ku fans

[kso_FAN]

Yeah Beems if say, in the same regional, you had Kansas and Missouri, and MU had a 1 seed, you can't possibly tell me that you wouldn't be celebrating your ass off if MU lost to a 9th-seeded Akron or Idaho or somebody like that. Every KU fan would.

You are turning into quite the turncoat brown-nosing pussy.  I wouldn't celebrate after a Mizzou loss... I might sit there and chuckle a little bit, but I wouldn't celebrate like KU had just won a national title.  Maybe you've been in Texas too long to realize that KU fans are different than K-State fans... there's an inferiority complex that comes into play with K-State fans.  Not sure if you've noticed, but KU has been kicking their ass for years now.

First of all, you calling anyone a pussy is hilarious. Second, I'm tired of you acting like us KU fans are some sort of superior breed of human, especially over KSU fans. That line of thinking is just wrongheaded. Does KU have a better overall record in the two major sports? Yeah. Is there more brand recognition and a general sense that KU is the superior school in the national perception? Yes. Do KU fans have a better overall track record of supporting the basketball program? Of course. But to think that one fanbase is better than another because they support a winning team over one that doesn't is the height of stupidity. If you start suggesting that we just "act better" than KSU fans as a whole, I'll laugh in your face. There are just as many bad person KU fans out there as any other fanbase.

Also, you wanna know why I respect KSU fans more than MU fans? Most of them, especially on this board, know they've been kicked in the teeth before in every sport, and goddamn it, when they win, they're gonna celebrate the hell out of it. MU fans think they've earned some sort of winning birthright, much like a number of KU fans, except MU has won NOTHING in anything. I can at least understand the sense of entitlement that KU fans get. MU fans acting like they have a combination of NU's football program and KU's basketball program is hilarious because they've been smacked around just as many times as KSU has. One fanbase recognizes it, one doesn't. Can you really blame the inferiority complex in Manhattan? Your program gets knocked around time and time again, and victory tastes that much sweeter when you finally get it. That's not something that should invite scorn. That's human. Remember the 2005 NU game in football? Don't act like we didn't flaunt the hell out of it in front of the 7-8,000 or so Husker fans that snatched up tickets from "loyal" KU alums as per bi-yearly tradition.

You wanna know another reason why KSU fans hate us so much? We're a milder version of the Texas fanbase when it comes to having bandwagon trash all over the place. Obviously, that's the sign of a winning program, but goddammit bandwagon fans are annoying. I want to see a bucket of slime dropped on every person wearing a UT shirt on campus here because they're making a statement that they're so weak-willed they'd rather support a school that doesn't care about them (or in many cases, doesn't want them ) than the school they attend. Don't act like there aren't a ton of KU fans like that out there as well. I've seen them on the Phog, I've seen them in Kansas, and I've seen them across the country. I don't blame KSU fans one bit for hating those types of people. Then, when the real KU fans act like their crap doesn't stink because they attend a school with a bit more name recognition and more money despite having the exact same academic requirements as KSU? I don't blame Wildcat fans for hating us. We're not all "classy like that." A lot of us are the exact opposite. I realize that the Snob Hill dynamic has been going on for years, but it just gets over the top. Be proud of your school, as like I said there are plenty of reasons to be proud to have attended KU. But don't act like your crap doesn't stink because of it. It's just not true.

Really, it doesn't matter if I end up going to KSU for grad school or not. It just needed to be said.

I have never indicated that I feel like KU fans are better people.  In fact, I despise about 50% of all KU fans.  My point was that K-State fans react differently to a KU loss than KU fans do when K-State or Mizzou loses.  I don't know if it's necessarily an inferiority complex or what, but that's just the way it is.  Like Dax said, when KU was one of the worst D-1 football programs in football, I always wanted to see K-State lose.  KU fans have had to endure our fair share of sh*t sandwiches as well over the years.  I really don't understand why that's so hard for you to accept, but I guess once you adopt the role of a brown nosing turncoat, it's hard to go back.

i watched the KU/UNI game at a KU sports bar in West LA, about half the people there were KU fans.  the other half were routing for UNI and celebrating their win.  has nothing to do with K-State fans.

