Bingo. That board died because it became a giant circle jerk.
Even worse, there were actually posters defending a drunken Blaine taylor making a total ass of himself and the university at the coach's show by saying he just "had a cold".
Some people refuse to look at reality and prefer to always look on the bright side. Am I probably overly negative and pessimistic? Yeah probably. But I've also been right a lot more than I've been wrong.
People questioned my fanhood because I dared to bet against odu when a drunken Blaine taylor was ruining the program. I knew what I was seeing on the court and if I couldn't do a damn thing about it, I decided to do the next best thing.
I'm not betting against Jeff jones because this team isn't totally rudderless like that one was.........but you'd have to be absolutely crazy to bet ON us right now and that's kind of my point.
I bet on Blaines teams multiple times when I felt like we were a sure thing. I may not have been Blaines biggest fan but I recognized when we were good enough to bet on. I also recognized when we were awful enough to bet against.
Right now we aren't good or bad and that's the problem, because that is where we will stay under Jeff jones. You can call that a pessimistic viewpoint if you want, I call it realistic.
If you want to leave the boards because you don't like dissenting opinions then by all means, that is your right to do.
