Sorry. I don't keep a collection of everything you say.

As if the previous posts didn't suggest as much.
Quote:So you as a Gator fan pull for Georgia and Tennessee (lol) when they're in bowl games?
This is funny because my co-worker is a die hard Gator Fan, but refuses to cheer on any other team in SEC when playing in Bowl games.
I think the definition of being a true fan is changing in today's society.

Well, when your own team can't even make a bowl game there's nothing better then being able to cheer on your rivals.

I used to work with an Alabama fan when I lived in Jacksonville. Three years ago, I asked who he was rooting for between Oregon and Auburn when they were playing for the national title. He said Auburn because he wants "to keep it in the SEC." I was shocked, and told him no true Alabama fan would ever root for Auburn.
Booker T Washington HS continues to roll and are currently ranked #1 in the nation. I stand by my comment earlier that they still belong ahead of the Gators.

I did the same when my team was hoisting the crystal trophy up.

Says you.
I find it hilarious that people can make the rules of Fandom.
As has been stated ad nauseam on here, but simply refused to see it, there is a reason. Some believe that the SEC gets preferential treatment as a conference and that is why teams from the conference have gotten so many shots/benefit of the doubts when it comes to teams getting to the National Title game.
I simply believe, and it has proved out over and over in the bowl games based on records against opposing conferences that iron sharpens iron. If teams in my conference are good, very good then it makes my team have to live up to that level of play. It's not a bad thing then to want a team in your conference to be successful in a bowl game. It helps the conference, whether it be by perception, or simply that the teams/conference is better.
I remember after Clemson beat Georgia, the whole stadium went into an ACC chant. I have seen it elsewhere too, but that's neither here or there.

They are the real deal. Loaded with athletes. No one in 4A can touch them.

It's all about the media. Yes, the SEC is a great conference, and the best conference in the country. You know that. I know that. Anyone with half a brain knows that. The media and ESPN have created this illusion that the SEC is so infallible, which is why they get the preferential treatment. There is no way LSU should have had to play Alabama again two years ago, but ESPN was pushing so hard for a rematch, and they got what they wanted. It's the only conference in the country that gets rewarded for losing. That's jus the way I see it.
As for the ACC chant...that is more or less ACC fans mocking the SEC dorks.

You guys may become like kentucky fans the way things are going. Oh and I found this for you. You should be able to get it in before the bowl games start.

Clemson wasn't mocking at all.
Let's assume what you said is true. All the more reason to root for teams in your conference to win in bowl season.

I wouldn't wear a shirt like that.
You are the biggest to spout off about arrogance and fans being full of themselves. You should practice what you preach regarding it. You've been pretty boastful, arrogant and down right abhorrent the last couple pages. Extremely gaudy.
But to be expected. I called it for years when the cycles turn. The ones he denounce it so mightily are generally the same who will be doing it. But I say enjoy it.

When have I been full of myself? What have I boasted about? Do you see me posting article after article of negative gator stuff as you did for years about the Noles? No.
I thought you would want to show your SEC pride. Nothing better then getting a shirt showing your support for all things SEC. Didn't expect it to get you all wound up. Let me know if you need link on where you can order one.

I have posted little to no articles regarding FSU. Take a look at the comments. It's FSU being on top, and kicking Florida while down. I get it, trust me. But for someone to constantly talk about arrogant fans then keep making the comments over and over is over the top and arrogant. Look up the definition of it, the posts are pure arrogance.
I have stated over and over how far my SEC "Pride" goes, yet you keep on with comments and remarks that go completely against what I have said. It's either willful ignorance, or like I said, arrogance.

Lol, what? Just because you had a different name back then doesn't rewrite history. You haven't recently, but that's because your team has been terrible.
Feel free to post which comments you are referring to as arrogant. I don't think you know what that word actually means.
Well what kind of SEC shirt would you wear? Would you prefer the shirt to be black? Or maybe a multitude of all the teams colors in the SEC, like a rainbow?

You're intelligent enough to pick. It's not very hard.
And yes, yes I do.

What does you wearing an SEC shirt and supporting your conference have to do with self importance or superiority? Self worth? Difference between copy and pasting and actually understanding what those words mean.
