You are the poster child of the term "bandwagon fan"

You definitely would have never made it through the period of 1967-68 or the terrible early and late 1970s or the late 1980s. The Florida State College for Women is looking for more fans I hear...since we are the flagship state school.

I'll sell ny tickets for face value if you want them. I like you guys you can waste your time on this Shitty arse team


You are hopefully just drunk...but you are most likely a young guy who doesn't know what its like to support a team through thick and thin.

Ive gotten pizzed when I look around in the Swamp and see so many young "fans" in non student seats (and good seats I might add...I know mom and dad paid for them)and they sit on their hands. They don't get goosebumps like I do when I hear the fightsongs and the rush I get seeing the band and then the team come out on Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Shame.

You do have a point.

I currently go to school at UF, and the student body in general just isn't as into football as it has been in the past.

Reel I am an Orlando Magic fan who went to over 20 games last year.

I am a Bucs fan who just now is deciding I'm done for the year on this team in terms of going to see them, I held out for a long time.

I go to lightning games frequently despite struggles.

I'm not a bandwagon fan, I love my teams through thick and thin. I will not SUPPORT them financially if I feel the money is being misused though. Screw you if you think I should have to pay for incompetence. I will wear orange and blue till I die, but I won't pay for shitty results when I expect better. Orlando, Bucs, Lightning...I can handle the bad there. Not with my Gators. I have realistic expectations, and if you can't meet them, my check is not paying for your dinner tonight coach. I'll be wearing my orange and blue at home the rest of the season. Call it what you want, but I know the best way to help UF at this point is to NOT show up. Foley seeing empty seats is the best way to make our message heard. Hearing Booing for bad offensive play calls will work too. I may just go to boo Pease's calls like I did with Addazio.

If UF just sucked...I'd be fine. Shoot I go to USF games to cheer them on and that team is always awful. The difference, is they don't have four and five star recruits. They don't have a top 5 athletic budget. They don't have expectations. Their staff isn't shitting on and pissing away potential NFL stars as our staff is. I show up, when you put what is expected on the field..and that's a team that isn't fighting on the sidelines. Coaches aren't getting down each others throats. A team with respect for the game who aren't late hitting the QB for no reason when the games over.

Muschamp is losing his team, and he lost my check book.

Oh, and I hate hand sitters too.
