Train wrecks sell newspapers. Thanks to Amandas Dad and his uncle oDay, we haven't had to buy one. The comedy has all taken place on here. I laugh, not at the griz as a team, but as a whole for all the idiocy that occurs on this site when the sh!t hits the fan. You guys make me laugh.

The joke is on you. 36-10!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey Hammer, let's go with some recent history. Jokes on you! Your former coach and AD are standing in line at the unemployment office.

13 straight BSC titles. 17 straight playoff appearances. 7 NC appearances. 2 NC flags flying above WA/Griz. Absolute OWNAGE of the instate "rival" (and I use that term very loosely). Griz fans have had it pretty fucking good over the past two decades. Thus the idiocy occurs when the shit hits the fan because Griz fans are so rarely exposed to the shit hitting the fan, unlike 'scat fans who have spent the better part of their LIVES in front a fan covered in shit....pardon us if this is not a common issue for us and we're not clear how to act. We could, of course, take pointers from 'scat fans..

The big picture in all of this, and the point I've been trying to emphasize is that anyone outside of the magical kingdom under Mt Sentinel, could give a rats ass as to who won the last 50 Cat/griz games. Or even last years game!

Its the negative press that people are caring about. Did Penn State even play football last year? You wouldn't know it if they did due to all of the glory giving press they've received!

 

[Blgs Griz Fan]

atlcat, instead of sitting by laughin, your time would be better spent heading to Bozeman to help search for the serial rapist prowling the streets of Bozeman. In case you haven't heard, two rapes in 10 days and counting.

 

[grizhunter]

Of course Billings is a very very clean town.

 

[Phat Cat]

Whether you agree or disagree with the contents of either news article, the fact of the matter is that the awful things that have happened to these young women, has been exposed on a widespread, national level. That is not good for um! Period
Press clippings aren't going to be of glowing happiness and sunshine being blown up your maroon loving butts.
For Engstrom to sit by and appear idle by not doing anything would look even worse. Something had to be done to start off new.
Gonna be some tough sledding for griz fans.
I'll be sitting by, laughing.

We had this happen to us not that long ago. A dead dude killed by two ex-players, guys dealing blow and a coach selling crank. Check yourself ATLCAT. Your making us Cat fans look like doughe bags. I see nothing to be laughing about. But that's me, becuase I'm not a asshole.

I wasn't aware our story had led ESPN's Sportscenter every night.

I got news for you: After our 15 minutes (which are pretty much over), nobody outside of the magical kingdome under Mt. Sentinel could really give a rats ass about what's gone on at UM outside the lines either.

so in a few weeks we will be back to getting courted by all the BCS conferences to move up?

 

[Blgs Griz Fan]

Good point phatcat. I would never have posted in this blog if atlcat hadn't pulled out the holier than thou card. I hope and pray the Bozeman PD catch this fellow and soon and God forbid he is a member of Bobcat athletics.
Hopefully the Griz are 13 minutes into their 15 minutes of fame.

Outside of Missoula (and possibly the state of Montana)....yep, it pretty much already has. :| :roll:

Opinions about football programs don't magically disappear. All football fans who hear the words "Miami Hurricanes" automatically think "thug program". Do you want Montana to get that same rap?

Growler, unfortunately, it is too late for our football program to not have that kind of label. IT may not be to the magnitude of Miami with college football fans, or the media. However, amongst FCS fans, and media, we already have that kind of label, and you are right, it won't disappear. That is the sad reality, thanks to a few boneheaded decisions, by a few too many players, over the years.

Lets be real: All football fans who hear the words 'Montana Grizzlies" automatically think 'WHO?'

That's the funniest quote in this thread. You guys talk all year long about how big griz nation is and how proud you are. There's entire threads devoted to patting each other on the butt about having seen 'multiple' people wearing griz gear at televised sporting events like the PGA event in Phoenix. Another example is how you turds devote threads to being so great that um will always be televised by espn if you are in the playoffs.
Now, several bad press clippings have shown up and you want to hide your heads in the mud? I'm guessing that by hiding your heads in the mud, that's what has lead to these bad press clippings.
I'll say it again. Guilty or not guilty, bad press is bad press.
Perception perception perception.

The difference is that Miami didn't take action themselves, someone else had to. Canning the coach of the year and his boss sends a pretty strong statement. Like it or not THAT has been the lead.
