You almost have to watch what you say about a player. Its one of the reasons why I dont post as much, because I'm scared a players momy is going to come in and defend her little baby. If you are a parent or a friend please dont comment on a post you dont like about your player because you are bias, and bias people are blinded by what they want to see. You are toxicating peoples posts by defending your child or starting posts like "Where is so and so" please stop.

That one always intrigues me when he mentions the concept of "downgrading" an athlete. From "buy" to "hold," I guess?

Everyone is welcome, and encouraged, to post on PonyFans. That specifically includes student athletes, their parents and other relations.

The guy has guts if nothing else. Calling out the webbies is not the smartest thing in the world to do.

I like having the families of the players posting. They add some great perspective. The problem comes when posters think they have an inside track and obsess over certain players and claim to know more than they do.

Just don't say the name again. It's like Beetlejuice.

Did someone call my name? I am going to tell you exactly what I know is the truth whether you like it, care or whatever. Don't read it. Not only SMU fans read PonyFans. I have gotten some positive responses to many of my post. What I have discussed on here is always to shut some wanna be football player or coaches mouth. I know several players on this team, in which many of them have spent numerous amounts of time with me and my family. I have respect for them all. Thanks Pony Fans for allowing me to have some fun. By the way JWill could graduate in December if he wants. So much for grade issues? He has also had some positive contacts from SMU alumni and the NFL. So it is what it is. Folks in football know talent when they see talent. 52 tds and 1000 yards rushing in two seasons on this team raises eyebrows.

The word you're looking for is "biased" not "bias"... but, uh, it's your soapbox.
and "toxicating" isn't a word at all...
