[QUOTE="soonerwings, post: 1888397, member: 8035"] Wait a sec....calling someone names like "gooner" doesn't make someone look like a jackass but the use of statistics does? Furthermore, why can't a Sooner fan be proud of OU's performance in the rivalry and STILL be proud of OSU? OU will always be my favorite team and OSU will hold down the #2 spot. If you can't deal with that reality, too bad. I'll continue to cheer for OSU every game of the season except for when they face OU. Oh yes...I'm sure OSUs sainted players receive no preferential treatment and ALL of their wrongdoing is a complete thing of the past. To point out an ugly part of college sports and pretend that it only happens at schools you don't like is naive.

I'm sure all OSU fans hate OU fans. You must be right (sarcasm font needed). Seriously...did you just take one anecdote about an incompetent person (news flash...they're everywhere, OU doesn't have the market cornered) and submit a ridiculously small sample size (the majority of OU fans that you personally know) to prove a broad sweeping statement that "OU fans are hateful, mean, and disgusting"?
