Show me 1 single example of this...
By piecing together the things I've heard you say, you're in your late 20s early 30s and you're on a message board constantly bitching and moaning about the coach of your favorite sports team.
Ah. That moron. Good luck. Better off putting him on ignore.Sorry I didn't copy the whole text. That was a portion of CM's post to me. I'm not sure if he is confusing me with someone else but he is going to have to look long and hard to find me bash the staff.

Are you that Kilroy guy people always talk about ? You are the definition of a know it all.Well, tell us all about your expert evaluations of games and your qualifications. If you don't know what your looking at and/or watching film of how they executed on every play and every responsibility, then your 'opinion' is worthless. But opinions actually are worthless by definition.
You've seen Stone play 2 qtrs. and were able to determine that he has 'way more natural ability'. LOL. You don't actually believe your own BS, do you? I watched Gervase live on 3 or 4 occasions when he was in HS and then watched 2 tapes of Stones highlights, and from my 30 yrs. of coaching at many levels, I can tell you that Stone has no more 'natural ability' and is a VERY undisciplined player at this point (as is evident by his 4 block in the back calls on special teams this year and his not taking proper drops in coverage). He has a lot of potential, but he is a LONG ways from challenging Snyder or Gervase for a starting position.
You are correct that Snyder may not start the first game next year because of his DUI and we don't know what his rehab schedule looks like at this time, but there are also questions about Hooker's 'status' right now. I'm not making any guarantees about anything. I'll leave that up to the people 'in the know'...the coaches and not some 'wannabe' on a fan site. Thanks.
LOL, from one moron to another...
Did you feel the need to defend him?
You are big in that....Heres the thing I'll wager I'm not the only one who thinks your a little hard/negative. But you are hardly the worst for sure...your buddy scout is horrendous and you can tell by the amount of guys who combat him. He is SUPER negative and crappy. So is your buddy stoops....and you have a"like" history of supporting the super negative guys, so by proxy you share their fate.
That's why I put him on "ignore". He doesn't know shit about football and when he's called out on it, he just makes shit up! Trust me, you're better off putting him on ignore.You will have to.pardon me for not accepting that limp wristed B.S.
See when someone goes so far as to call me "self absorbed" or says I'm "damn sad" or the worst of the worst on pace to be like muskie.... I tend to want more than a soft back peddle consisting of "your like them". For someone who prides themselves in backing people into a corner you sir have put yourself squarely in one. So, provide me a single example of when I have bashed the coaches? Hint: you can search my name in the search bar. I'll wait, you won't find squat. You were wrong, are you man enough to admit it?
There's a first time for everything.I stand corrected. Muskie is not CM. CM is atleast man enough to acknowledge being wrong. No harm not foul, merry christmas.
Sorry bro, but it's a lock!Hey scout. Dont think i have forgot about that bet.
Wow you are a stud....

GOOD!These two deeps tell me they are ON PAPER trying to reward the seniors.
I helped you out, pal. You had a couple words wrong. I fixed them for you - no charge. You are welcome.No it's not. I couched at a high level for over 25 yrs. I have great knowledge of Iowa's defensive scheme and used to pick Norm Parker's nose at camps for years. So I have delicious snacks, I'm not some fry cook who because he plays Madden and fantasy football he thinks he knows what's going on. Want to try me?
You've got to be one of the biggest imbeciles on the planet, for me to put you on ignore.
How can stone & hooker not be starting?

I get it, I see what your saying and quite frankly I too have been accused of similar at times. But here's where the rubber hits the highway... look around you, everybody that has a strong opinion about the coaches "sucking" also states their opinion like it's an authoritative fact. What really upsets people is it contradicts what they've said with an aggressive tone. He's not unusual and honestly I'm not screwing with you, but if you think he is...then you are clearly holding him to a different measurement than you are yourself and others.
I mean honestly what kind of person thinks all these critics were just politely saying OG "Kirk Ferentz sucks"...I mean they are saying this with anger and hostility and disdain and condescension...I mean come on let's be honest with ourselves here fellas.
If you've got a problem with Muskie or me, or, or, or anyone...Who argues with your petty bullshit. Then you better have a problem with yourselves.
Are you that Kilroy guy people always talk about ? You are the definition of a know it all.
I get what you're saying and you and I have had our differences of opinion, but I haven't noticed you using the same name-calling tactics or attacking everyone with a difference of opinion. You have strong opinions and, yeah, you have your perceptions of me, but I've never been offended by your opinions or felt disrespected by you. And, yeah, there are a lot of people on this board who argue insanely. I do at times just like most people here, though it's usually during the season and during or right after bad games.
And the "Kirk Ferentz sucks" crowd often chooses or refuses to back up their claims with any objectivity at all--but they've never directed their ire at me even though I'm more middle of the road, perhaps because I lean to expecting a bit more from Ferentz. I try to back that up with some evidence at least even if there are holes in my arguments (which you and others point out at times). But I see the coaching staff's improvement in recruiting the past three years and that makes me relax a bit. between 2013 and 2015, though, they were trending toward the end of Hayden Fry's time.
Anyway, Muskie ... I don't know, maybe he's having a bad month or something. I don't know why you compare yourself to him. You may have similar opinions, but you don't completely dismiss other analyses out of hand unless they are unfounded opinions. Muskie even provides some analysis with some of his opinions which give them more weight, but he can't help himself when it comes to taking a crap on anyone with different opinions. Like I said, maybe he's had a bad month or something. It happens. I haven't been aware of his posts for very long, but lately he's been over the top with attacks on others. That's the perception I have when I open threads and read ten posts and then see his and then the back and forth that pretty much derails whatever discussion was occurring.
I think this thread, well, it's most obvious that the point of contention is the Stone/Hooker versus Gervase/Snyder debate. Both sides have good arguments--or could have good arguments. I don't see it as clear-cut. Stone looks like he has all the tools, but he's played two quarters against a bad Nebraska team. Gervase has experience and has looked both good and bad at times. It'll work itself out. I'm not that invested in it at this point in the season. I'll get fired up about it next August.
As far as my "petty bullshit" ... whatever. I made three long posts about recruiting recently and thought, "Hey, this is a departure from pointless opinionated arguments. Let's look at the data and maybe different people will interpret the rankings differently." It was an attempt, at least. Somehow that's condescending to you. Just because I put out an analysis or opinion, doesn't mean I believe with certainty that I'm right. Prove me wrong, but you can do it without accusing me of pettiness or whatever. I've admitted to others on the board when arguing about something that I hadn't thought of what they were saying and changed my mind and let them know that. But I'm not going to just change my mind about something I've thought about seriously just because someone says I'm a moron or because I'm petty or whatever.
Not sure what happened on this thread but here is my opinion. I have never understood how anybody can claim to be an Iowa football fan and hate Hayden Fry or Kirk Ferentz............Fry and Ferentz is Hawkeye football and I am not sure that can even be debated
This is a very poignant, sincere post. I get it, you make valid arguments, they are heartfelt and I appreciate you taking the time to lay it out like this.
Merry Christmas!!!
When you start seeing rsso or rsfr and 3* with height and weight listed, you will know herby/kilroy/bobtarn/gilligan/bugs/nitewing is back.
It's all fun in games with Kilroy until he tries to meet up with another poster to fight LMAO!Forgot 40 times!
Taylor had a knee brace on at graduation and could hardly walk per Twitterverse..Hooker to start, taylor not at practice.
