This is so true it isn't even a joke, it's a fact.

From tthe fall of 2004 to late 2020 I was an absolutely rabid Tech fan.

I am an alumnus and I was in the stands for a lot of big games of the last decade and a half. In 2006 my buddy and I stayed up all night just to get into the front row of Gameday for the Notre Game game.

I almost got arrested after the Miracle on Techwood because I shouted "Go home you f***ing losers!" at the FSU coaches when they were coming down from the box after the game.

Before the ACC network I made sure to have the right combination of streaming, broadcast, and cable so I could watch games no matter what.

Don't tell me I'm not a fan.

Not to get into tmi but between sick relatives and small children I just couldn't justify paying attention to GT Football when I knew I was going to get embarassing under performance.

The point I am trying to make is I am exactly the fan you want reengaged. I am watching again because now I finally have a reason to.

Wait, you can get arrested for shouting that at people? I really need to change what I say to all the stingtalkers' moms when I finish with them...

It felt implied by being called out for not paying attention to worst Football I am likely to see in my lifetime.

If you dropped out of GT Football in the last year I don't blame you.

Can is short for fanatic. A fanatic doesn’t stop watching when the team is doing poorly. If you stopped watching, then, by definition, you stopped being a fan (fanatic).

Looks like you’re a fan when Tech is winning but when they’re down you could care less. We call that in the Marine Corps Fairweather.

By the time we lost to UVA my full blown apathy towards Clown Shoes had settled in and this year I actively avoided GT Football.

Key's presser has given me a reason to watch because for the first time in three years I think I might get a different kind of football.

I don't think we can beat Pitt, four days doesn't undo three years, but I might see a normal loss with good effort and not some embarassing clown show.

Then again I might be kidding myself. I guess I'll find out Saturday at 8 pm.

I dropped off about the same time. Key probably won't get me back watching. Hope we make a good hire.

For me it wasn't just the losses, it was the losses and that I disliked the Collins ethos. To me it wasn't Tech. Tech is practicality, toughness, no nonsense, and class.
