did you personally have a part in directly funding a pro sports team?
i did with my college sports...
i watched a UF womens volleyball game vs Arkansas one early sunday morning b/c it was on TV... only b/c it was the Gators vs somebody else... i was actually yelling at the women vollyball players like i knew what was going on... i only wanted UF to win.. it doesnt matter which sport for me... well doesnt matter much after football, then distant second basketball, then distant distant the rest... |

I didn't go to a big school, so maybe I just don't understand it - but the mentality of some fans is beyond me. It's one thing to cheer for your team. But it's another to constantly put all other teams down because you happened to go somewhere else. I mean, I played in college for awhile and as an athlete I don't even feel the need to rub it in the face of every team we beat. When athletes do it, it is poor sportsmanship. When fans do it, it is indeed obnoxious. |

i think there is an understood line though... at least there is for me... OSU is good.. they know it, i know it.. no mystery there.. so i feel comfortable insulting them b/c they'll be right back in it always... where as I never get all fired up when we beat Kentucky or whoever the flavor of the week is b/c they really never do get up so that part is insulting to somebody who is down...
like i (gasp!) sometimes actually root for FSU to win and be good again so i can feel comfortable bashing them where as now beating them next week is almost expected and isnt as fun to bash them... |

How did I know this was going to turn into Ang's "Interjection About How I Cheer for a Perpetually Successful Big 10 School that I Didn't Attend" thread?
Sit down, OSU just lost at home to Illinois.

Wait wait, is this about how youre sad since Michigan can throw a game against Wisconsin and it wont even matter because Wisconsin has no chance at the conference title this year?
Im sorry. |

Why would beating a classless Michigan team ever make me sad?
I'd be sad if, say, we had lost our chance at a national championship. That didn't happen though. |

I'm sorry. It must be tough.
It must be even tougher knowing you blew the N.C two years in a row.
:toothless
(I'm done now I promise. We can't even get a shot at the N.C so I should just shut up.) |
