I'm sorry USM disappoints you with a win.

Don’t think of it as “arguing.” Think of it as “encouraging discussion.”

Hell, what else could we possibly talk about after a win, the game? Where would the fun be in that if we can’t rail on someone else’s failure in order to make ourselves feel better?

I've honestly never understood why some people find it surprising that more people come out after losses when we've been failing for three years now. People are sick of losing and will want to vent, especially when we're losing to utterly trash teams. And then those same people complain about how, when we win, no one comes in to talk about it. Well yeah, no one cares that we beat Troy. No one cares that we beat Youngstown State. They're trash programs. "Oh but Troy went to NCAAs last year!" A miracle run in the Sun Belt Tournament, however 'prestigious' it might be, does not make a program strong. There are teams I expect to beat and you better believe I'll want to vent when we not only lose, but get blown our by said teams.

And when we get a big win, I'll be the first one on here celebrating. But we haven't had one of those in years. Heck, a win at all is hard to come by currently.

Yep, it's like that with literally every other college sports program in the country as well. Imagine what the Alabama boards looked like during their game against Auburn.

Some people choose to act like it's only Southern Miss because soapbox

You're just disappointed that USM won.

Nail head, meet EagNBran

The true beauty of this thread is how it shares the front page with the one lamenting how we can’t keep up with other schools’ coaching staff’s salaries.

No one cares, right up until they do.
