Sadly, don't ask many that post here. It seems many have disagreed.
I don't go golf. I work at a golf club as a golf professional. I do much more than golf. Wish I could say I got to golf enough. Not what many people may think. I love my job and I love Uconn Athletics. I am 24 years old, make pennies and peanuts and made the decision to move to Florida for my future. I'm sorry I don't live in CT any longer and can't afford season tickets or attend every game. I attend every game that I can. I drove 3.5 hours through pouring rain across the state and stood through the mess to watch this team take on USF in what "many" have called an embarrassment. When I was fortunate enough to visit home, I convinced my family to attend the Boise State game. My own mother wanted to plug her ears due to my incessant cheering and support of this football program.Actually the "many" you refer to in fact do support the program while you mooch from the sunshine in FL. I find it hilarious that you continue to take these shots at the people who actually shell out dough while you go golf.

I could say all I want, but you wouldn't understand. Florida is different, but you wouldn't care. I didn't have to go, but I wanted to and I did. Don't take punches because I care and did what I had to do to stand and cheer on this football team. But if you want to take punches, ok.Was it uphill both ways?

I got the "joke". wasn't a joke to me and I didn't appreciate it.

My comments extend from the many comments I have seen from "many" saying they are "done", "not renewing season tickets", etc. And how do you infer that I mooch? I do what I can. I work every holiday, most weekends and most months get less than 3 days off. But ok. Attempt to poke fun that I live in Florida, support the Huskies and share my disdain in those that have given up according to their comments. If it was financially feasible and possible for me to own season tickets, you better believe I would. But to think I "mooch from the sunshine state" and "take shots at the people who actually shell out dough while I go golf" is unfair". I'm sorry I can't afford to travel near and far, buy season ticket packages and such. I do what I can to support this program "shelling out dough" as best I can as well.
Bluntly said, but tough to disagree with the sentiment.All well fine and good. Nobody begrudges you for making the decision to move to FL or holds your financial situation against you.
That being said, you don't get to rip or judge fans that have spent thousands and thousands of dollars supporting the school and the program. If those people have had enough and decide not to renew you should SHUT YOUR MOUTH given your situation. You don't get to rip or judge them. And when you do, you deserve to be called out.

You seemed to poke fun and think my life was easy, well and good. Not exactly. I have an opinion. You have an opinion. I can disagree with the decisions and the words of others just as you don't agree with mine fine and good. As I said, if I was financially capable I would be one of the fans that shells out thousands and thousands supporting the school and program. Trust me I wish I could. This is the boneyard, opinions are opinions and we are allowed, as far as I am concerned, to share our thoughts and opinions. If I hurt your feelings, or others who have shelled out thousands and thousands I am sorry. I would be at every game if I was fully capable. But I feel I can share my opinion(s).
