why is every person who tells it like it is...


Nov 15, 2014, 7:21 PM

suddenly a coot? makes no sense.

my apologies for not having 12,000 "points" like some of you, but when it comes to Clemson football, there is nobody who takes it more seriously than me. I am as die-hard as it gets, yet when someone posts something and tells it like it is, they're a coot. and you arrive at that conclusion because nobody could possibly be a realist and a clemson fan at the same time. and if you have less than 12,000 points, you don't belong here!

you guys are pathetic- from the patsies and pansies who would be satisfied with participation medals to the smart @$$e$ who always have something smart to say. nobody is EVER welcoming to the new members, and I'm sorry I ever subjected myself to the Internet-clemson fan base. the tiger fans I know in person are nothing like this.

It's the low pulse, few posts, and coming after a loss. That's how we know

Nov 15, 2014, 7:35 PM

you're wrong.
my pulse is low, and I'm no coot.
I came in after this awful loss today, and I'm no coot.

I'm sorry I don't have the time to sit around a computer all day and post on tiger net to get my points/pulse up. it's just pathetic. I will always tell it like it is. I don't want a participation medal, I want something to come of the talent and depth and experience of this team, and when they fail to execute, I am livid! you will never find me praising our team for a "job well done" after a loss. if you want to be elite, that is NOT the way.

and stop being so harsh to the new members!! who cares if they have a "low pulse". they may have something called a LIFE. you all should try getting one.

I gave u three reasons. Never said anything about u personslly one way or the other. Pulse is a function of how people view your posts. Granted yours is a small sample size but being that low probably indicates coolness or negativity. If you give a rats behind what people here say u probably are better off elsewhere

Are you telling me that laying around or in the pool all summer sipping on a Bud light isn't a life. And sitting in front of the fire place with high octane coffee in your hand and a laptop in your lap posting on T Net in late fall and winter isn't life. Your D.O.B. must be in the 1980s. Over many years I've earned this life, and the best part of life for me wasn't hurrying through life. Its now I'm actually enjoying everything I do without being in a hurry. Tiger FB is a big part of my enjoyed life along with TD-ing post that are bashing and talking chit about our players. They were invited and brought to Clemson, they didn't just walk up and tell the coaches I'm playing on this team. They were invited with special invitation. Please don't insult them!!! The ones that don't make great FB players, still end up becoming great members of Tiger Nation for life. Its the coaches job to remove them from their duty if they're not good enough, not ours the fan. Its OK to say so and so just isn't any good at their position without insulting them with you personal venom poisoning their character or lack of ability.

Yea because the true measure of a fan is their T-Net pulse/activity. T-Netters are so f$@@ing delusional. Maybe, being VERY generous here, 3% of Tigers fans are on T-Net. Don't get me wrong, T-Net is fun, but Death Valley is where you find the true fans.

Nov 15, 2014, 7:34 PM

internet, we all talked Clemson football Monday morning at work. Everybody had their own opinions, and we discussed them freely and openly, with arguments and disagreements all around. Nobody ever called anybody a "coot." And there were no "thumbs down", leading to a lower "pulse." I don't know why this behavior among the Clemson family is tolerated here, but it is. I have learned that someone's "pulse" has no bearing on the intelligence or insight of their posts, so I don't give it much credence. My advice is to post your thoughts in an open, honest, and respectful manner, and let the chips fall where they may.

Don't worry about what some faceless, ignorant people think about anyone on here. Some people seem to be more concerned with criticizing others than focusing on the task at hand, and that is to pull for and be a true "Tiger Fan" with all of your heart and soul. I use to think Tiger fans were the best fans in the nation, but after reading some of the things that's been said on here, it reminds me of some ignorant gamecock fans that I've known all of my life.

Re: why is every person who tells it like it is...


Nov 16, 2014, 4:00 PM

I rarely give TD for anything unless it is blantant disrespect for the team or an individual player. Dabo is a big boy he can handle when fair weather fans dump on him but the players are kids. I was upset that Lakip started horrible but I didn't vent frustration on him. He never attempted a FG in a college game until this year. To hate on Norton and some doing on twitter is ridiculous. You want a TD then bash our players.

Nov 15, 2014, 7:47 PM

but perhaps it is the way a person presents his post. You can be critical as hell in a way that is presentable.

One could have the most critical posts about players or coaches and if presented without all the anger, it could become a HOF post. Try it sometime

Your post right now proves my point. You could have posted your thoughts in a nice manner....and not added the pathitic part and it would have made a lot more sense

People can thumbs down their response, argue with them...whatever....still doesn't make them a coot. There isn't a fine line between an angry (venting mind you) Tiger and a coot...there is a wide gap.

Re: just a thought....

here's a better thought...

the manner in which I post would make no difference because these people base their opinions solely on your pulse/points. frankly I don't care if I am respected in the online clemson world. shame on me for thinking I could join and have meaningful conversations and discussions with fellow tiger fans. I guess on the board, we judge even our own people.

you all won't see me on here anymore. I just had to get this off my chest before I returned to reality.

did you ever consider that the manner in which you make posts is why your pulse is low and that you caused this yourself??

Evidently you do care if you are respected here or you would not have made the OP.

Nov 16, 2014, 3:53 PM

My first post was a "hey guys, I'm new" type post. I got drilled about coot things and Germans of course, but I come here to read and fraterenize with fellow Clemson fans since I can't be at every game any more.

I could care less about my posts getting "likes" or whether or not I get called a coot for my posts. This place is awesome for true Clemson fans and Alumni. I laugh every day at the sh*t I see on here. In fact, the Spinning Dickbutt was hilarious to me because I have the sense of humor of a 12 yr old sometimes.

Here's the TL;DR. Go away coot.

thanks for pulling up the thread.
guess since I posted a couple positive things about the injury update, it can now be confirmed I'm not a "coot".

and everyone who disagrees isn't pathetic. my wording was bad. it is pathetic, however, the views in which some of the people on this board have.

I went back on my word and came to post after I said I wasn't going to anymore, but I've been checking the site all day for good news and I am very happy to see it.

also, this post yesterday was made out of anger and disappointment coming off that embarrassing loss AND losing DW. being called a coot only added fuel to that fire. apologies to anyone I might've offended.
