Shotgun...IMO it has to do with the way the negative is presented. Your post below is a good example to me. You?re discussing a topic of importance in a manner that is not ?woe is us?.

Eeyore seems to post here a lot. Example. Oh great. My shoe is still untied. I?ll probably fall again....just like yesterday and the day before.

Instead of that , how about.....Well crap. My shoe is untied. How do I fix that. I think I?ll tie that shoe!

Don't you figure it's important to have a presence in Alabama since they are in our recruiting foot print and Mississippi doesn't produce 25 SEC caliber players?

Under Mullen and with Collins, we got good players out of Bama. Benny, DeRunnya, Errol, Mixon, etc but we don't seem to have as much traction there right now and I'm not sure why.

Not being negative. Just bringing up worthy topics.
