Greetings, my fellow posters, participants, lurkers, etc.,

I haven't reared my head in recent months, instead letting you the people police yourselves, which I will continue to do. I would simply like to remind you of a few things.

First and foremost (as if you needed reminding), these are monumental times in TU football, right this very minute and on the horizon. Let's enjoy the ride we're on.

I've noticed in recent weeks a slight increase in vulgar language and ask that you please check yourselves before dropping expletives in your posts. This board is about class, as are the majority of TU fans. Let's not forget that. Also, many of our wonderful posters have been here for years and get by just fine and dandy without the use of an "F-bomb" or something related.

Yesterday, I visited the UTEP board and was appalled at the language that was left unedited. Obviously, that is their right to do so. However, the terms of agreement on ITS.com state clearly the use of vulgar language will not be tolerated.

I believe this to be a reasonable request.

Other business ... It's that time of year again! Where coaching rumors swirl day and night. We can fully expect to hear many things about Coaches Graham and Malzahn in the coming weeks and months, 99.999999999 percent of them untrue.

That said, I think it best we avoid as much of the controversy on the free board as possible. Let's not let the visitors with their unsubstatiated rumors bog down our message board and the good times we're having.

If you have any thoughts or would like to discuss anything with me, please email me at TheBigKielbasa@gmail.com

Thanks,
The Big Kielbasa

Yes it is, and very appropriate....We have been blessed(this year and
last) with an almost uniquely(I know that's redundant) talented staff
for a non-BCS school that isn't a traditional top twenty.....

Todd Graham and Gus Malzahn have been great for the University of
Tulsa, and should be allowed to live out their dreams, what ever they
are--With our blessings!! Because of them, I'm not so concerned about
where they go, or when....

They will leave our program(if they do) so much better than they
found it!!

Go TU, and let's give Mr. (I'll never forget ol' what's his name-
is it Price per chance?) a good lesson in proper student behavior
toward visiting teams and

coaches.....

Aren't we kind of backsliding on these rules as of late, BK? I'm kinda a minor offender, but I've been seeing less family friendly stuff as of late. I don't mind as long as it is not personally insulting material.

Should we done it down, O Holy Father of Oosasaedness?
 
TU messageboard has always shown class and I think it always will becuase of the majority that particiapte.

Merry Christmas everyone

In light of recent developments, I hereby move to legalize the most vile forms of profanity allowable on this particular board.
