Question? Is Cap Sidney O'Reilly really a person

Or a bot or Siri like creature, representing a future life form of an electronic being who is more encylopedia than human. More savant than person.
Answer, you make way too much of me. Just loving seeing Pitt get a Head Coach that is more Pitt than Majors & Sherrill were in the 1970s. If others cannot see it yet, well, they were not around in 1973?

On the "Paris" name above in the other posts, I added it for a reason????? There is a Coach East of Pitt that talks like "Achilles,' but wait and see what Pitt Players like Paris will do to that Heel, in 2017 too?

Like in the Movie Gung Ho Quote, "I Like You, You Make Me Laugh"!
Respect your Posts the Most!

I would say the misplaced question marks are the worst feature.
They are for me to see more than others! Rivals put them there why not use them? It is just a style, not gospel, and ferrets out some others that won't or can't post content, so it be what be?

Glad you post here too!

Cap'n >> I really enjoy your posts and input. Colors, capitals, question marks... that's what make you, you. Don't let criticizers get you down.
Thank you, but never get offended and if so can defend my posts so long it is on content, and not afraid to credit many that corrected me, they just educate the Lair even more!
 
This response is further evidence of what makes you a gentleman. I recognize, appreciate and respect that fact.
To be fair, sometimes I do have too much zeal, but that is up to me to deal with it.

I wish I had as much Pitt Players Zeal as Coach Pat Narduzzi that is the Real Deal and Perfect Fit for PItt..........much like Paris, and that other "Ffrench" name in Lamont......meaning he will lay down the Law Hits if Pitt Is It? Hope he Wade's in for Pitt is It To Win A Championship at Pitt!

Heck, they already named a Restaurant after him and it overlooks Heinz Field???
Talk about Hall of Fame, Lamont may buy it one day and rival Bettis's Place! Stay Home and don't be a Pryor!


Lamont-Scottish and northern Irish: from the medieval personal name Lagman, which is from Old Norse Logmaðr, composed of log, plural of lag ‘law’ (from leggja ‘to lay down’) + maðr, ‘man’ (genitive manns)....From The Mountain.

Cap,

We love ya brother! You are a PITT fan with endless energy! Keep the faith!
Thank you, but it is getting near the Time to pass the Baton, and so many more Great Posters come here everyday and postings far more than I used to know! I am just glad they post good content too.

I like Penn State as a Great Rival with many outstanding Alumni I have met and enjoy, and WVU too, and respect both, but I have been a Pitt Fan since 1963 when my Sister took me to a Rally in the Quad before the Penn State Game and will never forget it as I pulled on the Panther Mascot Tail, and he pretended to go wild with his hands to his head then chase me.

I always like Owtie after that, I am just surprised he is still the Mascot still taking classes?
;) Just Ribbing Owtie, I know you graduated last term in Improv!

Thanks for sharing your story.........I like the story behind the interest in PITT!

Mine was marching behind the Army Cadets from the train station to PITT stadium as a young boy. When you can remember that singular reason.....you are hooked.

Whole family went to Pitt, and just kept taking me to games, High School Coaches too. It would be nice to hear how others became Pitt Fans too? I know most by graduation, but why they went to Pitt would be nicer to hear too!
 
Just 4fact in lair world
Well, on BWI some call me the Penn State Plague but I just use Facts and Stats as the Pitt Cure for when a few misguided Nittany Liars attempt to attack the Lair in fear of Pitt Posters will tell the Truth about a few of them?I know more about their University than I do about Pitt, I leave that to CP!

At the same time, the Best Penn State Posters have no fear to post on the Lair because they can't Post on BWI anymore, Board Without Integrity, much like lacking Athletic Integrity since 1966. All talk CFB Content here more than State Hate and I like a Great Penn State and WVU too, for a Great Pitt too.

Someday soon all 3 Programs will play each other far more than being Unrivaled as their fears start to Unravel?

Rivals doesn't put them there. It also doesn't ferret out some that won't post content. If you are trying to get posters to respond to your points with good content, you would be better off making it clearer when you are asking a question vs. declaring a fact.

"topdecktiger, post: 1679818, member: 3806"]Rivals doesn't put them there.
Disagree, Rivals has some of the longest post times on the internet! You should know that, Rivals took off in early 2000s? Great place to discuss CFB! Bought by yahoo and now Verizon. I have a very close friend that works for Yahoo and the Secret Service that investigated Cyber Crimes and he was in the know. He has since been working with the NFL and said one of the most valuable aspects is Yahoo Sports and Rivals that Verizon finds very valuable. I am going out to Stanford in December to spend 2 weeks with him over Christmas and take in some Hoover School Seminars and always go to the Commonwealth Club on Nob Hill. I am looking forward to hearing some tidbits.

It also doesn't ferret out some that won't post content.
Sure it does, it allows other Posters to ferrets out some that give opinions without backing them up. I made you back up your posts many times, and you posted confusion doing it on occasion yourself! I also credited you on many occasions and thanked you too! Content cuts both ways.

Rivals is the system all Posters and you too have our own content, just like me! I put up Links to back up some Facts to bolster my opinions and others that follow some areas too, like you!


If you are trying to get posters to respond to your points with good content, you would be better off making it clearer when you are asking a question vs. declaring a fact.
I just did and those facts now are back on you? You are one of the Great Posters on the Lair too, that is fact too! You and others put up topics I have no clue about, nor respond, but enjoy being informed by you and them, and just read them.

Oh I don't hate Captain, I am just thinking he is the board version of Siri. And Siri is not real, but a computer program, so I am wondering if that is what Captain is.
No offense taken either Owtie, just keep posting good comments like you do, a stated enjoy and respect them very much, you are an original world shaker!
