Bowl Games

[Minister of Truth]

Amazing how you guys are rehashing the civil war. Who really gives a shit anymore?
Especially in a college football thread.

Americans should care that their country was victorious over the Confederacy.

[Minister of Truth]

Sure do, now those same blue states are subsidizing their states

Who is going to pay for blue states' municipal and county retirement packages?

[CFM]

He didn't engage any soldiers?

He TARGETED civilians.

[CFM]

You talked Championships and I mentioned why Clemson didn't play for the championship one year. Relevant. It is on topic, just not your choice of years. Deal with it.

I specifically mentioned championship games without any reference to what you brought up. Not relevant.

Deal with what, a pussy that can't accept neither Tua nor Jalen could beat Clemson in a national championship game. Jalen ran and failed. Tua got his weak ass hurt. Not something to be proud of.

[CFM]

Sherman was not afraid to face soldiers. That is just ridiculous.

Is that why he TARGETED civilians?

Jalen Hurts beat Clemson in a semi-final game. That is relevant. You want to narrow the parameters to talk trash. The reality is, Hurts beat Clemson in the playoffs.

That would be relevant if Sherman ONLY fought against civilians. He didn't. It isn't.

Call it whatever you want. The confederacy was whipped back into line over 150 years ago. And most southerners are glad to be a part of the USA.

Irrelevant when the championship game was specifically mentioned. I don't need to talk trash. Hurts never won a championship by beating Clemson. When he was replaced by an injury prone pussy, he ran and ultimately got his ass whipped in a semi final. Perhaps he threw the game in order that he didn't have to get it whipped again in the CHAMPIONSHIP game.

It's relevant because when he couldn't defeat the military, he cowardly targeted civilians. In 1862, he was having trouble subduing Confederate soldiers in the Mississippi River area around Memphis. That's when he cowardly adopted the mindset of "collective responsibility" as a way to justify his attacks on civilians. In Tennessee, he took civilians as hostages then traded them for federal POWs or executed them. He burned Jackson and Meridian Mississippi to the ground despite no Confederate soldiers being there to oppose him. His soldiers, upon his orders, sacked the town, stole what they wanted and destroyed the rest.

Sounds like a real man except that he acted like a pussy when he couldn't defeat soldiers.

Yes, you narrowed the parameters to include ONLY Championship games. I didn't. Get pissy if you want. I'm not worried.

LMAO! You should look at his entire career. He attacked a fortified Atlanta and defeated soldiers. He also put effort into destroying or taking supplies. Not sure how many civilians he targeted, but it was far fewer than the number of soldiers he targeted.

And that's when you got pissy and tried to ease your pain of both of them having got their asses kicked in the championship game. Hurts should be hurting. He was replaced by an injury prone pussy, ran to another team, and got his ass kicked in an effort to relive the past.

You should be worried and for good reason.

[CFM]

His career turned to attacking innocent civilians when he couldn't defeat soldiers.

Interesting how you claim he targeted more soldiers and fewer civilians yet provide nothing to support that claim.

Do you have any specific numbers you can provide?

Claiming Sherman refused to fight soldiers is a lie. Whether you are lying intentionally or because of your own ignorance is for you to decide.

He served with distinction at Shiloh, fighting against soldiers.
He served at the Siege of Corinth, helping to take Vicksburg.
He led during the Campaign of Chattanooga, and ended up routing the confederates in TN.
He led his army into North Georgia, and had a disastrous defeat at the Battle of Kennesaw Mtn, because he tired a direct frontal assault.
He successfully took Atlanta. Which involved routing Hood out if the city. Once again, going against confederate soldiers that were dug in.
BTW, Gen. Hood commanded 60,000 infantry and 11,000 cavalry. But he was forced to retreat by the attacks of Sherman.


So yeah, Sherman had no problem facing soldiers.

Nor have you. How many civilians did he target?
