Houston, you said exactly what I've been trying to put into words. There are plenty of OSU fans that are wonderful people and know BG and might occasionally put them down, but that's only in the spirit of competition with the fact that they know I attend BG. All in all, most fans of any school, even most Big 10 schools, are wonderful people and they show the respect to other schools, even MAC schools, because of the simple fact that they want to represent their own school in a good way. Tek doesn't do that. I know I'm guilty of being lured into his traps, and I apologize to all of you for that as well.HoustonFalcon wrote:I voted yes. I voted yes because I have seen a different type of OSU fan since being down here. Tek, in my situation, doesn't represent most OSU fans that I know. Most of the OSU fans have respect for BG, and haven't said one bad thing about them. They are very passionate about OSU, and I admire that. There is a big alumni following down here in Houston, and they all get together and watch each game at the sports bar, set up speakers and play the fight song, alma mater, and hang on sloopy quite often before and during the game. I have actually grown to like OSU, only because of the fans I have had the fortune to meet down here. The first time I met them was the last BG/OSU game, and they were nice from the very beginning.
Tek on the other hand, I have a different view of. I don't give him the pleasure of posting a reply to anything that he says, I let the rest of you do that. But he really has become obnoxious. To call BG smelly, gay, and whatever else he used in trying to justify cutting off all ties to the place that he chose to get a degree, really makes me steam. Everyone else on here loves BG, and I know that I can't wait until the next time I get to come back to the place that I will always call home. That's fine if he doesn't feel the same way, it's his opinion, but to come on here and say those things is just ignorant. Defending OSU is one thing. I agree that there are sometimes over the top things that are posted, and I don't really care for those comments either. But to say that he is going to start a fire with his degree from BG, that's crossing a line. I have become a semi OSU supporter because of the passionate fans that I have met while down here, but they are nothing like Tek. He takes it way over the line, and it's time for him to go. I know he does things to get rises out of people, and he's good at it. A lot of you are going to say that I'm wrong, and that's fine. I just prefer to have people on here who might not like some of the things that are going on in BG, but they disagree with those things because they love BG, not disown it.
That is all from me.
