I really do.
My father just informed me that one of his friends at church e-mailed John Cohen and told him that he didn't like him "calling out his players in the press." Apprently Cohen e-mailed him back saying that "Maybe that he shouldn't have done that and that he would think about it." Then the guy who sent the e-mail was mad because the next day Cohen chewed out Whitney in the dugout. Nevermind the fact that no one knows what Whitney did and may very well have done something to deserve it. Nervermind that I've seen Jackie and Croom do this to players as well.
Good God. We FINALLY get someone that is TRYING to win, and then we have "fans" that pull this shit. I wonder how many people e-mailed Croom when he said something stupid? I wonder how many people sent Polk a letter saying to stop focusing on the NCAA and focus on the team he is TRYING to coach? I mean holy shit. Am I the only one here who sees the double standard? Why do people give morons like Croom and Polk a pass and then Cohen yells at a guy- in all likelihood for a good reason- and people feel the need to send him e-mails.
State fans that are not used to trying are going to have to make an adjustment. I don't about Mullen yet as far as his personality on the field and such yet, but as far as Cohen he is known to be an intense guy. He wants to win worse than anything in the world. He wants to win for MSU and wants to take us to the next level. And he's not going to let anyone stand in the way of that. People say that he's not going to get players because he yells- that's stupid- especially considering that we already have either the top or second best player in the state locked up as a jr. and 1/3 of this years Dandy Dozen not to mention some talented players from Alabama. I'll tell you what he's not going to get- pussies that don't care about winning. And I don't want them either. People need to understand that when Cohen calls a player out- and I'm not talking media here, I'm talking during a game in the dugout or at practice and yells at them, he's not trying to break them down. He's trying to make them better so that the TEAM can play better.
I just don't understand this loser mentality that people have, and furthermore it pisses me off to no end that someone would be so self righteous enough- someone who doesn't no shit about baseball much less winning or coaching it- would have the damn gall to e-mail the coach and then be proud because he got a response. Big man indeed.
That is all. I know that we're not the ones that need to hear this, but I just needed to rant because my Dad "had to go" after he stated that he didn't think that the team would respond to Cohen" and I shot him down with the fact that we have made a four game improvement over last year with a less talented team and the fact that our stats have improved over last year in all categories. He said, "Well, that's true...ughhhhh...gotta go bye." I just needed to vent.
Someone feel free to copy, cut, and paste this on the Lake where the people need to hear it- free or premium, I don't care.
