Posted Saturday November 17, 2007, About: Latest rumors on Nutt's future
Having lived in AR until last year and seeing the situation up close as a season ticket holder for the past eight years, I can say there is enough blame to go around for everyone here: Nutt, UofA, Malzahn, Mustain, and fans. Comments about Nutt's arrogance are right on, but Spurrier has the same trait and has been praised for it. UofA needs to compete on the national level in football again before having delusions of attaining a BCS championship. Track and field championships are great, but the recent scandal there also taints a good program. Malzahn needed to remember he was NOT the head coach as he was at Springdale and defer to Nutt and keep disagreements BEHIND CLOSED DOORS, not on display on the sidelines. Mustain needed to grow up and maybe he will at USC, but before he came to UofA, he essentially held the state "hostage" waiting to see where he would play. The "Springdale Five" got a lot of press for a bunch of high school players who haven't proved to be as spectacular as their "press" would lead one to believe. As for Arkansas fans, get over old SWC days. Your school is in the SEC now and to compete you need to be able to recruit better. There are some fine facilities in Fayetteville and the city itself is in a beautiful part of the country. Maybe now that Broyles is finally going to pass the torch, maybe the school...and the state...can enter the 21st century, stop reminiscing about the "old glory days" and build something for the future. However, the gaining of Nutt's cell phone records was a bush league move and a low point for Arkansas fans and the state. Good luck finding a coach willing to come there knowing what the best coach UofA has had in the past 25 years had to deal with while there.
Posted Wednesday October 31, 2007, About: Will Brady pay for running up score?
As a Yankees fan who has spent years listening to Sox fans whine about the Yankees, I only have this to say. This post epitomizes all of the bad points Sox fans used to attempt to lay at the feet of Yankees fans. Personally, I don't care if the Pats run up the score; it's football. The idea is to have the defense stop the offense and the offense to score on the defense. Seems the Pats are doing that; it's nice to see the Boston area fans emulating us Yankee fans!

"Is this what the NFL has come to --- everyone complaining that the Patriots will beat them too badly? I love it. Why not have the league wave the white flag now; give the Pats the superbowl trophy; and we can start up baseball again.

Folks, your whining and complaining is the highest compliment you could pay Brady, Coach B, the Patriot team, and us Pats fans --- keep the barbs , the hate, the jealously, and the criticism coming - it is the fuel that powers the Patriots engine this season.

Go Pats - continue scoring 50 a game all season. we are loving it in New England."
