    Well I was one who gave you one..took it off.
    As to humor, I have offered as many off handed, left handed compliments/ jokes as anyone alive.

    I never follow game threads, football, basketball et al..in my 64 years following the Gators ( since I was 12 and my sister was a freshman), I have celebrated wins, endured losses, but unfortunately, have suffered as “Gator” fans eviscerated the team, the plan, the coaches, the universe..all in the name of I HAVE AN OPINION.
    I offered my uninformed opinions exclusively on the premium board for two decades. After reading the “most informed, the most intense” Gator posters there, most of whom are reasonable..

    I could not justify paying $ while a hostile minority said inflammatory things about the team the even here, most support.

    end of “speech”..
    I dig humor…big time.
    Give the dunderheads like me, like a number, an
    emoticon or heads up, so we can have a chuckle and not have our honestly earned GATOR PTSD triggered.
    Happy moments have been in short supply, mi amigo, we are all out patients here.

    To all who have played any sports, and could not attain starter status, but worked along with them…
    Scrubs in not a term of endearment when mentioning anyone who sweats blood for the Orange and blue.
    Rant over.
    Keep posting. Iluvuman.

    We love the scrubs! Point taken, though. Perhaps an emoji would have helped convey my sarcasm. There were hardly any gators in the thread and I was posting a lot for this game, so figured those on the thread picked up on it, but forgot people read the game thread after it is over. All good. Tonight I'll be sure to properly express my dismay when our third stringers cost us a shutout against the Seminoles in a beat down that is long in the making.

    Youtube normally has the highlights of our games, with the holidays and families trying to watch a whole game by myself is tough.

    This site is sometimes fun to watch. Their numbers change from game-to-game so that's irritating. Really a "what have you done the last game?" approach. Still . . .

    It was tongue and cheek sarcasm. I don't really think anyone will be chastised, physically or mentally.
    As a side note, looking over the box score, I was amazed that none of the WSU starters scored more than 5 points.

    another crazy stat is Clayton Jr with 3 blocks. He has definitely bought in on defense

    I took a picture of the screen. At 6:32 it was 80-33. That was with players 6-11 for that 5 minute duration. We increased the lead.

    It wasn't until we put in players 12/13/14 that Wichita State (who still had at least one starter in) made a run. 14 players recorded a stat, 7 made a 3.

    Yeah, he's not ready to guard a Mark Sears, but he can probably hold his own against a lot of SEC guards. He did work hard last night. Went hard to the floor on that loose ball scramble and came up with it, leading to another Gator bucket.

    Chris Harry said it was their worst loss since 1945.
    Follow-up... I just checked, and the Wichita Eagle paper says it was their 5th-worst loss since 1945.

    Thanks. This factoid was quite impressive:

    There was a 14-minute stretch where Florida practically scored at will against WSU, piling up 53 points in a 26-possession span — effectively scoring 2.04 points per possession for a significant chunk of the game.

    yes exactly, our 2nd platoon actually increased the lead. 80-33 is the biggest lead I've ever seen us have as a Gators fan, and this was against a #75 6-0 team

    incredible. and that's for a stretch longer than 1/3 of the game. Not insignificant. It's an other-worldly stat, and this was not against a Div 3 team either
