I may be in the minority, but I think smack talk is lame, as in middle school lame. I'll let my team on the field/court do the talking for me.
Trying to flip it around again, huh? You call it whining, I call it standing up for my team and myself. I could've turned tail, gotten quiet and hid, but that's not my nature. For what it's worth, YES, I'M COMPLETELY BUMMED WE'RE NOT BOOKING TICKETS TO PASADENA RIGHT NOW. That doesn't mean I need to put up with being kicked while I'm down. No doubts, both sides have been less than stellar. I was in the donor section this year and had to deal with dumbass Duck fans too (as hard as that may be to believe). Doesn't mean I'm going to repeat the crappy acting when the shoe's on the other foot. It's kind of ironic considering where MAS and I began with all the OSU/UO talk, but I agree with him. Let the teams do the talking. The only gloss I'll add is that I think it's pathetic that some on the board got more pleasure out of trash talking OSU than they did enjoying their own team's win.
Why are you posting to me if you aren't doing exactly what you are calling SodaPop out for posting to Beaver fans? Plus, you just threw in some smack about people enjoying smack more than the Blazers winning. Is that directed toward me?
Really? I thought his posts were right in the spirit of the game? How is posting factual photos a bad thing? Unless seeing them makes you feel bad, of course.
I'll let the rest of your recent posts speak for themselves. You were all about talking trash when it was convenient for you. Then your team goes and lays and absolute egg and gets crushed and all of the sudden you are taking the high road and trying to character-assassinate Duck fans who are rubbing it in a little? Give me a break. -Pop
Now go find me a quote where I'm actually being an ass -- that should be fun for you and I'll be interested to see what you find. Maybe I am in fact as much of a low rent idiot as you -- I'll be glad to admit it if I am. I suspect you'll only find trash talking before the fact and not so much rubbing it in after the game is over (win or lose.) Check both boards if you need more fodder. Character assassination? Shoot, Pop, you did that yourself. All your talk about being tough and you're the one that hid last year. Team loses, you go off radar. Team wins, you squak. Nice and safe approach, but pure wussy stuff.
That may or may not be true, I'm not sure, but it sure doesn't give Beaver fans the high road for berating SodaPop, does it?
Somebody's bitter. Maybe you should have thought twice about purchasing those non-refundable tickets to Pasadena. Your "low rent idiot" comment speaks volumes about you. Backed into a corner and you start spewing insults from the hip. To use your language, "Stay classy, mobes." Typical Beav. 45 years of frustration is coming to a head now, isn't it? -Pop
Not really. Frustration was 1971 to 1998. The last couple years have been a blast. As far as this season went, the Civil War was painful, but we DID lose our front seven on defense and still ended up in 2nd place in the Pac 10. All things considered, not a bad year. Squawk, squawk, squawk, Pop. I got less a whole lot classy after dealing with your crap. I don't like it, but I also don't get pushed around by squirrely dudes who snipe when times are good and hide when times are bad.
So bad conduct of others means you're free to do whatever you want? Right. Like I've said before, we could easily turn this thread into a list of lame conduct of fans of both teams.
These gloating duck fans are probably the same fans that were boo-ing Masoli at home 3 weeks ago. Fairweather duck fans who boo their own players.
I hate to say it (because we'll be seeing him for awhile), but I thought Masoli looked great -- very few posts about that. His o-line helped to make him look good too.
Yeah Masoli has the makings of something special. I think he can be as good as, if not better than Dixon in the next two years. He's the same type of player but also has a lot of toughness and seems to be much less injury prone than Dixon. Can't wait to see how he does in a Bowl game. Now if only his defensive secondary would give him a little help. Also, all this smack talk about Soda not showing up for last year's CW is fine and all, but I don't understand one thing: How is that argument valid when his join date is a few months ago? In fact, almost all of you joined a few months ago...now I'm a newbie here too, so did you all migrate here from a different forum or is there a bug in the forums or....?
