Their "entitlement" entitles me to not give a shit and not come to games to watch prima donna's. It's kinda of like Lebron spewing his politics. No one is paying him for his political opinions. I don't need 18-22 year olds who are now being paid to play to tell my why I should do something they think I should be doing, which let's just be real here for a moment. It isn't about the fan base at all. It's basically "hey I'm doing good now, look at me. I need more people looking at me." LMAO. That's literally all that is. So, the irony here is that the one who is clueless is yourself if you think the arena should be fuller. Clearly the fan base has already spoken and made your perspectives as worthless as players telling the fans what they should do with their time.

I’m not sure what you expect them to do to “earn” having people support them in person at the arena beyond winning and creating a culture of community. I personally am flying down from NYC for both the ladies game at 2 and the men’s at 6, driving to one after the other. I’m going because I am excited they’re both having good seasons and putting an entertaining product on the court in my view. The fact that you think people are clueless for saying the team deserves better crowds shows that you’re not the kind of person who they want there anyway

"Even though they are having a successful season to this point, I refuse to support the program because of recent history, but I will continue to post on the fan message board telling everyone I choose not to support them" is an interesting take. To each their own I guess.
Good or bad, this is my school and my team. I love my school, and this season has been fun to watch. If that makes me a naïve fan or alum, then I guess I am. Oh well. I think, in a weird way, it's cool to be an alum and supporter of a mid-major school. We aren't flooded with band wagon fans or "sidewalk alumni". Would be willing to bet that 90% of the posters on this board either have degrees from Middle, or are currently enrolled. It's personal for us because it's OURS, and that's awesome.
Like I said before, the negativity on here gets old. It's supposed to be fun to be a fan. Yeah, losses can be tough, but man, we get to play again next game, next season, etc.
I am excited for the biggest game of the season tomorrow. It's Western week. We should be talking trash about Bowling Green Community College instead of taking shots at each other.
MTOleBlue, that level of commitment for tomorrow is next level. Now THAT's being a supporter. Cheers to you, bro.
See ya'll at The Glass House. #BeatWestern
