        I had renewed my annual membership there the week before the change. I wish I had known. I spent most of my time on the Gen Chat forum, but also enjoyed the old sports forum.
        I do enjoy the editors’ content, but there are a few posters there who act like middle school playground bullies who gang up on any one who dissents. I have stayed in the safe zone, but hated to see how some have been treated. A few treated OscarReb and Lodestar disgracefully.
        A thread this week was making fun of this site. So it wouldn’t surprise me to see a few try what SWarriorreb suggested.
        I am looking forward to see this site as it matures and grows.

            I was wondering the same thing. Inquiring minds want to know.

            Isn’t it nice to have a head ball coach who doesn’t troll his own fan base?

                Last spring, my son and I were in Oxford for a Saturday baseball game. We were right above 1st base. Austin came down the aisle below us and kids started lining up. He patiently signed autographs and posed for pictures. Then he approached a guy in a wheelchair. Austin kneeled down to this guy’s level and they talked for a while. Then Austin left, but came back in a few minutes with food and a soft drink for the man in the wheelchair.
                I became a big Austin Simmons fan that day.

                    I’m disappointed, but know the players and coaches who are staying on are hurting a lot more than I am.
                    I am so proud of this group of players. Physically, we could have been down several scores. The defense was, at times, getting gashed, but they refused to quit and they kept playing.

                    We just hung in there and had a chance to win.

                    I’m looking forward to seeing the Rebels come here to Nashville in early September. Go Rebels!

                        Agreed. No profanity, no putting others down and no one seems to be constantly trying to stir the pot and create controversy.

                            I have an old fishing buddy who has 3 girls. When they were all still at home, he used to call his house Estrogen City.

                              1969 is the year I became a full fledged Ole Miss fan. Maybe I was just jumping on the band wagon then, but I’ve stayed with them through thick and thin for 56 years. This year, I’m just letting the good times roll and loving every minute of it.

                                With as much grace as I can muster, I hope none of them ever get the chance to coach in another playoff game at another school.

                                  I am going to trust Coach Golding on this one.

                                  My biggest concern in the playoffs going in was that we would fall flat on our face and then the riff raff of the fan base would attack Keith Carter and Pete Golding as being weak, inept, having a WAOM moment, …..
                                  I was cautiously optimistic about what the Tulane game would look like. Man was that an electric atmosphere. Given the context, it might be the best day I have ever spent in VHS.
                                  Then the Sugar Bowl, what a night.

                                  I am so happy for Keith Carter. He has been a leader and made great decisions in the face of constant criticism and impossible situations.

                                  What a time to be able to say “I am an Ole Miss Rebel”.
