OK. I believe you. Had you heard of Western Kentucky?
Just being honest here but I'm guessing you're probably young and not likely a basketball fan.

Why you can't win next year. Why your attendance was a few thousand less than ours, etc, etc. Pretty much obsessed with all things Western. The sooner people quit talking new guys/old guys and start talking CUSA, the sooner they'll realize we need rivalries in the east division and that's gonna be Middle and Western for a while. No offense to other east schools, but not quite there yet.
The school you hate is your rival. That's pretty much the definition. Congrats WKU. You're it. WKYGelly is enough reason to hate you guys all by himself.
Louisville and Pitt would be nice wins, but beating your asses, God willing, will be a must for us next year, regardless of what people want to think.
PS that's 3 years of good records, WKUCreed. We can still hit 10 wins this year, including 2 P5 wins in that time.
Amongst the drivel, one good post. Thank you.

You're an arse to most, not SOME, of the people around here. You belittle and berate anyone who disagrees with your supposed hard statistical facts which then prevents any productive discussions from occurring. Your type of "feelings and competitiveness" is generally abrasive and destructive.
Yes, I'm typically calm and socially acceptable, however, I'll throw in a few fun jabs on occasion but I think most respect me for it and we occasionally have productive sports-related discussions.
The sad thing is that your use of statistics is of great value. Lots of interesting discussions could occur but it's your demeanor that destroys thread after thread.
There, how's that honesty for you?"
I agree with WKUAPOLLO--he makes some good points but in a way that irritates MOST posters!

Is this "twit" or whatever you call it in as bad a taste as I think it is? Am I misreading something, or did a "twitter" reference the plane crash?

I just didn't get the relationship to today and why someone would be posting it a week after the fact. Till now it never accrued to me it was smack talk about a plane crash
Your initial response indicated that you were as confused as I was as to the "subject." How could any one make such a comment?

An immature college student. There was similar one at a Bama fraternity before the LSU game referencing Katrina and "finishing what Katrina started."
No excuses, but hopefully the kid learns a lesson and doesn't do anything like that again. Employers these days check everything and it could cost him a lot more than notoriety online.

A lot different than your normal middle of the road post well you say it sarcasm but that only works when a person actually makes a pick ...every once in a while.
But hey at least I brought out something in you...twice this week. Hell I can't recall two post in the last 3 or 4 years where you actually said what you meant.
Great job...I can deal with that. But will it be another 3 or 4 years before you do it again?
You can't possibly know what another person thinks. You remind me of @ Lafayette folks. Maybe it is a SBC thing.

I would expect that from a WVU fan. Wow! Looks bad on WKU.

I honestly never even heard of you guys until last year and I still don't know or care to know anything about your program. I would assume WKU and EKU are big rivals though.
In all honesty, until WKU was mentioned as a potential candidate for CUSA, I thought Marshall was IAA. I'd never heard anything about them other than the movie. I didn't realize that Marshall had been FBS for only 13 years longer than WKU....well, unless you count the 20 years they were major football from 1962 to 1981 and only had 1 winning season during that 20 year span. To me, Marshall is like an EKU or Morehead State. They did have a nice little 7 year run during their MAC days and with the easiest schedule in America the last two years they've have been able to put together an impressive record.
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS???
LOL....as I later posted, I was exaggerating in reply to a Marshall fan who posted that they'd never head of WKU until last year.
Im not talking smack or anything. Straight up dead serious, I never heard of WKU until last year.
That's sad. Kinda hard to call yourself a "college football fan" if that's the case. No smack intended. WKU may not be a household name, but they played quality football for decades at the 1AA level. You just gotta be more aware of the world around you than that.
