There's a difference in fans that want to win and fans that call in to DTS and think we're going to win the SEC every season. These are the fans that listen to the Arkansas sports media shill for the UofA and believe every word and drink all the coolaid.

I think it was fair for the fans to get fed up after 5 seasons of shitty football under BB. I also think it's fair for fans to turn up some heat on MA after 7 seasons of mediocre basketball. If DVH has a string of bad seasons then it will be fair for the fans to voice th their displeasure.

I don't think it makes you a bad fan to complain on a message board or to even call DTS (in all fairness, I quit listening to DTS years ago because so many Razorback made the show unbearable) and complain. Flying banners and pulling FOIAs was a black eye on our program though.

It makes you a bad fan when you say that the first loss of the baseball season needs to serve as a wake-up call... It means that you likely know nothing about baseball and you are still bitching about it.

Last year's Oregon State team was a total anomaly... Teams don't go nearly undefeated in baseball.

Stop. Right. There.

Everybody wants to win. The question I have is how much are fans investing to help the program win?

The majority of the bitchers and complainers don't donate a single penny the RF or buy tickets. BUT let's be fair. You don't have to donate or attend games to be a fan. However, you should have a basic knowledge of the game and team to which you claim to be a fan.

Sadly, the majority of our fans don't have that knowledge. Their fandom is simply bitching on social media or message boards.

If this isn't you then you shouldn't be offended but it's time our fans get called out for their dumbassery.

Refusing to support a program if they don't play in little rock = dumb.

Saying a QB is starting b/c of his dad = dumb

Flying banners = dumb

Sending death threats and other garbage toward our student athletes = dumb

Telling our student athletes that they will be lucky to work at McDonalds if they leave early for the NBA = dumb

There are many...... many more examples from our fans but we can't mention these things. Oh no..... our fans are perfect.
