That is pretty funny.

There were a few that were funny, even about ND ("it's ok to root against ND when they wear the ugly green jersyes").

But if they are trying to create a rulebook to keep people from being trendy college football fans, then hating ND just because it's ND shouldn't be on the list. If you're a USC, Michigan, Mich State fan, i can see a dislike for ND. But all the anti-ND bandwagoners out there that just hate because it's ND is stupid.

it has been explained to me that the ND hate comes from the NBC contract, the perceived favortism in bowl invites and the overall elite status ND enjoys as national school versus a regional one. Another name for ND hate is jealousy.

but I laughed at all the "rules" because I have heard most of them in real life, one way or another.

I've never understood why the contract should matter to average fans. If i were a conference head or athletic director, maybe I'd care.

I've also heard people sya they hate ND because they should play in a conference. What an absolutely dumb argument.
