A closet Texican?  I thought it was well known that I am a lifelong Horn fan, first and foremost, for all my born days, all the way back to the 50's when I was a little girl going to games with my papa, watching the Price/Royal teams enact bovine justice on all heathen comers.  


For clarity's sake, since tone and intent are so hard to come by on the Webz, it's not sensitivity.  Never that.  Something like that should always be read with an underpinning of derision and a hint of scorn.  Texans, and to a lesser extent, the core Big 12 posters are kind of the perfect outlet for my inner schmuck.  Unlike nearly everybody else on the planet, you guys can be demeaned, ridiculed, mocked, and jeered with virtual impunity, because you don't care.  You're that arrogant.  Who cares what some interloper says?  Certainly not you.  Nobody here cares what I think, and it frees me up to say whatever crosses my mind without filter.  If I act wrongfully, it's a victimless crime.  It's beautiful.  You're like Piers Anthony's minionettes, who thrive on abuse and recoil at overtures of friendship.  


You're really the perfect group of people for a jackass like me.

Speaking of Texas arrogance, and the Texas-USC thread, I'd like to hear about Erin's encounters with fans of the University of Spoiled Children.  Were they more, or less, arrogant than us Texicans.

I was sorely disappointed in our fanbase when I heard accounts of our interactions with Michigan fans at the Rose Bowl in 2005.  Seems they out-arroganced us, and by a pretty healthy margin.  I didn't think that was possible but, well, there you have it.

I'm wondering how the Spoiled Children did, arrogance-wise, on their home turf?

S'probably why Vince ran amok on them.  He probably felt he had to defend his fans' honor re: arrogance with rushing yards.

To be honest, there were more longhorn fans around me than trojan fans, so thankfully I only experienced Texas arrogance. 
Really, the crowd felt 50/50 and I was quite surprised that most of my entire section was wearing orange with only a handful of red among the masses.  I really think we may have outnumbered them but I don't know how that can really be gauged other than perception from where I sat. 

Anyhow, the friends I met up with prior to the game included a USC fan but he was super friendly, gave us free wine, and got us super stoned.  I have absolutely NO complaints with that!  :)
