[QUOTE="jojatk, post: 823908, member: 2627"] I wish you were right about that. But I fear you are not. People are always looking for reasons to complain and vent and be offended about things. If we win they’ll doubtless find something else to be upset, offended, or angry about with respect to our program. As far back as I can remember in my GT fanhood (1984, not as long ago as many others but still a fair amount of time) people have always, always, always found some axe to grind… if it’s not the play on the field it’s the uniforms. If it’s not the uniforms it’s what the band plays. If it’s not what the band is playing it’s the fans on the other side of the stadium. If it’s not that then it’s what is being served at the concession stands in the stadium or the lack of some key piece of clothing that fan X wants to buy but isn’t offered. There will always be something. People love their rightness too much to give it up. Of course that’s not true about everyone. And it isn’t even about the folks who are complaining now. They aren’t any worse or better than those who complained from day 1 of CPJ or CCG or Big Bee or any other coach. There just will always be a vocal group who have nothing but vitriol to spew. Hopefully those of us who try to be positive can drown them out and will have ample reason to do so. [/QUOTE]
