Not the strongest argument for your "devil may care" attitude about football.

At the lowest point of Bama football, I had moments why I reflected on why we gave a crap.

Now, at the peak, I have those same thoughts. Especially when I see a kicker out there who looks 13.

It's all blown way out of proportion.

You realize that post count has no bearing on the context of this thread, don't you?

Boom? Is that a lot? I guess it's the late night chit chat with a crew that 'gets' it.

I don't give a shite. It's a retort when such well rounded, full of life chaps such as you have to resort to talking about Bama fans having nothing out side of football.


It's the ultimate Call of Duty argument. If you get your arse kicked, it must be because the other guy has no life.

Do you think that all of our posts are about CFB?

Ok. You start a thread on the emphasis one fan base puts upon college football, wins and losses etc, and then become the arbiter on how one judges it.

Amirite?

Should I start a post about how Ole Miss fans should spend less time on the internet?

20,000 doesn't equal 2 or 3 in this thread for you to reread.




It seems a nerve has been struck.

No, it can be judged my anyone based upon the many posts in this thread that have hilariously made the point I set out to make in the OP.

Go re-read the one where you said you make sweet, sweet love to billy goats.

Because I, like you, am too lazy to make actual contextual reference and instead prefer to make sweeping statements that are too vague to either validate or dispute.

There's only one way this OP would upset someone, and they're not going to get it.

"Living through the accomplishments of 18-22 year olds"

Does caring about college football make one a loser? What about people that play fantasy football? Somehow fantasy football gets a pass as not being pathetic yet I as an Alabama fan and grad am supposed to feel guilty for caring about college football (and college basketball). Makes perfect sense.

You can spin this however you want there's always that in every conversation.

So tell us why it is "better" being an Ole Miss fan than a Bama fan.

Does being an Ole Miss fan mean because you're team is a less accomplished program than Bama you can care less?

If you're a fan of a person, place, or thing and you care less about the thing that you're a "fan" of. Does that actually make you a "fan?"

So I go back to my question. Why is it better, "referring to your topic of the is thread" to be an Ole Miss fan than a Bama fan?

Why bring fantasy football into this? It's like comparing apple and oranges except the oranges are a small child.
