Let’s make a deal. I’ll stop writing about the brawl when ESPN decided to shut their purty little mouth up about it as well. Just when I think they’ve finally let it go, more ‘writers’ chime in yesterday. I also saw ‘the brawl’ as their teaser ad earlier in the day when promoting last night’s SportsCenter.
Anything for ratings, I guess… you hypocritical media whores.
Tonight’s installment of “Beating a Dead Horse” will focus on the hate mail I’ve received from college football ‘fans’ who are aghast that Miami would ‘celebrate’ such an ugly moment in NCAA history.
Again, for those who actually WATCHED the game (as opposed to the hacked loop which continues to run on ESPN) you know that’s not the case.
Three screen shots from the brawl are all you need to explain what really happened.
As soon as order was restored, Miami coaches had their team take a knee and delivered the same message they had all day; don’t get baited into anymore crap. The Canes endured the taunting during warm ups and cheap shots in the first half. Once the holder was bodyslammed, things boiled over.
Miami coaches preached to their kids that there was almost half a football game left. Keep your cool.
At this point it was only, 14-0. and 9:00 remained in the third quarter. There was still a lot of football left to be played.
These Canes heeded Meriweather’s advice, stood up and came together – as they do before every game.
The anti-Hurricanes contingent needs to check some game footage. This is nothing new and it certainly isn’t an act of ‘celebration’. It is a fired up team who has just under two quarters of football left to play. A team who has taken a lot of s**t this year – be it from the media, opposing fans and even their OWN fan base.
Enough was enough. It was time to get out there and play ball.
Do I expect the critics to buy this explanation? Hardly. Do I care? Less than you know.
I know what I saw and I know Hurricane Nation saw the same thing. We’re the only ones who actually WATCHED the whole game or attended in person. Our ‘facts’ aren’t based on some hacked and biased ESPN footage.
Watch the clip again, haters. See for yourself.
