Then it hit me, who am I really making these videos for? I started off doing it many years ago on VHS for friends and as the internet progressed I took it to Youtube. But this fanbase has become so miserable that it's hard to find the drive to spend a day or two editing a 15 minute video. It's like what's the point anymore?

There is no fire in our fanbase anymore. I sit in the same spot that we have tailgated for decades and watch the changes. There is no electricity in the crowd, only iPhones stuck to faces. We lose a game and it's the end of the world. We are on the winningest streak in our history and people complain.

Anyway in closing, I am no longer making videos. I will keep my existing videos up. Thanks for the feedback and Geaux Tigers.

Who are you?

I don't even know what your other videos are.

you probably answered your own question. everybody is watching your youtube videos at the tailgates on their iphones.

I watch your videos pretty often man. You should probably keep making them.

rnolan53, I'm suscribed to your channel and love your videos. I have probably watched all your videos going back to 2001.

I always watch your highlight videos for the team that we're about to play. I also rewatch the big away games I went to. I usually eat lunch at my desk and put your videos on while I eat.

It's a shame you're going to stop, but thanks for all the videos you've uploaded. I'll keep watching them.

We are 2-2 in our last 4 games.

11-5 in our last 16.

9-4 in our last 13 SEC games.

Not bad, but not "winningest streak in our history".



Our next two SEC games do not look promising.

Man, I'm subbed to your channel, and love what you do. What a shame it would be if you quit making your videos.

That sucks!! I waste a ton of time at work enjoying your videos. I probably watch about 3 a week, sometimes more. I hope you change your mind. Don't let the bad fans ruin for the good ones.

I watch your vids all the time when nothing else inspires me and I really appreciate them

But I also understand your feelings about this. I would say that most of the angst crowd haven't ever experienced the lows of the program and have no perspective

Thanks for the hard work you've done though man.

I, like most people here have said, understand your position. I'd hate to see them go though. I always enjoy watching them for the memories and a reminder how I felt seeing those moments live. I've especially enjoyed watching videos from before I started following the tigers (I'm 25, became a fan in 96). Maybe a new generation of unjaded tiger fans could watch and learn too. I hope you reconsider your decision

Are you freaking kidding me!!!! You know well enough that these rantards are kids and when they grow older they will finally recognize how stupid they were!!

Your videos are the only thing that keep me from going insane in offseason. I love them and really appreciate the effort you put in. Don't be discoraged by these stupid fans, they have no clue .

Keep up the good work and

Hate to hear this. Love your videos and being able to go back to watch the game I remember. Even as a confessed negatiger about some of our coaching, I hope you reconsider.

you make them for the guys overseas, like me, who get deployed and have to download them to watch them.

I mean I get why your pissed, but some people are still fans man. not everyone sucks.

So this is your idea of restoring the electricity and fire in our fanbase?
