Carl -stop being a

[Skiblets]

You're clearly a huge fan but calling out a parent on here was very douchey. Crossed a line there.

I want to send a message out to Puppy: tell Lyle to keep fighting the good fight and keep working hard. A great many of UConnNation are pulling for him, and we're wishing him the very best! I hope he breaks his single-game record of 160+ yards against Louisville, and I'll be there with you cheering him on!!!

If there was ever a thread that deserved a +1 many times over, this is it.

We can bash each other, good naturedly or not, all we want but the kids and their families are off limits.

Really? I called out a parent? I'm pretty sure if that person really is a parent, they just tried to pick a fight with me, over things I"ve written. BTW: I haven't 'called out a parent" for anything, I've been talking about players, and not just a player that I've singled out, a player that was benched by the current head coach for showboating.

If I have broken some rule or law, with the things I write, the moderators of this board need to let me know ASAP. I would like some feedback here.

I have not written anything fabricated, other than what amounts to my own opinon. On Saturday, I was watching the game in my living room, I had a former roomate from UCONN that was in Orlando at the game, and I received messages from friends all around the country. I'll add now that feedback included both uconn general student alumni, and uconn football alumni, and other sports uconn alumni, and we all concurred in our opinions of this team, and specific players, at the time, the summation of which I've put here in my own words.

I do think it's really time that I stop writing around here though, I think it's pretty sad, that so few people, really get what I'm talking about.

Carl, you and the Alum are wrong. Plain and simple.

No bad feelings..

Bye, and tell HuskyFanDan we said hello. Many times when you believe you're surrounded by as, you may in fact be the a.

Not where I hang out before games. I've been a coach in sports for many years at every level you can imagine. I have been involved with sports as a player, coaching, administration, evaluation, for my entire life. Parents, by far, are the worst part of athletics. I'm sorry if your feelings are hurt by the things I've written, if you are who you say you are. I really am, but I think maybe you need to realize that opinions are just opinions and everyone's got one. It's a cultural thing that players shoudlb e off limits for criticism here, and clearly, people are uncomfortable with this kind of criticism. Maybe, just maybe, I've lit a fire bright enough somewhere, that we'll actually play hard enough, long enough and disciplined enough to win a ****** game.

So - thanks for the offer - but no thanks, you think I'm dumb enough to walk into an ambush?

Wow. You get asked to stop being a and you decide to go all in.

What is your problem???

 

[CTMike]

For the sake of all involved this thread should probably be locked. And burned.

 

[PUPPY4]

Coach Carl, ???

Really, ambush??
Obviously your mouth is writting checks your arse can't cash.
The peace offering still stands though.

I'm pretty sure they've been deleted. Much like this soon to be ex-thread.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Okay, I was just curious because of the other posts by Carl about showboating I tended to agree with his thoughts.

I deleted the thread. It was Summer's Eve quality posting
