Are Kal fans going through menopause? - yvonne - 01-18-2012

I mean, they have some SERIOUS mood swings!

When things are going well (or in the off season), they talk about how the team is in the running for a national championship. When the team is only moderately good, they want to fire the coach. When things start going really bad, and they're hampered by the state budget, they want to fire the athletic director and the chancellor. When it looks like they're getting a good recruiting class, they talk about how it will be top 5, or even No. 1. When the recruiting coordinator is doing well, and is recruiting for them, he is of the highest character, a "true golden ****," and a loyal son who is all Kal. When he's with another team, he's the ultimate scumbag and turncoat, the world's biggest slimeball.

I maintain the highest entertainment of vituperative fandom is whenever Bruins Nation (the blog) decides to go on the warpath and get some UCLA coach fired. Someone (or many someones) on that blog has political experience, it's pretty clear.

Maybe he's just awkward in front of the camera, but I find Ted Miller very obnoxious/condescending in the video.

But he's right: it's a business for most coaches.

Obnoxious and condescending?Â How?Â

I thought that was a brilliant take on the situation with Cal, Lupoi and UW.Â Totally spot on from my perspective.

My unsolicited advice:Â Grow up, Cal fans and don't burn your bridges.Â

It's always possible your paths and Lupoi's may pass again and burning bridges during the heat of the moment is just plain dumb.Â (See Jim Harbaugh and Michigan for an example of just how quickly those raw emotions can pass when a coach is more successful than you imagined - and now you want him back afterall.)
