It's not our place to judge who they are as people or how they live their lives, and 99% of people criticizing them aren't criticizing those areas. Why would these players give that crap an ounce of thought anyway? You're going to let some stranger tell you how to be and how to live?
People can criticize on field performance by the coaches and players all they want to. It's part of being a fan. If you're going to sit here and tell me fans have the right to voice their positive opinions but not voice the things that should improve, I'd love to know what aspect of life you know of that only comes with a positive side and no negatives. It's all about how you let it affect you. I get judged by the job I do in my line of work almost every day, and usually by people that don't even know my name let alone on a personal level. Stop being so f'ing hypocritical. These coaches and players aren't immune to this stuff just because they are Huskers. They are people, and everybody deals with criticism. Get over it.
I would guess its just the opposite. I don't know what you do but I'd guess you're judged very little on the job that you actually do. Like most of us you get a pass on the majority of things you don't do correctly or to the level that's actually expected. As someone who's employed hundreds of people I've yet to find someone who does the job to the level that I find perfectly acceptable. Every employee has had a weakness, good days and bad days. Everyone makes mistakes almost every day big or something as small as texting someone when they shouldn't be using their phone. By all accounts when you get to work it should be 100% about the job for the company. There shouldn't be chit chat, personal calls, texts, people on the internet. You should run late or clock out early. You should be there for every customer 100%, make every product 100% correctly so there is never a mistake or the product never fails. Every time you don't have a perfect day at what you do that you're under performing. How often do you get called out for it? I'd bet very seldom. The fact is there is a level of acceptance that goes along with everyone's performances, strengths, weaknesses, and allowances are given. Why shouldn't we give that same thing to players and coaches just because their imperfections are more public?
