To All of Those Nole Haters

   Let's get this out right away. You hate the Noles because we are winning. Period. Oh, you will say things like Jameis Winston is the reason. Bull. Yeah, he has done some stupid things, I wish he hadn't but, and highly likely after this year, he will be gone and you will still hate us. You say things like, "The football program has no leadership and the local police treat the players differently then other people." Really. Name me a college town, with a good football program, that does not have the police give breaks to players. Gainesville?  No leadership? Jimbo Fisher just got a raise and contract extension and he has returned the Seminoles around and back to prominence in football. He has 125 players, plus coaches and other people that work for FSU's football program, and all you want to point out is extra soda from Wendys.
   Florida State has won 29 games in a row. Only a handful of teams in the history of college football have managed to win more in one streak. Last year FSU, not only won all of their games they won and dominated more then any team in history. Did they just glide into the championship game? No. They had to wait for other teams to lose before securing a spot in the game and then all everyone talked about was they couldn't beat an SEC champion. After winning the game, the haters, could only say, "Yeah, they won, but they didn't beat Alabama." Are you seeing a pattern here? We win big and yet we don't deserve to be in the championship. We win the game and we didn't beat a certain team. This year we win close and all you hear is that we are struggling. Other teams win close, they persevere and find a way. FSU is lucky.
   So what do I have to say? Get over it! We may lose tomorrow. I don't want that to happen, but if we do, it has been fun and will continue to be fun, for years. We could win, tomorrow and then the haters will have to put up with us for one more game this year. We are one of the best programs in the country. We have a great coach and some of, if not the best, facilities in college football. The haters will have to grind their teeth and endure. The Nole supporters will continue to celebrate. No mater how the rest of the season plays out, remember, we are still playing in a game that means something. Their are 146 teams that wish they were in the same place as Oregon, Ohio State, Alabama and Florida State. We are and they aren't. Deal with that.
