Just some of y'all. The rest of us still go to Tennessee football games.

That's not fair.

Some of us live 10-12 hours away. Spend 1000-1200 a trip to go see our beloved vols.

I'm sorry if I expect to see a good game.

Of course it's fair. Don't sit on your cushy couch 10hrs away and gripe at the people who spend a whole day getting too and from the game. If you don't go and support the team that's understandable. But don't ***** at the people that do. That's all I'm saying.

So when they get better are you as a bandwagon fan going to go.

When the product on the field is worth the price of admission then I'll go. I've turned down free tickets on many occasions because I didn't think it was worth the trouble. I got free tickets to last years Bama game and went only to ask myself "why did I come over here?".

Edit: just because I choose not to attend doesn't make me a bandwagon fan or less of a fan than you. I could argue that I'm more of a fan than you because I refuse to accept the mediocrity that UT football has become.

I think the ones not going are the ones under attack here.

I'm not complaining about the people that do. I just quoted that other post of yours because I felt you generalized all the fans that don't go.

When I go. I'm there for the whole game. All of it.

:eek:lol: At least you're honest. All you care about is watching a winner. You might be happier with another team. Or teams, since the payoff of a win is what you're looking for.

No, I generalized the fans that don't go that gripe about the fans that don't go. Surely you see the ignorance in it?

Well, you're posting about attendance. And some of us attend and some don't. So what is the issue exactly?

Did I attack your fandom? Or anyone for that matter? While you at the same time, and others have said go cheer for another team, or you're just a bandwagon fan.

I don't blame anyone for not going. If you're not getting your money's worth, don't go. But the idea that's been argued in this thread that fans who do go are chumps, and perpetuating the problem, is just silly. It's dumber than the "Dooley would have done a better job" guy.

It's not just about winning it's about fielding a team that's not a total embarrassment. I've got friends that are fans of other teams that don't even talk trash with me now because it's not any fun to them anymore. It's like making fun of UT football is like making fun of a retarded kid to them.

The issue doesn't matter. Keep throwing punches and flashing your badge all while showing blatant disregard for the language rules you enforce.

I suck as a mod. I never claimed otherwise. And quit following me around. You're creepy.

Forgive me if I took your post wrongly. I could have sworn I was being criticized for staying home.

Edit: GBO

LOVE LOVE the GBO!!

And I wasn't saying anything about "you" staying home. I was saying it's stupid for those who make no effort to go the games to criticize those who do.

Ok, I understand. I admire you and others that support the team with your attendance when they suck sooooo bad.

The issue? I can explain that. The issue is that our team is terrible, our team is habitually ill-prepared, the coaches do not take responsibility, they just blame the last guy, the administration is a mismanaged disaster, but we're supposed to be patient and blindly support this mess, according to some. That is utter bs.

You are quite the fan Mr. Volzhsky.

Tell me a little bit about yourself and why you're a fan of Tennessee football?
