I am not going to attempt to get on your board and go on some detailed break down analysis of the game. If you did that to me after this game, my thoughts would be "Yeah, I watched/listened to the game dumb ass...I am well aware of what SIU did wrong and what UNI did wrong! Now go away!" I will say a few things:
One, I was unable to get on this week prior to the game as I usually do each year. I regret that. I always enjoy the good jabs and low blows UNI fans can throw in some fun trash talk.
Two, I hope for those of you that made the trip, you at least enjoyed the fact that you watched a football game in Carbondale for once without thinking "Is this damn place gonna fall down before the game is over?"
Third...I am not sure about you, but I hope every SIU vs UNI Football game I watch from now until I die is just like that one! As an SIU fan, I will be on the losing end of many of those games. However, if the SIU/UNI football rivalry continues, and the games are like they have been for the past several years, I will enjoy them win or lose. I hope you feel the same (after you cuss, scream, throw things, etc....trust me...I am ok with a tough loss...but it takes me an hour or so to be ok with it. I understand) If your head is hanging, I hope it is only because you started drinking at 9 am and you are close to passing out. Otherwise, what the hell are you hanging your head for? I hope not because your football team traveled to SIU and played in a facility they have never played in, and damn near came home with a win. I realize sometimes it is better to get your ass kicked than to lose one like that. But I hope by the time your Panthers arrive home you have your head back up, and will tell them how proud you are of the game they played and get them built up for next week.
Hopefully next year I will get on the week prior and let all of you throw your ever so creative jabs
Until then panther fans....Cheers and God Bless!
