The Significance of School Colors
So our school colors are maize and blue, right? I found it interesting that when Rich Rod became the UM head football coach that the colors and uniforms were quite similar to those of WVU. The tradition of Michigan football has dictated that our uniforms remain loyal to the university colors.
But whoa, then Nike entered the picture and now Oregon (The University of, University of or whatever of anything of whatever) has something approximating 300 different football uniforms. WTF? WTF Phil Knight's influence on Ducks' ball?
So now Nike is the official sponsor of WVA and the blue mountain school seems have almost as many football uniforms as Oregon. They are wearing some uniforms in tonight's whatever bowl that appear to be colored white, black and silver, with just a touch of blue/yellow on the numbers. Is this Slut University Sports?
Then there is Notre Dame: the colors are dark blue and gold, but oh shit when the Domers really really need a victory before the old alumni crap their pants they wear green and some form of gold. This is yet another slut college.
Well then we have to mention Sparty University with Nike uniforms that are as goofy as are their academic/social/criminal standards. Just how many variations of shit green and white can one pathetic just above community college university have?
Maybe our last couple of years sucked, but we have the integrity of maintaining our colors and essentailly the same uniforms for the past 100 years.

Goodbye: Anthony Zettel. Book it. Neg bomb me away if it doesn't happen, but I've got a credible source that affirms Zettel is 95% Blue but hates the color yellow. Anthony Zettel is only announced he is going to PSU at 7:30 tonight because he hates maize. GeauxBlueFinest it.

Of his true love's hair. I just don't know.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:03 PM ^
I understand why you wear a helmet all the time.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:06 PM ^
When I post.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:11 PM ^
SHUT IT OFF!!!
December 28th, 2010 at 8:06 PM ^
the hell are you talking about?

Personally I like the limited Pro Combat Jersey's Nike released this year. Some are better than others, i.e. Oregon State's throwbacks for the Civil War game, and the ones WVU is wearing tonight.
According to the Nike website the WVU jersey is a tribute to the coal miners who are the cornerstone of the region. The helmet is to signify the color of a miner helmet that is exiting the coal mine, covered in dust with a single light (small yellow stripe). The numbers have a similar "dusted coal" color scheme. I dont see WVU wearing more than 3 unis this year so not sure why this was even a thread.

My favorite part is how vague your descriptions and facts are. All very ambiguous and uninformed. At least try to come up with the Bowl's name and don't refer to schools as "slut" schools, just because they're colors aren't as traditional as the Maize and Blue. The uniforms are streamlined and contemporary, and alot of people like them. It just wouldn't work at UM.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:14 PM ^
I could give a crap about the name of the very minor bowl game and perhaps you might get it if you might expand your universe of understanding humor. Of course I know that it is the Champs Sports Bowl because I am watching it with a bunch of NCSU alumni, but you apparently could not get that part.
I sincerely wish you the best with your contemporary understanding of traditonal university sports.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:19 PM ^
He must only have a traditional understanding of contemporary university sports.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:20 PM ^
What exactly was funny about your post?
December 28th, 2010 at 8:24 PM ^
spend more time speaking with those alumni and less time making terrible and embarassing posts.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:25 PM ^
Sorry, I just don't think anyone wants to read a post that includes:
"Oregon (The University of, University of or whatever of anything of whatever)"
"WTF? WTF Phil Knight's influence on Ducks' ball?"
"They are wearing some uniforms in tonight's whatever bowl...Is this Slut University Sports?"
"but oh shit when the Domers really really need a victory before the old alumni crap their pants they wear green and some form of gold. This is yet another slut college."
Maybe it's just me...

C-c-c-c-c-c-COMBO BREAKER!!!
December 28th, 2010 at 8:11 PM ^
But when I do, I prefer ones wearing metallic colors with shades of blue or green
December 28th, 2010 at 8:11 PM ^
Your mom went to a slut college.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:14 PM ^
I HATE UPVOTING YOU
IT MAKES ME SO ANGRY
December 28th, 2010 at 8:17 PM ^
My mother never went to college.
So WTF did yours do one way or the other?
What kind of slimey worm are you that my post made you comment about a dead person? Are you proud of insulting a nice person who died 15 years ago? If so, then die now.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:21 PM ^
1: I'm not sure what I did that makes me a poorly spelled bag of Germans.
2: It's Tuesday; stop drinking so much.
3: It's a generic joke not actually intended to be a stab at your mother.
4: I plan to live at least another 60 years thank you very much.

I blame Bruce Springsteen then. Or Tom Cruise. PSU had him at hello.

Get Props for the reference!

And what's the deal with airline food?
December 28th, 2010 at 8:24 PM ^
This isn't the first time I've said this to someone, and I'm sure it won't be the last, but...
You're either dumb, have way too much time on your hands, or both.
December 28th, 2010 at 9:03 PM ^
Appreciate the words of wisdom. +1 for you.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:38 PM ^
Nothing more or less, so go wild with your crazy responses.
The assholic combinations of Nike uniforms are absurd. The response that my post engendered simply displayed what a bunch of dufundi respond to simple posts.
By the way, you have one very ugly cat.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:41 PM ^
Are you an assoholic?
December 28th, 2010 at 8:47 PM ^
Who isn't?
December 28th, 2010 at 8:41 PM ^
A simple post about uniform colors would have been: "Hey guys, we have Maize and Blue uniforms!"
Your post used the words "slut university" multiple times. Also the phrase "university of or whatever of anything of whatever."
In my book that counts as something less than a simple post about uniform colors.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:42 PM ^
The uniforms are absurd...you to. A lot of people like them, including the kids that play at the schools.
But thanks for posting this after the sting of the Zettel news. A good laugh is always nice.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:50 PM ^
Wat's a dufundi?
December 28th, 2010 at 9:09 PM ^
Sounds exotic. Is that something you learn at slut university?
December 28th, 2010 at 8:52 PM ^
That's really his cat.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:39 PM ^
Actually...not the same uniforms for the past 100 years. The wings were added in the 30's. And there is a bit of debate on the colors:
December 28th, 2010 at 8:42 PM ^
OMW FACTS!
December 28th, 2010 at 8:48 PM ^
OH MY WAD? That is just NSFW or H.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:48 PM ^
Sorry. Just felt the urge to be needlessly obscene.
December 28th, 2010 at 8:52 PM ^
Facts...on the internet...Never! Never I tell you....
December 28th, 2010 at 8:56 PM ^
Do they really train them? How long does it take to get a degree? Sounds very intriguing.
December 28th, 2010 at 9:00 PM ^
Not sure. I got a cousin going to osu. I'll ask her.
