Subject: What Will Be the Straw to Break the Camels Back?

On feb. 8th the st. joes game, a few fordham students who were sick of the Hill/McLaughlin/Gray trio openly protested Coach Bob Hill in particular.

-No other fans really joined in, yet few fans really support Coach Hill.
-A member of the team publicly embarrassed himself, his team and the university by going into the stands to intimidate these fans.
-Members of security and Administration focused their efforts on the chanters, and not on the fans who did get rowdy and physically angry. (pushing, yelling, threatening, maybe hitting).
-This event was not covered in any local papers, while they did cover fans chanting to fire mike jarvis and that was peaceful!

-After that incident no home games have seen any protest.
-What was done with those students?
-WHY are people so reluctant to make a stand against this regime.
-I am not saying that the actions at the st. Joes game were right, but I think people who care as much as we all do about Fordham and Fordham athletics should make a real stand..
Letters TO O'HARE and the ADMINISTRATION can be thrown away and ignored! Not attending games can be explained away, as can less donation money (the economy) VOICES IN PUBLIC CANNOT.

ramnasty thank you for providing this forum, because i wouldn't want to waste room on the bball board with this, just hope that a few people read it and think.