Good post 42.  You ssid something very interesting that I agreed with.  KU does have a ton of bandwagoners (especially here in KC) and I do have to admit that comes from many years of being very successful at Bball.  Believe me, I've had to sit around and watch a lot of these games with these type of fans.  No matter what situation I'm in, I always get a kick out of throwing this one out when I've listened to enough KU B.S.  I'll just yell, "In what year did you get a diploma from KU?"  I always know that about 3/4 of the people in the room, bar, restaurant  are going to shut the eff up and get a stupid as look on their face!"  I'll then usually add something like , "Sit the eff down and don't say another word tell you've even set foot on and taken a class at the U of K."  They usually have no way to respond.  I'm always confident that the people cheering in the room for KState pretty much got their degree from there.  It actually takes character and class to cheer for KState.  It's not easy being fan.  Their have been lot's of letdowns and lots of tough time.  That's what makes these time even more enjoyable.  Needless to say I haven't stopped grinning since Saturday and I've gotten very few texts from the KU idiots I normally do.  I'm enjoying the ride.  Go Cats!

This was my favorite point.  That's how I feel and I think a lot of the longtime Hawk fans understand that a lot of KSU fans think that way.

But I can understand how it really gets under the skin of KU fans when we cheer for any random team that happens to be playing KU.  They claim that it wasn't K-State that won - but it was.  We may not really hate KU and we may not really *want* bad things to happen to KU - but we *need* bad things to happen to KU.  Just as KU wouldn't have had their little Orange Bowl party if KSU was still pounding them into dirt, this KU team has put a stain on the best KSU BB team since the 50's.  If not for KU, we are Big 12 champs - both regular and postseason.  If not for KU we are ranked in the top two or three and a 1 seed. 

There was a big stop sign staring us in the face if we reached Indy.  It's gone.  I'm happy.

O rly?

"KU fans gave him a standing ovation because he was a great player, and we're classy like that.  You might get there someday."

"It was quite a sight to behold, and it reminded me why I consider myself lucky to have been raised a KU fan."

"you guys don't have the first clue on how to win with class."


Give me a break, dude. Even if you didn't directly say "KU fans are better people and better fans than KSU," you sure as hell insinuated it. Oh, and by the way, fans who really know how to act like they've been there before don't go onto an opposing fanbase's message board and tell them how to act like they've been there before. Why do you think I don't talk all that much crap after we win? Because KU has been there before. You and a lot of other KU fans apparently don't seem to get that we don't have to rub every single victory in the faces of our rivals because they speak for themselves. The fact that you get so bothered when KSU and MU fans try to rationalize otherwise--and you HAVE to know that most of that "rationalizing" on this board is just trolling to piss you and other Jayhawks off--tells me that you don't have the confidence to truly act with the supposed "class" you say you have.

Oh, by the way, I'm here because it's a freer atmosphere and there are a lot of funny posters. And they don't have a guy running the board who thinks it necessary to censor references to homosexuality on the site. Just an FYI. Just because I don't always buy the KU party line doesn't mean that I'm not a fan.

PWNAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm smitten for 42.

 

[Dugout DickStone]

Except for totally overselling ku's fotball team, good post.

(PS, I gave ku's team a standing O after 64-0)  Even did the 2 finger in mouth whistle for them.

[badnewsjimmy]

42 - 64 / ben - 0

The fact that you guys celebrated like it was the national championship after KU lost tells me all I need to know about your inferiority complex.  Thanks for validating yourselves as a bunch of low self-esteem losers.  

Speaking of inferiority complexes and low self-esteem, aren't you coming to our site to validate your loss to us?

Actually, you do that constantly.  You're "we're classier" talking points are just one example.

A kid who doesn't go to KU and probably didn't attend one KU game this season is talking about bandwagon fans.  42, the full transition is almost complete.  Go ahead and strap on the power towel.

I find it funny that you didn't address his points (containing your own quotes) about KU fans being elitists... did you just forget or have you realized that he's right?
