John Feinstein is an idiot.

Post by CameronBornAndBred » October 6th, 2010, 11:56 am

I hate when people continue to assume that Duke football is just being "Duke football" again. Everyone knew that this would be a rebuilding year, we don't have the experience that last years squad of seniors was able to use to be as successful. But we are showing improvements, and while we still (thankfully) have many games left year, next year we are going to be a team to be reckoned with.

The defense is improving week to week evidenced by total yards and points yielded trending down the last two weeks. Duke can and will win in the ACC. After years of ineptitude, the only way to shut up Feinstein and his ilk is by winning. We will win in a couple more years. Everyone must keep the faith.

Surely you aren't just figuring this out now, are you? ;)

I was thinking what DinK said when I saw this title.

Of course this is the same guy who got suspended from his Navy football gig for cursing on-air in frustration when Navy lost to his alma mater. It's a pity he's such an asshole; some of his books are interesting.

Agreed with both of the above.

I haven't made it through one of his books yet. His poor grammar and sentence structure drives me nuts. I sometimes wonder how he got through Duke, bless his heart. /:)

Maybe a little off topic, but I hope my scatterbrained scratchings reach the seal of approval from Ima. :happy-bouncyblue: I sometimes wonder how I continue to find my way home, day after day. :twitch: Bless my pea-pickin' heart!
Meanwhile, Feinstein has the great ability to sound facetious at the drop of a vowel. If he thinks such a proposal as the 'SAT' league could work, he could really find some foolish enough folks to join his parade. I'd bet it would be very prosperous. 8-| What a blowhard! :o)

He has a very cute brother. :ymblushing:

He doesn't get points for that :naughty:

PS I tried reading one of his books once. His writing ability is on about an eighth grade level, bless his heart.

I still think his brother is (was back in the day) cute. :ymblushing:
