This place is the damnedest place I’ve ever seen. We won the freakin game. First time we’ve beaten UK back to back IN A LONG TIME. I said it after the Jax St game and I’ll say it again. We’re in NO position to be upset with a win. ESPECIALLY a SEC win.
FIND SOME JOY

Some are not happy whether we win or lose - misery is their friend.
They are pis-ed if we lose and pis-ed if we win. Why watch? You're not going to be happy.

Same goes for the basketball team. There is more interest from this board when we lose. We are 4-0. Crickets.
We became 4-0 at 2 AM.
Who in the world could watch that?
We are a lot more competitive than I thought we would be and if we keep it up people will get on board.
A friend asked me about the game, I said, "The score says we won, but the forum says we lost."
I’m not sure which posts you’re taking about, but the game thread was pretty grim most of the game because the offense played like crap most of the game.
It was a pretty bad night for Dowell.
But we won a game when we didn’t play well and easily could have lost.
And I’ll ALWSY be happy when we beat UK.

Contrary to one of your posts in another thread, the defense played well. We struggled to get pressure on their QB most of the night but got it when it mattered.
I try to be fair. I've said many times that Beamer overachieved in his first 2 seasons here. This season.... blah. I had us going 7-5, losing to UGA, UT, TAM, UNC and clemson. How in the world we lost to Florida is beyond me. Missouri was better than anyone thought they'd be. I stated when Missouri hired Drinkwitz that they got a good one. In his 4th season there, I am certain that I'm not alone in that thinking. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Beamer has earned to be given at least as much time as Muschamp was (going into a 5th season). His first 2 seasons here says so, imho.
Regarding our basketball coach Lamont Paris: for some reason that I don't get, it seems a few people have wanted him fired even before his first game as our Head Coach. He has exceeded expectations, on the court, since he has been here. And his recruiting has been solid.
Bottom line: we have 2 Head Coaches who have shown in their brief time here, potentially in the next 20 years, the ability to make us nationally relevant in their respective sports. Yes, by all means, criticize them when it's warranted. I've done so. But, pat them on the back when it's merited as well. As the OP says, "find some joy". Stop with the constant misery.

Great post. Drink had a losing record before this year. He’s done a great job. Their admin saw his vision and invested in it when it was popular. It’s paying off.
To become 4-0, we beat four different teams. It's been crickets all season, not just after the 4th win.
LOL!!! Another Sunshine Pumper cry'n' ... "Nobody likes us. Everybody hate on us!!!"
Adios!!!
Still in football mode. It’s been good to see us win some in basketball after so many years of early season incompetence. I haven’t had a chance to tune into a game yet, but I did read that Chico Carter might be feeling some remorse about xferrimg to DePaul
