Gee I hope the UofM can survive without the support of a handful of weirdo political activists who stopped being fans forever (though have not stopped posting for some reason) because of a sticker that every sports team in America was wearing for a few months several years ago.

FOR WHATEVER REASON --You can't be serious -how old are you-- some people are not LEMMINGS/SHEEP

There is a saying "you have to stand for something or you will fall for anything"-or something like that

There are things going on in this country--FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN SPORTS

$5 tickets because everyone has the right to go to every game, not just the rich. 80,000 seats so tickets are just about free because everyone has the right to go to the game, not just the rich. The #80 team in the country deserves to play the #60 team in the country at home in the playoff while the #12 team sits at home, because a team that clearly can't make it on its own merits, and contributes ZERO in revenues, deserves a chance because everyone deserves a trophy.

You are a socialist/communist, woke, inclusive, affirmative action zealot, who seems to think he is a conservative. That is what you stand for.

There is my STALKER--the guy who follows me around and spews lies that he knows are lies --just to incite---the guy that admitted with his post to bluebacker-- that he sold out/compromised his convictions --put his head in the sand --and tried to justify the actions of a woke university/woke coach/woke university president-------------------it mattered not to you or the university --that they alienated thousands of fans ------the coach even made a statement at the time saying something like "if people dont like the stickers then they can leave " or something close to that

Quote:the guy that admitted with his post to bluebacker-- that he sold out/compromised his convictions --put his head in the sand --and tried to justify the actions of a woke university/woke coach/woke university president

It would be asking too much at your age to ask you to learn how to read. I clearly stated my exact position on BLM, the players wanting the decals, and Rudd and Silverfield actually have virtually the exact same position that I do.

Stalker? You post about me all the time when I'm not even involved in the threads. You are the woke, socialist who thinks he is a conservative. Everything I have said about you is true, verifiable with the thousands of almost identical gibberish you post.

Good one Karl.

Again my STALKER --trying his best to get us banned--so the players got to alienate 1/2 the fanbase/the players got to pick the head coach---the inmates running the asylum----you would have thought the ADULTS in the room would have thought better of alienating half the fans

I post NOTHING/ZERO/NADA about you that is untrue-- I quote your own words ---I understand however because of how idiotic and inaccurate your posts are --that you might be embarrassed by your own track record knowing that everybody knows who I am quoting-because we all know that you bat below the Mendoza line---------but you post NOTHING/ZERO/NADA about me that is true---and you only do it to inflame and incite me and others that you do the same

Reach back out to our good ole buddies at BLM. Maybe we can name the concessions stands after them for $20M. Go all in!

People are throwing money at BLM on the sentiment of its name - not what the organization actually does or stands for. It's a money-funnel for the far Left and far Left anti-American, anti-family, Marxist, Socialist agendas. But they are good at picking a name that cleverly disguises what they are all about.

As long as those stickers and slogans are around I won't donate, attend, or otherwise support Memphis athletics.

Quote:People are throwing money at BLM on the sentiment of its name - not what the organization actually does or stands for.

Exactly true and what some of our psycho fans STILL don't seem to understand. Our players aren't anti American, Marxists or socialists. They are kids that have experienced racism and who have seen their families and friends experience entrenched racism over the course of decades.

When the kids decided that they wanted the decals, Silverfield and Rudd went with it, with Silverfield and Rudd both taking the time to explain exactly why the kids wanted it and why the university did it.

So while I despise virtually everything that BLM represents; at the time the decision was made, I am 100% confident that the players chose to wear the decals for reasons that are a pure (and almost non existent) part of BLM.

Well put. And even if a 20-year-old African-American Tiger student-athlete/fine young man is a Socialist — so what. I'm a 59-year-old white man who is a capitalist and has voted for Libertarians, Republicans, Democrats and Independents. I respect the rights of any decent and productive American to hold her/his political, social and religious views.

The Black Tigers players have had a vastly different experience than I. And I want to be understanding of that. I don't fully understand the BLM dynamic but I at least try.

Life is complicated. There are too many shades of gray to be close-minded and unwilling to compromise and say "Perhaps I need to look at this issue differently."

I agree with shades of everything said by all of you. Well, other than it being Silverfield and Rudd. BLM stickers were decided in 2020, after Veatch took over as AD in Oct 2019.

BLM is a marxist, socialist entity battling for power. They have done so on the backs of mostly good people. They've preyed on the weaknesses of many. I will NOT support BLM or any entity that does support BLM.

I've supported this football program when others wouldn't, including our AD. I didn't think I would ever stop going to games and supporting this team financially. My family and friends are shocked, but I have not attended since BLM stickers began. I have not given a dime to the university since. Laird Veatch from Kansas and Ryan Silvertongue from Florida do not understand Memphis. Memphis athletics is the most pure uniting force this city has. They've tainted the program and turned the stomach of many.

It's completely sad and disgusting. We FINALLY built a program! Only to cut the fanbase in half.

Life is complicated. Choose your priorities wisely.

MEMPHIS - both the city and the university - are larger than our AD and football coach. They smacked the program in the mouth. But the tides will turn. I'm still a Memphis grad. I still love my fellow Tigers. I simply will not support these clowns running our football program.

I am a capitalist and would like to see tax on earned income abolished — as I feel such tax disincentivizes productivity and work. I also am strongly pro-police and pro-military (my father served). But I'm hugely pro-environment (as I feel man is causing, at least in part, climate change) and pro-gay marriage (among other progressive ideals).

I've read a bit about the BLM movement and its leaders strongly concern me related to the type America they want (in terms of economic structure, abolishing police forces, etc.).

I simply make a distinction between the young Black Tiger players and the BLM hierarchy.

