    I couldn't find the article on here unless its something you have to pay for and i am not bout to do that. But your comments that Dooley's son has been exposed to all the trolls and dummies on the message boards I find that hard to believe. I think his son by the looks of the photo is pretty young and wouldn't have access to sites like this and the others unless hes been told where to look.So i'm wondering what hes been exposed too? you broughtup volquest that site has always been very pro Dooley. The only site that comes close to being negative toward Dooley is outermonlia and theres alot of Dooley supporters on that site. So where is harm being done to Dooley's son?

    Actually Wes is his sons favorite journalist. And he does have access to these sites. I think his son has enough sense to ignore people like yourself.

  • You guys are lucky to have him. I just hope your fanbase and administration is patient enough to not pull the trigger on him this year. Of course I hope he loses in Athens but winning versus Florida, SC and Mizzou is perfectly acceptable to me.....................

    whats wrong with you? I've said nothing against his father, and i never would. If just asking outloud the pros and cons of Dooley makes me a bad person then i'm afraid Dooley hasn't a chance in hell in making it here with fans like you!

    "...then I'm afraid Dooley hasn't a chance in making it here with fans like you!"
    I'm pretty sure that's the kind of thing he's referring to. What does the nature of his fandom and his opinion of you have to do with Dooley's job security?

    I wasn't referring to his opinion of me! and why would he have any opinions on me or anybody else on a message board?? Its folks like you that hurt the program in the long run. You show no abillity to see the otherside of the agrument. If Dooley is busy having thoughts bout what people have to say on message boards then hes already gone and doesn't even know it.

    NOT DOOLEY. kdlewis. The person you were responding to. Dooley doesn't have the time to read these boards although I'm sure he hears bits and pieces of information randomly from people who do.

    I am hurting the program?!?! Me personally? Holy crap! I knew I would amount to something! All attempts at humor aside, I have read and considered both sides of the argument and have made the educated and informed decision to support CDD. In what way is that hurting the program? I'm being very serious. No joke intended. I'm confused. Please, treat me like a child and explain your point of view in a simple way that I can comprehend.

    I don't think you have considered both sides cause if you did you would respond with something other then smart*** comments back to me. You're educated and informed decision to back Dooley is fine, did i say i had a problem with it? The original post i posted was bout Dooley's son being harmed by message boards. I haven't got access to the article and i haven't seen anything around the net where Dooley is saying his son is having a hard time because "of posters like me" Dooley has enjoyed great support as far as i can tell from most of the boards to the radio so wheres the negativity? That all of you talk bout. Can you direct me to the board that just slams Dooley all day long? I've looked at them all and i find nothing over the top negative bout Dooley. But i do fine plenty of this type of response where the poster if he dares say anything to question Dooley is met with -"your a troll" comment or far far worse if you have ever taken the notion to go over to outermonlia its a swear word a min over there sometimes.If Dooley's kid is being hounded in school over his dad's performance then thats sick no kid has control over the slings and arrows their parents may face in life they and deserve to be left alone. But if Dooley is letting his kid read these boards and he reads something that upsets him then that falls on Dooley. No poster pro or con is responsible for hurt feelings of Dooley's children if he allows access to these boards.

    What you're referring to as my "smart*** comments" is just part of my personality and I don't mean to come off as rude, so I do apologize if I have offended you.

    I spent some time bouncing back and forth between message boards before I found a home here and I can say from experience that ESPN and GoVolsXtra are particularly nasty as far as bad-mouthing Dooley supporters. It could have subsided a bit since my last visit as I get most of my information here now. I did read an article from Adams on GoVolsXtra recently and all the trolls were out in force to respond to it, but I think they flock like a school of piranha to his articles in especially.

    I've never been to outermonlia and I have no wish to investigate. It doesn't sound like a reputable news venue.

    I guess my only question is why you would bother responding to an article you can't read? Without the information that the article provides what stance on that information can you take? At the risk of sounding combative, shouldn't you know what you're talking about before you speak?

    I got this question from one of the resposes here where the poster was quoted as saying-"i just wish Dooley's son wasn't exposed to all the trolls at volquest" that was the statement i was trying to fined information on. And as you know i don't have or can't get access to read the story of which you speak of my comments where aimed at the quote i saw.
