    Sure as hell would never spend $1000 to be a spectator for anything, but we are going to make the short drive north for for some of the fan stuff on Sunday.


    Did anyone remember to invite the NC St. kicker to the party?

    Is The Colonnade still open in Tampa?? I remember that place being outstanding for seafood.

Frescos is the only waterfront restaurant downtown-good fish spread and nice view. Central Ave between 2nd & 3rd street good place to go to a few bars and walk around.
    We are meeting some friends, that live in Clearwater. I believe they mentioned Parkshore Grill. He enjoys eating as much as I do, so he usually does not make bad choices

    Y'all have a safe trip down. If anyone is going south on 95 up around Manning, I'd find another way. They are doing road work from exit 132 to 119 on the south side. And based on the amount of lost yankees I have had around the house, it's backed up pretty good. 301 is still out so there isn't a good alternative. Not sure about the weekend schedule

    The irony of you ding dongs down in south florida spreading around $2 bills the week after one of your players went all Michael sam and groped an opposing player in his cock and balls, only to followed up by a huge amount of defending these homosexual acts as just a normal part of the game - is fascinating. Enjoy the circle jerk. Hope the queen cd's aren't scratched for the drive down in the Mini Cooper. Or are y'all taking the orange prius?

    You'd give your cock and balls for the Gamecocks to sniff success like Clemson has enjoyed the last few years. And for the record, my crew has a minivan rented for the trip.

    There is absolutely nothing gay about listening to Queen.

    I can respect a fan that is true to his team alot more than I can the bandwagon fan. If Clemson wins you can bet there will be a run on Clemson stuff at Walmart and even more heybo's talking about how they been a life long Clemson fan.

    No doubt. That would be the case with any team. What that wouldn't diminish, to me personally, is the feeling of satisfaction that I would enjoy from having been a fan for many years, a third generation graduate that met my wife there (also a graduate), and a person that has followed this team all across the country to watch games that meant far less than this one.

    I promise you that I don't care what others think about what makes me happy. I love Clemson University as well as the Clemson Tigers, and if they happen to win on Monday night, I will be one happy summamabitch. If they don't win, they will have lost to the better team. I will be disappointed, but very proud of what they have accomplished. The hair will still stand up on my arms next September when they get to the top of the hill and my eyes will get puffy when they sing the alma mater. That won't ever change.

    College football is a lot like the financial class system in the United States. It's very easy to remain in the same socioeconomic class that your parents were in. The difficult thing is to work hard and ascend classes. Even more difficult is to ascend and remain there. This group of Clemson players and coaches has vaulted Clemson football several classes over the last 8 years, and it has been a lot of fun. The challenge now is to continually reinvent yourself to remain in that class. Clemson Football is at a point now where we can shop at the most expensive store in the country, and I hope we can get us one of those crystal balls Monday night.

    Charley's is a good choice...make sure you get the crab cake appetizer, and the bone-in ribeye.

    To me that is THE key. If you weren't with me when I was broke then don't expect anything when I make it big. Loyalty through all phases are what counts.

    This is going to one of the best NC games in the history of college football. As a fan of the game with no dog in the fight I can tell you I get nervous for both sides just thinking about it.

    Go knucks deep and diddle them balls!

    I'd put sitting in the rain in Nashville watching a loss to Kentucky up against about anything.
