People who root for a P5 team that neither you nor your children attended, how/why did you pick ?

That's exactly why I started to hate them. There would be a slate of good games on any particular Saturday, but instead of those you'd get Notre Dame Vs. Army or some other academy /cream puff.

lmao, okay. FWIW, ND has played Army 5 times in 30 years. stfu.

I'm just gonna assume that since you are a Frightened Irish fan you couldn't fully comprehend the rest of that statement that said "or some other academy/cream puff."

Lighten up domer.

I did, you specifically referenced Army though, so you come off looking like a dumbass. Every team played an easy game or 2, why does ND have to different?

I was 8 years old and had just started playing Jr. All-American Football. My Uncle worked for a newspaper and hooked my Dad up with 2 tickets to a USC game.

I don't even remember who they played. I just remember hearing the band start up, saw Traveler and Tommy Trojan go out to midfield and stick the sword into the ground, saw the team run out of the tunnel and I was hooked before the game even started.

It wasn't every team that was force fed to the masses every week, regardless of opponent.

I didn't. I don't. And I still hate them.
My favorite two teams are Nebraska and whoever is playing Notre Dame.

Cool...I'm guessing you're about 15?

... waiting for @droider to answer this thread.


For every team he has ever claimed to root for.


Need something solid to read next time I'm taking a long shit.

I go for Alabama because they're one of the best teams in college football. I like Michigan as well.

Not the point of the post.

You can't strip away the context of the overall post in order refocus on a subject that the poster didn't actually state or even insinuate. Unless you want us all to think your reading comprehension is akin to a grade schooler. If so, well done.

It wasn't every team that was force fed to the masses every week, regardless of opponent.
This was the point of the post.

There's a pretty easy solution...don't watch.
He's referring to a time when viewing options were very limited. You could watch Notre Dame and maybe one other game. What are you 15?

I didn't. I don't. And I still hate them.

I actually like Notre Dame.

Hey, that's my line.

Good guess. Close. 55.
Learn maths. That isn't close. :D

I was actually hoping you were, because you're acting like it. Yikes.
The irony here.
