Ok, so I overreacted a little. I'm just tired of people shitting on my school.
Have had a chance to reflect. Though I never meant I wanted the kid to get injured, I did hope he'd become anther Pat Patterson. I suppose I shouldn't even want that, though I'll certainly not wish him well. I'm sick & tired of outsiders dumping on us. It especially riles me up when a kid who has been shown nothing but respect does it. But that's all it was about for me. I challenge any of you to point out any other post I've made coming down on another player who chose another school. I haven't. You'll also never find a post from me that makes me look like a stalker or obsessive recruitnik who spends countless hours following high-school football players. I haven't.
But I am maroon through-and-through, and have been unwaveringly so since 1980. I've had to read and listen to so much BS, and misleading propaganda over the years that I'm sick of it, and want to fight back. This kid punked us, plain & simple. Maybe a straw that broke the camel's back, but a straw nonetheless. Screw him and the horse he rode in on. I hope we get to play agaisnt him in a bowl and make him look foolish.
