I just can't imagine why they might have bailed.

Dunno it was the off season and game had not been played.Perhaps football in the North East doesn't have the same following as Beisbol or Hoops or real housewives

The couple/few Rutgers fans we did have (on the old Scout site) were pretty combative/defensive if I remember right. One, I think, was reasonable.



It's OK that they didn't come here. I don't think they'd blend (like their school with all of ours), and they certainly wouldn't like this topic.
Yeah the only downside of this thread is that it's mean, but since they are gone and no one replaced them ...

It's just funny that we have to walk on eggshells while discussing certain teams due to the overwhelming sensitivity of their posters, while oftentimes those same sensitive posters are quick to deploy the exact same behavior that they were complaining about towards programs less fortunate than their own.

Although the ability to dish it but not take it is hardly unique to these here message boards of course.

If you want to call my school a silly name, have at it. I don't like it, but that doesn't mean it's off-limits. Nobody here ever said that.



I just think you like to pick.

What about Nebraka? 



What if Nebraka beats Purdue even? Is it then again Purdon't?

Yeah, I wasn't trying to single you out, you were just the one that posted before I jumped in. I've been admonished for using Purdon't before, even though I said it because I was rooting for them to pull off the upset, and I was disappointed that they blew it in the waning moments. 

There's also a certain Michigan poster who will throw an absolute sissy-fit if you take even the slightest jab at that program. Of course that account is the poster boy for a fella that can dish it but not take it. 

Overall though, I say we all get along pretty well for a group of people that come here specifically to discuss college football with a bunch of rival fan bases.

By all means say the same thing without pronouns or stand-ins. The truth is that everyone here is hypersensitive in the right moment and tries to be cool in all the others. Which is just like people. Not a group of them but all of them.

This is precisely why, when presented with the opportunity from @Drew4UTk , I decided to invest in this place and also bring ELA in on the action. I just wish we could get more people to come, so we could make ends meet. The Amazon thing is helping, for sure.

Here's what would have happened.
NOTHING.
You know why?  Nobody cares about Rutgers.
Baylor covered up for murder and numerous rapes BY THEIR ATHLETES and nothing happened to them.  
I assume all major college football teams are guilty of numerous rapes every year.  
All you need is the age group, the numbers, booze, and bad decisions and there you have it.
