Respectful Reminder From A UAB Fan...
Good afternoon, Mountain West Fans! I remember a while back when the idea of the MWC and Conference USA were considering becoming a united front. I was looking forward to that...Anyway, being a UAB sports fan and in lieu of the 12/2 occurrence of the termination of our football program, I have endeavored to share some encouragement to all of you here, to support your favorite programs with unbridled passion and unweilding zeal. Get to know everyone that has been entrusted to govern your programs and let them get to know you, because what happened to us at UAB at the hands of those entrusted to carry on the legacy of Gene Bartow were nothing more than wolves in sheep's clothing, and they have hurt our school and city real bad by terminating our football program, especially under the circumstances in which it happened. We have learned a very hard lesson here in Birmingham and I don't want to see what happened to us happen to any school. I'm posting a link that suggests that UAB may not be the only school in some bureaucrat's crosshairs in the future. Support your teams, and keep a vigil on your athletic departments. Keeping a good thought for the Mountain West...Good luck to all in your upcoming bowl games.

Matrix, Thanks for the post. Some MW schools do have their challenges in a way like UAB but not to the extent with the BOT. I sure do hope the MW fans at support their schools, because the MW has great potential to suceed very well with the amount of land grant institutions and growth of the western mountain states.
Regards,

"Tex" thank you and I couldn't agree more, I enjoy watching MW Football & Basketball games, the spirit of the games is there, to me, that garners more respect and patronage than our myopic sports media's willing to acknowledge. Regards in kind...
