Alright, this thread pissed me off.

Where does it say that I have to express undying optimism in order to be keep my fan card?  I think there are some problems right now, and they are legitimate concerns, and they are going to keep us from going anywhere at least for this season if they are not addressed.  Stating that and questioning the direction things appear to be pointing does not make me a BANDWAGON FAN! (yelling intentional)  Saying I'm jumping ship is akin to calling me unpatriotic because I don't like Bush and the Congress.

Can things get better?  Of course.  Will they?  Well, let me put it this way – I have seen NO signs of that happening yet.  Have you?  This was supposed to be our breakout year, remember?  But the way things have gone, I am extremely disappointed in pretty much all aspects of the program right now, from players to coaches to the foot-dragging on the stadium, you name it.

And that still doesn't make me a bandwagoneer.  It makes me an angry fan who demands more from a team and a university that I think can and should deliver it.

Why do you think this thread is aimed at you??? I did not bring up the term bandwagon in the original post and don't know if I ever have aside from joking about it as in the last couple of photos. If you take offense that is on you. I have been critical of the team and I am disappointed in the performance, but I know that I have been here since day one and will be here for the long haul so I am confident that any discussions of bandwagon, etc. do not pertain to me personally.

GO OWLS!!!

I wasn't necessarily directing that post at you, but rather at the people who reacted to your OP with "and to them, there's the door."  That's just ridiculous.  Bandwagon fans?  Come on.  The only bandwagon I see around here are the ones jumping aboard the Hell-Yeah-I'm-Still-an-Owl bandwagon, as if it really needs to be said.  So now we're going to have Team ;D and Team :o ?  I hope not.  I don't know who it was that said "root for the winner and you'll never be disappointed," but anybody who would seriously dump FAU and find another team to root for… well, f- 'em.

And for the record, I sincerely hope the team proves me wrong.
