And no, I'm not talking about Coach Slinker.

I'm talking about Mandy McKinley...who as near as I can tell has pissed off, at one time or another, every good fan that we have.

If they keep her on staff (and they will--RV never fires anyone)....my donation is going way down next year.

I gave those incompetents over in the Ath. Dept.....a nice chunk of change this year: $5,000.

One of the things which they trumpet that you receive for a gift of that size: You get to sit in the Athletic Director's box for a game.

So...last August (or early September)...I sent Mandy an e-mail, stating that I would defer, and let other fans have the better games on the schedule...and that I'd take the Western Kentucky game.

Know what I was told? "I'll have to ask Rick about it....and see if it's okay."

Well she never got back to me. Ever. And they never offered me a chance to be there for any another game.

So as you might imagine, I was one pissed off camper, yesterday, freezing my ass off, as others were going up to RV's box. I guarantee you there were a lot of folks in there, who hadn't given anywhere near $5,000.

I'm thinking about letting Bataille know about this. I doubt she'll care....EITHER.

So here's the moral to this story: If you think, hey I'd love to give my school's Athletic Department even more money......DON'T. At least not while this staff is in charge of things. (Give them just enough to get what you want--seating in Section E, for example). That's it.

Wow, that sucks big time man. But I've heard all sorts of crappy stories about her, so not shocking.

Yes, not surprising at all.

And also, for saying something about it instead of just getting screwed around without complaint, you will be considered a "bad fan".

You've got that right, my friend. Instead of viewing it as a legitimate complaint and trying some way to rectify....all it would do is further ensconse me on the Athletic Department Shit List. (Which if you get on it....you never get off).

I'm still paying for....amongst other things....daring to gripe about Athletic Department employees, who showed up at Hooter's, and talked through (and ruined) the very first Todd Dodge radio show of the year.

Aaron is right on about being labeled.

Somehow when I read the title I just knew it had to be Mandy.

Man, that more I think about that, the more pissed off I get about the situation. John was trying to do something altruistic and just got F'd over for it.

RV thinks shes great. I just don't see one redeeming quality in her - not one. My only hope is that she is hired away.
