Trying to tune out the chronic complainers
ESPN
There's nothing worse than sitting in the stands at a game and having to put up with ignorant experts. These are the people who don't know anything but insist on broadcasting their ignorance in a loud, abusive and often profane voice. Their motto: Never an unspoken thought.
Diagnosing the various sports fans
The Coach
I hate The Coach. He consistently ruins my live event experience. This is the guy who is constantly yelling at the players and coaches, telling them what to do because, obviously, the fan knows better than the paid professionals.

Enquirer

Jets should be wary of 0-5 (but feisty) Bengals
NY Post
"Oh man, I watched them (Sunday) and any time you look at a team that played the Dallas Cowboys tough . . . every game they've had has been a tight one," wide receiver Laveranues Coles said. "They could just as well be 5-0 as they are 0-5. They're a scary team to play against whether they are 0-5 or 5-0. They are a very good football team."

Phillips addresses critcism of UK offense
Lexington Herald Leader
"When we were having success, I didn't take it like I knew everything or I was the guru," Phillips said. "I understand that when things are not going well, I'm going to get the criticism. That's fine. That's what I signed up for. We're not doing well offensively, and I accept the criticism."

Upset of Rutgers began UC's momentum
Josh Katzowitz, NY Times
The way Brian Kelly remembers that day in 2006, he was driving on a tollway in Chicago on a recruiting trip for the Central Michigan team he coached when he heard on the radio that Cincinnati had upset the new darling of college football, Rutgers.
He turned to his companion and said of the Cincinnati coach, "Mark Dantonio is going to get the Michigan State job now."

FlemSick of it! Per Marvin, today, "Hang on here you may see something special" LOL....
My RANT from Delhi-
Marvin, aka Howard Stern's Beatle Juice, has drank his own jug of cool aid. What the hell is going on here? No word from ownership (AKA Love GURU) about this debacle???? Bring in Bill Cowher! No, Marvin, we didn't do good things!!!!! Quit it! Stop clapping your hands and saying "let's go" while the team is down 14 pts and 2-minutes to go, LOL, give us a break!!!
PLEASEEEEEEE give Dave Lapham some new questions to ask. He ask too many "soft" "safe" "scared" questions. Ask this Mr. Lapham, Marvin, if we loose all our games this year, will you quit? I think that's a fair question/challenge. Or how about you agree to pull a play submitted by a fan every other down???? Can't be any worse!
Why is it we blitz and still can't get to the QB? The Jets rush 3 dudes and they have Fitzpatrick running for his life? He winds up to throw a "BOMB" and he doesn't realize theres a rusher right behind him who ends up smashing him like cow patty. How many times did he throw deep???? 1x He was throwing balls at everyone's ankles like that heaving little dude that works for DUKE energy who's always running around flipping people off!!
The play calling is simply pathetic. Run, Run, pass 3 yards, punt!! Run, Run, Utecht drops the ball! Punt! Run, Run, pass incomplete off the ankles of TJ, Punt! Run, Run, (Marvin clapping his hands) throw to TJ, short 1 yard, PUNT! Come on man, I can't take it no more!!!
I gotta work a booth next Sunday for charity. How am I going to expect a tip after charging $7.00 for a damn beer???? I guess you'll need to drink more while watching this crap! I'm bringing a flask!!!!!! Be good to the folks in charity booth (we are the one's with teeth!)
Marvin is scared of his coach's and has no back bone! I guess it's time for the fans to bring back out the Mike Brown bag's (I still have mine). Hide your faces and show unity in the stands!!!!!!!!!!! As for a fan who bought tickets this season, I quote infamous Lawerence Taylor of the giants, "I was setup like a Mother F*****!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO DEY!!!!!
