That said, sorry tek, but I’m out. Claim victory if you’d like, say I’m running away from the argument if you want, but I’m out. I’ve got far better things to do with my time… like cheer my favorite team to victory every week. I suggest you do a little more of the same, rather than taking your trash to the boards of other teams.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Now, on to my final reply:
Here's why I chose to lampoon your diatribe:
Simply not true. Just because you've gone all Fredo on us doesn't mean everyone else has, too. They do care; they care quite a bit. I know it's shocking to you to think that anyone, anywhere could care about anyone but tosu, but I'll be damned if you're not dead wrong (as usual). BG students do care about this team, many of them as much as or more than you care about tosu.85% of people who go to BG do not give a damn about BG athletics..some who go to the games go because its a live football game, but they do not care. You will never get this to change.
The fact that we're not in "positioonn" to win an NC means little if not nothing to me. Honestly, it does. It would be great to win one, sure, but I promise you I waste no time thinking about it. Why? Because I go to BG, I love BG, and I know the bureaucratic cards are stacked against us. That’s the system.
The next reason I chose to pick your post apart was your condescending ‘suddenly I'm an expert on human psychology’ tone. It's “human nature” to want to be a fan of a team like tosu? Quick! Someone call a psychiatrist to every non NC-contending University in the country! Something has gone horribly wrong!
I know that you, personally, might feel the need to bandwagon along with a team that will make you feel more important than the sad, strange little person you are, but some of us don't need to pretend we're part of something we're not in order to live with ourselves. You admitted it yourself, you have an unhealthy desire to be associated with ‘the best’. You know what that is, tek? That’s what people do when they know they’ll never be the best. I’m sorry to hear about your self-esteem problems. You're a dependent individual, and you really should have that checked out. In fact, someone call that psychiatrist back…
Oh, and to go back to the original point, to say that tosu fans cheer for them (the team) because it's more important for them (the team) is to say that they feel it's more important for the players (who make up said team). Not too much of a stretch for that to mean it’s because the players do too. Same point each time. Sorry pal.
Besides, my point still stands. You specifically said the fans do not play the game, then later in your post said “winning MAC titles would have never been good enough for me”. You refer to them as if they’re your accomplishments, as if you want to move up to bigger and better things… But you don’t play the games. But, I guess I’ve already covered that point, so I won’t go any further.
Oh, and nice try with the Michael Moore comment. I won’t even bother with that one, it’s too damn ridiculous to even care.
(Whew! That was like a freaking novel! Glad to be done with that mess. Back under the bridge for you, troll.)
