[QUOTE="beerbuzz, post: 557498, member: 4525"] Sigh. Initially I was perplexed why "hate on" made some so touchy. So many recruits are always using that lingo on twitter. Taylor Swift has a song, on and on. I live in a city with very, very few Tech fans. 99% UGA fans and I always get hated on. This board is one of my outlets to be among brethren, so here goes...... I always coach my employees to be careful how they word emails and encourage them to use their phone, especially in delicate situations. I ALSO coach them to not read too much into incoming emails. Don't assume you understand all the sender's intent. Assume that you are misreading or misinterpreting it. Ask for clarification before going off and creating strife where it doesn't exist. Assume people are generally good. Boards are the same way, especially when people are using mobile devices and can't spend 10 hours crafting a reply/post to make sure no one can possibly be offended. Amongst our brethren, wish we could cut each other some slack and not have to be so careful. I wasn't offended by the post knocking our assistant coaches, just wanted to point out that there were indeed interviews, specifically Suddes, that ran contrary to the derisive comments -- which really weren't derisive, just someone trying to say they aren't buying the hype. Oh well, nothing will change (OK to be a skeptic?). People are going to hate -- I can take it. [/QUOTE]
