I took your original comments to mean McDaniel had committed a football rule infraction. What he was pointing at or why I don't really know. He could have been telling Ponder "don't get in my way or you will get hurt". I find it interesting that Ponder has not complained. To my knowledge neither has Bowden. Remember FSU is the team who used to brag about knocking QBs out of games and who took pride in "playing until the echo of the whistle". Football Fan, accept my apologies.

No penalties forthcoming for Branch’s so-called dirty play

“Circulating on the Web is video of Branch placing his hand on the facemask of Florida State guard David Spurlock. From the video, it’s unclear whether anything more took place in the pileup as players frantically dove to cover a fumble Saturday.

Clemson also had the ACC office review the video, and the conference declared the incident a non-issue.”

The only thing that seems clear from this “news story” is that FitsNews reporting is indeed “Unfair. Unbalanced.”

I am a huge Clemson fan. I meant that I love watching McDaniel hit Ponder over and over. If they can't handle physical play at Tomahawk Nation then they might want to concentrate on basketball.

Sorry, I should have said that McDaniel pointed as if to say.... I was just in disbelief about what a bunch of pansies are out there, making a big deal about something so trivial that happened in a FOOTBALL game. I was trying to make a point, here is a legal play that someone was actually injured on and you are crying about a post-pileup scuffle that didn't even draw a flag.

I see you used quotation marks. Does that mean you have it recorded? If neither is true it is just your wild ass speculation. Football Fan, you heard Mc Daniel say this?

Here's the real video of the game. McDaniel's interception and then he points to Ponder and says "I just sealed the game and now I'm going to end your season." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfI6UZ8pwP0 You’re really going to cry about that, please.

And as an honest person, if I saw this same video with the Clemson player being the victim, I would be very upset at the missed call. I know this "rough-housing" is a part of football, but I was never a dirty player and will never support dirty playing. As far as a suspension, this does not appear to be a suspendable incident; however, it should have definitely been a 15 yard personal foul penalty. In any case, this had nothing to do with the shallacking that Clemson put on FSU...and if Clemson hadn't spent so much time hurting themselves with turnovers in the red-zone and missed kicks, the score would've been much worse..
