Ok, your point is you think Stanford stinks. Just say that instead of some BS about how another team plays against a common opponent.

The slippage of standards for Stanford football is leading to loss of competitiveness. The defensiveness to a very short post simply pointing out how uncompetitive Stanford was vs. UCF, and how I’d like to see Stanford play defense like an AAC team, says a lot. But if fans think of Stanford Football as incapable of being better than recent trends, then there is no reason to expect more.
Now I’ll be sarcastic. Nothing ensures future championships like lowering the bar on acceptable performance.

So what do you think outsider that because you make these comments Stanford’s athletic director brass etc. is looking at it and saying oh my gosh these fans are right we better damn well do something. Frankly I don’t think they pay much attention to a bunch of guys sitting on their ass posting on message boards. I sure as hell hope they don’t.
