WTF??? Ok Here is my anti-OU rant. Back when John Lennon said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus, people freaked out and burned their Beatle records and said all kinds of horrible smack against Lennon, who was NOT saying they were better or more important, but simply that they were more popular amongst the young people at that time. That was the truth - the Beatles were more popular than Jesus. But people acted stupid about it and misconstrued it.
Today in the newspaper (I think it's the Oklahoman) it says on the front of the sports page "In Bob Stoops, They Trust" But since you're talking about freaking OU GODDMANED FOOTBALL, I suppose all the Republican OU Fanatics will think it's damn skippy to equate Bob Stoops to God - the same people whose parents burned their Beatle records because of that damned hippie, John Lennon.
Marty & I have had this conversation several times that OU fans are simply a different breed. There are the ones that are OK and have liked OU always or they went there and they like them for that reason. Those aren't the ones I'm talking about - I'm talking about the ones that have the flags, the flip flops, the tshirts, the shorts, the hats, the schooner in their yard, etc. and put things like 52-9 Eat Shit OSU in decals on their car windows and are only fans when they do well.
At least Cowboy fans stick by their team all the time, not just when they win.
Marty & I went to watch an OSU wrestling match this winter and OU was wrestling that day too. When they announced the OU guys, (which OU does not have a great wrestling team and OSU is number 1 in the country by the way), they would have these swirling spotlights and use these big booming voices to announce the SOOOOOONERRRRS. Everyone else got bunk. GO POKES. Bob Stoops is not God.

Hey Tammy... I hope I'm one of the 'good' Sooner Fans... I have flip-flops and t-shirts and a hoodie and car flags and a mantle over my fireplace dedicated to OU paraphernalia. HOWEVER, I have ALWAYS been a Sooner fan, not a fair weather fan!! I don't act an ass when the Sooners lose (except that one time early this past season when those PAC 10 officials needed their glasses cleaned!!) And OU is my alma mater. But I was a fan LONG before the year I spent there for grad school!! :-) Oh, and I ALWAYS ALWAYS want OSU to win UNLESS they are playing OU. BOOMER SOONER BABY and GO COWBOYS! Danna
You're a real fan! It's the bandwagon jumpers I mean.
