There's another forum like this one called "FlaVarsity" and they have some sort of long-running inside joke called the "slaps" or the "slap nation".  I've always wondered what on Earth this is and they won't explain it over there.  So what is this already?????

There are more qualified people to answer that question BUT, from my time over there slap nation were some of the more outspoken, shit talking posters.  Very entertaining.  That board died a terrible death, lol.

There's only like 5 posters on there.  So what is "lame cringe crap"?

There was more years ago. Saying stuff like Slap Nation is cringe. It’s embarrassing and I’m embarrassed on anyone’s behalf who thinks that cool, funny or entertaining. It’s in the pantheon of lameness. If you were involved in it, I would suggest to change your screen name and deny any involvement in it.

Sorry you were not involved or didn't like it but the people that were, were actually real life friends and have some great memories together.  Most of them were great coaches with tons of state titles but more importantly they were good people who were just having some fun.  I'm a proud member and will cherish my time with those that were.  So you might be embarrassed for me but I'm proud to call most of them my friends for life.

Easy there. I’m not talking anything personal. I just said i remember being on that site a long time ago and seeing slap this and slap that and thought it was kinda corny. No sweat. I can guarantee you there are things I have done in my life that someone thought was lame or cringe. Lol. Not everything is for everyone. Also I was just being extra dramatic for ManateeMagicMike because that’s what message boards are for. Hyperbole :P

I feel like I'm at one of my wife's high school or college reunions . . . the stories just aren't that funny if you didn't know the people.    :P

Perspective, is there any truth to the rumor that you consider your wife the second smartest person that you know after you-know-who?

    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave. 
    • This will be an interesting story to follow.  Venice has no proven RB headed in to spring which will be a first for a long time.  They have produced several Dairy Farmers player of the years in that position.  They also will have a massive offensive line with 2 three year starters who return as well as some stud young kids.  They will probably average around 6'4 295 on the line which is huge for Venice standards.  I just wonder if this will change before the start of the season.  I still fell like someone will show up.
