Dear Tyson Summers: Please Start Coaching
Georgia Southern

Dear Coach Tyson Summers,

Actually, I might retract the coach part. I believe you've been anything but a coach this year, honestly. Wait. Make that two years. With your 2-11 record in the past two seasons, you begin to wonder how can you even call yourself a coach. You have the players who have the talent. Stop trying to be everyone's best friend and start being a real coach.

This season Georgia Southern University is 0-4. The last time that this happened has been quite a long time. Actually, the last time we had this kind of season, it's been said that we shut down our program completely. Tyson, what are you going to do when the Georgia Southern athletic board stops giving money? Where are your scholarships going to come from? Where are you even going to get recruits from? Here are your answers Summers: You won't. You won't have a solid program.

You have put a D1, rising team in the toilet.

Actually, maybe a few feet under the ground.

Stop trying to be a buddy. Be a coach. Learn to push your men as hard as they can go. Learn to live with the traditions this amazing school has. Learn to respect your players and the talent they bring to this team.

Faithful season ticket holders are unable to handle the upset of these last two seasons and have begun giving up their tickets because it's not worth the money anymore.

However, we can't blame this all solely on Summers. We have TK and Herbert to blame as well. When will our administration see that football is the basis of this school? Academics are important, but football is the main money draw to Eagle Nation. The more we lose, the more we lose athletes, the more we lose money.

It's that simple.

Administration, please, I'm begging you. Find a coach who will bring us back to victories again.

Sincerely,

A concerned, yet true, Blue Eagles fan

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
