Bad Fans? None here!

I will have to thank one of the froggies for joggling my brain a little.

So many guys get on here and bash SMU, yet every single guy who takes the time to post truly loves SMU. We all come up with ideas on how to put more butts in the stands, but the truth is that every person who posts here either attends the games or wants to be there.

We can all continue to dog the team (guilty as charged) but trying to tell the "choir" to go to the game......you are preaching to them.

I am down on the team for sure, but I am still going to the game and I know I will see every person reading this there as well.

The bad SMU fans are not at the game.

Here is to an upset that Pony Fans deserve.

I second that. If I didn't care I wouldn't waste my time on this site.

Well said, DBlueB!

I'll be making the trip down this weekend, as I will for every home game. I'll also be at A&M, Houston and of course, Tulsa, and I'll be screaming my lungs out at each one.

Go MUSTANGS!

At least you're not like this one "fan" that is mentioned in an ESPN story by a tulane football player.

"One of the girls I was talking to," said Mason, the linebacker, 'said, 'I wish we had a team that didn't suck. I know who I will be rooting for in a couple of weeks.'"

Actually I think she speaks for a lot of the "fans" out there... except it's pretty amazing that she realized that we even had a team.

That pisses me off. I know that is the sentiment among a lot of the "fans", but it just sucks to read that, on ESPN.com no less.

I too will be at the game sat. night, like I always am cheering and giving a little "3rd down thunder". I decided I wasn't going to the game yesterday afternoon, but by last night I knew I was just kidding myself. I'll se everybody at the Blvd. and in the stands.

I blame ESPN for using that in the story. That's just bad journalism.. especially in a "feel-good" story like that.

That's the same sentiment I read posted on this board by the everybody, why bash her for being honest?

I'll be at the game Saturday, pulling for the Mustangs and keeping an eye on the scoreboard for updates on the Sam Houston State v. Univ. of Houston game. GO MUSTANGS! BEAT THE HELL OUTTA THE FROGS!
