My problem with realists is that I have enough in my life I have to be realistic about. Tennessee sports is hobby for me. It's a getaway for me. Some of the realists are dragging me down. While you are being real, I'm gonna enjoy myself and be optimistic about next year. The day I lose that optimism is the day I quit investing my time into the team. It sucks enough to endure losses during the season. I'm not going to drag myself down during the offseason with doom and gloom.

I can appreciate this, truly.

That said, this is a message board for discussion. If you want to just enjoy being a fan and have no negative outlooks a fan message board isn't the place to be. Contrary to popular belief, the fans with negative opinions are just as passionate as those that choose to be positive at all times. "Real" fans all come with different personalities and outlooks.

Yes. I've blown my share of raspberries too I suppose. It's just I feel compelled to call the negative Nancies out on their incessant griping. Of course this causes me to gripe incessantly about their incessant griping. Then they get upset with me for griping about their griping and gripe about that too. It's a vicious cycle.

Vicious cycle, indeed. The good news is we have another spring practice to talk about later on. Or, hopefully talk about.

That's true. I can't wait to see if it gets mentioned. There's lots of good things coming out of the spring practices that we could discuss.

I could pull a double whammy. Having a special younger sister AND losing a mother,father and spouse to cancer. It's easy too see the spirit in which words are used. People use righteous indignation for their own purposes imo.

Your post makes too much sense. Are you ok? 😀

Josh Dobbs was informed this morning he will be a 2017 torchbearer. Apparently the highest honor a UT student can achieve. Congrats.

Hard to find a better representative of UT. He will be missed more than most think.

Must have fallen off the wagon for those two games then. Either that or you're being willfully ignorant.

We obviously had more talent on the field in both of those games. But, for whatever reason (be it poor preparation, coaching, locker room discord, lack of faith in the system/coaches, players not in good enough shape to play all out for 4 quarters, maybe all of the above), we didn't take advantage of it.

The injuries were bad, but not bad enough to excuse those two particular losses.

ZERO. HEALTHY. DEFENSIVE. TACKLES. Vs candy

Why is that so hard for some people to understand??

With that said, imo if we had even a decent secondary coach they don't throw on us at will and we win the game.
