Some of you can't watch another football game without twisting it into

[Ranger Dan]

some vendetta against players, coaches, etc. that you don't like. No matter who the teams are, they will talk about the head coaches a lot... they will also talk about the best players a lot. Get over it. If you don't watch Penn State games on TV, they do the same for CJF and for our best players. They also fawned all over Joe. They have to talk about something between plays. The announcers do not benefit from promoting certain players, coaches or teams. They are just trying to keep the game interesting for most fans.

Also, Jim Delaney and the Big Ten as a whole (including officiating crews) aren't out to get Penn State. Neither is ESPN, Dave Jones, or the rest of the media. People are human, but generally try to do their best. They also work towards their best interest and intentionally sabotaging Penn State is not in their best interest. A universal bias or grad conspiracy is not plausible.

For those of you that take exception, I hope you are more objective and less paranoid in your interests outside of Penn State football.

I guess this is the time for me to admit I think Ed Cunningham actually does a good job of calling the games. He is very knowledgable.

I agree Dan, this board has gone down hill the past year. Everyone who loses is overrated, everyone who wins would be hammered in the B1G and by us.

When are you going to make another one of your "that's what she said" jokes? That was so hilarious

 

[Ranger Dan]

Maybe we did, but it was easy to ignore the complaining posts.

Am I the first guy to make that joke here? No, not really... Sorry if you don't like my type of humor.

Yea, you're right - the b1g shiz-hole didn't purposely blow the call in 2005 (both on the field AND in the Replay Booth Procedure) that cost PSU an undefeated season and place in the National Championship Bowl. If you believe that, you are truly delusional or didn't see the play - because it wasn't even in question as to whether his 1st Foot landing hit the Out-of-Bounds Stripe (fully half his foot straddled the line upon landing); that or you simply have never seen the play. There is no other explanation for the call given the Replay Rules in place at the time (plays under 2 minutes that are even "close", let alone "beyond obvious" are supposed to be mandatory reviews). Laughable to claim that this call was not intentionally blown (e.g., otherwise known as "cheating" and a detriment to the "integrity of the game") by the b1g shiz-hole homer "officials" if you wish to call them that.

 

[Ranger Dan]

Please stop preaching.

I'll stop preaching, when the other posters stop making idiotic posts about unfair media attention or how people are out to get Penn State. For that matter, I'll also continue to call out posters who unfairly criticize CJF for not winning a national championship in his first two years.

No you aren't, I think Michael Scott did many times, so you're in good company.
I look forward to your future posts telling all Penn State fans how to feel about Penn State and all things college football.

I considered posting about how fair and balanced every single one of the broadcasts have been, but that felt rather awkward and passive aggressive.

 

[MtNittany]

ok...except Jim Delaney is on record as having "gone after" Penn State. To conclude that espn didn't "go after" Penn State requires a suspension of reality.

 

[JoeDidntKnow]

After how the B1G treated Joe and the ahia voters against the 1994 team I will NEVER cheer for these cheaters. NEVER. Success With Honor - always.

Exactly, what a pompous horse's @ss, no wonder he's a b1g Douche Delany fan. Anybody who can watch the 2005 play in the PSU-scUM game on the field, and then to have no Replay Review despite the standing Replay Review Rule in place at the time, and sit here and say that it was not intentionally blown is a disingenuous @sshole who will defend and all manner of unethical behavior out of this crap conference.

Good Lord you are pathetic. Your last 24 hours around here are rediculous even for a Jethro

How about not posting anything, ever consider that? Your OP was really lame and pointless. Scolding Penn State fans, really? Penn State fans have every right to be bitter with the Big ten, media, big ten refs and more.

 

[Pocono Lion]

Thank you Dan, well said. I may in the minority, but I am thoroughly enjoying watching Michigan kick Florida's ass. OSU, not quite so much. Like it or not, we'll be in the Big 10 East for a long time and with UM, MSU and OSU, the bar has been raised.

No doubt - who the F is this jackass to lecture all PSU fans as to how they are to behave to be considered good, b1g shiz-hole quality fans (ditto his jerkoff shiz-hole buddy, Westcock24). Pathetic loudmouths who have no business lecturing anybody.

I didn't lecture you. I called a spade a spade and thats you and how pathetic you are. Am I wrong?

 

[LaJolla Lion]

To be fair, this site encourages it and BODE just yells the loudest. Other sites would have banned him permanently by now as the rational fans would have shut him up.

I don't think I've been out of line. Sorry if I misunderstood your post but I'm wondering how Bushwood constantly thinks anything he says actually means something

 

[JeannieNeedsAShooter]

You mean the same universe that assumes a boy was raped in the PSU showers and Paterno et al. covered it up? The political correctness you consistently display is a huge problem with "the new Penn State"

Not half as pathetic as the b1g shiz-hole and its crass, hypocritical, excuse anything that benefits my school fans such as a loser like you.

I value your opinion Dan, but I do think there has been a media and BigTen anti-Penn State bias in the wake of Sandusky. I'm not suggesting people met in smoke filled rooms and set an agenda, but the actions of our BOT delivered a narrative which caused people, being human, to react in a certain way. For the most part, those reactions were contrary to the best interests of Penn State.

 

[Franklin_Restores_TheTradition]

I don't think I've been out of line. Sorry if I misunderstood your post but I'm wondering how Bushwood constantly hinks anything he says actually means something

Yea, just like you don't think the b1g shiz-hole intentionally threw the call in 2005 both on the field and then too not even review it in violation of the b1g shiz-hole Replay Review Procedure in place at the time - a call that cost PSU an undefeated season in 2005 and a place in the National Championship Bowl that year. Weird how that works, huh b1g shiz-hole lover?

Yea, I'm not half as brilliant as a hubris-filled b1g shiz-hole jack@ss such as yourself though Jethro.

Thanks so much for your advice. I'm certain that from this point on we, without exception, will be more circumspect and in the process become the type of people that are worthy of your admiration and utmost respect. So again, thank you so much for what is truly a gift for the new year. And I for one promise to make you proud.

Of course it doesn't. He's a joke.

I agree and I also think that prior to the Sandusky scandal there was still a bias against PSU by the teams in the Big that never wanted us there in the first place. Then throw in the fact that the whole conference is geared toward OSU and Michigan and things don't really bode well for Penn State. Again, not a conspiracy but a general attitude and bias against us.

While I agree with your opinion that Penn State got shafted bad and screwed out of an undefeated season, you keep saying it kept us out the NC game and it didn't. Even undefeated we would not have jumped Texas or USC and would not have played for the NC (and they certainly wouldn't have given us a share of the NC title).

You really think Dave "joebot" jones is fair and objective?

 

[Tweedbear]

All the complaints about blown calls etc are history. Hell our BB team gets more game changing bad calls than football ever did
Just another adversity to overcome.

Not Jim. Class of 1958, without PSU I would have probably been a millworker who drowned his dreams at the end of the shift.

The University gave me the education and opportunity to overachieve my abilities. I bleed BW.Have always supported the university as my way of saying thank you.
Season ticket holder from my freshman year (free)through this year. Step almost killed my loyalty. The unfairness of the Sandusky affair riled my feathers enough to make me overlook the lack of loyalty by the Ad.
