First off I should have known better. I hate these threads so shame on me for posting this. I have had it with the man made weather about Tennessee and the entire Kiffin family. It's been a daily thing since he left. It seems like for awhile it was just the same old story changed ever so slighty for the last 6 months or so. Then they chime in on College Football Live with that "Peyton Manning joined the Dan Patrick show this week to talk about Kiffin". No he was asked about him. He didn't join him to have a Kiffin chat. Then ESPN news is running a story that "Manning is the latest Kiffin detractor" , they get to the story and it's NO story at all. Peyton actually just said it wasn't personal and wished him well. Even if he didn't mean it , he said nothing worthy of a news story.
Then I found this story posted at another site and I don't even think they realise it wasn't actually Monte. When I started this thread , I thought it was him saying the quote. I was wrong about that. But the writer made so many mistakes it makes me wonder what wasn't quoted that should have been. Then he points out at the end how anyone from Tennessee would have to have it read to them. They might with how poorly it was written. Either way , I bought what was said and posted it here. No , he wasn't quoted as saying this , but I'm sure he believes it. Still I made the mistake by posting this. I guess I just had enough of all the negative press.
It's not about us being over what happend. I believe we are. I believe we are sick to f'n death of it all. But it's a 2 way street and even if we never said a word about them this entire time , it would still be on tv everyday. That's how Kiffin works. He needs to be on tv more than ever with the sanctions. They run the same clips of Kiffin and SC over and over again. Like I said before , Lane has said alot more about Tennessee than anyone at Tennessee has. At this point I blame the media. It seems like they are just making up stuff and reaching for a 'story'. Wait what am I saying , they have been feeding this story since it happend.
Mods please delete this thread. I was wrong about the story and wrong for starting this thread. I have not said much about what happend because I didn't want to be part of something that I got so sick of seeing when I came to this site. I posted something that I despised to see posted here by others and for the last time I was WRONG about it. I apologize to everyone here at VN.
