I've already been asked in the break room

[ReVOLver]

If I'm going to call Cuonzo and apologize to him for wanting him fired.

The lady who asked me that wasn't happy with my answer of "Well, if he hadn't had any of the three bad losses to VU and Texas A&M, they'd be catching a reeling UK team in the semis instead of the best team in America so let's not get too happy just yet."

Ok, that made me laugh.

We gonna get em!

Jeesh, we win a SECC early round game against an also-ran and look who comes out of hiding ...

I lurk. From time to time.

I was here the other day talking to Be-the-vol... I was wondering who left the door unlocked.

You know, if they let bammers in here, they'll let anyone in.     By the way, is your youngest still the adventurous type? 

Tell your B-U-T-FUL wife I said, "Hey baby",     um, I mean, "Hi".

And if he had won just one of Xavier, UTEP, or NC State, we'd be safely off the bubble and in the Dance, regardless what happens in today's game.

Well, you can say I have a vested interest here as I actually have met and tailgated with several Vols here many times. I've posted with them for years, and one person I go back as far as about 94 or 95 with on the boards. Besides, most Tide fans are all about the Bama-Auburn rivalry, and second now is probably LSU (until UT beats us),  but I'm a Bama Guy (BG) who loves the Tide-Vol game like no other. It's my favorite rivalry, and I first saw UT play in person when I was only a small kid in 1963 against Auburn in B'ham. I've lived several years in Tennessee, and actually went to some games with my UT friends, and went to Knoxville for the first time in 1972.

I like this board as it's more Disney than gutter talk, and the level is more mature than some sites. That's a compliment to the posters here. My only problem with the board is that there aren't enough posts, and if I can spur some on to post more with my pro-Tide leanings, then that's a good thing, or least it is in my eyes. But if most want me to leave, I will surely do that.

You are one of the (few) semi-rational tide fans I know. I think your comments have been fun and helped pick things back up around here.  Long ago, this place was known for tolerance even of opposing foes.  Over the years it has become less so, and that really is not a good thing IMO.   

 Having said that, I seriously doubt anyone wants you to leave...I would say you have helped liven things up around here, and yes that is a good thing.

Yeah, please read the emoticons while rading my posts.  I clearly put a  after my bammer comment.  I believe the more posts and posters the better (although many may disagree since my recent return).

Yes, I did get your intent, and knew you weren't bashing personally, but this was a good opportunity for me to explain why I post here to some. As you know I love a good debate on the issues, and most any here can give me that. My posts aren't personal slams, just slams maybe on arguments and issues. The fact I get good arguments here (I nearly always learn something new), and the high level of maturity on the board is a draw for me. As I said, that's a compliment to the posters here, and the Crimson Tide-Volunteer rivalry is very special to me. This is an excellent board with insightful posters, and I don't want to negatively effect that or the positive energy here, but just add some good debate and an opposing view on issues for discussion.
