When we become a legit threat.

Yeah, I'm gulping the koolaid tonight. Feels like a huge win.

What does? Please expound...

Sorry, the news from the ATF meeting tonight.

The fact that the place was packed.
That we already have $6 million pledged in 2 weeks
That Jimmy Filler has a big announcement planned for May 15
The talks of any money over and above what is needed going towards world class facilities.
The words, "Football will be back"

It felt like things actually moved in our favor tonight.

Is Ray Watts still president?

I know, I know.

I readily admitted I was drinking the koolaid. It was a pep rally for the #FreeUAB cause tonight. And it worked.

They already are.

Jumping through every hoop and still getting screwed remains a real possibility.

That's not exactly breaking news.

With the level of national attention this has already gotten, I think it would be tougher this time to pull the plug like they've done in the past.

Really? Like they care about some bad publicity.

Aren't you a ray of condescending snarky sunshine tonight.

Good god. Lighten up. Always attacking.

You could definitely feel a shift in the tone from those typically in the know. Very positive vibes tonight.

Not sure "they" are going to be sorry. Since "they" are mostly PR mercenaries, the more savage the beating we give Ray, the more of our money they take.

But as for Ray? We are going to break Ray.

Overheard earlier tonight....my sister to her boyfriend........AGAIN?? I THOUGHT THE DECISION HAD BEEN MADE AND ALL OF THAT WAS OVER WITH.
I PROMPTLY DELIVERED A RENDITION OF "BLAZER VICTORY!
EVER FAITHFUL,EVER LOYAL!

I think it's more than just bad publicity if they pull a stunt like they did with the OCS again.
