Roller Coaster Rides for the Tigers & Grizz & others
The number of transfers continue to rise. Its a sign of the times. We may still have somebody transfer but isn't it amazing how much noise was made about our players transferring...much ado about nothing I'm afraid.

Remember when the city was up in arms when a combative Hollins was not retained as coach of the Griz? Remember how many times during the season they were doomed to not making the playoffs? Remember how many people said they wouldn't win more than 40 games. Bring back Hollins campaigns? In spite of significant injury issues and a poor start the young upstart still led them to 50 wins.

Remember when Pearl was scum to first Tiger Fans? Then he was a wanted man in town. Remember When the vols hated Martin and Tiger fans made fun of his ineptness? Then a couple of players decided to start playing real ball. We stopped making fun of him and vols erected a statue in his honor when they thought he might leave. Now after it's too late they want Bruce back. Even have a petition going round. And Goodman labels the vol job as one of the top 30 programs...at least. Shaking yet?

Remember the comments about a low rated Tiger class? Too many JUCOs? Now they are kicking butt and the recruiting continues. Who likes our chances next year?

Fans are a fickle bunch, Twitter and other e-info outlets leak false-hoods and wacky thoughts hourly. How many of you walk around with a Fish HooK in your cheek?

How about something special. Celebrate Easter with love and the proper amount meekness. Blessing to you all.

Something I said doesn't ring true?

Read the last sentence. What I've been having is free for all.

you're jumping around to a slew of different topics, and then lumping hundreds of different people into one person like they did it all themselves. Then promptly insult people followed with Easter love and meekness.

The last sentence is good, but sadly negated by the previous 5 sections.

When did the season start?

And I am pretty sure a ton of UT fans are glad that Martin is gone. The whole Pearl petition happened during the season while Martin was still the coach, not after he left for Cal.

I will be honest, I am with the above poster. This was just an odd rant and I am not really sure what you wanted anybody to take away from it... But I can agree with wishing everyone a Happy Easter!

I don't agree with a lot of what you say in this thread, but I support your right to say it.

Remember suicides? You would put each flavor of drink all together in one cup? That's what we have here. Several topics that are all thrown together so you can't really pick out any given one.

Point- people often are ready to throw in the towel but good things happen if you have a little faith.

Point- be careful how you treat people. You might chase off a good thing.

It's all about how you view life. Still blessings to you all.
