Not what I meant. I served my country too. I'm talking about the people on these boards that talk like we ought to just give up on playing Alabama. Sure, we're big underdogs but I say we take the fight to them and win the game.Gonna take issue with you there. Many of these fans, me included, embodied the proud reputation of the Volunteer State, and took their place on our front lines.
And a bunch of them never came home. Their sons, daughters, spouses, brothers, uncles, etc. are some of "these fans".
Maybe you did as well. If you did, you should know better than to toss that line of crap out here. And if you didn't, then you have no place...or right...to invoke the memories of a tradition you had no part in.
JMO. Flame away.
I just watched the Dooley press conferance, Is it me or did he looked whipped? It seemed like he was about to break down a couple of times.

Yeah, I back-checked your posts after I responded. Navy. '65-69. Depending on where you were, that might have been a rough ride.
Son in the Air Force. Good for him.
Navy here. '80-'00.
I'm still pissed about what you said, but I'll get over it.
Go Vols.
Heman Lathers and AJ Johnson were apparently behind the hole thing and the theme was either piss or get off the pot, basically if you don't want to compete for this team then move down to the scout because they are tired of loosing. So this made me thinking either you are in or you are out as a vol fan where do you stand you can't be going back and forth you have to be all in and GO VOLS lets kick bammas ASS.:rock:
Yall are ridiculous. Dooley has done some good things here. He just hasn't done great things yet. Let.s see. So far this year we have lost because of terrible play calling by cheney(florida game). A first year 3-4 defense with personnel that does not fit the style. SOme special teams mis hap. It's a combonation of a lot. Stop acting like he's terrible. It's not all his fault. I know he's the head coach and it all falls on him but look at how it fell. Even if you do not support Dooley, which if you are a true fan you will support whoever the coach is until they are not coach anymore, but stop being so negative. Back our team, our program, and our coach. We can still have a couple great wins this year. Have FAITH!!! Go VOLS!!!
Here comes the true fan thing again. Listen dude, most of the people on this board that are sick of Dooley will be rooting like hell for Tennessee Sat night. Just because you don't support the current staff doesn't necessarily mean you want the team to lose. If they win Sat night it will silence a lot of his critics because he has finally proven something.

True but time and time again I've watched so many people walk out of that stadium and give up on the team during the game. Many times we've gotten back in the game or even came back and won. I just wonder how much harder the team would fight to make just one more play that could turn around the game if the people who call them selves fans stayed and supporter their team.
I'm sure those of you who have or will likely walk out the next time were behind in the 3rd or 4th quarter will make plenty of excuses here in this thread but ultimately you sound like quitters to me.

Cupcake has had plenty of chances. Hell, we've lowered our expectations of this once great program for him to show us ANYTHING. He hasn't.
And I don't want to hear a damn thing from this team either...I've seen them quit too many times to feel sorry for their feelings. Again, too many great people gave it their all here for that chicken**** to slide through.
It's time to blow this pansy operation up and get a real coach in here, they've had plenty of chances.
