If you create a topic arguing that another team's message board and fan base are trash, it's probably a good idea to not put posts in it that make you out to look like raging a-holes.
Just saying.
yeeeeah, nice try, but there's nothing in this thread that's even remotely as offensive or kneejerk as the stuff going on on the Rutgers board.
Look, you presumably went to UNC so I assume you're not an idiot (unless you played for John Bunting or Butch Davis, in which case all bets are off). So I know you know that your comment doesn't address the claim I was making. Let me explain:
I was not arguing that ScarletNation doesn't have a-hole posters. Believe me, I know that ScarletNation has more than its share of a-hole posters.I wasn't arguing that every post in this thread is a terrible one -- for example, I liked Raising Heel's post pointing out some of the sillier things from the SN threadI was referring to posts like the ones that state:"They're from NJ though, so I'm not surprised their board is trash", from the guy who seems to have a Carolina-blue version of the Confederate Flag as his avatar"For those of you who have never driven through NJ, were you aware that you are not allowed to pump your own gas at the gas station? You have to use full service everywhere. That's so all these Rutgers graduates can have jobs.
It's the biggest joke of a school and program in the entire NE, and that's no small statement," from UNC71-00, who apparently is unaware that Rutgers has more alumni working at Goldman Sachs than any other state university, or that Rutgers is 12th on the list of degrees earned by Fortune-500 CEOs, or that Rutgers ranks far higher than UNC on Payscale.com's ranking of State Schools by mid-career salary (btw, UNC trails far behind NC State on that list), or..."Also, I spent a night at Rutgers' campus once. Easily one of the most depressing places I've ever been. Not exaggerating," again from your resident Confederacy Apologist"There are jokes upon jokes about New Jersey. I've discovered them all to be true. That place is a butthole. The people there are hemorrhoids," from gunslingerdick, living up to his screen name"That alone is sufficient to accept Rutgers as the Most Loathsome Fan Base in the Northeast," from woadblue, who's apparently never met a Syracuse or Penn State fan"Those losers talk about UNC as much as the wolpfies do. It is amazing, in a psychopathic sort of way. They are obsessed, clueless, but obsessed," from UNC Blue"Rutgers University has a nice campus, but it's grads make me throw up in my mouth on a daily basis," from Baby DeboSo, I mean, if you'd like to argue that these quotes don't make the people who wrote them sound like a-holes (the premise of my post), feel free to give it your best shot.
And, since you guys seem to be unceasingly condescending towards NC State fans, you should realize that one of the only posts in this thread that isn't prickish came from a Wolfpack fan.
