re: Something that needs to be said about football

Our ADs’ overall culture of winning apathy, avarice, and try every unnecessary small-time gimmick when we have big-time resources is what personally makes me care less and less every year. I know that there’s “keeping up with the times” but the freaking band doesn’t even play anymore and every game they just blast “music” with fart noises and our team runs out and does dumb stuff and we win ugly or lose ugly. There’s no culture of excellence and those seasons have just been extra cringe. It isn’t wanted by tptb and they aren’t going to pay for it because too many idiots pay too much for a crap product. We can’t even beat aTm anymore, yet it’s usually a one-score game. If they wanted it, they’d already be planning for a successor for Pittman, who has done exactly what he was brought in for and what he’s capable of doing - building a more solid foundation and somewhat stabilizing us(love the guy, but he’s not taking us much/if any further). Basketball and baseball stand a much better chance and even then, we’re fighting uphill battles if we’re talking titles(for different reasons). Someday we’ll have a pie eating contest in the North or South endzone while the play clock is running “because they do this everywhere for “enhanced engagement and equity” and that will be it for me.
