Quit while you're behind, before he gives you another brutal taste of the long knuckle.

Avery can't deal with me...never could?? NO one on this board ever used hyperbole. You knew darn well what I was talking about in that game.

Seems to me it was a clock malfunction.





Too bad State Penns offense couldn't make up for that obvious fix.

It wasn't a fix...the offense did score a touchdown in the last minute that game to take the lead. The defense didn't stop Michigan on the last drive.

I have lost once again. Penn State has 2 big 10 titles...that's it. Michigan has dominated them without question...even one of their great big 10 years (2005) ...they still lost to Michigan in the final seconds. They have been nowhere as good as Ohio State since joining the big 10.

Can the two of you at least grant me that Penn State had a great team in 1994?? Is that too much to ask?? Is it possible that they had a good offense in 2005 under Robinson?? Joe Paterno has been a great coach...of that I am certain.

You seem to be making progress.

Yes, they were good in 1994.

Their offense was OK in 2005, but I hardly think that's evidence that Pryor should go there to be coached by offensive innovators Joe Paterno and Galen Hall for the next four years.

And I agree with Joe Paterno has been.

Yes, I knew what you were talking about because StatePenn fans always resort to the referees are against us conspiracy theory to explain away any loss.

You blamed the loss on a "clock malfunction," which seems an awful lot like hyperbole to me, considering that the second that Michigan used to run the last play to beat StatePenn for the 7th consecutive time could have just as easily been the one that their ancient head coach had added, as the one that Lloyd Carr argued for.

Yes, it was absolutely hyperbole. It was simply a weak argument by me to insinuate to Avery that they possibly could have gone undefeated in 2005. I succomb to that because all his arguments are filled with weakness. AS I stated, they lost because they didn't stop Manningham with 1 second left. They stop that play they go undefeated. their ancient head coach is great...period. AVery likes to debate me which is fine. I made a harmless comment about Pryor picking the wrong team and AVery goes off. He loves it. I play with him and he plays with me. That's it.
