Bucknell shirts flying off shelves of Bucknell Bookstore

I already agreed they were funny for the same reason



I've actually mentioned this quite a bit on this board... IMO, it sucks to be reduced to rooting against other teams. (I'm not talking about a regular season game... of course people have an interest in who wins or loses those games..... I'm talking about when your team isn't in the playoffs and you're reduced to rooting against other teams). Sure, I do it, because it makes watching games between two team I don't root for a better experience... because I can get into it. That said, it still sucks, because I'd rather see my team playing than watching someone else's team.

Again, there's no anger. There's no tears. We've already lost to Bucknell. You're not going to make it worse.

By all means though, keep believing that you wasting your money on a tshirt is causing Kansas fans pain. It makes it funnier for us.

For something that does not bother you, you sure are squawking a lot about it.

Now as far as being reduced to rooting against a rival, you are comparing apples and oranges.

Even when teams I support have winning seasons I still enjoy seeing a hated rival lose and lose in a way that is extremely humiliating (such as being beaten by a team from a conference which has never won a NCAA Tournament game, and has only five scholarship players who do not have scholarships for athletics but for academics, which means not only did they beat you at basketball they could whip KU’s butt’s in the classroom as well).

One does not negate the other.

No kidding.

Squawking like a hawk getting trampled by a Bison

I ramble all the time about stuff I couldn't care less about, thankyouverymuch.

Some days are slower than others, so I need something to do until work is over

Good job! I think the problem with the tshirt is that that it's all about Bucknell's accomplishment.... it's not smack against Kansas at all. It would be much more effective if you could put that on a tshirt.

Of course when you are the butt of a joke you don't find it as funny as the rest of us do. And this is why the joke is so amusing, because of the tantrums it illicits

I was just randomly thinking about this part, and I can think of some hilarious smack against my teams..... I thought Taco's Cubs logo that spelled Chiefs was really funny... as well as the "Coaching for idiots" book being held by DV.
