[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 3873666, member: 10690"] That’s because the vast majority of their fans are front running MF’ers. Present company seems to be excluded. Most of these guys here seem stable enough. Most of them have 1 tie to the school; the football team. They don’t love the university. They love the football team because they win, most of the time. When they lose, the walmart hats get burned. I actually saw that last night on a video. Crying, by grown men, and burning fan gear. When sports is your one and only tie to a school, that’s what happens. It is what it is. I’m not busting anyone’s chops here. It’s just a fact. I don’t personally know anyone that attended the school in Norman that is a jerk about the football program. Not one. I don’t know that many of them though. Maybe a couple three. The vast majority of uo fans I’ve ever met have never stepped foot on campus, and those that have went for a sporting event. The reason for that is a history of winning National Championships. It’s as simple as that. I’m an oSu fan. Have been all my life. My big brother & sister went to school there, lived on campus, and got degrees. I lived with my sister and her husband for a time in married student housing after my dad died. I was 9. I got my degree there. I have lifelong friends from the places I lived and people I hung out with. A large amount of my friends came from my years in college. I’m an oSu sports fan because of that. It sure as **** ain’t because our football team was a national powerhouse. I truly don’t know a single oSu sports fan that didn’t go to school there. I can tell you this, 0-10-1 don’t get you a lot of front running fans. It is what it is. With the recent success, we will probably pick up some bandwagon fans, and they’re welcome aboard. The more the merrier. I’m not saying one is better than the other as far as fans, I’m saying the fan bases are different, and they always will be. You might say we don’t get that upset about losing cause we’ve got a **** ton of experience at it. Still hurts, but I don’t know anyone that’s burned a hat. [/QUOTE]
