    The Good Dr. does not seem very appreciative of Rutgers Athletics Spending

    Either helped burn the ROTC building, or at least brought a guitar along to watch and strum.

    Michigan football pausing for Covid

    James Franklin is a slimy guy. I question the values of anyone who would want to work for, play for, cheer for, hire, or allow their son to be mentored by him. "I've been saying it for a long time, I will not hire an assistant coach until I've seen his wife. If she looks the part, and she's a...

    From the Purdue forum

    My handle comes from a rant by Mr.Television that I found funny back in the old days. I think he doesn't like me. No SizzlePoints awarded, mikershoin. I feel like you are not working up to your full potential.

    Michigan football pausing for Covid

    To read the PSU Rivals site, a fair number of posters are confident the Nits will run the table and go to a bowl game, despite the fact that every team remaining on their schedule has a better record than they. This is unsurprising though, as history has shown that self-awareness in Happy...

    From the Purdue forum

    This response does not add anything constructive to the discussion, and tacitly endorses the kind of disrespectful sentiments I hope we don't see here. However, it is witty and succinct. Also, the use of a high-quality gif is commendable. I award you 5 SizzlePoints (5 SP) for your effort. You...

    From the Purdue forum

    You can see for yourself that my handle is from Sept 2003. Not sure what happened to my post history. Maybe lost it during one of the board migrations. That's entirely irrelevant to everything, but I award you 10 SizzlePoints (10 SP) for your piping hot retort, nonetheless!

    From the Purdue forum

    Let's be clear on what we're talking about. So-called fans of Purdue Football are denigrating the student athletes who play football for that college, by demeaning them and challenging their masculinity for not playing football well enough to amuse the grown adult fans. That's a bitter...

    Why why WHY

    This is one of the more delusional and unreasonable posts I've read in a while. In less than one year, this staff has taken a dumpster full of trash, burning out of control, and Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Banged it into a Sherman tank, and you're whining because it's not an M1 Abrams yet. Gleeson's...

    **** Penn State

    I'm very glad you've come to post on this board, because I'm genuinely curious and would like to know: why do you root for PSU football? Personally, I don't understand how it's possible to push down and ignore the stomach-churning, mortifying shame and outrage that any decent person would feel...

    These uniforms...

    0% chance - what do you base this on? Do you have some insider knowledge? Wishful thinking? Or are you just trolling me? There is no wrong answer, just degrees of hilarity. I'm looking forward to your reply. I had forgotten how much fun this board can be. 0% chance! Good stuff.

    These uniforms...

    Correct kit?!? Soccer fan? Soccer fan. The Halloween costume trend is tired. We need to look like a B1G football team, and our Schiano-era uniforms were classics that fit the bill. When the "pro combat" contract runs out after next year, I expect we will go back to these. Can't happen soon...
