SPORTS SPEAK UP!

I’M PROUD TO SAY I’ve attended almost every Lobo home baseball game, and several out of town games over the past 7 years and will continue to do so in the future until such time as the Pride pass becomes too expensive. I’m sure a price increase is on the horizon given the irresponsi­bility of UNM in adequately overseeing its overall sports financials. To see UNM dump the baseball program would be a travesty given the loyal fan base it has and the hard work and great GPAs the players put forth.

IN THE LAST couple of weeks, I have had the opportunit­y to watch several games in the World Cup. One thing I have to comment on is many of the players are particular­ly skilled in dramatic arts. Often times, the slightest brush by an opposing player causes them to fall and cry out in great pain. It is too funny.

MIKE TORREZ: When writing about “Columbia” respecting its flag and anthem, please have enough respect to spell that country’s name right: it’s Colombia.

MIKE: IN POLAND, the police don’t shoot unarmed black men, unlike here (the reason for “taking a knee,” remember?). Besides Putin is not exactly known for tolerating dissent.

LARRY THE VOL: As my Alabama father-in-law would say, only a UT fan would vote to end UNM football.

I AM COMPLETELY annoyed with all of you Lobo football haters. I am a lobo football season ticket holder and I have been for many years. I love the tailgating and going to the games and you people want to squander my fun. I will be completely devastated if they get rid of Lobo football.
