Hey James, this means you too!

LionJim will help you with some basic mathematical principles that should help you answer Dave’s post-game questions this coming Sat afternoon.

Gatorade's marketing department really missed a golden opportunity by not developing a special Gatorade flavor variety for the "keyboard warrior/athlete". Slogan would be, "for the dedicated fan living in his mama's basement, who never played a down of football in his life, yet can beat Tom Landry in Techno-football every game, we have the sports drink for you to keep hydrated while you type your wisdom all over social media since you are the greatest coach who ever lived, but no one listens to your drivel"...

Social media is the bane of our society. It encourages provocateurs, narcissists, and the truly ignorant to have a platform to expound their non-solicited “opinions”. One’s mental health significantly improves when avoiding X, FB, etc.

Given all of that perhaps the coach should refrain from using it.

I agree with you 100%, which is why I never got involved with those platforms to begin with.

It's not "coach" he has an internal social meeting team that puts out these things on his social media platforms. Just like all CEOs, Presidents, etc.

At the coach's direction or approval. In any case, he can instruct his "team" to stop posting should he determine it's in his best interests to do so.

Fair point, but we have established Franklin's real talent is that of a marketing leaning CEO. He doesn't appear to call defense or offense on the field(or if he does firing MY was the wrong guy), so this is kind of what our "coach" does.

Not sure that I agree, but if so, that's a huge problem.

His happy talk has worn thin. Only his fan boys listen to his crap and believe it. His X post invited people to take shots. He has become a PR disaster. His high school coaching rah rah BS is an insult to thinking people, so they are pushing back. Good for them.

Some people still think its 1980 and we have student/athletes and inspiring coaches building young men. Those days are gone. We have a head coach making $8.5 million (before bonuses) and players driving free luxury cars and making huge NIL dollars. It is a professional game now. Accepting this high school booster talk is just plain stupid. People have had enuf of this grifting.
