You know, even when I agree with their main stated goals they tend to grind me as well... I think it's the whole 'weed is of the earth and safe to drive with... in fact it's good for you" garbage that wroks me...



You wound me...

lol... I grew up in the 1980's and being a Radier/Trojan/Laker fan was not an option...

so I picked mostly random teams... and have been a fan of the ever since.
I have always wondered about your teams. Pretty eclectic.
Danny Manning fan?
Jim Abbott/Reggie Jackson?
Alan Shearer?
Lemieux/Jagr?
Browns... no idea :)

Sub in Fastino Asprilla for Shearer. Everyone was a NUFC fan that season before the wheels came off and Keegan went cray cray on TV

Forgot about Asprilla. Keegan used to be awesome. How times change.

Pretty much all yes... and the last would be Kosar, Dixon and Mack... the 80's Browns were great... until they got to the AFC title game every year.

Honestly MOST of them I picked before I was old enough to know better, Pens and Jay hawks had as much to do with a little kid liking the mascot as anything... then I came across Mario and Manning later... The Angels are the only "family' team we have... and I loved the Browns in the 1980's... ND came from Cath. V Convicts II with the 3rd and forever game... I've been a fan ever since...

again, bottom line is, I picked my teams pretty young, grew up in a family where you could NOT root for many of the local teams (Raiders, Trojans, Lakers) but could root for whoever otherwise... and once my teams were my teams it just was. I think being a So Cal sports fan with only one team (Angels) actually starting out here, made it easy to look nationally as well.


The only team that has any recent story behind it is Newcastle… I am of course a Celtic fan but when the SPL hit hard times about five or so years back it became harder and harder to view any of their games…

Begrudgingly I decided I had to take up an English team: I then came up with a formula of sorts… the team couldn’t be from the South, had to be as close to Scotland as possible, had to have a good relationship with Celtic, had to have a rich history (not necessarily a winning one, but rich), and couldn’t be the hot team of the day (like a Man U)…

All that together really brought only two teams out at all… NCU and Liverpool… I went with NCU.

When people quote a really long message board post and then comment with a single line like, "Thanks", "Good to hear," or "I like the sound of that."

Lol I dont hate it but I do ask myself why they do it.

That's true, I don't hate it but it makes me want to shake them and ask "why do you do that?"

reminds me of a story i heard on one of my summer vacations.

The fact that this is an "ND football" board and isn't a "ND sports" board
IU basketball and ND football fans
Michigan
Keenan hall

I grew up in north central Indiana so ND football and IU ball was always on TV, and as a kid that's what I watched, (side note, my dad was an IU grad). I follow most ND sports (don't really follow woman's attempt at sports, call me sexiest if you want) but IU ball has a soft spot in heart.

Things I hate
Liberals who hate America and blame the US for ALL of worlds problems and give the US zero credit for the good we do.
Michigan
U$C
PO$U fans
People who are only concerned with pop culture and are oblivious to world current events, it doesn't mean you have to know everything but at least have a freaking clue.
People who pretend they know it all, when they don't know sh!t
The French
Intellectual elites
Purdue
Woman drivers
Old drivers
Slow drivers
Clueless drivers
Michigan...again

I think that's it for now

-Women who wear extremely low cut tops and bombshell pushup bras then give you the stinkeye because you cast an approving glance at the boob festival on display

-People who think their purse/briefcase/laptop bag counts as a person and should take up a chair at a bar or coffee shop

-People who drink light beer and make fun of the straight whiskey I'm drinking

-Food snob customers who think they know more than the culinary-educated chef who has been cooking professionally for 2 decades

-People who demand a custom gluten free menu even though they don't have celiacs disease

-Oh, and USC and Michigan

LOL!! Good one! Along the same lines...the people at the airport that put their luggage in an empty seat in a full terminal with others standing around.

I went up to a lady last time and asked her if her "bag was tired" and she gave me a funny look. I asked her to then remove her bag so my mother in law could sit down. Sheesh. Some people.

She probably neg-repped you, too.
