[NU Sports] Cardiac Cats!!!!!

It's not really a 'focus on the negative' as much as it is a focus on  
reality.  GREG COLBY continues to give up yardage (and points) at an  alarming rate. 
 Today's 586 yards and 48 points brought GREG COLBY to 2,953  yards (an 
average of 422 per game) and 226 points against (an average of 32.3 a  game).  This 
digs a TREMENDOUS hole every week that the offense has to dig  itself out of. 
 
 
In his shameful 6 year NU career, GREG COLBY has given up an astounding  
29,213 yards (about 430 per game) and an equally astounding  2,108  points (31 per 
game).  This is unfair to both the offense (which  essentially has to start 
each game 30 or so points down) and the defense, which  has talented young men 
that deserve much better direction.  In fact, the  high point of this 
afternoon's game defensively was the sequence of second-half  interceptions, in which 
our defenders' athleticism, character and heart overcame  the moron who was 
ostensibly leading them, and, in effect, took GREG COLBY's  headsets off.
 
If GREG COLBY were a man of character, he would have tendered his  
resignation today.  He's not, of course - our players on BOTH sides of the  ball will 
have to overcome his incompetence for the next 5 games.   That's not being 
negative, just REAL.

PS - Is the Mark Murphy Publicity machine already preparing press  releases 
for the Purdue game - when GREG COLBY will probably hit the 30,000 yard  mark 
(in only his sixth season !) ?
