-Because an upperclassmen was upset with an underclassmen for missing a either a blocking assignment or a tackle?
-Or because an OC and a DC were arguing about schemes?
- Or because the Offense didn't want the Defense stopping the Offense, and vice versa?
- Or because #2 guy was battling #1 guy for the #1 spot?
- Or because #3 guy was battling #2 guy for the #2 spot?
- Or because big brother player was giving little brother player a lesson?
- Or because the team captains weren't going to tolerate tomfoolery shitardery?
- Or because plays MATTERED at practice? Warm-ups MATTERED at practice? Film MATTERED at practice?
Alonzo and Melvin hammered guys at practice who weren't serious and emotionally invested and mentally invested and practiced at 100% they way they needed to on gameday. Jimmy and Butch's assistant argued ALL time time at practice trying to make each other better, and the players better, and the team better.
This is a big part of the macro-problem the vast majority of fans mean when we talk about a soft bitchassness country club culture, and the tomfoolery shitardery that goes on a weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. It's a joke that the fans are angrier, more emotionally invested, and have higher standards/expectations for this team than the powers-that-be, the coaches, and the players. Because if it was the other way around, then we would be able to read, hear, and SEE it - on the field, in practice.
Don't try to talk this fan base into accepting bullshit that the players, coaches, and media reguritate. This fan base knows better, becasue we've been seeing the same stupid ass country club bullshit problems with this Program for the last 15+ years now
(And for those of you who have been hammering Rhett Lashlee the last few days about our Offense, I agree with a lot of the posts, and will have a thread about Rhett Lashlee in the coming days and why the pressure is as much if not more on Rhett than Manny this weekend).
