This is why some people hate Michigan. People like you. There are many reasons people choose not to attend Michigan. Some don't feel like forking over such an insane amount of money for a teaching degree for example.

But I'm not a directional grad. I'm just not a member of thr precious snowflake PC generation, like you are.

And Michigan grads know how to capitalize and type in complete sentences. Or have things changed that much on campus since the 90's?

realize you're offending your daughter behind her back with this comment? Or, do you call your kid/s and their friends "precious little snowflake PC whimps" for endearment?

Also, the past was not better than the present. Society has leaped forward in so many ways yet sad old men and women continue to bitch about the present. Not saying you are one, but you're sounding like it.

A time or two, but she knows it comes from the right place.

Two more things since I can't edit my post. I did not in any way mean to denigrate directional students or alumni. Except for Amanda from EMU. She's still on my list 20 years later. Bitch.

Second, I'm a straight, white, married male. For someone like me, the world was absolutely a better place in the past. I would have had it way easier if I was born in the 30's instead of the 70's.

That's not to say I'd trade now for then, mainly because every other group had it worse. I'm actually pretty progressive, but I have a visceral disdain for political correctness.

I'm tired of older people (especially family members) saying everyone my age (mid 20s) is soft. Entitlement is problem throughout western society across nearly every age.

And trust me, only the shittiest students brag about school prestige. It's a weird way to justify poor performance.

Let's break by hating on Amanda from EMU. That bitch.

and there is no doubt Amanda is a class A Bitch. I will read further to see if she left any of life's lasting lessons for anyone, or possibly they did not exist then. As you were: I'll be in the area all day.

vs the non-alums, but as a fellow alum, I'll tell you you're in the distinct minority among us. Sure, there's walmart faction (like in every fanbase) but there's also the snobby entitled alum faction which makes me cringe just as much

And my opinion is that insulting a group of people while trying to take a stance or give an opinion is dumb AF.

It has nothing to do with taking a beating...

To be honest, I'm sure people may actually agree with your opinion if you weren't being a complete jackass.

But carry on.

Trying to be serious and not snarky. But why do you care? I didn't attend Michigan but I die a little inside when we lose, I'm ecstatic when we win. I pay a ton of money for tickets and apparel (at Mden). I practically grew up in the shadows of the Big House and my earliest childhood memories with my father are going to games there. I mean, I don't really care what you think about me but I am just trying to understand the psychology as to why somebody would take the energy to complain about fans who did not attend the school.

...I remember my Dad saying that there were people who didn't attend the University, but that were die hard fans. He called them 'subway alumni' (no idea where the term came from). He said that it was a sign of how good the University was, and that Michigan was proud to have them. 

 

the entire 'walverine' thing is a Spartan made slur, as far as I know. Screw them people. Its a Bullshit term. I'm thrilled people who didn't go to UM are such big fans. 

The irony is that over the past 10 years I've bumped into a ton of die hard Spartan fans who never went there.

the 'walmart' fans because they are jealous of them.  When you got something good, people scramble to be a part of it.  They want what we got, don't have it, so they denigrate it.  Simple as that.  So let's see if the boys can put a colossal beat down on them Saturday such that they have even less non-alum fans and we collect more!  Any non-alums out there, welocome aboard, there's more fun on the way and plenty for all!
