I don't even think I can begin to describe how annoying it is during college football season, so maybe you'll get the pleasure of their presence afterall.

At least you weren't around when people were clamoring for Chase Daniel to be the Chiefs top draft choice.

Though I'm sure a few of those oxygen thieves will make their way into the draft discussions.

Uh, I can't imagine anybody, and I mean ANYBODY, was actually serious about the Chiefs taking Daniel with a first round pick. At one time before his psyche imploded I would have been in favor of drafting him with a second day pick, but that's it.

You at least live in California, so if you like USC it makes sense. Mecca doesn't get that pass. Most of us are either KU fans or MU fans, because we're either from Missouri or Kansas, or attended the schools, or both. Nobody cherrypicks MU or KU. But Mecca presents himself as Mr. USC (because his father's brother's cousin's former roommate once had a layover at LAX) and never misses an opportunity to remind us all how much better his cherrypicked program (and every other super school that has ten times the resources we do) are.

It gets a little old.

If you wanna give me a 6th round flier on a guy who broke a bunch of NCAA passing records in a spread offense great, I'm not using a 1st round pick on one.

Not to mention his coach was an NFL HC previously so I think he it had more NFL principles than given credit for.

If I wanted to cherry pick programs I wouldn't be a Chiefs fan....so that kinda blows that argument doesn't it?

I hated the Big 8 growing up because it was all option bullshit, sorry I chose a west coast team when i was 12 years old.

And by their "reasoning", I should be cheering for San Diego this Sunday because they're in our division.

How do you figure that? I would think most people support their own conference for the most part.

The NFL is an entirely different beast. In college, all teams withing a conference benefit from conference representation in BCS games.

Yes, I did root for SD but I despise Indy so it was warranted. Now, had it been the Broncos or Raiders then I would have, begrudgingly, rooted for Indy.

Because I'm critical of them? Don't they deserve it? Since they are making major changes I'll give them a bit more of the benefit of the doubt for a time.

I was heavily critical of SC for a long time, I'm way more critical of teams I like than ones I don't. Why would I care about teams I don't like?

You were free to choose because you didn't go to college, did you?

Mizzou's a fraud and I've never really cared for Iowa State!


Is that better? Seriously though, I'd just like the Big 12 North to not be a cripple fight every year in football, and I'd like to see Kansas and Texas play like 8 times a year in basketball.... outside of that, pure hatred. :)

Dude, I've read enough of Mecca's posts to know that even when he's defending his view, he doesn't go "douchebag", and he never starts out there either!
I understand that there are people here who've been friends for a while, and that they stick up for each other in their greatest moments of ****-tardery, but it's getting to the point where I see a particular avatar, and I want nothing more in life but to throttle the asshole behind it.

Your Buckeyes played much closer to Texas than ANYONE outside the state of Ohio thought they would.

Props for the effort.

Thanks Fella.

FWIW, you seem to be a Chiefs fan the same way DEnise is a Chiefs fan. I don't put much stock in it.

And I really don't give a shit when you decided to find your super program - it really makes you no different than a typical "lifelong" Yankee fan from some place like Minneapolis who's never been within 1,000 miles of New York. Nobody really cares what such a person thinks about the local team that can't dump $300 million on payroll.

Oh, thank god I just changed mine.

Mecca 01-05-2009 11:36 PM

SC was a super program in the early to mid 90s really?

I think it's funny that I get this fan card shit pulled all the time, what the **** do you want me to jump around and talk about how everyone is great on a 2-14 team for the love of christ.
