Many of You All Are A National Embarassment

[UneducatedGuess]

It’s embarrassing when you realize you’re grown adults reacting this way. It’s like watching a toddler throw a tantrum.

You embarrass me as a fan with your overreacting.

Show some patience, self control, and loyalty. If you’ve been around the game of football very long then you’ll know there are ups and downs in the course of a game.

Show some maturity and send these threads as texts to a friend versus making our fanbase an absolute joke.

I’m not talking to the majority here, but I’m certainly talking to the screaming children on here.

Grow. Up.

Looks like some screenshots from Volquest? But yeah the game thread on here was brutal last night as usual.

They do this on every team. Bama boards were in full melt down yesterday. Georgia had their share yesterday too.


Fans post in the moment. I have no issues venting here.

That is some funny stuff on that board. Thankfully it's not just Vols that melt down. The old miss crowd is mean. lol

I love how some of our own fans think it’s just us that vent on message boards lol. Message boards are for discussion, good or bad. They are for the fans and by the fans.

It's a message board meant for venting good or bad... Grow up yourself.... Messages boards are where woke goes to die!!!!

 

[Col_Cathcart]

Honestly, if that’s the most embarrassing they could find from the game thread yesterday, I’m pretty surprised. That’s pretty tame.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Almost like the game thread is meant for shouting into the void.

Amen. Some of these people have the emotional maturity of a toddler. They quit at the first sign of trouble.

Fan is short for Fanatic
a person who is extremely interested in something, to a degree that some people find unreasonable: a fitness/sports fanatic. disapproving. a person who has very extreme beliefs that may lead them to behave in unreasonable or violent ways: religious fanatics.

First sign, or endless signs?

 

[NighthawkVol]

Considering we won, it’s hard to call them endless, but it was big of you to self-identify.

That's why this place exists. The funny part is the holier-than-thou types that laugh at this will turn around and melt down hard over politics or their favorite bad TV show getting cancelled.

I don’t understand fans like the ones from the screenshot. If you’re that upset, why continue watching and following the team? Find something enjoyable to do instead.

How does what another person does with their time affect anyone else tho?

What's with all the " you can't criticize our team/players on a message board "? We're not allowed to criticize a team that seems to never be prepared on Saturday? or bad coaching , predictable play calling ? Maybe we should just play Kent St every weekend?

They all get paid now, too. They wanted the good side of the big boy treatment, they get the flip side too.

It was just an observation. I don’t understand it, especially when you have no control over it.

Just because a team wins doesn't mean they played well. If you think Tenn played well yesterday, then more power to you. I guess you thought the same with the Arkansas game as well.

All fan bases are like this.
At least all of them that play major college football or basketball at a high level.
People spend a lot of money with donations, travel, tickets, concessions, apparel, etc. They expect a return on investment.
I actually think that most Vol fans (maybe not those on message boards) have been extremely patient with all of the administrative and coaching failures that we have had in the 2000’s.
As for this season, our coaching staff and local media oversold how good our offense would be and they undersold how good our defense would be. Thus, our fan base is very frustrated and confused.

So you watch the game without making any commentary, and speak to no one during or afterwards about the team's performance?

If so, then you're probably the odd man out here.

My favorite is how little the people complaining about coaching know about football.

When we intentionally took the delay of game penalty on 4th down after trying to draw them offsides, we had people complaining about coaching because they 0 understanding of what was going on
