It's not just one or two hog fans. Every single Arky fan on this ran their dick sucker before this season started.

I dunno, I find that if you divorce yourself from the Halloween franchise name, its actually a better flick than 4,5,6,8, and the two Rob Zombie remakes

I loved the Zombie remakes (moreso the first one). I noticed you left off 7 (H20), but I thought Resurrection wasn't bad minus Busta Rhymes. Halloween 3 just may have been the worst horror movie of all time. This is a genre that includes Seed of Chucky, Leprachaun in the Hood 1 & 2, Monsturd, and Killer Clowns from Outer Space.

Just because something happened in the past doesn't make it similar to something else that happened in the past. Two different situations, the only similar thing was one big idiot being involved.


ATL moved on and is doing better than they were with Petrino.
Ark moved on and WAS doing better without Nutt (until now).

Both of them happened long enough ago that the fans involved should have the capacity to move on.

Why is this such a difficult concept?

Have Arkansas fans really moved on or did they just misdirect their hostility towards the AD?

I saw some hog fans at a restaurant recently and I wanted to give them my condolences but knew there just wasn't a way to do that without appearing condescending.

I do feel bad for them but after all the shite they spewed since last year about how they were going to win it all this year Petrino or not, it's hard not to wonder if it's karma.

But hey, at least you didn't earn the nickname Buttchugg U.

Did you even read my original comment? I said atl fans still moaning about Petrino are as bad as hog fans still bitching about Nutt. So, yes there are some. And there are some now bitching about the AD, probably some of the same people. I still stand by my statement that after this time and some success both the hog fans and atl fans should move on. Do you disagree?

The hog fans on here aren't really all that delusional, most are sarcastic as frick and can't keep from running a joke into the ground. Most however are pretty realistic. I think the poll thread had us weighed out around 8-4, maybe a bit better. I bet the average fan base here thought about the same, maybe a bit worse. Not even most condescending LSU fans saw THIS level of meltdown though.

Now Hogville had people rationalizing a national championship...thay was just stupid.

I hope Arky is good again soon. I am really liking that rivalry.

I have felt sincere sympathy for Hog fans from the beginning. I feel sick for John L. Smith. I know he's a goofball, but he's been through so much in a short time that would break someone if it happened privately much less publicly in the harsh world of college football.

It has made it harder to be sympathetic when Arky fans try to shite on our first and only SEC win especially after our team has sucked royally for ages, but I do press on to the feelings of my better side to support my Hog friends.

I have my moments.

Every fan base has some assholes for fans. I'm not proud to admit this, but I took my Dad to the LSU/Arkansas in Little Rock a few years ago and he got so wasted that he attempted to heckle a few Razorback fans. The guy is pushing 70, could barely stand up and says to two women dressed head to toe in red:

Dad: "You ladies are, ha ha haa, (cackle) wearing the wrongg colors."

Two Razorback women: (laughing) Umm. Is your Dad ok?

Me: Don't do this to me, father. This is why Mom divorced you. I'm sorry, my father is a bit...

Two Razorback women: Drunk?

Me: of an a-hole. He just happens to be drunk.


He later passed out at the end of the 1st quarter and I had a group of 10 or so Hog fans take pictures with him, Weekend at Bernie's style. I then created a Facebook page entitled "Who feels like babysitting (Dad's name) at the next home game?"

Perhaps a little overboard, but frick 'em. A drunk and obnixous fan should be called out, regardless of whether he's your Dad or not.

Im not sure who you're referring to, but i gotta say, A&M is looking pretty damn good. Yall deserved the win in every way. Johnny Football is just a beast. I really don't get the whole "frick DA NOOBS" mentality.

I'm not an ATL falcons fan just cause I'm a dawgs fan...the guy had a reputation at Louisville and Atl...Arky knew that...and hired him anyway


Petrino took Arkansas places we were not able to go before. Can't blame us for wanting this. I don't think our season would be as dismal is it is now if he were still here.

Exactly. Real fans support the team just as much when they are losing as when they are winning.