As to Silverfield and Veatch, you clearly follow the program far more closely than I do (I live in Nashville and follow the Tigers, in large part, for my father, who is 91 and appreciates the info I give him). In short, I'm out of the loop.

I respect you as a poster. You seem fair and reasonable.

04-cheers

RE: Tiger Nation: Time to step up with $$ and support
BLM is long gone. It was an ill-advised request from some 20 year-olds looking for something simple and impactful to express their feelings. And it was a knee jerk to allow it from the grown ups who should have known better, but were caught up in the moment like many were, and were fearful of what would happen if they didn't. They all came to their senses a few months later and replaced BLM.

I see no reason to continue to hold this against the university. (Unless you're really an Old Miss fan like that 1 poster is.)

Yep. That's how I took it all along. The leadership screwed up in allowing it due to the extraordinary circumstances at the time (civil unrest, global pandemic, constantly changing guidelines, etc.). They needed to do whatever they could to keep the team together. Then they refocused the intent of the team's feelings and moved forward with the new sticker/patch. How many times have you screwed up something at work or in your life and had a chance to fall back, reassess, and move on without a perpetual penalty? It's called a second chance, and they should be allowed to have one too. I guess all these "sticker shock" fans don't believe in second chances after the original error has been addressed. They must be perfect in everything they do the first time....

Did I miss something? Did the university/Veatch/Silverspoon put out some sort of apology/recant/etc?

There are some weirdos here who are not Memphis Tiger fans at all but rather are some sort of ranting looney political activists. They make up a lot of baloney about why they aren't Memphis Tiger fans, but the truth is that they were never real Memphis Tiger fans and they are a disgrace to the Rex Dockery Larry Finch Memorial Tiger Sports Forum (notice is not called the Looney-Tunes Political Ranting Forum for Non-Memphis Tiger Fans).

I always appreciate your input and perspective.
But let's think about that.
How could they possibly apologize or admit they should not have been associated with that organization, without causing a major controversy?
They did come out multiple times and say that their support was in the concept that black lives do matter, rather than support of that organization.

" A major controversy"??They had already caused one ..how do they admit being wrong ? They own up to it--they mend the fences in the community and 1/2 the fanbase -they cut their losses --thats how !!!- but they refused to say ALL LIVES MATTER or WHITE LIVES MATTER--that would have been racist huh-- ...where was that statement or those stickers

You keep saying 1/2 the fanbase. Is this officially part of your weird fantasy world or do you have any proof to back it up?

There is a saying "you have to stand for something or you will fall for anything"-or something like that

There are things going on in this country--FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN SPORTS

$5 tickets because everyone has the right to go to every game, not just the rich. 80,000 seats so tickets are just about free because everyone has the right to go to the game, not just the rich. The #80 team in the country deserves to play the #60 team in the country at home in the playoff while the #12 team sits at home, because a team that clearly can't make it on its own merits, and contributes ZERO in revenues, deserves a chance because everyone deserves a trophy.

You are a socialist/communist, woke, inclusive, affirmative action zealot, who seems to think he is a conservative. That is what you stand for.

Quote:the guy that admitted with his post to bluebacker-- that he sold out/compromised his convictions --put his head in the sand --and tried to justify the actions of a woke university/woke coach/woke university president

It would be asking too much at your age to ask you to learn how to read. I clearly stated my exact position on BLM, the players wanting the decals, and Rudd and Silverfield actually have virtually the exact same position that I do.

Stalker? You post about me all the time when I'm not even involved in the threads. You are the woke, socialist who thinks he is a conservative. Everything I have said about you is true, verifiable with the thousands of almost identical gibberish you post.

Good one Karl.

Again my STALKER --trying his best to get us banned--so the players got to alienate 1/2 the fanbase/the players got to pick the head coach---the inmates running the asylum----you would have thought the ADULTS in the room would have thought better of alienating half the fans

I post NOTHING/ZERO/NADA about you that is untrue-- I quote your own words ---I understand however because of how idiotic and inaccurate your posts are --that you might be embarrassed by your own track record knowing that everybody knows who I am quoting-because we all know that you bat below the Mendoza line---------but you post NOTHING/ZERO/NADA about me that is true---and you only do it to inflame and incite me and others that you do the same

Quote:so the players got to alienate 1/2 the fanbase

Still nothing to back up this fantasy. 04-drinky

Everything I've said about you is true. You DID say that a 6-6 MAC team cough...cough...deserves to host a playoff game against the #2 team in the country, because the #2 team in the country has to win all of their games or tough luck. In your bizarro world, in a 16 team playoff, the #12 team would be sitting at home, but the #80 team would be hosting a playoff game.

The pure definition of communism, Karl. Keep up the good work.

I've pegged him about this before. Like everything else, he has no answer or proof, and just parrots his usual drivel.... 04-chairshot

I wish that too but the Marxist Left Democrats started it by politcizing all forms of entertainment. Sports was the last entertainment domino to fall but you can't go to or watch a game without getting a BLM / Racism (anti- white of course since white people are the only racist race...) / Abortion 'rights' / Transgender rights lecture from the announcers and with slogans and banners and flags on or around the field of play then you can't expect that there won't be an equal number of people that have a different opinion about the real agenda behind many of these types of movements.

I would be really happy to leave all the political social agenda bs at the door for all forms if entertainment but the Left won't let that happen. So, don't complain when people push back on the bull****.

Player intentions aside, what if some group starting flying Nazi flags and using the Swastika symbol for their cause because they didn't know and didn't bother to research the history. Then after a couple of years it just sort of faded a little but they never appologized for it? In this day and age people should be held accountable for the causes and organizations that they donate to and lend their voice to.
