ok, regardless, clemson has 5 national titles, not 3 as you posted.

for baseball, per Wiki,

as of the end of the 2015 regular season series, Clemson leads the all-time series 172-135-2 against SC.

That is what the NCAA and ACC both say. Seems you would pay attention more.

Take it up with them, not me, but until they say 5 you do not have 5.

i'll be fine if CU never wins another natty. this year's natty was the best natty of all time. best redemption sports story of all time. best finish of all time. etc and so many of CU's games this year were instant classics.

i won't be surprised if there is a movie about Clemson's 2016 natty season. i'd watch it. every good movie needs a hero and a villainn and bama is the perfect villain.

it is pretty incredible lil ol Clemson has won two natties in football.

i was thinking next year would be a rebuilding year but given all the qbs and talent on offense other acc teams are losing, CU could very well win the ACC again and be back in playoffs. lol

I dunno, Scrooster chummed the water for me, but look at all the Tiger Bait I hooked in this thread.

For not really trying I have hooked all kinds of Taters and Tater wannabes.

Yes you did. You also made yourself look like a complete fool. I was beginning to think I was wrong about you and you're actually just a big sports fan.

Wrong. You and Rooster are the two biggest clowns on this site, and that is saying something. Every time you grab that SEC flag, I cringe for you. It's sad. Notice you're the only one doing it? If you don't have a dog in it, sit your arse on the porch. At least the USCe fans know to shut the hell up about bragging on WBB. Good God. And football championships don't matter? All I need to hear from you to know you're not a fan of sport. You are the epitome of a waterboy. Hanging out in the locker room, grinning your arse off with the cool guys.

You're one of those people who cheer for UK basketball, Bama football (I forgot that's not a real sport for you), and all the great WBB teams. Whatever they are.

Here's what matters - that dubmass Rooster came on here crowing about what an idiot his coach is, and posted some incoherent drivel about sheep. Fine; par for the course with him. Everyone has fun, blah blah blah, and then some clown decides to make it a WBB thread, and a football doesn't matter thread, and USCe and LSU and SEC are great thread.

Clemson beat the absolute shite out of USCe a couple of months ago, and then won it all a couple of weeks ago. USCe fans are going to cry about it all summer, and that's fantastic. If they weren't mad about it, they would be fake-arse fans like you. Or SEC fans.

But I agree; Clemson isn't better than an entire conference. We did just go 3-0 in football and 3-0 in basketball against your team though. Team SEC.

I guess this is where you pull up some more numbers from 1912 to show how fantastic Arkansas or Florida were in badminton that year. Cool. We'll take our 2 championships that the everyone on here but you care about and be happy.

This thread is such a little brother move. We know you're the little brother, but don't act like the little brother

I am a big sports fan, and do follow pretty much any sport the SEC competes in.

As stated before, congrats on your Natty but winning one in a generation is not that big a deal in this conference. The bigger point is you are such a bad sport to come on another conferences site and get all puffed up about it. Sure the Tigers, Tigers, and Vols are dickriding your win but it is not about you, it is about pissing off Tide fans. That you don't understand this makes it all the more sad to observe.

As for sports, I played many and was no water boy but as you get older in life it becomes less about you and more about what your kids and grandkids play. I have been to tons of football and basketball games in my life but I have also spent time at rifle and gymnastics meets. Maybe it is an age thing but being a fan later in life means supporting all the athletes and not just the ones where they get paid a lot to entertain. Spending time with some of these kids who are not getting paid and watching what they play through is good stuff. I suggest someday you put your ego in check and start supporting more Clemson sports than you seem to.

As for cringing for me, perhaps it is actually envy in that you are just a cog in the wheel of the All Carolina Conference and always will be while the SEC is 14 different homes I can visit cousins and squabble at the dinner table. To folks on the outside they see this as infighting but actually being in it means we are a tight family taking on all comers. It is something outsiders never get but always seem to desire. If this makes me a fool to you then so be it, but you are still on the outside at the end of the day and it certainly seems to get to you enough to post over here.

My guess is deep down inside you were the water boy or a jock sniffer and are so insecure to post here now. Either come here and discuss all sports with some real insight or go back to whatever homer board you live on and crow all you want. I am always humored on all these internet tough guys who don't get so tough when they meet me in real life. I was in the game and come from a family full of sports history. I cheer for UK basketball because I grew up with Rupp. I cheer for Bama because Bear and his family was a part of my life when I was younger. I am of an age that Tulane and Georgia Tech in the SEC seems like yesterday. I follow the Lady Vols because I knew Pat for years and still keep up with many of her former players. While this may be unknown to you it means any given year pretty much anybody can win but damn few can win again and again.

Do yourself a favor, enjoy your win but spend the time at a live sporting event the Tigers are playing now instead of encouraging the dickriders over here. That is what being a fan is all about, supporting the teams when they lose and not just when they win. Supporting the teams that need the love and not just the ones who win that you bask in their glow. If you actually live in Clemson the Tigers are taking on the Hogs and Cougars tonight so why not start today being a better Clemson fan. Perhaps someday you can get a lacrosse and field hockey team like your fellow ACC schools. More importantly you can get a softball team, because seriously, how can you be a serious P5 school without a softball team. You have a volleyball team, how in the hell can you not have a softball team?

You're trying to compare a conference as a whole to one school.

Nope, just saying if you are a real fan, you are a real fan, not some fair weather fan who shows up only when you win. SEC is family while Taters must be the red headed stepchild of the NC schools. No wonder the Terps took a powder to get away from the Heel and Dook folks.

I do not frequent ACC schools boards except the Hoos so why are you all suddenly here? This a conference board so discussions are about the conference, are you such a slow coach as to not see this?

Taking a break from the bitching and moaning for a second. I've never heard the term slow coach. I gather what it means, but where is that from?
