Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Jack Burton]

this game will be decided in the first 5 minutes.

Yep. Something won’t go our way and half the team will check out.

ESPN reporting AB called the GM a Cracker

AB is a headcase. He's making millions, why is he upset about $50K in fines that were legitimate?

really, really hope not.

 

[Jack Burton]

really, really hope not.

Think about the effort from the last 3 games. Each worse than the last.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

cause it's true?

Racism is funny?

 

[tomq_123]

Heading out in a few hours with my daughter to Knoxville. Can't wait. Any good places downtown or will the UT Book Store be open tomorrow morning for us to get some Vols Swag?

id rather not, but yeah, I know.

would help if we didn't shot ourselves in the foot on the 1st or 2nd play of the game....that'd be a good place to start.

joke.

nevermind. lol.

wait to see if we lose tomorrow probably be able to get dat swag in the trash cans outside the stadium.

I guess it would have been funny if the GM would have called him the "N" word.

 

[bignewt]

Why is that funny?

lighten up francis

yeah, there's two vol shops off campus. one down at the west end of Cumberland next to the wal mart and one at 17th and Cumberland...and of course the one at the student union or whatever they're calling the new building and...yeah, they'll all be open I'm sure.

Not sure about the book store, but there's a store called "nothing too fancy" near market square that has some cool stuff. T- shirts are good, and they used to have some really awesome stickers.

Here's the gift pack being overnighted to him.

Had to study it to make sure my fella actually scored a shirt in all that

im thinking Joe Piscapoe and Eddie Murphy doing Sammy Davis and Sinatra now....lol.

 

[JCLawyerVol]

Yes because we’re front runners. If it’s going bad we’ll quit.

The team must take on the persona of the “fans” if that’s true.

there's been a lot of quitting amongst the fan base this week lol.

Of course not, but us Ole white guys need to be real on this...there’s no word thrown at us that has the same effect of powerlessness and directed hate. You can snarl “cracker” with bile and drool coming out of your mouth...and it’s kinda funny.

 

[SLICKYINC]

ESPN alert: AB issues "issues an emotional apology" at team meeting Friday morning.

[nicksjuzunk]

I’m back... 14-1

UT 31

BYU 17

Jennings will have the boys rolling. He’s taking this team over and cutting out the dead weight. It’s his team now.

Good night man... I thought you were too far gone. Now you’ve got the victory Saturday?

If you want food then go to Stock 'n Barrel or Sweet P's. Downtown Grill & Brewery is good as well.

I think you’ve got that backwards

Nah, it's a double standard. I don't care about what he said actually. I just don't like the double standard of some getting away with racial slurs and others don't. No place for either IMO.

Why is that funny?

If he would have called AB a you know what. He would have lost his job & more than likely would never been able to come out in public.
