Our anger is what continues to feed the fire that keeps the flames of #FreeUAB alive. Let the committee members be the ones with the cool heads and calm temperaments as they do the work that will bring this crusade to a holy conclusion.

It's up to them to put aside the anger & work this out w/o bias, I can as John Q Public vent, cuss, fuss, sling poo all I want at whoever I want. The statement makes me wonder if they were passed words to the effect of call the dogs off us or else

I remember a line uttered by actor Fred Williamson in a low budget movie he was in..."Focus that anger!!! Control it...You will soon learn the power of victory!!!" So far, that is exactly what I've seen on display since the pumpkin-head imprudently eliminated some of our sports teams and put Gene Bartow's entire athletic legacy in peril, and he has not once said he was sorry for what he did, only that he has some regrets...I'll bet Charles Manson has some "regrets", too.

Focus on the report, yes, but don't let your guard down for even an instant. Watts & the bot have to go, and throwing Molotov Cocktails won't do the trick. I honestly feel we have leverage on our side for a change, and we should use it to its' fullest extent. They've already shown that they were willing to scorch the earth with us if given the chance, so, let's take the same resolve and energy to Montgomery in March, there are some "extremists" that want us to get into a territorial pi**ing contest with them and distract us from what can be accomplished if he hold the line. I came away from that Task Force Meeting Tuesday night feeling pretty good about what lies ahead, screw those "Tammies" out there, and by all means, stand your ground if need be, but if at all possible, don't give these (bleep) holes the satisfaction. They're desperate now, they know that the other shoe is about to drop...What "Courtside" said in his post speaks huge volumes about this situation. Embrace that anger, don't diminish it, use it for the greater good here. I had someone in a car parked behind me at a traffic light give me a thumbs up signal and applause from behind the wheel of his car after reading the FreeUAB paraphernalia in the rear of my auto yesterday afternoon. He had UA stuff on his vehicle, he wasn't being sarcastic, IMO, he was letting me know he was with UAB. Let's make sure we finish strong, for ourselves, for future generations of Blazers (and Chargers!), for the ones that have come and gone...For Gene Bartow...So many are counting on us now, and as 03-pissed as I still am to this day, I have to remember that as events continue to unfold...

Truth.

Want to send someone irritated into a flying rage? Tell them to calm down.

When Frank made the statement he did at the UABATF meeting I believe he was saying: "Focus that anger!!! Control it...You will soon learn the power of victory!!!" Controlled anger, focused on a goal with a target in sight, is a powerful tool. Rage, on the other hand, is like a spewed out soda. It gets everyone's attention for a few seconds, then people just start wiping off the mess.

Every Faithful!
