Some of you may recall a post I made after Christmas regarding and old shotgun, a gift from my mom and dad when I was 14 years old. My brother, with all good intentions was going to refinish it for me probably over 30 years ago but after taking it apart and stripping the finish off, put it down and never finished it.

Back over the summer while cleaning my dad's house out, we came across it. It was missing a bunch of mostly small parts. I didn't realize it at the time but my son got it and made it new again and gave ot to me for Christmas. It really touched my heart for many reasons.

Well, the reason I bring it back up is that when going through some old pictures we came across this picture taken a Christmas when I got the 16 Guage. I was 14 at the time.

I doubt he gives a s*** about his wife or her feelings. How do I know? Because he is going to do the same thing this year. And next year. And the year after that.

Lol. Also have to say is a douche move to share that text with anyone! Only 2 people needed to know it existed if it was from the heart.

And I also can't get upset because a coach voted us 6th, 7th, or 8th. Seriously people. Do we really have to get bent out of shape just because we don't agree with these guys?
It's not a conspiracy. It's not hate. It's not disrespect. It's just a difference of opinion.

When you look at who voted how and why, it doesn’t take imagination to see why they had a difference of opinion. I would have voted us ahead of AL, Michigan and TCU.

A few headscratchers from some coaches polls
Sonny Cumbie, LA Tech - 7th (he also moved Bama to 3rd)
Kalen DeBoer, Washington - 7th (he put HIS team 6th)
Dave Doeren, NC State - 8th (moved Penn State & Kansas State ahead of us)
Mike Elko, Duke - 7th (Penn State jumps us, but he put Bama ahead of Ohio State)
Danny Gonzales, New Mexico - 7th (Penn State again wtf?)
Butch Jones, Ark State - 7th (Penn State)
Lance Leipold, Kansas - 7th (he put Penn State 5th!)
Tim Lester, Western Michigan - 7th
Mike Locksley, Maryland - 7th
Joe Moorhead, Akron - 7th (lol didn't like that ass whooping his dirty team took)
Greg Schiano, Rutgers - 7th (of course)
Ken Wilson, Nevada - 8th (wth is he smoking? moved Washington & Penn State up)

Washington finished 11-2, but didn't play in conference title game and lost 2 to unranked teams. Their best win was beating Oregon by 3, they won their bowl game against Texas.
Penn State finished 11-2, didn't play in conference title game lost to the only ranked teams they faced and beat Utah in the bowl game (who lost their starting QB in the first half)
Doeren must have picked the wrong purple team though, Kansas State went 10-4 and lost by 25 to Bama in the bowl game.

A few giving more respect to us
Pat Narduzzi, Pittsburgh - had us 4th, I like this guy...respect given
Kirby Smart puts us 5th ahead of Bama

Cronyism. Should eliminate people biased polls entirely. Makes no sense to have them anymore.
