Dealing with life, Everett. I lost my father at the beginning of last season. His funeral was the evening of the Appy State game. We, of course, brought in a flat screen and streamed the game at the funeral home. After that, I just kinda got jaded. My father was a VFL. Same season tickets for 30 years. He's the reason I bleed orange. Losing the man whom I'd always chat with after games about how our boys played was really pretty hard on me. I didn't even get on here at all for quite some time. But the Vols are a love of mine and I couldn't stay away forever. So I'm trying to renew my love and move forward without my General. Go Big Orange!
Lord, are you really getting crucified for putting something as mundane as "This could be bad" in a post?
RF in full snowflake mode.

Welcome back. I love talking UT Football too. I'm always around these parts. Nobody can ever replace your dad but there's lots of folks here to talk football with.

You smelled blood in the water and launched an IF campaign. Your favorite thing to do. You may be overall optimistic for this team but the possibility of a negative event has you salivating.
Posting something like what he did without hard sure facts is only asking for trouble. Under CBJ, the school has really gone out of its way to do things the right way. You can tell through the immediate and indefinite suspensions when a player screws up until the case is resolved. They found somebody doing something wrong in the AD and they fired him! If the AA has a problem with that then I'll need a bigger tin foil hat. Plus, UT would have had auditors in there with a fine tooth comb to find any wrongdoing that needed to be self reported. To think otherwise is crazy.
Also, he ran with the Jack Jones quitting the team rumor with facts again. He's developing a pattern. He may be getting his info from somewhere else but his source sucks. He should find another source or refrain from posting this sort of crap until he can substantiate his facts.
He's probably a journalism major. He'll fit right in in today's journalism environment and their apparant inability to check facts before releasing them into the wild.
