This blog is created in response to the groundswell of people against Mickey Dopey D and all his dopeyness, particularly opinions BC-related. After all, Mickey D was the one who challenged the author when the author said the firing of Jim "6K in My Desk" O'Brien and the hiring of Al (God) Skinner was a good thing. Mickey D was also the one who laughed when the author said Scoonie Penn would be Big East Rookie of the Year, that Dante Abrams would be a player, that Skinner could recruit NBA players, etc. The author has heard nary an apology for those misfires.
2007 brings a new coaching change on the football side, Mickey D predictably taking the position that Clock Killin Tom O'Brien and his mundane offense were the best things that ever happened to BC, better than Flutie and Foley, better than Troy Stradford and Pete Mitchell. Under O'Brien, Mickey D believed, BC could achieve decades of glorious Tire and Muffler Bowls, the reward being the chance to wipe out MAC and Sun Belt opponents on Tuesday afternoons before Christmas. Wasn't that the promised land according to Mickey D? Wasn't that all BC and its fans could ever realistically expect according to Mickey D? The author said no, we need a new coach cuz this program can take it a little further, and Mickey D laughed again. Well I say a pox on you Mickey D, BC is going to a BCS bowl THIS YEAR, now that we have shed the Hen and his "play not to lose" mentality. No more WTF games. No more blown chances for real bowls. Time for BC fans to dream of greater things. Time for BC to smack negativity in the mouth and shout, "Take that Mickey D!"
