Why do I hate the Hawks so much?

I see alot of hawk fans every day with my job. I haven't said a word to any of them all year as we have beat them in every sport 1 by 1. Yesterday all day I was hearing things like nice win yesterday but you didn't beat a 1 seed and imagine if we make it farther than you this year. That is why I hate and will always hate anything iowa hawkeye.

Quite awhile ago I happened to be wearing an Okie St the day after The OHIO State wrestled Iowa. I'm checking out at Theisens and the clerk says "Well, I guess we beat the crap out of you yesterday". I replied "This is OKLAHOMA State". She say "Yeah, OSU". At that point I refused to partake in the stupidity.
Living in Cedar Rapids I've developed a good way to make Hawk fans shut up. Just start asking them specific questions about thier team (any team) like.
Who's is your heaveyweight htis year?
Who's your second string running back?
Who do you play next week?
90% of the time they will scurry back to their hole rather than admit they don't know **** about their team.
It is not possible they will make it farther.... ISU beat them straight up (the way ISU is playing now, it would be a blowout), ISU has a better overall record, better record in conference, more Q1 wins, tougher conference, and on and on. Stirtz wouldn't even crack the ISU starting lineup.
Watched 15 seconds, time to sober up Gr8. This is you punishing anyone who watches that.
Hawk fan on X trying to make them relevant by asking when was the last time ISU beat a one seed in the tournament. Another hawk fan told an ISU fan to answer the question after the ISU fan replied to the original poster that we beat #1 Purdue by 20 at Purdue and that Florida was the fourth #1 seed in the tournament.
Stupid fans base gets my vote!

What if you're surrounded by obnoxious family members, friends, and coworkers who love to rub salt in your wounds? Move away, divorce, get a new job?
Because their mascot is an Eyeball. Not the most powerful force on earth, a Cyclone, but an Eyeball. The Big ten has a rodent, a turtle, a couple of weasels, a seed, a janitor, a duck, a fruit processor, a color, and an Eyeball. The weakest set of Mascots in the sporting world. Soldiers, Indians, dogs, and lions are solid mascots. However, they just imported 3 solid mascots to up their brand.
I love Van Halen. This is nightmare fuel.
I think there might be a sweet spot in age where Iowa State fans don't hate Iowa fans.
If you're old enough to remember the 15 football losses in a row, many by a ridiculous margin, you probably hate Iowa and will always hate Iowa. You grew up in Iowa, had Iowa fans as friends in grade school / high school and took a lot of s*it from them. That's where I am.
If you're young enough to only remember the last 20 years or so, it has been fairly competitive and you are less likely to harbor that feeling of hatred.
If your X feed is full of Hawkeye burners, you probably hate them regardless of your age.
I have always hated the Iowa Hawkeyes. I will always hate the Iowa Hawkeyes. It is the thing that I do that causes my mother the most pain.
I do not care.

That band alone is all the justification needed to despise the sleazy Hawkeyes.
**** is a four letter word!
Ironically, I received an email from an old friend of mine (who is a Louisville fan) this morning. She said, she watched EVERY minute of the game on Sunday (she did not mention UK by name) and LOVED it! She will be rooting for the Cyclones the rest of the way.
THAT is the way to Rival!

If the Iowa Hawkeyes have a million haters, I am one of them. If the Iowa Hawkeyes have 5 haters, I am one of them. If the Iowa Hawkeyes have one hater, I am that hater. If the Iowa Hawkeyes have zero haters, then I am no longer alive. If the entire world is for the Iowa Hawkeyes, then I am against the world. 'Til my last breath, I hate the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Don’t know if there is an award on this site for post of the year, but this would have to be a strong contender if so. Well done!
So, sort of on the fence, I take it.
Their school colors are Piss and Dog ****. Nothing could be more appropriate.
Ours are ketchup and mustard; two delicious condiments. Gotta love us!
