Georgetown football has now won four games (1-0 in Patriot League play). However, I've not seen them play and thus haven't offered any opinion - not on the 2024 Georgetown football team or their being any kind of detriment to 'your' program. My only pointed thought directed to you last week was that it's more than delusional to imagine anybody's 'shading' you; and that a number of veteran posters of this forum (including the great, Penn Nation) had reported that the current edition of Georgetown is, as they see things, not very good. And my expectations were that someone as astute as you clearly are- if you were paying attention, that is - would have surely factored in those remarks to your humble assessment of all things related to 'your' program and IL football. Moreover, you initiated that strange exchange with Go Green last week; as much as you're triggering this odd back and forth today.

And you're well aware that FOUR games does not a season make! To that point, I'd feel bad if you continue to lose sleep over a misinterpretation of my observations or those of Go Green - as you will persist in your daily analysis of 'your' program and the state of IL football. Understand, you're really going to need your sleep in the days ahead - given the 2am wakeup call you'll have to endure on October 26th; to allow yourself enough time to prepare your delicious lunch and to jump in your jalopy; praying the whole drive long, you'll be able to squeeze the jalopy reasonably well in any spot somewhere on The Bronx side of the Westchester County line, with enough minutes to spare to skedaddle on foot from there in the express direction of Baker Athletics Complex; and with fingers crossed, that you'll arrive in your Wien Stadium seat while the outcome of the Homecoming game remains in doubt.

Cheers.

I saw the game; we played reasonably well but seemed to lack the intensity that we showed in both the Lafayette game and the subsequent game against Princeton. We also played without Chase Goodwin and Bryson Canty. I predicted it was a trap game, and that’s what it turned out to be. I think we looked past Georgetown. But all that matters is that they won, they played well, we did not play up to par, and we paid the price.
