My issue has 0 to do with any criticism of us not throwing the ball downfield and everything to do with the name he insists on using.Quote:

How is it demeaning?Quote:

But **** everybody was bitching on here about what was wrong with him early in the season and now everybody has forgotten a bout that. It's not criticism but observations. He ain't perfect but there isn't a QB in the country I or any other Bulldog would trade him for.
You queers that are so mad about this are you mad about the check down Charlie or are you really mad because C34 has gotten under your skin again...lets be real.
i'd like this explained as wellQuote:

I have never used the nickname that C34 came up with, so I will own nothing. But nice shotQuote:

34 eats his own! Big difference. You so call moderators should come to 34's rescue, but you guys calling pussies, stupid, pants in wad seem to have the same problem. There is a lot sensitive folks, no one including 34 likes to be called out, some are just more opinionated and that's when the name calling comes out. Hey, I understand it's a message board, jmo, now you can blast away.
Dear god, when did so many whiny little girls sign up for this message board? I would compare C34 calling Dak 'Checkdown Charlie' to someone being called 'Negative Nellie' or something like that.....it's just some stupid little moniker he is using to communicate the fact that he thinks Dak is checking down too much. C34 has been borderline obnoxious with his praise of 'Dakota' over the past 2 years, so I think it is safe to assume that he recognizes how great Dak has been......and he may be critiquing some aspects of Dak's play this season, but he damn sure isn't demeaning or disrespecting him. Some of yall are truly being ridiculous.
Do any of you that have these problems with Dak being called Checkdown Charlie have the same issue or take offense at c34 calling one of the best basketball coaches in the history of MSU Stands? He does it for the same reason. I find that much more demeaning for a great representative of our university than Dak being called checkdown charlie.
You are being ridiculousQuote:

Just because Dak is the best QB for us ever- it doesn't mean he is above criticism. Just like Cohen leading us to the NC round doesn't make him above criticism either.
No he isn't. It's the EXACT same thing. You were mocking Dak. Please lay off the nickname. It's offensive.Quote:

Of course to you the problem is the always the o-line that is statistically near the top of the SEC.
Unreal. You actually said Dak deserved to be mocked. WOW.Quote:

I think that's part of the reason why our team started off too slow this year. Too many people patting them on the back for getting to number one even though they didn't finish the job. If we come out with the right focus and energy from being pissed off about last year, we're probably undefeated right now.
