Hey there freak...Where did I say ANYTHING about Mason being fired in that post??????
Oh...that's right...I didn't...did I freak?
I mentioned the 3 coaches other than Warmath that DID manage to beat Michigan...Stoll, Gutey and Mason. I DID state that it is high time that some of the wishy-washey types who pi$$ and moan and cry about that 2003 loss reflect a bit on the fact that just maybe it IS far better to lose a game to Michigan after having had the lead most of the game than it is to lose by 49-7 head-bashing type scores the way so many of our coaches just about always seemed to do for so many decades.
YOU are the one who talked about Mason being fired and then you TRIED to blame me for it freak...what's YOUR deal with THAT????????? I do agree with you that eg9 was out to lunch with his tangent.
My whole point was the fact that I believe it was MUCH better to play Michigan even and lose at the end, OR as Stoll, Gutey and Mason did...to beat Michigan and also believe that even losing the way our team lost in 2003 was FAR more honorable than all of those 49-7 type head bashings that Michigan put on Golden Gopher Football Teams so often for so long.
And yet,some of our fans call that their worst Gopher memory. I say "...b.s..." to that noise. Those 49-7 and 55-0 type head bashings the Gophers have taken over the years are my worst memories. To those who waste time whining about the 2003 Michigan game, I say: "...you people deserve to walk in the wilderness for the rest of the days you follow Gopher Football..." I'm proud of that Stoll win...that Gutey win and that Mason win. I'm also damn proud of that 3 year stretch in 2003, 2004 and 2005 when the Gophers were right there with Michigan...even though two of the 3 games were heartbreaking losses to go along with that 2005 win.
I will never understand a lot of the Gopher Fans who apparently would rather lose 49-7 to Michigan than to have battled the cornblues the way that 2003 team did. To me there was MUCH MORE honor in that game than there was in all those 49-7 head bashings that Michigan has inflicted upon my Gophers during the past half century.
