I will never be able to seperate my loyalties for the school and all of the alumni. I can't say one over the other, but I respect your thoughts.
With this said, if a player says disparaging comments, through social media or other, I lose some respect. You can have your challenges with things of the past, but broadcasting it bothers me. I'm not a huge fan of social media, so this could be said about many other items put out to the world.
