It Didn't Mean Much, But Damn It felt Good!!
Ok, I'll be the first to admit that Saturdays Miami vs FSU showdown didn't mean much in the grand scheme of things!! I mean neither team was ranked, both teams are all but eliminated from the ACC title race and both teams are flirting with the possibility of no post season, but as I watched this game the true Hurricane fan broke through my frustration and discouragement!! Let's be honest, the game was injury, penalty and turnover plagued. Neither defense looked great and at times we looked like we couldn't stop their offense. It was ugly, but beautiful at the same time. Let's talk about Kirby Freeman; I am the first to bash him and tell him how aweful he is, even yesterday I prayed for Kyle Wright to return, but for one drive, on one day Kirby looked like Bernie Kosar, Jim Kelly and Ken Dorsey all put together. To cap off a legendary drive, Kirby maned up and took a punishing hit, while delivering a perfect TD strike,which would become the game winner. No Kirby is not ready to lead this team, but at least for today, he is a hero in my book!! Maybe it won't get us ranked or even get us media respect, but any true Cane fan has got to be proud of this team for surviving a gut check and coming out on top. As for the rest of the season, I think 7-5 is a reasonable goal, and 8-4 is a big time stretch, but at least for now, I'm proud to support this team and proud to call myself a fan!! Hey maybe it didn't mean much to everyone else, but for a Hurricane fan who is desperate for something good to happen, it felt damn good...CANE-4-LIFE!!!
