I'm not, I'm just making a point about the state of the program. My last post was in defense of the implication that I'm less of a fan than that sunshiner. Unless you consider the use of the term "sunshiner" to be an attack, which I don't.

Then maybe I've picked the wrong person. There is a group of roving wolves on this board who get really worked up when anyone dares cheer their team on. I thought you were one of them. Apologies.

Oh, right. No attack there, bud.

No, you got the right guy, ponyboy.

I have no problem with 'demanding change'. But there is a difference between 'demanding change' and gratuitously ripping the program.
The latter is not constructive - at all. And I'm afraid I do question the motives of those fans who engage in this.
Read Chris Phillips' last spring report on the football board.
That's what it's all about.
Is he just being a 'sunshiner'? ..... I don't see it that way.
He, the players, and the coaches (cue "Varsity") are giving it all they've got and we should support them - any way we can. If it means keeping our mouth shut sometimes, then so be it.
peace out.
