THE ONE-FINGER SALUTE

Thumbs up to the Fresno State football team for eking out a victory against the Rockets from the University of Toledo. The game was too close for our tastes, but sometimes a win is a win. This week is going to have to be one of those weeks. We̢۪re just glad the ̢۪Dogs didn̢۪t drop out of the top 25.

Thumbs up to healthy snacking. Occasionally in the office, we don̢۪t always get the time or opportunity to eat something that didn̢۪t come out of a deep fryer, but we̢۪re deeply thankful for the times that we do, and the people who remember to bring in a bag of baby carrots.

Thumbs down to midterms. Are you serious? Already?

    I have been watching the games Joe, but you obviously have not…you are just looking at the scores, or else you would see the crappy coaching that is going on and the sloppy mistakes that you would recognize in youth games but should not see in College level sports. The team can’t even do simple fundamental skills like proper tackling, these one arm slap attempts are what costs us not only yards but touch downs. And like you said “Wisconsin didn’t beat us we lost the game”…Key words didn’t beat us we lost, so that must mean we beat ourselves on our lousy job with the numerous mistakes. I mean you obviously can count cause your focusing on the scores, but the next game you watch count how many ridiculous mistakes Fresno State makes and if it is hard for you to tell what are mistakes, just look how pissed actual fans get during a a given play!!

    Yes thumbs up, or have you been watching the games. We almost be the, at the time number 10 ranked team in the country. Its not like Wisconsin beat us, we lost the game to them and we are still ranked. Sure we had trouble against Toledo, but we could have lost that game and we didn’t. Have some pride in your school Jamie.
