A rough one

It was yet another weekend of crushing defeats for the Rams, as the football team found yet another way to lose, while the Tim Miles' era got off to a rough start in Missoula.


Johnny Walker (Green Label, please) gave his all for the Rams, and they came up just short vs. New Mexico, for the second stragith year. I have never seen a football team be as adept at blowing close games at the end as CSU has for the last couple of years.


It is a talent that has bloomed from the 2003 CU-CSU game, and I have to find the coaching staff to blame, as the effort from the Rams players was spectacular for a team with nothing to play for.

I know that my tune on the Rams coaches has gotten progressively worse as the season has gone on, but will reiterate the fact that this squad needs wholesale changes, and Sonny better make them, or Pauly K should get someone who remembers what it is like to win in here to replace him.

Enough about our great effort. It has been there for much of the year, but our coaching staff is ruining it.

Compotent game management could have won about 4 more games this year, and I am sure a 5-5 record at this point would look a heck of a lot better than 1-9.

Any way you cut it, 16 losses out of the last 17 games better dictate some major changes, or I will be among the students pregaming and leaving Hughes at gametime to watch ABC's game of the week, rather than ruin my buzz.
