Let us not forget a defense which lost 8, arguably 9, starters, and still managed to be one of the best in the country. Now, here's the bad news, Bat Fans, the lions share of that side of the ball is coming back.

Ok, well let me make some things clear. First, I was agreeing with you that it is ok that a few people are not going to enjoying sitting through the game given the particular circumstances. Second, i was disagreeing with McAfee because I think he is an arrogant asshole who doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. Our fan base puts any other team in the conference to shame. There is a reason that the game that night didn't matter to much. The Car Care bowl needed a team that would fill their stadium, in the big east there is no better team for that than WVU. So if McAfee thinks that our fans are such "fair weather" fans I suggest he go somewhere like Maryland where I attended originally and can tell you that is a perfect example of "fair weather" fans. You think our fans left? There it doesn't matter what the score is win, lose, one touchdown, 3 point differences, conference on the line, doesn't matter i promise after halftime only 60 percent will remain.

Third, I have never liked McAfee because of few things. First, I as well as several other friend have met him and can tell you he is an ARROGANT ASSHOLE. I have never met a goddamn kicker who thought he was such a god everywhere he went. Let me say that i have met Slaton and White and NOT at a signing event or meet event but actually just out and met them and i will tell you those two were not so high and mighty. So that is why i don't like him. I have heard some very uncomforting things as well from VERY reliable sources about some of the things he did to his GF while at WVU.

So... he's calling out multiple fans (that is, fans plural)? And he's characterizing that they're not very good fans? You're saying that they're nincompoops. I'm using his characterization in a headline. It's not a quote. He is saying that multiple people who attend games at West Virginia are not very good fans. I'm characterizing that as some WVU fans suck.

I'm sorry you don't get that.

"Professionals do not need to twist words or insert their own words and then try to pass them off as fact in order to get a little more traffic.

And K-Hue's not a professional...

Just some guy on the interweb's posting his opinion...

"I could give 2 shits in a gator bowl..."

"You keep bringing up posts that I may have made...

"May have made?" LMAO...Rich, Diggs, real rich...

"...but you want to pretend like the "WVU Fan takes a crap in Gator Bowl seat" thread is ancient history and it should be forgotten about?"

I never said anything about "should be forgotten about"...

You might want to re-read the comments here and maybe take some notes so you can keep track of who has said what to you since your comprehension level seems to not be so high...

Ummm...

No...

The article was "removed" and replaced with an explanation as to why, Diggs...

I suggest you check here...

Shiguy, you surprise me a little here. Besides you, Diggs, myself, and the occasional visit from another, hither and yon, how many WVU fans do you typically see on this blog? How many blogs do you frequent, and how many WVU fans do you see there? I frequent a WVU football blog, and at its peak, there are never more than 6 of us who are steady customers.

Consider what WVU football has accomplished since the 2nd year Rich Rodriguez was HC? While WVU fans have sold their ticket alotments and helped to sell out each bowl game they've attended since, you're only talking 1 game/year, and you're only talking 15K-20K fans/game. You can't use one game as a measure of fan support throughout a season. AND, while I too don't particularly enjoy sitting in 20 degree weather, I supose it's OK for the team to play in it, but I don't have to stay and watch em play.

I've never met Pat McAfee. I don't know what he's like as a human being. I can only tell you that he's arguably the best punter/place-kicker/FG kicker package WVU has ever had. Yes, he's made some long FG's and missed some short ones. It doesn't change what he's accomplished in his career. AND, if people threatened my life and damaged my property, just because I personnally had a bad game, when there were 40 more team-mates involved with the same game at one time or another, I'd be rather bitter as well.

Here's a little more proof for the pudding. Let's not forget that after WVU's loss at CO, people began calling for Bill Stewart's job, and some still are. We've said it before in other threads; there's no accounting for idiots, and WVU fans have their share of em.

Whether or not it's a fair assessment of WVU's fan base, rightly or wrongly, I can't blame McAfee for saying what he said.

Hudginsd02, let's not forget what some of them did to his car.

I personally appreciate what you've had to say about Coach Stew. It's high time more WVU fans stood up for the man.

Excuse me, World?

Do you think I'm a "master baiter and a troll"?

What is not true, Diggs? What? Is the quote inaccurate? No - not in the least. The dude called out your fans. If you want to mince words and say he only called out the bad fans... great, whatever helps you sleep better.

I wish for your sake that you actually remembered what the original post looked like. It contained photos and a detailed account.. both of which turned out to be untrue and were removed. All of the original content was removed and replaced with the explanation. I don't know what more you want, but... two years later... you're still stuck on it. Sorry, dude.

Suggestion - just stop. You're making yourself look like a small, petty man who attempting to mince words (badly) to make a (failed) point.

Most people around here remember you as a decent commenter who makes sense. Don't ruin it.

Or do. I could care less either way.

Get over what Tomcat? Is asking Kevin to post facts instead of fiction too much to ASK? I could give 2 shits in a gator bowl less about whether we have a thread posted about us that's good or bad. As long as it's FACT. Forrest Gump knew that thread Kev made about a Fan taking a crap was fake, Kevin Donahue DID NOT.....He even defended it being legit for like 4 days and didn't even remove it once he finally figured it out. He just locked it.

Hey Diggs yall won your bowl- so a kicker mouthed off
get over it, its all good-you ,Zac Shiguy and others at least got a thread about WV
BTW Do yall burn couches after losses or victories?

Re: WVU player: Mountaineer fans suck

Diggs_the_Mountie — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 22:39:29 -0000

He wasn't calling out the entire Fan Base Kev, he was calling out a few nincompoops that were responsible for the atrocious comments and actions towards him a year ago. When he was talking about Senior night, well who doesn't have some Fans that leave at halftime or just generally leave when the windchill fact is in the teens?

It's not even about those things at all. To me it's your word choice which gives the "guy who's just dropping in to read headlines" the wrong impression. You of all people should know better than this......Professionals do not need to twist words or insert their own words and then try to pass them off as fact in order to get a little more traffic. You can flame WVU to your hearts disire Kev, just don't make shit up.

Re: WVU player: Mountaineer fans suck

Diggs_the_Mountie — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 22:14:09 -0000

So let me get this straight hippy.....You keep bringing up posts that I may have made which are at least 3 years old now but you want to pretend like the "WVU Fan takes a crap in Gator Bowl seat" thread is ancient history and it should be forgotten about? Wow, talk about hypocrisy at its finest. No insults were dished out hippy, only calling it like I see it. You're a master baiter and a troll. You know it, hell the world knows it. Just ask them.

Re: WVU player: Mountaineer fans suck

Diggs_the_Mountie — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 22:09:42 -0000

No, it wasn't pulled gatorhippy. It was only locked. It remained there until newer topics pushed it away. Thanks for playing.

Re: WVU player: Mountaineer fans suck

Diggs_the_Mountie — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 22:05:58 -0000

I could care less about what you post that praises WVU Kevin. It's not about whether I think we're getting praise on your site. It's about at least 2 topics that you've posted here that wasn't true.

In regards to your asking why I don't send you something to post about.....Well I have, I sent you a story regarding the LSU/WVU series (in the works) probably like 2 months ago. Even linked it for you but it was never posted here. Maybe it was too hard for you to figure out?
