I’m just trying to let y’all know that some of the comments you make are hurtful to some people and maybe just reel it back a little. Because, like all of you, these families have an interest in the team and when a bunch of keyboard quarterbacks take potshots at their kids, it’s tough to read. If that makes me a troll, so be it. I’d rather be a troll than an a$$hole.
Well, yeah, but does he even work hard?
Apparently, nothing berger would rather boast his holier than thou attitude rather than accept an apology and move on. Not very forgiving of him.
What are you, My Cousin Vinny? **** if I know what a grit is. I’m neither southern nor obese.
Them's hominy grits....
You have said that it was one comment. Said poster acknowledged that he was wrong. Yet you keep accusing every body here of getting personal with their posts. Move on dude.
"grist for the mill" -- new one to me, but I like it!
Which is my evidence that Berger is nothing but a troll. His concern was addressed, but his continued insistence that as a group we are engaged in routine player bashing is unfounded but he continues his narrative nonetheless. His posting is not in good faith.
Based on my unique insights to naval aviators, I would say no.
I guess I shouldn't be so vulnerable posting in the diet thread.
Are you new to the internet?
I would have let it go as well until someone decided that these kids doing their best wasn’t good enough for them. The best was the guy saying he pays a lot of money for the right to talk **** about the players. That’s a solid fan right there.
Can you use the quote (or even reply) function to show us the offending post, or maybe give us a post number if you're not able to do that?
Well, if we're being honest, no, the adult players doing their best hasn't been good enough and isn't good enough for this program going forward. It's not their fault and it's not personal, but we are fans of the Colorado Football program and want it to be successful. Sorry that you're offended by that.
Let’s make one thing clear: these kids “doing their best” is most definitely NOT good enough.
If you’re referring to me, then say so. Show me where I talked **** about the players.
I’m not outraged. I’m more shocked at the amount of people who don’t give a crap about the players and their families. I couldn’t delete my original post and edited to these kids are doing their best. Then the comments kept pouring in about how their best isn’t good enough for the keyboard quarterbacks. I probably should have let it go that the forum is just filled with a$$holes, but stubborn ol me decided to play along. Screw it. Y’all keep being jerks and cheering for a team that hasn’t done squat in over 20 years. I’ll keep supporting the players and being proud of watching them succeed in life, even if they lose a game none of us are playing. Haters gonna hate.
It’s a game, bro. You wanna talk real world, let’s talk GPA of the student athletes. Let’s talk the record high GPA CU’s football team put up this spring semester. Bet you don’t care about that because you don’t care about the kids.
If they’re doing their best and the results of that are losing games and a historically bad offense, then their best isn’t good enough. Their hard work should be towards improving so their “best” can yield better results. Maybe that’s what they’re trying, but we haven’t seen it on the field yet. And maybe it won’t happen at all and they’re just not good enough.
Thanks Lefty. I missed it all. Enjoy your posts.
Oh go **** yourself. At this point, you're just being a ****ing douche. We all care about the players' health, it's great that the program has a high GPA and graduation rate, and we wish them well in life after CU. If you actually took the time to read and see how this community supports the athletes, you wouldn't have these ridiculously uneducated takes.
Berg, we get your point. You are repeating yourself. It ain’t happening. You aren’t changing this board. Hope you participate. Or move on.
Glad I could help.
After our DM exchange where my offending post was removed, followed by your restating the substance of my offending post in your post #91 certainly seems like you weren't ready to let it go.
I’m just baffled you still think people don’t care about the players because they are getting a tiny bit of criticism about their play. I don’t know what boards you are reading, but I don’t recall a single post here celebrating, joking, or being insensitive about any player injury.
