Actually, eff it, I'm changing my answer.


I am a fan of this shitty atheletic program because I am not a big enough douche to root for a school I didn't go to.

I am not going to be the guy with the Nebraska hat during football season or the Duke/KU/North Carolina hat during basketball season.

I'd rather wallow in loses and self pitty for my entire life than be THAT rough ridin' pathetic.  There are fans of Florida Atlantic who are better than those douchebags.

My undergrad alma mater (not KU) has its very own special history of KITN, so I'm kinda used to it by now. If and when either school breaks through, it will just make it that much sweeter.

honestly, it's fascinating. from a physiology standpoint, what defines us as a KSU fan? some sort of voltage across our neurons? so like  a kstate fan has a resting potential of -65 mv, and a KU fan has a resting potential of -60 mv or something.

Oh, and I am not cool with this season because it's "better than Wooly", I'm ok with it because in the big picture absolutely everything is better than it was under Wooly, and is still pretty good relative to the league.

Yes. The program as a whole is still in pretty decent shape as long as we don't have a bad defection (McGruds, Samuels) this offseason.

The thing about KSU is we have just enough success to make it seem really sweet when we are good.  

In my 21 or so years of fandom dating back to 1987-88 we have been pretty good at something almost every year.

1.  Always been a 'Cat fan since 4th grade
2.  Visited both KU and K-State when picking a school.  KU was stuffy, faculty was pompous.  K-State had a prof give me a personal tour of the campus.
3.  When I graduated, K-State was listed as in the top 20 schools for my degree program in the US.  KU wasn't even in the top 100.

Have really enjoyed football over the last 20 years, basketball that last 6.  Would NEVER be a fan of another school.  Ever.
