This was meant to be satire folks! Tongue-in-check type comedic relief! If it applies to Rising how would it look if you applied the same reasoning to Whittingham? You can see the ridiculousness of it.
Man-up and just be honest and focus on who and what you have to go to battle with! You know if Rising is good to go well before game day! Opponents are smart and are not affected by this nonsense. All this is just diversionary fluff in the end and frankly is frustrating to hear week after week for the fans and everyone else. Just tell it the way it is and let your preparations and game speak for itself!
