1. The smoke from the forrest fires are causing the Griz players to breath in bad air. Only the Griz are having problems breathing.
2. Fans emptying out at half-time for tailgating weren't back in their seats by the start of the 3rd QT and the Lumberjacks scored most of their points during this period.
3. If we didn't have 5 turnovers we would won the game.
Egriz is the best thing to read on the internet after they lose. Quality reading and you can find comedy and tragedy.
Congratulations on being the biggest greasy baby-shit stain on the internet. I used to hope that your team would get a win now and again but never again. You should continue on your downward spiral, not much farther to go, and continue disgrace the Big Sky Conference with fielding, what you call, a football team.
You should be ashamed in seeking happiness in others despair. Dancing and shouting about how awesome it is that UM lost while your team continues to drown in the shallow end of the pool.
I will be starting threads each week about how awesome UNC played and how they really fought to the end and only lost by 30 or 50 or what-have-you. I really hope you enjoy them.

No shit. They caused the fumbles but McKinney being a shitty QB is what caused his picks. Not the NAU defense.Grizalltheway wrote:Well, McKinney threw the ball directly to your defense on his two picks.dbackjon wrote:

I wish they would give SS-H a try. McKinney has shown he can't throw the ball.

Kids a RS Freshman. If Delaney or any Griz fan did not think starting a young kid would have ups and downs this year have their head stuck in those forest fires. As another thread pointed out, he is on par with JJ of last year. One loss is not the end of the world and Montana got a good wake up call (both coaches and players) by an NAU team that played 60 minutes while Montana played about 25. The Sac loss last year was just as bad and had the same reaction from Griz fans.

I'm not sure SSH has, either. That TD was way underthrown, it's just that Henderson beat his guy by about 10 yards.Vidav wrote:No shit. They caused the fumbles but McKinney being a shitty QB is what caused his picks. Not the NAU defense.Grizalltheway wrote:

Re: 1,000 and One excuses on Egriz
Yep. The Griz picked apart NAU's zone early, but NAU's switch to man often took away his first read. That, coupled with mediocre pass protection, caused him to panic. The first & third picks were about McKinney forcing things & throwing the ball up for grabs. The second pick was a good read, just a horrible throw.Grizalltheway wrote:TMac threw a great long pass on the first big play of the game.

Using turnovers as an excuse is and always has been a bitch move. I leave that shit to EWU fans for the most part.

The Griz are an elite team and you all know it. That's why you like to beat them so much. Hell, it's why you like to jump on another jock when they beat them.

I seem to recall most of the Griz fans on here using the turnovers excuse in '10.
Re: 1,000 and One excuses on Egriz
Alright alright there's nothing more to see here, you've all had your fun at the Grizzlies posters expense now disperse and move on. Montana is synonymous with the Big Sky conference, but NAU is no fluke this year. They've always managed to get some talent but this year, unlike most, they went deep into the JUCO ranks and "out recruited" many bigger programs for JUCO all star players. They have talent and they have depth and they have a favorable schedule. They were better at nearly every position then Montana. With SLO now in the Big Sky and NAU having the strongest team in, well maybe ever, and ROOTS Sports, talent rich southern California and Las Vegas are going to open up to SLO and NAU and change the dynamics of the conference forever.Ursus A.

Re: 1,000 and One excuses on Egriz
Not gonna lie... Im not impressed at all with Gregorak the D Cordinator. He looks like a little kid jumping up and down on the sidelines throwing his little fits. He has the same philosophies as his mentor Paulson. When getting the ball pounded down your throat do nothing about it and take it like a man. Ive seen that one too many times play out before in big games.. At least with Breske, if he got burned in the beginning of the game but he would make halftime adjustments to straighten it out. This team has been getting blown out in the second half of games this year.. We did nothing to try and stop the run against NAU along with p!ss poor arm tackling that doesnt help either. If we continue to play like this and our coaches arent willing to make correct adjustments its going to be a long season.......

Re: 1,000 and One excuses on Egriz
If the other Griz fans aren't gonna say it, I will. Being down on the field for this game, I got to see, and hear just about everything.
Griz dominated the first half. NAU destroyed the second half. Plain and simple. Hearing the coaches bitch at each other got entertaining. The players were positive, picking each other up and giving encouragement. Delaney did a little, until he got ran over by the ref on the sidelines right in front of me.
