I live in the heart of Razorback Country, and I haven't been to a game in eight years. Why would you have to go to Tuscaloosa? They've got TVs in the District now, don't they?

I don't think being an SEC fan is a good idea

iatee, Thursday, 9 September 2010 04:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Unless these people are like REALLY hardcore from the swamps and forests of the south, they'll more than likely be okay with you just saying you appreciate the SEC for what it is: the strongest conference in college football. You don't have to pick a favorite team (and I tell you this as an Alabama fan since birth).

Johnny Fever, Thursday, 9 September 2010 04:53 (thirteen years ago) link

Oh, and one other thing: if these ARE indeed Alabama fans you're working with, just tell them you hate the Vols. That will endear you with them much more than picking a team to like.

we have some alabama, auburn, south carolina, vanderbilt, florida.. oh i have a friend who went to arkansas too. no tennessee as far as i know!

they're not actually inviting me to tuscaloosa, but it's like if i had the money and vacation time, would i spend it traveling to a college football game? hells no! i don't understand this.

I've never been a tailgater type, but I understand the appeal of the idea. I even understand the compulsion to travel to participate in such a thing. It is SO MUCH more intense than anything the NFL has to offer. Even cities who worship their teams like Green Bay and Oakland have nothing that compares to a Saturday morning at any SEC school before a football game.

Johnny Fever, Thursday, 9 September 2010 05:50 (thirteen years ago) link

It is crazy and most fans know this.

Green Bay's crazy with its season tickets, but it's a routine thing for people here to donate thousands to the Razorback Foundation just so they can get a seat between the 40s instead of the 30s.

I personally don't get it, but like Lent fasters and people who release their own 8-tracks, I respect it.

This Auburn/MSU game is a little bonkers.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 10 September 2010 00:16 (thirteen years ago) link

I hate that I'm about to have to change the channel.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 10 September 2010 00:17 (thirteen years ago) link

i think i'm gonna watch this one instead

vikings v saints just seems incredibly boring to me tbh

J0rdan S., Friday, 10 September 2010 00:21 (thirteen years ago) link

Johnny Fever, Friday, 10 September 2010 03:05 (thirteen years ago) link

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 00:48 (thirteen years ago) link

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 00:50 (thirteen years ago) link

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 00:50 (thirteen years ago) link

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 01:13 (thirteen years ago) link

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 01:14 (thirteen years ago) link

I'm really wanting Marshall to put WVU away tonight, and it could happen, but who knows.

Johnny Fever, Saturday, 11 September 2010 01:15 (thirteen years ago) link

bill stewart is just an awful coach

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 01:26 (thirteen years ago) link

johnny crunch, Saturday, 11 September 2010 01:43 (thirteen years ago) link

johnny crunch, Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:31 (thirteen years ago) link

Colorado looks worse than UC Davis did.

no gut busting joke can change history (polyphonic), Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:35 (thirteen years ago) link

minnesota looks like the slowest team i've ever seen in my entire life

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:36 (thirteen years ago) link

our defense appears to be in a better place than it was recently tho. at least, in better hands. xp

iatee, Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:39 (thirteen years ago) link

wow from the halftime statistics i don't see how u.m. is even in that ohio state game.

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:49 (thirteen years ago) link

are you watching the game or

J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:51 (thirteen years ago) link

or

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:51 (thirteen years ago) link

i have a federal district-court trial starting tuesday. no game-watching for me.

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:51 (thirteen years ago) link

Cool, are you on offense or defense?

Donovan Dagnabbit (WmC), Saturday, 11 September 2010 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

both, in a strange way. X sues Y (us) and Z. Y cross-claims against Z, and argues that a win against Z crosses-over, under federal law, into a win against Y. the court granted us summary-judgment against Z, and agreed that this crossed-over into a summary-judgment over X.

there shouldn't be a trial, from our point of view. but Z is refusing to relent. we find out on monday if there's a trial on tuesday.

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 22:15 (thirteen years ago) link

sorry! we argue that a win against Z crosses-over, under federal law, into a win against X.

good grief, what a mistake.

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 11 September 2010 22:15 (thirteen years ago) link
