In my opinion you are the worst kind of poster on this message board. Anyone that puts down a fan for not attending the University is insane. Do you think Neyland would ever be full if only alumni and current students attended games? I never attended UT, does that make me less of a fan? Instead, I decided to serve my country. That doesn't stop me from attending at least a couple of games a year. It's obvious by the way you write your posts that you are trying extremely hard to sound eloquent in hopes it will give you some kind of credibility. Well I'm not fooled by words like "impugn." You're posting on a message board where you can add smiley faces and gifs of Kermit the frog jerking off. I hope you don't speak the way you write because no one will take you seriously. I have a word for you, how about pretentious.
I'm the worst kind of poster? Did I characterize his post
as "stupid crap?" And on what basis did he do so? I
stated my sources and claimed only that I had heard. He
never has identified any source and makes his statement
as though carved in stone.
Perhaps my posts should be unwarranted attacks on
others based on ignorance. It was my understanding, or
misunderstanding, that I had a right to an opinion. My
apologies.
You are a judge of writing styles? Really. I am a
published author (sorry, not comic books), a former
foreign correspondent who spent decades living in other
countries and used to write for an academic journal.
Again, my apologies for not meeting your standards.
Naturally, you missed my point. There are people calling
themselves fans that have no interest in the university.
Some of them neither realize nor care what impression
they make. Some of those impressions leave people
thinking less than others of us would like about a school
that we hold in esteem.
I'm glad you served your country. I guess my service in
Korea was too long ago to count.
