My husband is a dyed in the wool, born and raised, life long Tennessee fan. He’s been through the Majors era and has seen bad times before. He gets up every morning before he heads to work, goes online and reads all the news from Knoxville. Every Saturday he gets hyped up for “the game” – the world stops for Tennessee Football.

His passion to watch the game each Saturday is dwindling. He wanted to go watch Samford play Appy State last Saturday, instead of watching the game on TV. Now his daily wish is to read the headlines that Fulmer has resigned. I’ve tried to get him interested in posted his comments and thoughts about the games and the situation at hand. He is one of the original Vols web site builders – www.volsfootball.com – but as the Vols have been going downhill so has his desire to maintain the site. I wouldn’t label him a band wagon fan, far from it, just a very disappointed fan.

I asked my husband if he wanted to order this week’s PPV of the TN-MSU game he said no, but I ordered it anyhow. I’m sure he’ll watch the game with me, but it will probably just make him mad. Neither of us expect anything new or different. It will still be the same predictable offense and the same predictable defense. He’s already grumbled about the “PC BS” of name six permanent captains. He told me it should have only been two. We both agreed it should have been from the beginning of the season with none of this rotating captains nonsense.

When he asked me why I ordered the PPV, I said I needed something to blog about.

ps…still haven’t heard from Mike Hamilton…
