OM fans are telling him to keep swinging. Hell, I say keep swinging. It's hilarious

He's almost at cartoon character status as we speak. Ole Yancy not having a

good run as of late.

Since Sankey is on the COI, is he going to recuse himself from the proceedings re: Ole Miss?

Edit to add: I've not paid attention to this part, so I don't know. If it's old news, please inform this unenlightened soul. Thankee.

Im interested in this question too. For reference, he was asked by an attorney to recuse himself from the UNC case, but isn't going to (he will participate in the hearing).

Why should Sankey recuse himself from the UNC case? As far as the Mississippi case goes, he may as well not even be on the committee.

Dubmasses don't even realize the reason he has to recuse himself when their case is involved is to keep him from exerting influence to HELP his conference school, not the other way around. Do they really think the SEC commissioner is out there actively trying to get an SEC school on probation???

It wasn't me who asked him to recuse himself, it was a lawyer representing UNC. They're probably suffering from "someone from the SEC trying to take us down" syndrome.

I understand that. I just can't imagine what possible reason he could have for asking that.

It blows my mind that any Black Bear fan would pay him any attention. He has been wrong repeatedly and they still bend over and take it from him.

For 10 damn years a number of our self-proclaimed 'objective' fans have been preaching that there are no real differences between the fanbase. They'd say we both had homers and both had reasonable folks. Both sets of writers were sunshine pumpers (Gene/Yancy) while some of them were more 'realistic' (PJ/McReady). I think it's been illustrated during all this crap that big differences in attitudes, and really worldviews, exist between those two groups of people who come from the same area of the country. We might all have MS ties but we aren't the same by a big margin. Why do I say worldview, you ask? Because it's also pretty obvious that we all have an unhealthy obsession with our schools' sports teams, some much more than others, but Ole Miss much more than MSU. Ole Miss is a reason many of their fans wake up in the morning. It's an idol to them like anything else.

Hopefully we can put that issue to bed. I have yet to see one MSU fan say the douchey **** on this board that Rebelbruiser has throughout the years, although some of our dumber brethren still proclaim him and his other comparable ilk as "reasonable", to this day. I often wonder how in-your-face the patronizing has to get before you wake the hell up, sort of the same way people across the globe had to get driven to madness before they saw the truth about liberal stupidity.

If you really believe that ANY Ole Miss fan has EVER truly pulled for us in any sport (whether it's CWS 14 or women's hoops this year), I got some beachfront property in Noxapater I'd like you look at. Real nice, cable TV and everything. They want us to burn, and always have. If not, they are simply an Ole Miss fan in name only, and have no care regarding the sports.

Look no further than Dick Cross and Matt Wyatt. They sum up the whole thing. If you think they are different sides of the same coin, see previous paragraph.

Much like every other school in the SEC people that actually graduated from their prospective universities tend to be way more middle of the road than the average sidewalk fringe. I have two great friends at work who are both PharmD's and both graduated from OM. They are awesome people people and, although being huge OM fans, are well respected for things that don't involve sports. And they both pull for State every game that doesn't involve them playing OM. The oldest guy's son even graduated from State, tried out for a walk-on TE position on our team and is best friends with Fletcher Cox. When the Yazoo City coach died last year or two at school and Fletcher came back to Mississippi to attend the funeral it was this guy and his son who picked him up at Hawkins Field and drove him to Yazoo City. The guy couldn't talk enough about it. It honestly was one of the greatest things he has ever been able to do. I know several MSU fans who never attended State and their entire view of the university is focused on athletics and whether or Not we are dominating OM. OM is the same way. As a matter of fact I know way more OM fans who never attended OM but their racist asses have been brought up to believe by other people who never attended OM that the Rebels are the last hold-out of the great ole South and all that it symbolizes. I work with tons of women who went to school at UAB, State, DSU, USM. Never had any connection to OM. Then the second they marry their OM fan husband, who never attended OM, their entire world turns into puking red and blue 24/7. If many OM fans actually attended a class at OM they would be disgusted by how liberal the university has become.

My point was the opposite. The people that did graduate from Ole Miss are usually the most pompous. Same with Auburn. For whatever reason, I can handle sidewalk homers much better, maybe because they don't hide behind some fake veil of passive patronization.

I've met very few MSU sidewalk homers. What in the world is in it for them?
