90 bucks? Sounds ok to me

It appears that UT students are pissed that they must now pay to watch football at Neyland.

This is an absurdly ridiculous concept. Granted, UT is one of the few major universities that hasn’t made students explicitly pay for football games.  football games at UT are a gift from the Lord, or at least Phillip Fulmer-given.  Here is a comment from one student:

am I going to sit here and tell you that I am a superior athlete? No. I’m not. I’m not the fastest, not the strongest, not the most agile…. but somehow when I’m out doing something athletic, I play beyond my ability because I play with heart and effort. There are way better “athletes” than me where I work, yet somehow I can work 2-3 times harder than they can (and yes, it is measurable). How does this happen? Heart and effort. We have guys who have numbers that stack up against what any other school has. They have the same speeds, weight room numbers…. the same frames as other teams we are facing. Our players have all the athletic tools they need to be the best. The problem is that they don’t want it more. Hence, I say the effort isn’t there. When we have consistent top 10 recruiting classes, yet we don’t even get close to being in the top 10 in the polls, they can’t say it’s because we don’t have the athletes other schools have. We just don’t have the heart.”

    There are some dumb ass people in Knoxville thinking this shit up. Use your brain, raise the activity fee but don’t specify that it’s for game tickets. That was easy.
