Yes. I wouldn't sign that either, "reality."

I didn't say I'm taking my toys home or any such nonsense. I've been at the games for over 30 years - have bought the tickets and worn the gear. That won't change.
Were you there?

As for a bandwagon - I'm waiting to see that. So far, I've got plenty of extra empty seats in Texas Hall to accommodate you and your bandwagon.

You apparently didn't read Spaniolo's announcement. He did not promise anything. He just vaguely indicates an intention to pursue an arena, and to have the AD write a report about soccer and golf, and to maybe consider football again within 5 years. It's mealy-mouthed and reptilian, kind of like signing your name "reality."
