Bobby Bowden Has Tallahassee's Full Support

Florida State fans are a fickle bunch. They expect to win every dang year. Go figure. They're a "What have you done for me lately" group. Screw the hundreds of wins and national titles. 4-3 and 1-3 in the Atlantic Coast Conference ain't gettin' 'er done.

After a tough night at the office and a near sleepless night at home, Florida State coach Bobby Bowden couldn't help but notice the large "For Sale" sign on his lawn as he backed out of the driveway Sunday.

A prankster had placed the sign on the Bowden yard in the overnight darkness after archrival Miami defeated the Seminoles 37-29 with 13 points in the final 1:15.

Oh well. Bowden didn't seem too vexed.

"It ain't there now," chuckled Bowden, who removed the sign. "I ain't selling. I'll save it for when I get ready to move."

I think the real concern here is not the fact that someone played a prank on Bowden, it's the fact that all this losing has possibly cost FSU it's greatest and most knowledgeable fan. Although now that USF is no longer undefeated, maybe Miss Sterger will move on to another Florida school with her support. Gators anyone?
