Giving a shite about college sports.

I think it's very optional. I paid my tuition and got a degree. I'm not donating family funds to take care of athletes. That is all.

Sorry you support a football program that is incapable of winning a championship

You are on a sports board.
I’m just sayin…

You don’t have to give money to care about it. It’s not a child.
Paying for cable or streaming services to watch the game is enough. They literally get TV deals.
Also, you on the SEC Rant and wondering why people care about sports… I mean

Being a fan of a championship team does not mean you are a winner in life.

Such a wise and thoughtful idea to post on a *checks notes* college sports board.

It's not possible for me to switch allegiance/loyalty based on performance results. Would you?

It's a sports comment

I have no idea if Mississippi State baseball will suck or not. The venue will be superior to Baton Rouge regardless.

I don't see what the big deal is. Select, well-to-do/in-the know fans have been bribing recruits for decades. Now everyone gets to participate and people lose their heads over it like its a big deal. You're just upset b/c the high school coaches loyal and funneling funds to state players all of these years are now irrelevant and big bro is cleaning house.

We upgraded the venue by adding to the intimidator

Reasonable point. I am getting old and grumpy.

I wasn't aware... and good on LSU.

To be clear, I am thankful that Ole Miss exists and gives assholes another school to attend other than Mississippi State.

There are varying degrees of "give a shite". Most people are content to go about their daily lives, watch their teams compete, hope for the best, and dare I say congratulate their opponents when they win. There are people who just enjoy watching sports and appreciate good teams and athletes whether they have a dog in the fight or not. This message board is a different animal. You have people here whose entire self worth is wrapped up in whichever team they root for, and whose existence revolves around trolling fans of other programs.

I mean I won't donate to NIL so I'm with you on that. I'll buy season tickets though because I enjoy the games with family and friends.

I agree and it's certainly easier to rationalize that perspective given the current college sports environment.
Posted on 2/20/24 at 6:13 pm to NC_GROG
I’ll not donate to nil either, but we buy plenty of Razorback shirts, hats and other items with the logo and I’d imagine they get a cut from that. Plus going to the occasional games which they have just about priced me out of.
I’ve got my own bills to pay.

This is not where I thought the thread was headed. I thought you were going to rant about the facade that is college sports in its present state. I could get behind that. But this is just… a State fan being a State fan.
My buddy is a State fan. He says the same shite.
