"TWIS collects the collective spleen of the CFB internet and half-sympathizes, half-mocks it. This week: 353 West Virginia gifs! No Santa for UNC fans! A sad shirtless fat man! Platitude spewing morons! The only guy in Wisconsin who didn't call Jen Bielema something horrible! Kenya massacre anti-perspective!"

OMG!  I'm famous.  I'm famous!  I'M FAMOUS!  What do I do?  What should I wear?  OMG.  OMG!  OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course, all credit goes to LSAClassOf2000 - it was obviously all of his hard work.  I was just the messenger.  LSA, award yourself 1000 MGoPoints immediately!

Wait, what?  He didn't even link my thread, the one I started using LSA's data?  WTF Brian?  How can I steal someone's fame if you don't link it to me?  Bastard.

You all absolutely must take a few minutes and page through those WVU images.  So many winners in there!  My favorite is the boat accident GIF.  Laughing so hard I'm crying here at my desk.  Classic.

When I made those tweets, I will admit to being rather frustrated with the threads, but for some reason, I am reading the article now and laughing. Meticulous documentation and statistical analysis of schadenfreude has made us famous, it seems.

Sometimes people wonder why this planet has so many problems.

I'll point to one answer. Those people making the Kenya comments exist. Not only do they exist, but they probably breed or will breed someday. 'Nuff said.

I have no sympathy for Tennessee.  Those guys were always easy to hate, especially when that jackass Phil Fullmer was their coach.  

But how much must it suck to be their fans?  Florida is very hated, bitter rival.  And after this past weekend, they are now 6-22 against the Gators since 1976.

Not sure if any other MGoRuggers thought this - but there actually is a famous rugby union team in England called the Harlequins that wears loud uniforms - except that they'd worn pretty much the same kit from their inception, and a few years ago it was a travesty when the Premiership made them wear their "change" kits (away or alternate uniforms for us Americans). So they're kinda like Maryland except minus the alternates, which makes them kinda not like Maryland at all. I think.
