CNY residents: the 87 Syracuse team

[Rack Fu]

All I remember is that pussy coach for Auburn (Pat Dye) calling for the Tigers to kick a field goal to tie the game with a second left instead of going for the win.

Dick McPherson was the pussy who refused the home-and-home contract that Dye offered after the game.

What the hell does that have to do with the Sugar Bowl game that ended in a tie? Try and keep up, sport. Dye is a pussy. You go for the win in that situation since OT wasn't an option back then. He was also a rules violatin' SOB too, right?

Coupla points.

First, not only was Syracuse not in the Big East for football, the Big East didn't even play football back then. For that matter, Penn State wasn't yet in the Big Ten either, as they were still playing an independent schedule made up mostly of teams from the northeast.

Zysdale note: I kinda sorta knew two guys from that team.

Played high school football against Pat Kelly. Pat was an all-everything QB in high school who wound up at Syracuse. He was big for a QB, and not a real good fit for MacPherson's offense as a QB, so he wound up at TE. He played in the NFL for the Broncos, and was on his way to making some noise when he tore up his knee pretty badly in the '89 AFC championship game. He came back but was never the same player afterward. After he retired from football, he worked in NYC. Pat wound up with cancer and died young, I believe he was only 37 or 38. Among the mourners at his funeral was one Monica Lewinsky, whom he apparently had befriended when they worked together in NYC.

As a kid I went to summer recreation programs with Tim Vesling, who was the kicker on that Syracuse team. Not surprisingly, Tim was primarily a soccer player as a kid.

The home-and-home was to "settle the score", so it had EVERYTHING to do with that Sugar Bowl, for which 'Cuse fans to this day still have the rag on.

McPherson was also a pussy for running off the field without shaking Dye's rules violatin' SOB hand.

A home and home series years after that Sugar Bowl game has NOTHING to do with that game. You're more dense than a black hole.

[Carson]

Dumb Fu,

Dye's offer was right after the Sugar Bowl and Dick the Dick refused that one.
Dye was long gone by the time AU and SU played each other again. Tuberville was AU coach in 2001-2002, remember?

A chance to play a sniveling pussy of a coach two more times? Gee, how in the world could Syracuse have passed that up?

Maybe Dye should have made that offer before he proved to the other coach he had no ballsack. Ya think?

I pointed out the part of your own post that you do not seem to be able to grasp despite you having typed it three times already.

The game was fucking over, idiot. Once again, what did Dye's offer AFTER the game have to do with his pussy call during the game that had just ended? It's not rocket science.

[Carson]

Dye is called out by SU for the tie.
Dye admits after the game that his decision was based on not losing the game, then responds with a contract offer in response to the allegation.
SU declines offer.

Dye is the pussy? Are all the other coaches who ever played to ties also pussies? Is Dye not a pussy If he offers the contract before the Sugar Bowl?

I am having trouble understanding your values, but you've declared me an idiot so I guess that's a fact, too.

The second half of your sentence answers the first half.

For what it's worth... you more than declared yourself an idiot with your replies in this thread. I was just stating the obvious.

[Carson]

You must be a woman.

[Van]

Dye is the pussy?

Absolutely.

Are all the other coaches who ever played to ties also pussies?

Yes. Especially those who did it in bowl games.

The only time playing for a tie is acceptable is when gaining a tie will secure a conference championship. Doing so in a bowl game is the height of pussy-dom.

Tom Osborne farts in Pat Dye's general direction.
