Letter Writer Berates Fans for Booing Curry, Sends Best Wishes

I was very disappointed by the booing that some of our fans did when Ronald Curry entered in the second half of the ECU game. No fans should ever boo one of their own players, especially a player who has given so much to his football team and school like Curry has done the previous three years. I understand people will argue that Darian Durant has added a much-needed spark to our offense this season. However, I also realize that Curry has done the same thing throughout his career and will continue to do so if given the chance. Curry can lead our team to victory, as evident by his gutsy performance in the fourth quarter of the ECU game when he led our team to crucial first down conversions that helped seal the game. Now that our team is winning once again, I believe that Curry along with Durant deserve our full support and not even one boo from fans. Especially since many of those same booing fans started cheering less than a minute later when Curry was scrambling for first downs. My best wishes are with the Tar Heels, and especially Curry, for the rest of the season.
