    I shouldn’t have to preface everything with, “this is my opinion” or “I think.”

    If I say that Jody Allen is a shitty owner, am I presenting it as fact?

    Get to work @BLAZINGGIANTS, you have a few years to become a billionaire and buy the team.

    But do you see the point in my post relating to what you are saying?

    And in my experience here, comments like those are unavoidable. Sluff it off with a grain of salt friend. :)

    It doesn’t hurt my feelings. I dislike people who think they’re superior fans because they’re happy being mediocre.

    Just remember not all fans happy with mediocrity have a feeling of superiority. :cheers:

    That’s fine. You can support the team however you’d like.

    I dislike the people who seem to see red any time someone says something that they perceive as negative about the team.

    Phil Knight is 84. PAC12 (and Oregon to some degree) on shaky ground. $2 to 2.2 billion is too low to get it done. Coincidental timing (not) by Allen on making a statement she didn’t have to make. Her statement isn’t bad news. It isn’t news.

    Most everything can be benefited from constructive criticism if it is taken correctly. I am optimistic that you are wrong on your take about our future, but by no means think my optimistic opinion is more valid or less valid than yours.

    Interesting.

    So if you and I both eat something spicy, and I say, “this food is way too spicy” is that a fact or is it too spicy for me? What if you think it’s the right amount of spicy?

    This is green font, right? Lol.

    Terry stotts is an awful coach.

    But some think he's great.
