Default Fan Conundrum
If your best friend was the premier player for an opposing team, and your team (school) is about to play them, who do you root for?

I face this issue today when the Baylor Bears take on Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl. Thoughts?
Leadership is getting someone to do what they don't want to do, to achieve what they want to achieve.

My friend would know me enough to understand I don't flip flop.

***** shouldn't be playing for the enemy!
Formerly the notorious nyc!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

I'd root for my friend to rack up all the yards and TDs he could in the 4th quarter after being thoroughly blown in the first 3 quarters.

The game is going about as good as I could possibly hope for. He's playing lights out as always, but our offense is shredding their defense even more haha..

He's is a great player. One of my favorites to watch this season. The kid is super athletic.
At that moment a voice came over me and said, Look up, get up, and don't ever give up. You tell everyone or anyone that has ever doubted, thought they did not measure up or wanted to quit, you tell them to look up, get up and don't ever give up. - Michael Irvin

Yeah he was my QB from 7th grade until our senior year of HS. As fun as it was playing FB with him, it was even funnier watching him run track against people who never stood a chance lol

I thought I read somewhere that he was an excellent track athlete. Awesome story man.

This was us before playing Texas High and Ryan Mallett in the state semi finals in 07.

Cool pic. I know a few players of different pro teams (including the NFL). They all know I am a Redskins fan. They know I never wish injury on any player, but also know I want my favorite team to win. I secretly hope that means they take it a little easier on my team, but it doesn't happen. haha.
