Reverend Dabo Swinney (HC Clemson Tigers - GSCS), random mid-century cars, and steroids

You've never been to Central Ohio in August or Early September have you?
I was gonna say something similar. People in the south seem to think it's barely above freezing, or colder, up here all year round. I would believe South Carolina has more hot and humid days per year than we do here in Columbus, but heat and humidity are certainly not unheard of here. But, I didn't say anything because weather debates are dumb. :wink:

First of all -hell no! You guys would kill us in the cold! But if you came down to play us in August or first of Sept, your guys would die from cramping and heat exhaustion so its all relative in the end.

These Texas boys are only think they know what hot is. ATM came to death valley in August a couple of yrs ago saying they had been practicing in 110 degree Temps and the heat and humidity here would be nothing to them but after the first qtr they had half their team cramping and puking

I think I might have some insight into this unique comparison given that I grew up in NE Alabama, visited clemson more times than I can count, lived in Columbus for 6+ years and have lived in Texas for quiet some time...


1) never, eva eva eva, assume Aggy is a well run/conditioned program.
2) On any given day Columbus can be as hot/humid as Clemson
3) On average Columbus doesn’t hold a candle
4) I’d be stunned .... stunned if under our current S&C coach we had the issues as aggy.
5) I believe yall played Aggy at nightish .... Aggy played during the middle of the day there. worlds of different... 100+ degree heat you’re getting cooked from the inside and you dont even realize it. At least with the humidity there is a sign...

Congrats, Dabo, you've got some notoriety on Deadspin.

Idiot of the Year #6: Dabo Swinney, brainless molder of young minds
Deadspin Staff

Think of all the stupid things college football coaches have said this year. We know, it’s a lot. Then imagine how much stupid one has to put out into the world to be the stupidest college football coach in any given year.

America, we present to you Clemson head football coach Dabo Swinney, without a doubt the biggest idiot in college football this year.

There have been a lot of people in this country who don’t really “get” the COVID pandemic, how virulent it is, how serious it is. But perhaps no one got it less in 2020 than Dabo.

Given, this is the same Dabo who said he’ll quit coaching if players ever get paid (Hey Dabo, you’re currently two years into your 10-year, $93 million deal, I bet you won’t), so we’re not looking to the Clemson sidelines for good takes on anything. That said, you’d still like to see the highest paid employee in the state of South Carolina with a better grasp on a pandemic that has killed more than 336,000 Americans to date, especially when said employee is in charge of the well-being of dozens of young men.

But if you were looking to Swinney for a responsible take on COVID, you don’t know Dabo! We should have seen it coming back in April, when Dabo suggested that America could America the virus right back to where it came from:

“This is America, man. We’ve stormed the beaches of Normandy. We’ve sent a rover out on Mars and walked on the moon. This is the greatest country. We’ve created an iPhone where I can sit here and talk to people in all these different places. We’ve got the smartest people in the world. We’re going to rise up and kick this thing in the teeth and get back to our lives.”

But Dabo’s 2020 coup de grace was complaining that Florida State backed out of a game against Clemson, after the Tigers let a symptomatic player practice all week, only pulling him once he tested positive for COVID. Not only did Swinney demand FSU forfeit the game and give Clemson the win, he doubled down on it repeatedly, suggesting that not wanting to subject young men to a virus that may or may not cause lasting heart damage was a sign of weakness in FSU’s game plan. Or something.

Cont'd ...

The writer forgot about his initial take on COVID and the B1G schedule only to reverse course once the Buckeyes made it to 5-0 and TTUN bitched out.
Also his old takes related to Black Lives Matter that originally were given in relation to NFL national anthem kneeling and popped back up again during the protests this summer.

The Reverend Dabo giving his daily "sermon", and I'm praying Sermon runs for 300+ yards on him tomorrow.
