I understand why you dont like OSU, I am not trying to make you like OSU. That is not my point in my posts. The point of my posts is that you hate them because you know a few people who are bad, a little too crazy and there are a few who refuse to acknowledge the accomplishments of the MAC at all.FliccGirl wrote:tekekini wrote:bottom line is that you all hate because of jealousy, you want BG to be where OSU is so bad that you can not handle it. It has turned every sigle one of you into a cry baby. Northern Ohio is pretty heavily democratic, go figure. Democrats are sterotypical class A ball babying sobbers who are not willing to accept the things in their lives the way that they are but cry because they want everything changed. The world does not work like that, and you still have not figured that out. Maybe that just shows your maturity levels?
Something else that shows your maturity levels is the fact that you get so angry over sports. It is, afterall, just a game.
You dont just cheer to root for a team because you love them, they are in the same divisions as Big ten ACC SEC etc.. they are in the same division where the BCS awards a national champion. They players play to win that title, the fans root for them to do so.
also shows maturity level when you try to personally attack me and you know nothing abut me...i havent personally attacked anyone.
I guess OSU fans have more class t
I'm sorry you won't try to understand the real reasons many posters here don't feel affection for Ohio State. But I assure you, for most of us it has nothing to do with jealousy. Didn't you read Peregrinner's post about being happy in the MAC? That sums it up for me, and I suspect quite a few others.
.
my point is that people from other school scan take a joke. Why does everyone here at the BG boards take everything so personally? lighten up. I dont take a damn thing any of you say seriously. I laught at you.I find humor in how easily it is to anger you over something so friggin stupid as football. it is very very sadFliccGirl wrote:"Duh, of course people talk trash about other schools.

....says the man expressing outrage that a BG fansite is talking trash about Ohio State.....
This pissing match as gone on for days now and I highly doubt there is anything in the world more pointless than what this has gotten too (on both sides). But what I am curious about is why if you don't take anything seriously do you bother to keep posting and replying to everyone. Not only that you are actually arguing something so you must have some vested interest in it. Both sides are making posts really just to piss the other person off. I think you are taking it seriously if you care to respond. Just let it die, Everyone. Also please refrain from always generalizing everyone on the site. The vast majority aren't complaining, don't think the sky is falling on BG athletics, can take a joke, and honestly don't think about OSU because it doesn't affect our lives.tekekini wrote: my point is that people from other school scan take a joke.

like I said, a select few. I was at the Texas game and I never saw a single person from texas get harrassed. I never saw an OSU fan say anything to a Texas fan. everyone has different experiences. apparently you did not learn how to read and comprehend at BGTricky_Falcon wrote:You have never heard an osu fan use the F word?

Holbrook Apologizes to Texas Fan
According to Ohio State University president Karen Holbrook, some Buckeye fans left a bad taste in the mouths of visiting Longhorn faithful last Saturday.
So much so that Holbrook decided to apologize publicly.
The post-game reaction to the Texas loss, according to police, was fairly tame. Someone torched several dumpsters near campus, but not much else went wrong otherwise.
But Ohio State administrators received complaints from Texas fans about harassment from the Buckeye faithful.
Descriptions of Buckeye fans included words like "classless and rude." One visiting Longhorn said a drunk OSU fan rushed him from behind, shouting obscenities.
Holbrook responded in an e-mail to one fan, that was published in Austin's newspaper.
She apologized, saying, "We have been working very hard to change a culture from one that is disrespectful to one that is welcoming. Obviously, there is still much work to do."
A university spokesperson said that there was a positive atmosphere at Ohio Stadium overall Saturday night. Liz Cook said it was just the actions of a few fans who got out of hand that ruined the mood for others.
As for the Wisconsin game, some of my friends were at that game and the only complaint they had was that the security would not let them stand during the game. Maybe the time did have an effect and things happen over time.tekekini wrote:Wisconsin was the worst I have ever seen, being an 8 PM game prolly didnt help because all the little juveniles had extra drinking time but they were bad. even inside the stadium the band had a little song they played with brief pauses where the whol student section in unison would yell "F*&k ohio state. I can not believe their president , their athletic director and everyone else who has any say in the matter allows that to happen. Thats a great show of class. Wisconsin is by far the worst place I have ever been.
I know you guys didnt have the same experience, because it was 11 AM there, they didnt get their drinking time in and they prolly didnt really care. Most of them thought they were going to lose to a MAC school. Makes a difference.
West Virginia, their fans were even worse than UM fans, what do you expect
I am willing to bet that all of you who went to OSU game few years ago didnt have that bad of an experience beyond losing the game. I am sure people made comments and I am willing to bet 90 % of those were in good fun and humor. The other 10% were prolly to drunk to pay attention to the game. If someone made a comment and you took it personally then shame on you for not being able to take it and move on.

Funny, how you leave that part out
I'm not sure if the homosexuals that are alumni put it together, but Alumni still represent the University.tekekini wrote:I dont care what some gay alumni magazine says. it is run by the alumni association not the university itself. It is talking about a few over crazy fanatics compared to millions of fans for OSU. Since when are people not alowed to get excited for the games and talk trash. Atleast the student section at OSU doesnt yell in unison f**k UM as the BG section does about UT, I have been to several UM OSU games and have not once heard any F UM chants
dot talk to me about class. I have definately seen a lot of un classy thngs happen at BG.
