Night Game vs Navy in Dublin....... Jack is an Idiot
- Thread starter Get Nasty
- Start date
Now that is funny and a clear indication of how uninformed and how ignorant you are.
You don't possess one tenth of my fortitude !
I’m sorry at your age it’s difficult to follow the conversation. The OP clearly was aggravated about arriving home on Sunday morning, and it’s impact on the next game or two this season.
I’ve read your monotonous comments about traveling distances. That is such an intelligent assertion, that traveling over time zones will produce fatigue more than not. How would we have never figured that out!?
Also, you sure like to make assumptions for a guy that always demands, but never produces, evidence.
Also told you I have the itinerary, and also shared my extensive travels . I just don’t name drop like you prefer.
Thx Captain Obvious
as I get older, and in failing health, I am more regretful of the harsh, nasty comments and attacks I may have made over the years. I wish I had considered this a long time ago.
Not true, the OP never mentioned the next game in his opening post.
I never made any assumptions as you erroneously state.
My sources are at the epicenter of the travel issue, one of which I had lunch with today.
What are your sources ?
Simple question for you:
Does traveling to Europe, playing a game on a Saturday/Sunday, then flying back to the U.S. to play a game on the following Saturday/Sunday have a negative impact on a player’s/team’s performance, including the potential for additional injuries ?
YES or NO ?
You still struggle to stay up to speed. I didn’t say the Original Poster stated such in his original post. But he clearly inferred such and he did state in his following post(s).
You make assumptions and allegations in most every post. So Pat Mucci, your arrogance is only outweighed by your lack of awareness.
Knew you couldn’t go that long without starting to name drop. How about you REVEAL YOUR LUNCH SOURCE, we know you so want to! My source is the football staff.
Simple answer. Yes. For 18-22 yr olds, not so much.
Should it risk a loss to Tenn State? Absolutely not.
You’re wrong, ”Get Nasty” NEVER mentioned Tennessee State in his second post or any subsequent post.
Maybe you weren't aware of that.
It‘s not “name dropping” its citing a reliable, if not irrefutable sources.
My sources are the owners of NFL teams, one of which had lunch with me today.
So who do you think has more experience with their team playing in Europe, your “football staff” who have never played in Europe, or my source who has ?
Haha. Ole Patti…you need to do more crossword puzzles. I know it requires some thinking on your part, but the 4th post absolutely tries to compare the hangover from last years OSU game to the Marshall game….and what he was doing here in this thread. Maybe do some more knitting?
So it’s an NFL owner today! Yay!
I guess Marcus or Al or Gerad or the other coaches have only driven to their away games in their careers. Lol
I should have known better to engage an obtuse poster like yourself. You drag me to your level and clog the board with your extensive experience in such.
Have a good weekend if you are able to keep dry
What‘s the “not so much” degree of distinction between 18-22 year olds and 22-30 year olds.
22-30 year olds who don’t have to attend class who spend the entire day conditioning and practicing, 22-30 year olds who are exponentially better athletes in better condition than your 18-22 year olds ?
NFL players are far superior to college football players, and as such they’re better able to adapt to and withstand the rigors of international travel
I never stated that ND would lose to TS
The fellow at lunch, an NFL owner, happens to be a personal friend of mine.
Marshall and OSU have nothing to do with Tennessee State.
‘Would you cite where “Get Nasty” specifically mentions TS.
I think he was more concerned about NC State.
None of the coaches you mentioned has ever played in or coached a game in Europe.
The issue is playing internationally, not inter-sectionally, have someone explain that to you.
You should have known not to engage me because you knew or should have known that you would come out on the short end of the stick. 😜
I hope you enjoy this special weekend with your family and friends
The same was said after travel issues back from Columbus…. Tenn state is worse than Marshall and we definitely shouldn’t lose, it’s just stupid
Just for the record, Bama beat ND in 86 28-10. The game was played in Birmingham at Legion Field where the TIde played at least 3 games a year until 1999.
Brought their record to 5-0, whereas ND fell to 1-3. 86 was Ray Perkins' last year there. They went 10-3.
The following year, they fell to 7-5 under Bill Curry, but were 11th ranked and 7-2 when they played ND and got pretty much destroyed. Mark Green and Ricky Watters both had 75 yard TD runs late in the game.
What a difference a year can sometimes make.
ND 37 Alabama 6
Everyone or almost everyone stated travel issues were of no concern and we’d blow out Marshall.
If travel isn’t an issue, why do home teams have an inherent advantage, one that Vegas incorporates into the point spread ?
Love the British Open, away Ryder Cup, London NFL and Euro played NCAA because, for me, morning coffee and good sports are a rare treat. Wish this was a 9:00ET game. Be better for the kids too. But gotta keep NBC happy I guess. Can't see this being Crafty Jacks fault.
It’s generally not the fans and more due to the fact that the home team’s routine is NOT disturbed.
For the home team it’s SOP
Prove me wrong. Freeman said on his Monday presser after OSU the team would be ready for marshall, posters stated kids were young and wouldn't the issues wouldn't impact them.
After the season was over freeman said he reflected and talked about how much of an impact their travel issues he thinks actually had.
So who is the one not being honest? Not one poster here didn't think we'd blow out marshall including me.
Maybe ND fans, but you play at a stadium that has a full stadium engaged and not selling out it's impactful in big games.
What type of speak is this you are doing? No, I have not seen your baseball. lol
So in your opinion was the travel delays an issue in our performance last year or not? Was freeman doing coach speak right after osu or when he reflected after the season?
I'm good at that. I took it up very seriously after my playing career finished at the age of 24 many years ago.
It's called a letdown game. It happens to teams all the time where travel has nothing to do with it.
Freeman made the ohio game the super bowl. We played hard and with a ton of emotion. The players from their pressers seemed deflated and had nothing in the tank after. They put everything into that game. They just weren't mentally prepared to play Marshall. Thats on the coaches and the players. They all did a poor job.
Also, Marshall was better than expected. So it was a double whammy. Come out extremely flat and the team across was better than expected.
Upset. Happens a lot in sports. Have to learn from that experience. Travel has nothing to do with it
If you are Notre Dame, do not lose to Marshall and Stanford at home. Especially in the same season.
And I agree, travel had nothing to do with it.
