We are all going about it the wrong way

I AM NOT MAKING ANY SUGGESTIONS, ONLY OFFERING AN OBSERVATION.
Don't you realize by now that for those who make the decisions, it is NOT about Ws and Ls? It is about $$$$$$.
As long as Tiger stadium is full and people are buying parking spaces/passes, concessions, shirts and hats things will never change.
I am watching the threads about the Les Miles show. People are obviously listening to the show and its advertisements and waiting on hold to ask questions. As long as people are listening, the advertisers are happy and there couldn't be less care about what we feel. In fact, the QB controversy probably increased the ratings of the show.
If you go to a restaurant and don't get what you paid for, what do you do? You complain to the manager. If you don't get a satisfactory response you can either accept it and continue to buy the bad food or go somewhere else.
NOTHING will change as long we continue to go to the games, listen/watch the radio/TV shows and support their sponsors.
The fans (customers) actually have the absolute power to affect change, but being fans we are not willing to do what it takes and they know it.

So please for the love of Billy Cannon can you ALL just go away.
IF being unbeaten makes you all this angry then just go away, you will never be happy.

So, what your saying is that we should not show up and support the TEAM which by the way is 7-0. Good luck with that one pal.

Have you not been reading any of these posts for the last 7 weeks?
The fans are not unhappy about being 7-0. They are unhappy at how close this team has come to being 4-3 with the real possibility that there will be losses this eseason that should not occur and would not occur if obvious changes were made.
I love being 7-0, but would prefer to be 12-0. I just don't believe that the current trend will get us there.
at 12-0, I will be the first to admit that I was wrong. Will thos who blindly accept how this team got to 7-0 be as willing at 9-3 or 8-4?

Go back and reread the first line of my post.
I am not suggesting that. I am saying however that bitching and moaning about things will not change anything.

I think you mean we have to use child psychology. Play JJ Miles, play JJ!!!

So what you are saying is that you and 'they' are a bunch of chicken-little pansies.

The current trend is to win every game, stop being a pansy.

I have a better ideal, why don't you just shut up now and enjoy the ride.
If the team has this 'much anticipated' collapse then you can tell us how smart you were because you knew it all along and I'm sure we'll await your expert analysis with baited breath.
In the mean time can you (and they) just shut the heck up?
Thanks!

Great Post. This team plays like wild dogs for their coach. He's not getting fired, where would the school come up with 12 mil to buy him out? How can you fire a coach for being undefeated?
