To a booster...
Heard some disturbing news today. This was from a friend who's daughter plays on the web school basketball team. Currie's daughter plays on the same team. The daughter came to school distraught. Come to find out they've received death threats. They now have police escorts wherever they go. I know this is not unique to our fan base but people need to take a step back. They're dumbasses and the cause for some of our reputation.

First off, screw Schiano.
But when it comes to the perception that the media hates Tennessee, i implore to make sure you arent suffering from the base rate cognitive fallacy.
Basically, when we assume someone is bias, we dont always take into account our own bias.
Example
Ill read less negative media about LSU because I dont actively search for media about LSU. When i do read negative media about LSU, it impacts me less and i remember it less because Im not emotionally invested in LSU.
The converse is true for UT. I search more and care more, so Ill believe that there is more negative media for UT, even if LSU has an equal amount or more.
My process is less complicated. I simply listen to what people say and if 50 out of 50 commentators are very critical of UT and have nothing positive to say, I make a logical conclusion-- they do not think highly of UT.
I haven't heard one single ESPN or SECN announcer or commentator support UT since Sunday. Not one, across all shows and live events. Now if they're indecisive, my bias would definitely come into play. But they're overwhelmingly against UT on this issue and the disdain is real.
Correction: I believe Barrett Sallee may have shown some support. But I didn't hear that firsthand.
