I've never went more than a couple of days without checking out the site since I joined. Over the course of a year the site has been steadily getting worse. Opinions on how to make this program better is one thing but the rhetoric and bashing you have to endure on just about every post is another. I will not post here again unless there is a dramatic tone change on this FAN site. I know there are a number of fans on this site that feel the same way as I do... but its the few that makes the most noise and set the tone of the site. Pardon the drama of an announcement... but my purpose is to let those that share my same convictions, know that I will still check and respond to the direct messages.
Pops if we START OUT 3-0 you'll see a big change...we were much more positive 2 -3 years ago...You should've seen this board when Golden was hired.Felt like we have been sprayed with the ghost buster slime how positive this board was.... Realize this is therapy for us... we love these canes but can only be positive for so long.....I understand your plight..but trust me youll be back after our first win....If we beat Nebraska oh boy...youll be back and it will be great here( for 1 week)... but until then do what you gotta do
With all due respect to the OP, sending your son to play for Al Golden is.... well, I wish you and him good luck. You are going to need it. Hope he gets better coaching and leadership after the inevitable happens.
While I understand the frustration with AG from our vantage point, doesn't the father of a prime recruit have a more informed perspective? I mean, how many of us have met AG and actually talked to him? I haven't and venture to guess that 99% of those posting have never gotten close to him. Seems to me that the OP is in a far better position to evaluate the program, the coaches and all the intangibles then any of us are.
****, he has been inside and seen it while all of us could only dream about that access.
Look at it like a business. You have one of your best customers telling you he doesn't like what he sees in your shop. You tell him to **** off without looking in the mirror and reflecting on what that means.
So you don't like the coach, we get it already...try and be respectful about it for a change is the only point I would add.

Vern Let's keep it real. The white posters wanted the black ***** out. Period. These white guys can fact all they want. Let's call a spade a spade. The white posters were pumping up Golden because he a white boy like them and he speaks w better diction that Randy. That's why I love the fact that these same "closet racists " ruined this site because there white leader can't coach.
No, this post isn't about race. Just funny how they turned on the one guy who can speak clearly. Lmao
Legitimate answer: watch dudes like you flail as you get whipped around like a tetherball. And try not to let this place burn itself to the ground before Saturday rolls around.
Good answer. Exactly what I thought the answer would be.
And you wonder why the father of one of our top 2016 recruits, and probably his greatest influence on where he signs his college L.O.I., leaves this site.
Congrats on your status as a moderator, a position which is supposed to be unbiased, at least everywhere but the internet.
You really set the bar as low as it can go.
You done whining yet, fella? Why don't you make some more predictions that won't come close to being true a year from now?
Yes, I have a huge bias against a trainwreck HC ruining the object of my affection. Not my fault some of you refuse to see AG for what he is. But don't worry, sweetheart, come December you'll know well enough.

I don't whine. Not my style.
By the way you should read that new moderating system.
I have. That's why I wonder what it takes to be a moderator.
"We don't want to take sides in the Golden/Anti-Golden debate. That has killed other boards in the past."
"Number three, and this is the most significant: no personal insults. I know this is an argument board, so there will be smart *** comments. That's normal. but when you get in an insult battle with a poster, the thread stops being about football. You an say that post is idiotic. But don't say "Youre a ****ing idiot." You can call a poster out for being wrong, But don't say, "Your dancing around like a Kansas City ******."
Now, I'm not sure why homos from Kansas City would be singled out, and I didn't write that.
DMoney did, who I think is also a moderator.
So after seeing your most recent posts, I ask again, "What does a moderator do on this site?"
Don't worry about what I do, fella. Stay slept on the real problems, though, that's your MO.
The []_[];2270309 said:The crazy thing is that half of you don't get the point he's making. how many of you have ever met a college coach? know a highly recruited high school player? like cal jimmy said this is a business. Golden needs to perform on the field but we have a person thats directly in the know that is willing to send his highly recruited son to play for the people that he and his family has personally developed a relationship with and you guys dont know **** about golden and his staff except the stats under a bad 4 year stretch. if Golden is good enough to the eyes of these recruits and their families dont get ****ed off when the families tell you that they're tired of your ****. You guys are bashing golden and his staff that has an excellent class coming in but yet want golden gone. Yall are fools if you think a new staff that doesnt include coley,art, hurlie, kb and kareem brown is going to hold this class together. And if you want the canes to win soon ,pressing the reset button will only put us further behind fsu and uf. We should be hoping for success from Golden this year.
Good point falling on mostly deaf ears.
Perhaps the best of them all. Goes missing in action 9-02-14 to April of 2015 once he realizes he made an *** of himself.

Actually went missing for the same reason the original poster said he was.
So, how about that bet?
You got any guts or are you all just talk?
Just curious, if you are so upbeat and positive about how great this year is going to be, why place such a safe bet as over or under. That’s betting on your team to be just a tad above mediocre, not showing much faith at all. One would think if you had that much confidence and wanted to put your money where you mouth is, you would bet the canes will win 10 or more games this season. Otherwise, it is just another distraction and smoke screen. I would take that bet even though I have different opinions on how this team is being ran, but as a real fan I will never bet against the canes. I think the others that disagree with you and the program may feel the same way about betting against their team. So your point of being scared or not taking your bet is absurd.

I have no idea what the over/under is. I actually believe/hope that we will be 13-1 this year.
I've never bet against the Canes, but I see dozens of pages extolling things like "hoping for losses," and it makes me shutter.
My point was, that one poster picked out a number of posts I made out of thousands, and attempted to belittle me.
He does this only out of spite. No other reason, and I made a legitimate wage with him. He thinks we will be crap this year and I don't think so.
I think the exact opposite.
I can never bet preseason that we will run the table. It's happened 5 times in 3 decades for us. I'm an optimist, but I'm also a realist.
My wager was made because I don't like the poster.
Nevertheless, he ran away from the wager.
If I knew of another site I would have left last year. The same guys ruined rivals along w Gary and they ruined scout's paid and free board.
These are the same people who destroy organizations.
Rudebuddha should transfer to CaneInsider or Canesport.
There's way too many poster with female tendencies on this site. There's a 13 page post on rooting for losses? Clowns. Go change your maxi pad. We get it, the Canes are not where we want them to be obviously. But crying about it and spending US dollars on banners will not result in wins. Just saying
