I don't care if you've never listened to a single minute of the content Peter and I have put out.

I don't care if you think that I am a loudmouth moron who doesn't deserve a platform.

I don't care if you think my opinions are completely wrong on every single level.

I don't care if you are only a Billiken Basketball fan.

If you've ever complained about Guy Phillips.

Please listen or watch the first 15-20 minutes. What was allowed to transpire during the introductions at the Field Hockey match was unacceptable and I promise you the title and thumbnail are NOT hyperbole in any way shape or form.

Even if it was hyperbole, I'm always down to bash Chris May, lol. Can't wait to listen after work.

We want to be clear here: this is not about bashing anyone. This is about right and wrong. It's about the hypocrisy of preaching gratitude while neglecting to show gratitude and respect for your student athletes.

This seems to have been a consistent issue during the May era.

Attention to detail costs nothing, so it’s not a money issue. I would say not paying attention to detail is sometimes a SLU trademark (not marketing the Bronze Boot game, Billikens night at the ballpark seemed like amateur hour, etc..)

Sad.   How many alums living in the area would say "if you don't care, why should we care?"      In the past few years, I've travelled all over the Southeast and Mid Atlantic to see SLU teams whenever I could.    I cant say that I've ever hear a PA announcer mispronounce one of our player's name.    Although when we played a baseball game at Stetson University,  the ticket did say Saint Lewis on it.

No excuse for what happened and you were right to call them out, but no way could I listen to that for 20 min. 

Fair. The rant evolved into a larger discussion of how the issue is a microcosm of the fans complaints regarding the athletic department and the leadership over the last decade. But I really appreciate you taking the time to hear me out on this one.

It’s the off-season, I get it. One of the rare times I found myself hitting fast forward. Keep up the good work
