OT: Vote for CFP logo or just cheat like Texas people do

Submitted by the Glove on

As you would have expected, someone from Texas has inflated voting on the new College Football Playoff logo contest. The individual tried voting for the ninja star football 50,000 plus times.  Below is a link to the short article, also a linked to the actual voting site. I personally feel like I could have made the logos myself on Microsoft paint, but went with logo number two. There is also a hype video for the new playoff on the voting site as well. Go there and pick your poison.

I sir, am NOT a cheater, but I am a Texan. I also dont care much for your title. I was born and raised a Michigan fan and have fought Longhorns and Aggies all my life. Not all Texans are cheaters and not all Michigan fans are snobby 'my shit dont stink' pricks that generalize people solely based on where they're from right?

In no way would I be offended if somebody made fun of my state. If it was directed to a specific University I could understand. I'm originally from Illinois and they have the most corrupt politicians in the United States, but you don't see me crying about it if somebody says something.

Longhorn fans are almost as obnoxious as Ohio fans. At least A&M has some tradition among their fans/alumni and they will even cheer for girls sports, which is not easy for the casual fan. I don't care for either school down here and I will never root for either, but Longhorn fans in general just piss me off. Talk about snobby and stuck up fans.

Well, I actually like the compass rose design the best (though I agree, none of the four choices are particularly compelling).  I therefore refrained from voting, so instead of being inflated by 50,000 votes its total is now only inflated by 49,999.

Hey man you better watch it, I live in Texas, and these here fellers down South don't take kindly to messin with Tejas. If any of them actually knew what MGoBlog was I'm sure they'd be offended. Me on the other hand, Do not give a flying fuck when someone disses Texas. Every state has prideful people and natives are usually the only ones sensitive enough to care. And there's so many damn people here now that aren't originally from Texas(like myself), and I guarantee they don't care if you say mean things about this place. There's quite a few Michiganders down here now though that I've met, so thank god for that. As for the logos, they all suck.

Ya I'm back in Texas after 12 yrs in Ann Arbor. Loved it in Michigan but i moved back home for work. I'm in Baytown for now. Houston is the 4th biggest city in the US and has amazing food. Kemah and Galveston are really close. Only thing that sucked was the thunderstorms we get. Damn almost ruined my BBQ ribs. My family is originally from the valley and its damn hot and not nearly as nice.

Does it really matter when the logos all suck? I am still laughing about the name. FBS football is like the hot girl the NCAA will never get so they settle for annoying ugly girl aka FCS. And call it the DI National Championship to try to convince themselves it is better than the hot girl that won't give them the time of day.
