…that usually means eating all the ice cream you want, not feeling obligated to put your dentures in every day, and going back to smoking unfiltered cigs. It doesn’t mean taking a victory lap and throwing your (ugly, signed!) hat into the stands while the game isn’t even over…when I saw that happen I had an earnest wish that we would miraculously screw up his fairy tale ending. Alas, it was not to be.

Charley, let’s not forget that the people showering him with love were the same people behind forcing him out.

One more thing that I have neglected to mention before: I am so glad that we don’t have any cheers where words are spelled. Lame, generally speaking, and more specifically, probably a good indicator that there are plenty of remedial major patterns to be had!

It’s nice to know time off hasn’t affected you.

His end of game antics lacked the class that he was supposed to personify. He is now in Bobby Knight category in my book. He does not practice what he preaches.

I dont know, I was at the game and when he did what he did we seemed to have thrown in the towel anyway…by abandoning the running game in the second half and only giving Devine 5 touches. I was more pissed about that.

Bowden is cool.

to kinda disagree with Dr. Charley. I was there also, and as far as I could tell Bowden didn’t start celebrating until FSU went 12 points ahead with two minutes to go. Yes, we had the ball, but no real chance of winning given the way we’d played most of the second half.

So, after his pretty amazing 34 year run at FSU I didn’t begrudge the old man a chance to crow one last time. I remember when he used to do that on our sideline at Old Mountaineer Field.

We were only down to scores, with the ball and two minutes left. Most coaches would be coaching down to the wire, scares of the small chance of a comeback. Buy it was like he knew we were done. I was thinking at the time how strange it was that while the game wasn’t over bowden didn’t think we had any chance. I found it strange. But wvu didn’t do anything to prove him wrong.

I’m of the opinion that if you don’t want them celebrating, don’t let them beat you. Except mick Cronin. I hope he gets tetnis from a rusty trombone.

…I’m of the opinion that if you don’t want them celebrating, don’t let them beat you. Can’t add anything to that.

I think you have it backwards. Had our crazy fan-base not burned Bowden if effigy after a 9-3 Peach Bowl season, FSU wouldn’t have had a team….and, by the way, Jimbo Fisher is from West Virginia.

Bobby is a good football coach.

On a personal level he’s a lying, cheating, criminal recruiting boob who looks the other way as his players do everything short of murder. As hard as ESPN and the FSU fanbase attempts to sweep it all under the rug, Bobby’s legacy will be the fact that he DESERVED to have wins taken away from him.
