Saturday Was A Great Day

[ManAboutTown]

No sir, I love all this school is and has given me. My choice was based on the feedback I received from those in charge.

I was probably wrong to post all I did, and I ask for everyone's forgiveness. The point, though, was that university management doesn't care about my money or presence - my family does.

It isn't any sport, it's management. My heart breaks for the kids. The coaches get only so much credit, as they make many more times the salary I do. But, management needs to know this (I'm sure some still read this site).

You have nothing to apologize for.

Question…did they bother to try to keep you on board?

No, they said sorry to see you go

[ZoomZoom]

No, they said sorry to see you go

Darn, was hoping the last person you spoke with from UL cared.

Even XM radio offers something when people start to leave them.

[Sonsissymia]

No, they said sorry to see you go

better than “what took you so long?,” i guess.

Or can you call back in an hour after my shift ends so someone else can do the paperwork

[Big Tyme]

Oh wow. Is it hard to hide your cape in everyday life? Geezus dude. Take a look around the stadium and look how many "tough cajun fans" are left. Its dwindling everyday, but hey, your a tough cajuns fan. Congrats again. Your group is getting smaller and smaller. And older and older. That isolationist attitude really has grown the attendance, huh? You're as tone deaf as Martin Hall. That place must have the toughest of the tough in that building!

What attitude? I support my University through thick and thin. Simple, really. No fair weather, bandwagon jumping from me.

Go back to the original post and read slowly and tell us again he’s a “fair weather” “bandwagon jumping” fan…

It's a fruitless endeavor with some, like him. They think it's some sort of badge of honor. It saddens me when I hear ANOTHER fan is done. I'm not mad at them because I completely understand. But some here would rather act smug like Martin Hall is gonna let them sit on their lap and give them some sort of prize. People like that are so damn myopic. Instead of encouraging fans to hang in there, they say, frankly, dumb $#!+ like, "it's strange you would come here to tell us you're done." Those folks will be sitting with less and less fans. They share the same smug, don't care attitude as Martin Hall. But hey, he's a "tough" Cajuns fan. Whatever that means. I'm still going to games and supporting the program, too. But I'm also not $#!++!ng on fans that aren't anymore.

We will not be at the game but if you see cjr3888 have a beer with him.

I didn't take New Mexico's sincere post as he's DONE. He's just done right now. Sometimes its healthy to take a step back. You just care and want the best, so you buy tickets, donate, etc. and TRUST the resources will be applied appropriately. College football is big business these days. Those administering our resources should be held to a high standard. Its very exciting the stadium project is coming to fruition. The renderings reflect a first class football facility. More than ever we need more ticket buyers and tail gaters. Management needs to do extensive outreach. Survey fans asking the simple question: "what will it take to get you back?" Then listen. The chief complaint might not be the price of a ticket. Maybe its tailgating restrictions or whatever. Point being they need to find out and fast. Otherwise management comes across as not caring leading to even worse fan apathy than present.

And how many times have we heard this exact same experience from a fan? It happens WAY too often here, a place that needs every dime and butt in seat that it can scavenge up.

One way loyalty is stupidity. Giving your money to people that continually prove that they have no idea what to do with it is also stupidity. The majority of us are apparently fine with being stupid, I suppose. But I'm certainly not going to chastise someone for being smarter than we are when it comes to ROI.

Well, I'm not a drinker, but you know me. I'll sit and chop it up with any Cajuns fan. Even ones I disagree with or give a lot of $#!+ to on here. I mean, if I can meet and be friends with Vic outside of here, I can be friendly with anyone! I learned he's a good dude. Just an annoying $#!+ on here. LoL
