 21, 200717 yr We sure as hell all believed in '05... we all believed last season as well... When the crap gets weeded out of our roster and our quality starts to develop, you'll buy Charlie once again...
October 21, 200717 yr that loss was extreme ugly and i havent been this pissed all year, but i still have faith in charlie weis, i dont know about some of the people on his staff cough...latina, but i still have faith in him especially after watching his post press conference
October 21, 200717 yr Author We sure as hell all believed in '05... we all believed last season as well... When the crap gets weeded out of our roster and our quality starts to develop, you'll buy Charlie once again... Maybe and if that happens, I'll be the first person to admit I was wrong. What bothers me about these boards is that you simply CANNOT be pissed by what you're seeing because then you suddenly are a "band wagon" fan and don't really like Notre Dame. No, guys. It's that I'm so sickened by what I saw because I love Notre Dame. However, things are really starting to add up here, man. Charlie is at the helm of the worst ***-kickings in Notre Dame history, and he's widening the gap further seemingly everytime they take the field. Where's the progression? This team has been worse every single year he's been here and we STILL can't beat a decent team. Never have under Charlie...Will we ever?
October 21, 200717 yr I like to think of it this way,,,, Right now you have puppy pitbulls being bitten by adult german shepards. But wait until the pitbulls grow up!!! It WILL be different!
October 21, 200717 yr id rather hear of a different similarity other than pitbulls. here in Ontario Canada they have a ban on pitbulls, and as far as i remember any newborn pitbulls have to be destroyed (i think).. so in that similarity ND having puppy pitbulls would have to be destroyed, allthough i know what you mean. i know a maybe better similarity. older brother picking on his baby brother, but eventually baby brother will grow up and seek revenge on older brother
October 21, 200717 yr It's tough not to give up when your 1-7. We all talk about Weis, and we blame everything on him, but we need to hold our players accountable. We can't throw it down the field because Evan CAN'T THROW!! You saw how inaccurate he was. We don't tackle, we don't play smart. That's shit you come out of high school knowing how to do. Lambert wiffing on tackles, he and Ambrose tripping, and bumping into each other. It was like a circus out their with them. I can't wait until next year when we bring in the new guys.

This team has been worse every single year he's been here and we STILL can't beat a decent team. Never have under Charlie...Will we ever? I myself do not see you in this manner Colin. I know where you stand by the quality posts you have contributed. And I for one do not see anything wrong with your opinion, nor anyone else's for that matter. Keep it coming...it's why we are here. To share our thoughts on the the Irish. For the first quater and half way into the second, I felt we were going to be okay? Then we just de-materialized...'poof'...where did we go? What made it worse, as if anything else was needed to do so...I had a few SC fans eating the carne asada I bought...and feeding me crow!
October 21, 200717 yr I'm a solid ND guy, but I believe we have the worst offense in the history of college football. It's getting hard to stomach.
October 21, 200717 yr Author How can you look negatively on 2005? I can't. That was an awesome season. We didn't beat any really good teams (Tenn was down and we got beat by SC and OSU), but it was a fun year. However, look at 2006. That team had all the weapons as the positions they needed to be even better and they fell off a good deal from the previous season and got shelled by USC and LSU.
October 21, 200717 yr I'm a solid ND guy, but I believe we have the worst offense in the history of college football. It's getting hard to stomach. Looking back a ways...this may eventually be a fact? There is no sugar coating this, by no means.
October 21, 200717 yr well! If the crap needs weeded out then why didnt it need weeded out last year. Those were Ty's guys too! Quit making excuses guys. This IS Charlie's fault. Period.
October 21, 200717 yr yes this charlies fault, he is the head coach, if you listen to his presser after the game you might give him some slack no one has quit on charlie or notre dame, just look for major improvement in the next few games. .. we are notre dame now and forever , charlie stays. go irish
I was wrong. Sorry.
