This weblog put up would possibly rub a few of you the incorrect approach, however I 100% agree with ol’ Charlie right here. The Titans received’t cease spitting in Vols followers faces.
It began when the crew first moved to Nashville, 25 years in the past this season. They didn’t pander to Vols followers by having the crew play within the thriving metropolis of Knoxville. The THIRD largest metropolis in Tennessee! I imply, it has a solar sphere for crying out loud. Complete spit within the face.
Then when the crew unveiled new uniforms, they did the unthinkable of sticking with a unfastened variation of their historic shade scheme from their Houston heritage as a substitute of adopting the attractive freeway cone orange that Tennessee followers – and solely Tennessee followers – have come to know and love. That was like hocking a loogie within the faces of Vols followers.
Or how about drafting gamers? Why is it the Tennessee Titans by no means draft Tennessee Vols gamers, aside from once they do?
However like apart from that, when have they ever drafted Tennessee Vols gamers? You’d assume when you needed Vols followers to root in your crew on Sunday, you’ll solely draft Vols. For instance, it’s a particularly sickening incontrovertible fact that the Titans traded as much as draft a quarterback from the Vols rival as a substitute of choosing a hobbling Hendon Hooker whose ACL is extra shredded than receipts from the Jeremy Pruitt period. Half the Titans roster is injured anyway, why wouldn’t they need one other injured man on board? That’s simply pure mucus-coated saliva shot proper in Vols followers’ faces.
Hell, when Jonathan Crompton went professional, he was taken within the fifth spherical and the Titans had FIVE picks earlier than he was drafted. That’s 5 spits. Proper within the face. After which he went to play within the Canadian Soccer League, and the Titans didn’t even attempt to change leagues to make a commerce for him. After which they didn’t even say “sorey, eh” for not pandering. That’s some maple spit to the face!
That kinda reminds all Vols followers of the 2016 NFL Draft when the Titans had the audacity to draft a Heisman Trophy winner named Derrick from the Vols’ BIGGEST rival, quite than drafting one other senior operating again from the orange and white, Ralph Abernathy IV. In the event you’re asking, “Who?!” That’s solely due to the Titans’ unwillingness to pander. Hope you bought a V. Stiviano visor, Vol followers, as a result of there’s some projectile drool heading straight towards your face.
And whereas we’re on the subject of orange and white QBs… It did really feel just like the Titans have been extending an orange-plated olive department once they signed Josh Dobbs final season. Like they have been licking the spit off our faces to apologize. However then they took that licked-up saliva and spit it proper again in our faces by not re-signing him this offseason. Simply blatant disrespect. That man received you a complete of zero video games and also you couldn’t even thank him (and or the loyal VFL’s who help your franchise every week) by handing him a contract? SPIT, MEET FACE.
So yeah, I’m on board with Chuck right here. It’s simply disgusting what the Titans are doing… or NOT doing. Why wouldn’t an NFL franchise pander to the fan base of a college over 2.5 hours away? Who is aware of? As an alternative, they’d quite simply spizz throughout Vols followers’ faces. Vols followers aren’t asking for a lot. They’re merely asking for the Titans to be extra just like the Vols in each approach primarily as a result of it’s too arduous to compartmentalize their fandom from someday to the following. Particularly when these days are back-to-back within the week! In the event you’ve ever tried it, you’ll know. And when you’re not a Vol fan, you definitely wouldn’t get it. Since you don’t have spit in your face.
P.S. Right here’s a fairly sick photoshop I fabricated from Josh Dobbs as a Titan and Vol… What coulda been, ya know?
