I don't see the big deal.because it makes you out to be nothing but some kind of bandwaggon type of fan...a operson cheers for a school in basketball, but since their football team isn't any good they cecide to cheer for some other school that has a better football team. Its very lame.

thepostman wrote:consider it done.....so you are pretty much saying that we can like one school only!!!!
by the way SJ...told you there were plenty of UNC fans out there that just like the basketball team...
you know what annoys me more....Liberty fans on a Liberty messageboard that have other school logos....I know its been said before, but not in a while, so I thought i throw it out there....

However, I will say that I do root for VT in Football AND Basketball, even though our men's basketball team sucks 9 out of 10 years.
And as for the BCS, I have no problems with LSU being in the title game...Ohio State, though, is WAY OVERRATED!!!!!!!!

SuperJon wrote:Atrain, if you think that's the same principle, you're an idiot.this is exactly how i see it...pro teams and college teams are two totally different things...unless you cheer for like the Patriots, Yankees, and Lakers...then I know you are an idiot and jump on every bandwagon there is (though there seems to be less and less Laker fans...hmmm wonder why that is)
How would you feel if I came on here and said I like Liberty football, Winthrop basketball, and Coastal baseball? You'd call me a bandwagon fan. It's the same thing.
And Posty, I agree about the avatars, unless it's the summer.
thepostman wrote:Not always true, I like the Cowboys, Yankees, and Miami Heat. If you didn't know better you'd say I'm a bandwagoner, but I'm not. I like the Heat because I used to not have an NBA team, then I lived in South Florida, and started going to some Heat games. Thus becoming a Heat fan, and I still am even though they are pretty bad this year. My grandad and my dad both liked the Cowboys and Yankees, so I grew up following them as well, even through the rough years.SuperJon wrote:Atrain, if you think that's the same principle, you're an idiot.this is exactly how i see it...pro teams and college teams are two totally different things...unless you cheer for like the Patriots, Yankees, and Lakers...then I know you are an idiot and jump on every bandwagon there is (though there seems to be less and less Laker fans...hmmm wonder why that is)
