I harp on Tigernet a lot for the stupidity of their commenters, but anyone who has been paying attention to Tnet’s David Hood knows that the ignorance of the messageboards has now crept into the coverage. How mouthbreathery bad is it? How cringeworthy? I’ll just say that this post set the Clemson fanbase back at least a decade in “internet respect knuckles points” which I’m sure you’re all familiar with and therefore realize the gravity of the situation. How bad? Just read this opening paragraph:
January 1, 2013
MIAMI, FL (AP) – Junior quarterback Tajh Boyd threw two touchdown passes and Mike Bellamy rushed for two more as the Clemson Tigers won the first BCS Bowl game in the program’s history with a 31-23 victory over Nebraska in the Discover Orange Bowl.
If that doesn’t sort of make your stomach turn a little bit then you’re living in an amazing, ethereal fantasy world of meth induced splendor, and I have nothing to say to you because you’re not listening. Here’s the “creepy old dude fantasizing about the future of himself and a bunch of 17 year olds” article in its entire, sunshine-pumping, miserable existence.

Another victim of Tardnet’s Sunday school strength filter:

As you know, he’s talking about Major Dick Winters, immortalized in HBO’s Band of Brothers. RIP.

This edition of Dumb Shit on Tigernet (and TI) is captured from a week in the life of the Clemson Tigers. The first posts were grabbed during the post-NCSU celebrations. Tigernet was awash in euphoria and everything was looking tits.
The next batch was snatched up after we handed the Seminoles a game on a nice platter down there in Tally. The Tigers were positively TANKING and everything sucked. Wait, why am I using the past tense there?
BOOM. BOOK IT. DONE.


This guy actually brings up a good point.

Florida State just beat the Tigers, and everybody points their fingers at what they perceive to be the team’s problems. People’s weird personal hangups start to reveal themselves, whether they are insistent upon proper attire on the sideline, determined that we get out of the ACC, or quick to defend a failing season at any and all costs.
Top coats wingtips for every coach! Foppish Lad Coaching Squad assemble!

While appreciative of his positive attitude, the “overuse” of quotation marks in this guy’s garbled regurgitation of hackneyed slogans makes me want to kick him square in the crotch luggage. Also, is “Git It Done” the new “clicking on all cylinders?”

Yes, because above all else do you know what our hurting ass, 5-5 team needs this season? Tougher competition.

Some fans take the masochist route and hope for the absolute worst. The cup is half full. Of shit.

You see, here’s a guy whose email looks crazy as a shit house rat on the surface, but if you dig deep it’s pretty hard to argue with. I just have to correct him/her on one thing; we’re not a national joke. We don’t have that kind of broad recognition. We’re a regional joke.

Oops pow SURPRISE PLAYS ARE WHAT WE NEED GODDAMNIT

You’re going to lose some in a transition period. You’ve just gotta let them go. Look, Clemson recruits plenty of talent, keeping recruits isn’t the issue, it’s managing to coach them up to something once they get here that’s important. Get the coaches here to do it, everything else will fall into place.

Just throwing this out there, a Bill Cowher, Jon Gruden, and Mike Leach run the team as a triumvirate? Boom. Pretty cool right?
