How many posters on this board are actively rooting for them to leave? I count at least 3.

I've said before, there are a few folks here that thrive in misery. They grow silent with success but speak up during down times because they want to look like the smartest people in the room.

Attended more games than any responsible student should have.

BS...

Nothing more irritating than the "I'm a better fan because I'm an utter Homer". Second most irritating is the old timer "you internet people don't get it" bit.

Last thing I want to see is more players leave...we've already had almost a dozen OL skip town since No Chin hit town...we don't need any more.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Speak for yourself old man. I like it a lot better when the program is a shitshow so I can go on here and bitch about it.

It was so annoying when they were actually enjoyable to watch and we to hadgo watch championship games in Detroit, etc. I especially hated those trips to Purdue and OSU where we won or at least made them sweat out the games. It's so much nicer now that we can go get boatraced against good teams and we don't have to worry about complaining about officials anymore.

We have people who literally ghost when the team is successful and only seem to show up here to sow discord and chaos, either because of personal antipathy for specific athletic department personnel or because they resent that Bowling Green participates in MAC football, or both.

Most of us want success for this program. I know you are among us, Flipper.

There are posters on here that have agendas and they post away when the results fit their agendas. Shouldn’t be confused with posters who aren’t optimistic about the current coaching staff.
