Of course I enjoy it, I’m the one who started bringing receipts, maybe back in ‘22 but really took off during baseball season. Never said otherwise. Just pointing this edition was upon request.

That fact that you enjoy it is also pathetic.

You just don’t get it. Most people on here couldn’t care less about the posts themselves being brought up, in fact I would venture to say close to 100% are enjoying every bit of crow given we won. I know I am.

This issue is the way you do and the manner in which you bring it up that strikes a nerve. It’s you, not what you did, people find annoying. Glad you get enjoyment out of that, I’ll just never understand someone being that way but you do you I guess.

It’s not for everyone. You can block me?

I haven’t blocked anyone on here and never will. I like to discuss and banter with most on here. The others are just train wrecks that provide entertainment.

I’ll let you decide which category you think I I place you in with this discussion.

Doesn’t matter, I like your approach to VN.

Love the receipts.

People spout off emotional outrage whenever we look sloppy - trash like “Heupel sucks”

Crow is served. I know it’s embarrassing for other people to see your drunk texting, but just own it and be better next time.

I don’t want to agree with this, but I kinda do.

However, I don’t think Marco would have gotten near the pushback that he did if he had treated “receipt time” more like returning a few Christmas gifts and less like an IRS audit.

emotions run high and low during games & at the end of the day we are on the same team and a mf'ing family. Those who nega all day every day should look within themselves to ask yourself for the grace to accept that we may just be good again and we may just have the pieces to regain our rightful place atop the throne. Those who sunshine pump all day (ME) should look within themselves to ask yourself for the grace to know it is a long journey out of the darkness and to be patient with all (except the little train). I worked for this program under Dooley, Butch, and briefly he who must not be named. It was dark. I too was nega. But here we are. Light at the end of the tunnel. A real team. A truly good coach. Support system to bring it all together. Best stadium on this planet, best fans on this earth. We are so back.

We just BEAT Florida and Alabama in back to back weekends and the mood should be party party party baby GO BIG ORANGE

let's enjoy our basketball game sunday and not worry about no damn receipts, just love for the orange and our newest elite Barnes player Chaz 🧡

What on earth did you say during the game to motivate all these posts you're making?

Oh, never mind. Be happy.

I don't mind posting it again, this is what Marco quoted from me right before halftime:

Same. These issues won’t get solved over halftime

...with some stupid gif he dug up. I don't care one bit he calls this out. Crow is served, and it never tasted better and it is all in good fun...I'm game for it.

However, it is the way he does it, in a very petty, immature, and disingenuous way that rubs folks the wrong way. While he admitted he enjoyed poking at people, his go to response was always "It was requested" when asked. It's cowardly and pathetic.

I tend to agree with this:

That's all I'm saying, don't really care if you guys get it or not. Have fun with this.

To talk back to people who make game threads intolerable.

*fun

In all seriousness, fair enough. I’m not mad, but it’s just a waste of energy and time in my eyes. We’re all fans and want Tennessee to win, people process emotions and get through games differently. Game threads would be boring if it was all the same tone, the ups and downs make being a fan a fan. It’s one thing to make a dumb thread and then get called out on it (hence my Tim Banks thread from last year, 100% deserve that receipt) but to call out every reactionary post in a game thread is absurd and a waste of energy personally. But yall do you, have a laugh, so will I.

L. It’s a game thread. It’s supposed to be reactionary. It would be a pointless thread otherwise. Receipts are for dumb **** said outside of game threads. I don’t care to be quoted as its hilarious to watch a dude talk to himself for 10 posts in a row

Some of those quotes are stupid reactions. It’s not like all of us are new to this and understand it’s a 60 minute game.

I'm still in disbelief. These heart attack kids just play their faces off. It aint pretty. Man, Nico is a winner. Love to see him work through the injury, bad passes, and turnovers to grit it out.

Man in two years he's going to be very very good.

If you had told me this team would hold Bama under 100 yards rushing, Milroe under 20, and pull win off after two missed FG's and 3 TO's?! Nuts!

Went back and watch the first half and last five sequences. Some of y'all clowning on Nico, his misses werent near as bad as some made them.

We moved the ball in the first half. Two turnovers inside the 20 and a missed FG.

It’s one thing to be reactionary about the game, hence, a game thread. But we have people wanting coaches fired, saying we will lose to UK and Vandy, saying Nico is the worst QB in the conference and the coaches failed. Those takes are ridiculous.
