People spend thousands of dollars to go to these games and your saying were not invested. He gets a free education to play a sport. I had to pay for college and guarantee you I'll spend 50x on this university then he ever does

Money is only ever money.

The average fan plops himself on the couch every Saturday and then brags or *****es about the result. These kids sweat and hurt and bleed every day just getting ready for these games. But when that gameday result comes up short of expectations, somehow it's the fans who got the raw deal.

Nah.

What an immature, ridiculous, entitled thing to say. What is he, your employee, your son, your dog? He has to 'shut up and play' but fans get to say whatever the hell they want? Fans think because they spend time and money that their investment entitles them to something! Pisses me off and I don't even have a dog in the fight.

The problem is so many fans view the team, and players, as something they paid for in order to gain some identify. Gain some self-worth. Gain a sense of being a winner because they dont gain those things in other areas of their life. So when they don't feel like they are getting those things they think they can say whatever they want to display their disgust. And the team and players have to take it because the fan earns that right. It's embarrassing. Find your identity and self-worth in something else in life. Treat football as what it is. Entertainment. Escape. So pitiful....

We'd like that? Don't you think the team would like that more?

Again, I'm not saying don't be critical, but the depths of misery a certain number of people sink to even after a win is kind of unbelievable.

I would hope so and if not the wrong guy is in charge. Today though effort was terrible and shouldn't happen. As someone pointed out he responded to a dumbass with the same mentality.

Are you , what the hell are you talking a out...I said shut up and play, responding to fans on Twitter is not a good thing. I'm not your son, dog or employee , what makes you think your entitled to give me ****. Why don't you keep your thoughts to yourself. What an immature and ridiculous thing to say on your part.

Curious to see the secondary mix we go for. Buchanon was better than Moseley today but we all know this staff values experience and practices over game ability.

I think you got to go with your best 5 which would be Martin, Foreman, Gaulden, TK and Abernathy. My personal opinion is i prefer Warrior over TK. TK just look like such a liability this year with whatever injury he is fighting through.

Did Martin even play today? I thought he was injured- I didn't get to watch today and thank God. That would have given me a cardiac episode for certain. Now Larry has said in the FF that he would be surprised if JRM can play next week good grief. Make it stop. Meanwhile these other teams seem to coast through with barely a cramp. Butch must have let the team nap this summer during camp and now they can't take the hits. Huge mistake on Butch. This season was supposed to be our turn finally. We fans have been through more than any fan base should ever have to experience.
