Eating War Eagle

Post by BUS »

Yes, that is the menu for this week. My wife suggested that I smoke the birds then BBQ half.

Love these players and hope that we WIN OUT.

It is all about preparation.

See you on Saturday at 2 pm.

So eating the war eagle is not appealing to the taste buds. How about tater salad and bubba gump shrimp?
Hope all get to the Boulevard and enjoy the day. Then leave at 5:30 to get into the game and support our team.
Love the Line.

Love the players and hope we lose by 50. That's how much I despise June Jones.

Not a fan of negative. I too work on not going there when behaviors warrant.
Current focus...
Love the Line

Players are the ones bustin' their ars - and you want THEM to lose the game? Don't think you qualify as a "fan".

I'm not worried about what are by a mile the worst fans in America think of me as a fan. I've been to every home for the last ten years, road trips to Pullman, Annapolis, Tulsa, Houston, Ft Worth, Huntington, and Orlando watching this team play. Also been a Mustang Club member since graduation. I'm also one of maybe 100 young alumni who actually give a rat's [deleted] about this program and our future.

If it means the firing of June Jones I hope we lose these last three games by 50 points each. Otherwise the yes man Hart and RGT will bring him back for another year. This man doesn't want to be here, has no passion left in the tank, and it is reflected in every aspect of our program from recruiting to execution to press conferences. Get this fraud away from the school I love.

So go ahead and call me not a fan. I pity the losers who actually think this thing is going in the right direction.

Has ANYONE, A N Y O N E, said they think we're currently headed in the right direction? This is an argument between those who believe June Jones has completed the work we asked him to do and is currently stalled (but with a admittedly remote possibility of continuing to move this thing upward a bit) and those who hate his guts because he doesn't "care" and who hurt our feelings by considering a move to a PAC 10 program, who won't wear Cole Haans and professes a love for one of the most beautiful places in the world (hint: not Dallas).

Hoping your team loses is about as rational as running a busload of school children into a bridge because you hate the contractor who built the bridge.

By the way, I'll say for the thousandth time that I think he's done here.

Dumbest thing ever posted on this board. But you're a June fanboy. What else should I expect.

Attempt to be a little rational.

Ponyboy, I disagree with your assessment. An overwhelming majority of people on here that want June gone are saying that they want him gone because they believe that he isn't the right person to lead us forward from this point.

I believe that June has done a decent job for us in getting us to a few bowl games. I further believe that his lack of emphasis on recruiting in the post-Klemm era will hurt us going forward. I believe that June's offensive system is not as successful as it once was because defenses are better prepared for spread attacks and because June has not recruited well here. Finally, I believe that June has not adapted his offense enough to fit the talent he does have, and that has cost us some games.

I disagree with June on geldings, wearing black, and other things, but those are not my reasons to fire him.

I do believe that June has the right to explore other jobs. That said, I believe that June recruited for ASU while under the employ of SMU, and I believe that is a terminable offense. Further, I believe that he presented outright lies to the Mustang Club immediately after the ASU debacle, and should have been fired for that.

But Orsini chose not to fire him for those things, so I decided to see what would happen after that. It's safe to say that we have stalled our forward progress this year, and have actually taken a step backwards.

June is not our man moving forward, and that is why we need to be moving on.

Really appreciate the support you give the program. We need a thousand plus more like you. Just a friendly heads up, you are never, never a fan when you wish your team to lose. That is being a defeatist to the inth degree. That loser mentality does nothing for this program.

Winning 6 games and keeping June Jones around does NOTHING to solve the problems this program has as we transition to the Big East. Therefore, if we lose and lose convincingly, we force the issue and the administration/athletic department will have no choice but to make a move.

I've sat through a winless season and countless seasons where there was absolutely no hope whatsoever. Honestly I don't give a damn what you think merits fanhood. SMU has proven that it rewards mediocrity. If we find a way to backdoor our way into a bowl game or go 6-6 then I can assure you Jones won't be fired. His atrocious recruiting and antiquated offense will set us back 3-5 years as we make the most important move the program has made since the breakup of the SWC. We simply can't afford another year of June Jones. Period.

Oh you are still a fan, just a fan with a loser mentality. You are what you are and you do what you do. Look I get what you are saying, just quit wishing the players to lose. That is not good.

I hate it for the kids. I truly do. But the program is bigger than the kids. I'm happy that they will walk away from SMU with a free, world class education. They've returned the program to a modest level of respect. Its a shame their leader is a scumbag who'd rather be anywhere but here if it wasn't for the fact we pay him like a drunk Saudi sultan.
