Hmmm... Who to root for

#1 Post by Sir_Galahad » Thu Jan 01, 2009 11:28 am

Well, today is the big Outback Bowl between The Iowa Hawkeyes and the South Carolina Gamecocks. We just moved from South Carolina to here in Iowa, so where does my allegiance lie? Hmmm...

I would root for the Gamecocks, just because I like their name.

Spurrier is not doing so well today. I'm wondering how much longer he'll be at South
Carolina.

Jeff's uncle was on an airplane with Gamecocks fans. They had a sign that said: No Trojan can stop our fighting Cocks. For some reasons TPTB made them take down the sign.

At least they weren't playing the Oregon State Beavers.

Indeed!

I am really hoping for a good game.

Good luck Uly's team but don't play too well. I don't want to hear that annoying fight song too often.

Sorry.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.
