It is good to be a Vol

Keeping it real with expectations of 7-5 or 8-4 is our ceiling for 2019.

Although, I'm looking forward to about a month prior to kickoff and the season outlook/prediction threads begin to appear with multiple posts of 10-2 or 11-1.

Yea, I didn't mean that as mocking you, just obviously you know even those that predict 10-2 or 11-1 think that's realistic.

So, y'all are saying poo flingers are "true fans" who're just poo flingers - Have I got that right?

I’ll take a stab at it though. After watching the debacle that was last year, filled with the total inconsistency, I have no reason to feel any sort of comfort with the football team. That doesn’t make me a poo flinger, or only a partial fan. It means we sucked last year, like we have for the better part of the last decade. I need on field productivity before I start to change those feelings.

For the 1st time in just over 10 years, I truly feel like the Volunteers as an athletic program has truly turned a corner for the best. Basketball speaks for itself, with possibly the most fun we've had as a fan base that we've ever had. But it truly feels like the football program is firmly on an uptrend, as opposed to where we were prior to Fulmer's firing. Fulmer's time had come, but I honestly never felt as positive about the future of the football program as I have the past month alone. And this says a lot considering the 5-7 season we had. Recruiting and the hires we've made have given new life and confidence to the program.

It's good to be a Vol. And it's only going to get better.
It’s great to be a Vol!

Peruse the thread, then surmise as to a theme within the thread. Up to this point, I'm reading an argument that those who express excremental opinions of the Vols football are not disassociated from "true Vols fans," they're just "true Vols fans" who happen to be talking shyte about their team. In the above post, I am asking for one of the advocates to affirm my understanding.

And that's fine, no one should have a problem with that, I don't. What I don't understand about it is, if that's the way you feel then what's left to discuss, why stick around and remind everyone everyday many times that you think we suck and you ain't changing your feelings until something changes? There are several that say/feel the same way and it just seems they just want to bish.

Just to be clear, that doesn't really pertain to you because you're not in the FF whining all the time.

Not an awful question, but ask the reverse question. Why post thread after thread about how you think things are looking up and belittling anyone that questions some belief that we’re magically going to be SEC contenders next year?

Yes. Are you among those who argue that the CAT Fivers are "true Vols fans" who just like to fling it?

There are some that do...some that don't. Then there are those who just don't give damn and stir it up. That I'm not in agreement with. However, that doesn't change their status level of a fan.

Everyone that's still here since 2008 are all true Vols fans.

That sounds horrible. Haha.

I don't know William, it ain't ever gonna change and it probably shouldn't, we can't all agree on everything. But, I answered your question best I could. I joke around and stir the pot sometimes about this subject, but I know it is what it is.
 
You know, I don't disagree with the op so much except ill need to see proof that the football program has turned a corner. Not sure why that is such an unreasonable position.

Where did you say that and someone responded with that being unreasonable?
