Parents think we will lose all SEC games this year...

Talking with my parents, (both of whom think DD is a joke), and they said we will lose to every SEC team we play except MAYBE Kentucky.

They claim to be UT fans, but I cannot fathom being that pessimistic about a team and its coach and then saying I was a fan.

I know. I know. Cool Story Bro...

ETA: Also, they say we will lose to NC State too.

Press has made such a big deal over this bray stuff, that coworkers of mine think he is a total head case, and has no shot at all. They think we should start Worley.

They did also mention that the team "has no discipline" and cited Bray as an example.

I know a lot of people who think a good season for the Vols this year=making a bowl. Any bowl. This includes Vols "fans".

Respect your parents. Listen and nod appropriately, then respectfully disagree.

However, when we get rolling and start shocking some people don't forget to remind them of their erroneous predisposition - every chance you get - and the definition do 'bandwagon fan.'

Oh, and buy your Dad the most hideous Vandy hat you can find for $10... And make him wear it after we crush them.
