Sometimes We Fail to Recognize and Appreciate What We Have!

Earlier today, I was surprised to see a TNet poster reference TigerNet as “a toxic cesspool.” This poster went on to describe a culture of extreme negativity on TNet. This poster also described other TNetters in rather deplorable terms. The irony of this post was astounding!

Personally, I enjoy TNet for multiple reasons. I appreciate the information and insights on Clemson sports that I find on TigerNet. I also appreciate the interactions with Clemson fans. I find many posts insightful. I find many posts humorous. Either way, I always enjoy the site.

That is what I believe TNet was intended to be: A place where Clemson information is reported and a place where Clemson fans can congregate to discuss the greatest University ever created (that’s Clemson in case anyone is wondering).

As TNetters, our opinions do not always agree - but disagreements do not give TNet a negative culture. Instead, differing opinions only add to the fun. If we all shared the same exact thoughts, there would not be much need for an open forum like this one in the first place. But our disagreements ultimately stem from our shared love for Clemson and our shared desire to see Clemson reach the excellence it is capable of reaching.

I always appreciate the disagreements when they are respectful in tone and intent. Calling TNet a “toxic cesspool” and calling other TNetters deplorable names is neither.

Like so many things in life, sometimes we fail to recognize and appreciate what we have!

I find a lot of humor on here and virtual camaraderie with like minded Clemson folks. I enjoy the good natured jabs and jokes. I agree with your points.

Sometimes the religious and political discussions get a little too heated and personal, but I can choose to interact or not.

At the end of the day, I take more from alcohol and TNet than either has taken from me. Apologies to Sir Winston Churchill and Coach Howard.
Now give 110% or stay off my TNet. Go Tigers.

Great post CBProf. It only takes reading about really good things like the new contracts and or extensions for football coaches and staff to realize what a special place Clemson is. Appreciation is a word that is on the verge of extinction and that is sad thing.

Man, that's the truth!***
