Just read where someone called my last post raw dribble and several people said how hard it was to keep positive after a loss like that. I agree. Ive seen what its like for the team on the ride home from hard loss. Nobody speaks. Everybody is hurting deep. Yes, we lost badly and we have no shot at being SEC champions now. The year started off fantastic and then we hit a bad stretch. Everyone knows it Does hearing me say that make you happy? Does saying it yourself make you happy? Is it going to make this week any better? Yes, we all have to endure the trash-talking this week. We fans didnt enjoy our weekend, but for the players and coaches its their LIVES were talking about. There is a type of fan who loves to tell everybody We won!! ... when things are going well. When things go bad, it suddenly becomes The Rebels lost. They distance themselves from the team, from the players who had bad days, from the coaches whose game plan didnt work the way they planned. This type of fan can kiss my Rebel ass!! Ive watched football as long as any of you, and sometimes a team just gets snakebit and has a game when nothing goes right and everything goes wrong. Yes it sucks. Yes its painful to watch when youre on the receiving end. It happens in championship games and Super Bowls. It happens. But the only positive thing anyone can do is suck it up and start looking forward. Thats what the team has to do now. Or would you RATHER they just stood around muttering and trying to put the blame on someone else? If we expect them to have more courage and character than that, we should try having some ourselves. If someone feels the need to say This isnt my fault. Id have done things differently., dont worry. We all know you didnt have anything to do with the loss. Or with all the wins either. You couldnt take the pressure to be a coach, and you couldnt try to be hero in the second half with a freezing wind and driving rain and hurt ankle against you. In short you couldnt have done any better. If any of you are insulted by this post, just unlike this page and quit reading what I have to say. You wont be missed, and nobody will hold it against you. You can find plenty of forums out there. Go buy a Bear Bryant hat and a cowbell and you can be ready to root for whoever is representing the West in the SEC championship game this year. Personally, I could care less about that game now. If the Rebels arent playing in it, it doesnt matter to me. The Rebels are still a good team, if not a great team. They are 8-3 this year and its not over yet. Despite what happened Saturday, I know they have the talent to beat State. Its not guaranteed, never guaranteed, but the Arkansas loss has nothing to do with the games to come. The game plan will be different and we can expect to see a war. Step up and show your class, Rebels fans. Hotty Damn Toddy!!
