I'm in a bad mood today.
The next clown that posts something on this board as a fact that is proven to be untrue will receive a lifetime ban.
That means username, computer IPO address and email account.
Ye have all been warned.

Aggie One, the reason you and I take time out of busy schedules and drive across town after work to interview people inside the athletic department is because we're trying to provide readers of this site with accurate information. If not, I could have easily just made up the entire interview with Fobbs last week and saved myself a lot of time and energy. There would have been no reason to bring a tape recorder and then stay up all night the next few days to transcribe that interview.
I'll be damned if I do all that and then let people just come behind me and make up any lie that enters their feeble minds.

I agree with you 100 percent. I mean after we talk directly to the coaches, AD, the Asst. AD and etc. and report their actual verbatim statements and yet some folks still don't want to accept the facts and create their own personal version of the "truth."
It wouldn't be so bad but they plaster that stuff all over the board without substantiating any of it as factual. Making a statement or repeating a rumor in order to find out what is going on about something you might have heard is one thing but out and out bald face lying about people because you have an axe to grind is something totally out of line.
Understood and long overdue.

I really appreciate the great job you guys are doing. Some people don't understand how valuable your time is and how hard you have to work to maintain a site of this nature. I've built a few websites as a hobby and I know what it takes. I still believe the naysayers are impostors and really don't know squat about A&T. They just post here to rattle your cage, but this time they've gone too! Keep up the good work and I wish there was something I could do to help, because I know how much hard work and time is invested into this great site.

Quit kissing their @sses jaybee. They know very well what they provide. I mean without this site it'd be posting on the meac page and arguing with the chickens on the onnidan board.
I don't mind the naysayers (maybe it's because I'm usually one of 'em). I like to read multiple opinions. If this site was all rah rah rah all the time we'd be mindless idiots.
But it's a good requirement to make sure people have their facts straight before they run off at the fingers. It only takes five seconds or so (depending on how fast you type) to type "I think", "I heard", or "in my opinion" yet it makes all the difference in the world sometimes.
Can we make tomorrow "Freakum Dress Friday?"

I had to quit posting on MEACFANS.COM, cause they got some real haters over there. I think Hamptonian and Old Sport hate everybody. And Dooms, you're not a naysayer! I've never read any fictional information written by you.

You know what, I had to temper my posting on meacfans too, but it was mostly because of Cholly and his still stuck in the 1960s mentality. Oldsport actually doesn't bother me much. You know what? At least he's got an opinion. He could find a much better way to express it, but if you pull away all the venom he makes a decent point around 50% of the time. And that's more than a lot of people. Jaybee, I thought a naysayer was somebody that said "it can't be done." Now granted, I usually say "it can't be done unless..." but folks usually stop reading mid-sentence because I'm long-winded. I do try to get my facts straight before I put them out there as fact and even then I'll let it be known that I heard it through the grapevine or I researched it somewhere. As far as zero tolerance Thursday goes, personally if there is a specific person or two that are the problem (which I think is the case) I'd have just pm'd them and left it at that. As far as Freakum Dress Friday goes...  |

Dooms, is Cholly the person from FAMU? I never really read too much of his stuff. And you're right about Oldsport, he's not really that bad! I think he's an attorney, like yourself. He's long-winded as well. You guys must type a 100 wpm! But getting back to the naysayers. You're right, a naysayer is a person that says it can't be done. However, they imagine and make-up negative information to backup their naysayer position. Have you noticed that since Alexander's Dad proclaimed zero tolerance Thursday, they haven't been heard from?
Hey, is that Tyra or Beyonce with the "Freakum Dress Friday" outfit on?
