Okay, okay, okay. Yes, it is hard to believe I said such a thing, but as many of you might remember, I mentioned that my grandson is now attending FSU. Well, I just got a text from my daughter telling me that he got the job of running the scoreboard for home football games. The job had never been offered to a freshman before. It is a paid job, plus he is volunteering to do work with the training facilities. He is majoring in Sports Management, so this should be a good experience. Nonetheless, as I have never tried to hide my hatred for the Noles, I must support them now that my grandson is a Nole. That is, except when they play the Gators!

I worked in the athletic department when I was at UR working football and basketball games. Eventually did a bunch of TV and radio work that allowed me to travel with the teams. Was the highlight of my college experience. Really happy for your grandson. Tomorrow night should be a great game.

Ha-ha, awful early in the season to be switching teams but I watched the Utah game so I understand you want to support a winner! Hope he has a great time, I bet you don’t really get to watch and enjoy much of the game with all the responsibilities of information on modern scoreboards

They really needed someone better than the guy who did it last year. There were some egregious errors with last years scoreboard operator.

Tony, I attended the fewest FSU games since 1993. So I only got to see the Miami (Fl) and North Alabama games. Tell your grandson he did an exemplary job with the scoreboard. It was greatly appreciated after the debacle perpetrated on us last year where half the time the info on the scoreboard was incorrect or incomprehensible.

The guy that ran it last year quit after having the job for a long time. My grandson applied for the position and since he had experience running the scoreboard for his high school, they gave him the job.

Last time Tony was seen was his screeming Rammer Jammer. Roll Tide boys.

Tony, I attended the fewest FSU games since 1993. So I only got to see the Miami (Fl) and North Alabama games. Tell your grandson he did an exemplary job with the scoreboard. It was greatly appreciated after the debacle perpetrated on us last year where half the time the info on the scoreboard was incorrect or incomprehensible. The guy that ran it last year quit after having the job for a long time. My grandson applied for the position and since he had experience running the scoreboard for his high school, they gave him the job. The old guy must have been going senile or just confused by the updated scoreboard. There were bizarre statistics that would be put up last year. Incorrect scores on other games. Hope your grandson enjoyed the job. Glad to have him with the good guys
