Message: [QUOTE="KaiserUEO, post: 2000522, member: 272"] since we are all being honest, that's wonderful to hear. but its not surprising and I get why you would. in another post you compared them to 'cattle', i get that too and glad you used it. its a line I have often used on here in an attempt to smack some reality into the board denizens who sit up high and pass judgment without truly understanding what it took to even get a look at possibly wearing a Syracuse jersey. these coaches know what they are doing and sometimes the brutal truth hurts, but I would hope everyone does what is best for them in the long run. all anyone can ever do is look out for #1. if its riding the pine and getting a degree, then fine. if its transferring and sitting out hoping the grass is greener, then fine. if they just want to play and they drop a level, then fine. even if not switching positions because you don't want to, but it may prolong your jersey wearing timeframe, then fine. just look out for #1, because #1 isn't ever going away. queue Bill Parcells... [I]When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf, And the world makes you King for a day, Then go to the mirror and look at yourself, And see what that guy has to say. For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife, Who judgement upon you must pass. The feller whose verdict counts most in your life Is the guy staring back from the glass. He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest, For he's with you clear up to the end, And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test If the guy in the glass is your friend. You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum, And think you're a wonderful guy, But the man in the glass says you're only a bum If you can't look him straight in the eye. You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years, And get pats on the back as you pass, But your final reward will be heartaches and tears If you've cheated the guy in the glass.[/I] [/QUOTE]
