Mark Hudspeth's post-loss rant gave the wrong message

I pay taxes every year. Do you think the secret service will allow me to walk into the White House any time I want?

The difference is that it is against the law not to pay your taxes. Donating to the RCAF is strictly voluntary. Every contributor can stop donating any time they choose to do so.

You missed my point.

Actually you can schedule an appointment with your local congressman and get a tour.

You're right & wrong. I agree that Hud should have the right to shut the building down to a lot of outside distractions going on. And he should have done that from the beginning of the move into the place. But you are dead wrong in saying that building belongs to the program, & not to you & me. Speak for yourself, but the money that a lot of people like myself put into the program is what built, & will pay for that building. So in essence we are as much a part of the program as anyone not wearing a player's uniform. Personally I made a conscious effort to stay away until I knew everything was completed, & had been moved into, & it wouldn't be a distraction to the team to go see the digs. But I expect that one day after the season is over, I'll go ask for, & get permission to tour the facilities for myself. Because as a pretty good size contributor to the program for the last five years, I definitely feel a sense of ownership of what this program, this coaching staff, & this team has been able to accomplish over the past four seasons. And if they go whip LTU's behinds this Saturday, I'm pretty sure not too many people will give a good crap about what happened this past Saturday. On the other hand, if they get whipped again, the feedback will be justifiably negative with good reason.

I thought you went back to being a Tiggah fan?
