Some guys came into my work the other day and were bragging about Iowas amazing football season and I told them I couldn’t wait for basketball season, because then they would shut up... Well they all told me they weren’t Iowa Fans for basketball.... They were Michigan State, Kansas, and Georgetown fans.

I would say that they are not Hawkeye fans then, and those who are would like them just as little as you do.

Well, in their defense, it's not like they went to Iowa or anything.

Here's a strategy. Why not explain to them that they have absolutely no influence on the success of the Iowa football team and that it's ridiculous for them to be bragging about a football program they don't play for.

Question: why do you care if they brag? Start bragging about the #1 team in the country. Tell them you just became a fan. See if they get how ridiculous random team allegiance is--or any team allegiance for that matter.

Liking a team is one thing. Thinking you are better because the team you like is good, is completely illogical

Im on the track team at NIACC, and some teammates were ******* me off today. They were going on and on about how amazing their linebackers are, and pretty much saying they walk on water. Well, idk for sure but id say our bash brothers have more tackles than all the linebackers on their roster combined.

I'm sure they probably got their undergrad at Iowa then their masters and PhD's at Georgetown, Kansas and Michigan State.

Just tell them that you are a Wisconsin football fan. That should shut them up.

One of my good friends, who is someone that posts on this board is a huge ISU b-ball supporter and has been for years. However he doesn't give a crap about the football program. He follows Alabama football the way most of us follow Cyclone football. He has been that way for the 20+ years i have known him.

Most Iowa fans don't even know they have a basketball team, judging by their attendance. You try to give a Hawk fan crap about basketball and they just look at you with their eyes glazed over like you are speaking a foreign language.

That's called being "Roy Marbled". If the fan is talking about how great the teams of the 80's were, tell them to go get "Lohaused". That'll learn 'em.
