As long as we win - right, boys?!

Where does one draw the line on the so-called character issue? Is it lying to recruits? Warning recruits about the health frailties of another coach? Having relations in the bathroom of a restaurant? Crashing your motorcycle with a woman who's not your wife? Infidelity?

Gossiping and character assignation like a little b!tch on a message board until one gets banned or threatened by attorneys? Is that good character or not?

I'm very confused, cuz some folks seem to have a variable definition of character depending upon their agenda and their own sense of self righteousness.

Where does one draw the line? I don't know, but they drew it with Tim Lester and Rob Buck.

Honestly, the crime doesn't concern me in the least...........it's the cover up that's most revealing.

A little remorse and honesty heals a lot of sins.

So the Broncos are averaging 47.5 points in their 4 conference games.

The depth and versatility of running backs is a pleasant surprise. Bogan is quick, shiftiy, and explosive and heads for the goal line.

Wide receivers are amazing. I have even noticed Davis adopting some Braverman moves of late to get extra yardage after the catch. Henry is gifted as well.

Terrel is a very poised QB and is willing to take punishment after the throw. His experience has reduced his mistakes and he has become even more reliable.

Flacco is a pleasant surprise. It was fun seeing him hurdle over the Eastern tackler.

The O-line has really come together. Very young and gaining experience and confidence.

Nacho mentioned in a post that Broncos may have to score 70 points in each of their last three games since they gave up 28 to Eastern.
He has a point...but it leans more to the defensive side of the ball where the backs cannot lose their men and give up big gains.

As mentioned in a previous post, really glad the Haldeman is hitting those field goals and points after. That was a real weakness. Have to
give Fleck credit for sticking with him and developing his confidence.

Also, offensively, the Broncos are displaying multiple offensive schemes and each game seem to be gaining momentum and confidence there.

Have a great Halloween everyone.

Whoah, what happened with Lester And what was being covered up??

Yep. We were down 7-6 early after his two 40+ yarders. I was HAPPY as hell. I would have rather had THAT then us being up 14-7. No lie (because, well, it was EMU, and I knew we were going to win in the end anyway).

Lets count our "blessings" and forget the character crying about our head coach!
Here is a note taken from Eastern Michigan site,

Creighton probably could've beat Cubit too. We are talking about regression without recognizing that WMU has a really good program right now. I have no problem giving credit where credit is due. Fleck was a dynamite hire. It still remains to be seen with Creighton, but when you know your defense is going to give up 50-60 points before the game even starts, it's not a good sign. A lot needs to change next year, or we will have a pretty extensive "head coach search" thread on this board yet again.

Count your blessings? It's a mid major football program, not a cure for cancer.

The EMU comment is as stupid as your "count our blessings" diatribe. What don't you Flecktards get? You can be a Bronco fan without jizzing all over yourself about your beloved man crush coach. Fact is I didn't even bring it up. I pointed out we gave up s lot of offense to a crap team and we need to clean it up to beat BG or UT.

Then the Mancrush7 sharpen their knives because to question anything on the field is to question Peej.

We do need to clean up our defense.

Offense is a MAC juggernaut. The thing that rarely gets talked about is the line. These guys are starting to play at a lower to mid-tier P5 program level with potential for more given the relative youth of the line at center and RT. Everyone that is starting right now beside Willie Beavers will be back next year.

Chip, my comments and the post from Eastern board was just "stating" we (WMU) should be glad (blessed) or whatever. we have a "good program" right now! Further, the Eastern comment came from an outside source, (without "bitterness") that Fleck was dynamite hire!

Now you may not agree with that comment from me or Eastern board. That is your right! However just a day or so ago you stated you were a Bronco fan for 40 years, even thou you don't like our present coach. We understand that! But why attack every poster that doesn't agree with you?

Now at anytime in this reply to you, did I call your comments "stupid"? No, then why would you attack my post and start calling me and the "many" Coach Fleck positive posters names (Fleckards)? You used to be a fun and positive poster on this site and I enjoyed reading your comments.

Really sorry to see you turn so "bitter", what you don't seem to understand, we (others) just like the way our team is "coached" and is producing. A few weakness in the secondary need some attention, I agree. But I know from playing and coaching many years that the secondary is trying to help the linebackers that are (beat up) Spillane, DePalma, etc.. That is the reason some EMU guys got behind us when the QB was scrambling. Or coaches will take care of this by next week. Stay positive it is really easy.

Dear Pot,

I don't attack every poster who disagrees with me. But every time I don't slobber over our performance the Mancrush7 jump to the conclusion that I'm projecting my dislike of Fleck on the team.

Sincerely,

Kettle

Yeah that last paragraph was money.

Like most B!tches can do. I think he's a shelia.

How do you get 47.5 pts in the 4 Conference games? CMU=41, OU=49,
Miami U=35, and EMU=58. 41+49+35+58=183/4=45.75

No question Offense has been rolling the last month (could've used some of those points in Statesboro though).

Opposition has not been stellar. Real tests as we all know will come last three games.

Hopefully we won't get into shootouts with-have to outscore BG, NIU, UT.

I should have used Fact Check. I just assumed the average in the post title was correct.

Thanks for checking the math, Boca Rocket. I always need help.

45.75 points a game still looks pretty good.
