There are a lot of ******* in the isu fan base who really seem to think outside opinions matter. Nobody talks about the teams that do the right thing all the time, and lose.
Jamies Winston still plays with all of his crap, yet we'll suspend (or some even suggest kick off the team) BDJ for being loud. I'm really tired of ISU and ISU fans being holier than thou with this crap.
Yeah, lets start letting rapists and thieves on our team because we can win that way! Pathetic how low some fans will stoop to see their team win.

I see what you are saying, but c'mon... Normally, when kids have issues with the way they are coached, or their teammates, they quietly transfer. I happens all the time. They dont break their jaws, or walk out on them, and they certainly dont do it at more than one place. The kid has behavioral issues. THeres no way you can deny that, and I understand that he's not the only one that does, but when crap like this about him keeps popping up time after time, you have to wonder when enough is enough.
Like I said, I see what you are saying, and if there had been maybe one instance of negativity in his past, then sure, I can give the kid a pass and blame it on his environment, but when he makes the papers for all the wrong reasons at his third college in four years, you have to start blaming the actual person, not their environment.
I don't disagree with a word of the bolded. I don't delude myself into thinking some of these kids are really student and not in effect playing in a farm system. And that's fine. But while here - they have certain obligations to uphold - and I expect that they do so. And one general one is to have a bit of respect for other people.
Is Matt Smith someone in particular or like "Jane Doe" or "John Q. Public"?
I'm totally on board with your post and I agree with you.
However, I still reserve the right to call someone a ******* when they've been behaving like a ******* and this includes players for the school I attended and root for fanatically. I also reserve the right to call out the extreme jock sniffers in this thread.
There's a midlde ground and I think you've identified it just fine.
I agree and I think any reasonable person should understand what you just said. It's not like we're asking BDJ to become a priest here. Just be respectful. It's not that difficult. The whole situation could have very easily been avoided.
Player of the week. 13th ranked team in the country. On track track to be conference new comer of the year. How's that not a cancer to the team?
I have never seen a thread this big in less than 12 hours of the first post. Quite impressive.
Well then, let's start doing THE WRONG THING here at ISU! It will give us a chance of winning for a change! And besides, it'll be MORE ENTERTAINING! Doing THE RIGHT THING is for losers!
