I feel kind of guilty saying anything critical. I sure don't want to say anything bad about the kids. Hell, they are just kids. I love every one of them. On the other hand, I yell at MY kids all the time, when they screw up. So I don't think its fair that if you criticize a bit that you get lambasted.
I'll bet all those 18 and 19 year olds in Iraq got screamed at and yelled at a helluva lot. That is part of becoming a man or woman. I guess there is a fine line there. I'm, really, more pissed at the coaches for not having a better game plan. Afterall, Mizzou's defense isn't very highly rated, yet they came into our house and punked us. All of that being said, we are on the right track. Within the next couple of years, we will become a Big XII and national powerhouse.
My question is, where do you draw the line? I think that it is very easy to get emotional because you love the team so much. It hurts when they get beat up. Then you take that pain and vent a bit and it comes across as criticism of the kids and/or program. These young men will be all right.
