Good luck to the Lady Vols upcoming Road trip

[jsloanjr]

I Wish them well and hope their team is for real this season. They look like a fun team to watch. There 3 game road trip will tell us very soon.

I too wish the Lady Vols luck..........Except when they play UConn. I think they are perhaps the 3rd best team
in the SEC. Behind Miss. St. and USC east. This SEC season will reveal who/what they are. I don't hate them , or do I root for them. I am neutral.

Until they play the Huskies. Then I get vocal and very opinionated.

GO HUSKIES!!

 

[Centerstream]

I am curious. Do Husky fans go to other team's boards and post good luck wishes for Husky games? I know that I have the option to ignore certain threads (like this one) but it just made me curious...

Well I hope they go 0-3 and are brutally humiliated. And then the season goes downhill from there.

couldn't happen to a better program

I will be going to Sundays game at Long Beach State, wearing my UConn hat, and rooting for the school whose baseball team is called The Dirtbags.

 

[WiseOne]

I’m pretty sure the Vol fans aren’t wishing UCONN luck on any trip! Good gesture by you! Anywhooooooooooo...next subject!

Ah! Good sportsmanship in the true spirit of the Boneyard!

A decade ago the Vols took their ball and went home, spreading scurrilous lies and innuendos in their wake. They are dead to me and I spit on their grave. Have a nice road trip! Sheeesh!!

Well I wouldn't even waste my time going to the cemetery to find their grave. And even if I happened to stumble upon it, wouldn't be spit.

I will interested in hearing your report on the game.

Some teams need luck, other's do not.

I don't.........

 

[dogged1]

Two kinds of fans. Those who forgive and forget. And those who carry a grudge to the grave.
I think we just took a census.

 

[buddy]

I like grudge to the grave. Tenn and Vandy can both burn. Two evils. They are as bad as BC and Cuse.

I suspect that a lot of this - the difference in attitude towards L'Orange souris - depends on how long one has been on the BY, how long one has been a fan, and whether or not you spent any time on the old ESPN board or the Summitt.

If your fandom is fairly recent, say, the last decade, then you weren't around for the rivalry - and all the venom, innuendo, sneers, smears, lies and dirty tricks that emanated from Knoxville and the surrounding environs. I'm not gonna rehash it all (although the FBI complaint is still, perhaps, singularly noteworthy) - but, suffice to say, those of us with long history with the program can have long memories.

This road trip won't tell us that much. Long Beach St. is terrible. Stanford is the toughest game of the 3 but they've already lost 4 times. Kentucky is not a top-25 team.

This is the road sequence where we'll really find out something.

 

[donalddoowop]

If they don't win all three then they are not as good as Tennessee fans think they are, at least not at this present time. As Orangutan posted, those three games will be the true test of how good they are.

Actually I once saw some Washington fans on the North Dakota State message board doing something similar

 

[HoopsFan21]

I wonder who fixes the team bus if it breaks down along the way? If Geno was driving past on his way to see a certain top recruit in Arkansas, and saw the Tennessee Vols bus stuck on the side of I-40, would he stop and offer assistance?

I'd be holding a grudge if the individuals involved at the time of the offense were still with the teams.............am I correct that this is no longer the case?

Yes, you absolutely are. AD has changed at least twice, maybe more. I believe the formerly independent Women’s Athletic Department was consolidated into a single Department. HC HW maybe the only holdover.

My post stands for what it was, just an observation of human nature. I respect both sides of this debate. But, I do enjoy a good rant and Meyers7 and Rocky were hitting on all cylinders.

 

[HuskyNan]

You guys are killing me. I need to look for a wooden stake for this corpse.
