can you please email the current AD this response
I sent a lengthy to Alleva in response to one of the several e-mails begging me to buy tickets. Pointed out that we (4) had made every home game, and two road game trips, but with the state of the economy, a 401(k) sucking more wind than our pass defense and tenuous job situation, we have had to make cutbacks. I also pointed out that going to LSU games were part of our entertainment budget, and frankly, we were not entertained this year. I have been a Tiger fan for a long time, going to games for longer than many posters have been on this earth, so don't tell me I am falling off of any bandwagon, but it is really hard not to give up on a team that clearly had given up.
My son had a chance to go with some friends, so we paid for his flight as a birthday present, but the rest of us are going to spend our holiday at home, and not wrapping our entire life for a week around the Chicken Bowl.

I haven't been home since the start of the semester...no way I could rationalize going to Atlanta to watch a football game

Even Nascar events had empty seats.
Understatement of the year.
Two years ago there were 50--FIFTY!!--Full Time/Fully Sponsored teams fighting for 43 spots at every race. Now, there may be a few races in 09 that need "field fillers." Tens of thousands of empty seats at popular races like Talladega, Las Vegas, Michigan, and Texas.

the dude is obviously a stalker, he goes to my myspace and posts my stuff on here.

I'm still confused, obviously he has wayyyyyyy too much time on his hands to be reading my myspace and posting stuff
You come here and claim to be this net tough guy but on your personal site openly admit you're a dork...PacoDorkTaco.
