If it gets posted twice, you will just have twice the enjoyment in reading it:<br /><br />"I completely agree with Nick and Mike. I guess that not being responsible hasn't changed much, except the quantity of trash, since I regularly attended games many, many years ago. I won't say how long ago, but Jerry Burns was the head coach, and for most of the home games, the first UI unit to cross the 50-yard line was the band. But, I digress.<br /><br />I would like to think that we fans did a better job of policing the area "back in the day," but I'm not that naive.<br /><br />I do have a question: Crushed cans aren't recyclable? That seems odd since I think in most states they are. Here in SoCal, a lot of people crush their cans, if for no reason they take up less space.<br /><br />Also, back then, Boy Scout troops, and possibly middle and high schools pretty much cleaned up the trash from the stadium, but that was probably before recycling. Regardless, everyone needs to be more responsible with their trash. If you drink it or eat it, dispose of it probably.<br /><br />Thus endeth the sermon for the day.<br /><br />Go Hawks!"LJHawkeyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103498774067027093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30130444.post-85901081738310543852012-09-12T21:54:25.187-05:002012-09-12T21:54:25.187-05:00Nick, you are spot on again.

I will never understand this culture where coaches are idolized, criminal activities of athletes and fans are brushed off, and trashing property, public and private, is not given a thought. <br /><br />I love sports and played many sports for years. For the life of me, I will never understand the insane fans that attend sporting events. They are obnoxious in the pursuit of their "fandom".
