Re: Teams you thoroughly despise

I used to root for both teams when I was a youngster. Then, I got totally tired of being belittled for attending Marshall and rooting for the Herd by so many WVU fans. Having lived in Virginia for nearly 10 years, it is no different between the fans of Virginia and Virginia Tech. Here in North Carolina, it's just on a larger scale with more teams to not like. North Carolina and Duke are the biggest right now.

It's got nothing to do with me. That observation was made by a person who joined RZ less than a month ago. Try again...

Quit holding back. Tell us how you really feel.

When I was a pretty young kid we lived near Louisville and I like UK and the Cards. Then they started playing each other and I couldn't do that anymore. I thank my parents often for not buying me any UofL gear when I was that age. At least there is no photographic evidence of me as a Cards fan.

Re: Teams you thoroughly despise

NFL: Steelers (team and fans) - back from when Keith Gary tried to rip off Ken Anderson's head.
MLB: Cubs fans, Yankees (team and fans), Red Sox (team and fans) - just tired of these teams being stuffed down my throat.
NCAA Bowl System: Give me a playoff already.

This post will serve as all the evidence we need.

Thats funny because that is exactly what happened to me! Reverse the last statement of course. I don't know man I get tired of all the BS between the 2 sets of fans, thats why I say get the divorce and each team go there merry ways, and everyone can be happy. Both sets of fans are really hating the forced series right now.

The only way I could see this game being any fun or relevant is if they would meet in a bowl game, which may actually happen if my beloved Mounties don't get rid of Bill Good Golly Gee Don Nehlen's Reincarnation Stewart.
