Optimism or Insanity????
Ok here it is 5 days removed from the GT collapse,2 days from my angry ranting about the team and coaches performance Saturday and here I am feeling that old familiar feeling that only a true canes fan feels.....Optimism!!! That feeling that won't allow me to stay angry or miss a game,that feeling that kept me in my seat for every second of the GT,Louisville and Peach Bowl losses,that feeling that keeps me excited about a showdown with VT that on the surface means nothing.What is it about Hurricane fans that allows us to be defiant when we're playing terrible???What is it that allows us to talk trash when our team doesn't back it up???What is that keeps me from joining the bandwagon of fair weather fans who jumped ship a long time ago??? Is it ignorance??Insanity,or is it the fact that I have seen the Canes at their lowest and they always scratch and claw their way back to the top eventually??Maybe the never die mentality of this program has over the years rubbed off on me as a fan.Maybe seeing the canes rise from the ashes in the late 90's inspires me to hope!!Maybe as Canes fans we have seen the U overcome all odds in the past keeps us coming back!!For me I find myself every week believing that this is our week to start the long climb back to the top.This Saturday is no exception!!To begin with I personally hate VT almost as much as FS...who,i'm tired of hearing about Beamer Ball and the "suddenly resurgent" Hokies,what a joke!!I'm tired of hearing that we are staring down the barrel of 3 more losses and I'm really tired of being trashed by EVERYONE in America.WE NEED THIS WIN!!!No not the team,the fans.Cane Nation needs this win!We need to crush the Chokies Saturday!The fans aren't asking for a National Title or an ACC title right now we just want an inspired effort..GO Canes!!!
