SPARTY NO
Ahahahahaha!
October 25th, 2009 at 12:06 AM ^
Anybody that wants to talk about this game tomorrow meet me at the Taylor Walmart at noon!!! Sparty sucks!!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 10:22 PM ^
What a bunch of worthless retards. Has Iowa won a game yet this year that someone hasn't handed to them? USC is going to feast on these guys in Pasadena.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:26 PM ^
after watching them nearly get Tressel'd, what makes you think USC will feast on them?*
* besides the whole, "USC systematically dismantles Big Ten foes in Pasadena every fucking Rose Bowl."
October 24th, 2009 at 10:33 PM ^
That was a while ago, and Barkley has matured and improved a lot (kind of done the opposite of Tate this year), USC is playing some good football, and I just don't buy into the Iowa thing, it's frustrating the hell out of me because I know they're not that great, but teams keep handing them games with turnovers and other stupid mistakes. Maybe God's just on their side this year, I don't know. But yeah, if PSU couldn't come close last year, do you really think this Iowa team could?
October 24th, 2009 at 10:34 PM ^
What makes you think PSU this year could then?
OSU a second shot, basically on the road...? Maybe. But God, who could root for that...
October 24th, 2009 at 10:40 PM ^
I don't think any Big Ten team will, I think it's one of the least relevant conferences in the country this year, but I just have this thing where I HATE Iowa this year because I know they shouldn't be where they are. I also feel like Iowa represents the boring-ass past of the Big Ten that has become so worthless on the national scale, I want to see a spread team represent the Big Ten until Rich Rod can get us there.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:46 PM ^
Ha, actually I want NO spread team to represent the Big Ten TILL we can get there. I want our spread to be superior to all other spreads. ;-)
And frankly Iowa is probably the least offensive regular contender in the conference to me. (No pun intended).
But I've always been more in the camp that I don't care how the Big Ten does, just how we do. I just hope that when we get really good, the Big Ten suddenly hasn't become great again. No one cared when FSU beat up on a patsy conference, or when USC does it...just that they win. Win all your games, play in National Title games, you're bound to steal a couple. That's what I want us to do. Be good AND be able to beat everyone easily. But YMMD.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:50 PM ^
I've always felt the same way, but if the Big Ten gets to the point where it's a national laughingstock (and thanks primarily to OSU and the continuous Rose Bowl crushings) then that might take some respect for the wins we get in the future. Sure, the ACC and Pac 10 haven't been top-notch, but they're not always in a huge national stage come bowl time where they get destroyed and embarrass the whole conference. That might stick in voters' minds in the future.
October 24th, 2009 at 11:34 PM ^
OMG, I know!!! They are worthless retards indeed!!! It took them until overtime to beat us!!!! Losers!!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 10:22 PM ^
mmmmm schadenfreude tastes DELICIOUS
October 24th, 2009 at 10:23 PM ^
i hope they take the big ten...but wow, what a game that was
October 24th, 2009 at 10:23 PM ^
sparty no.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:23 PM ^
Someone posted this 1:37 too soon...
Thank god Iowa won though, the thought of watching MSU play the rest of the season with a shot at the Rose Bowl makes me nauseous.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:24 PM ^
Welp, it's off to RCMB to salvage my day.
October 24th, 2009 at 11:41 PM ^
Me too!!! And even tomorrow when I'm cleaning toilets at work I gonna be laughing about Sparty getting humiliated!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 10:24 PM ^
A definite +1 for all instances of "SPARTY, NOOOO!"
October 24th, 2009 at 10:25 PM ^
Dewey Defeats Truman!!!!!!!!!
October 25th, 2009 at 1:22 AM ^
I was just waiting for someone to post that as I read through the comments.
On a side note, Thomas Dewey is arguably the most famous person ever to be born in my hometown.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:26 PM ^
You do have to feel bad for MSU there - it sucks to lose like that. And since I'm not like most Spartans, their lose doesn't help today's loss one bit.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:33 PM ^
It's not so much Yay, MSU loses...it's thank God they're not in first place in the Big Ten...
October 24th, 2009 at 10:48 PM ^
This.
If they'd have won there's no way I would have made it through the week without doing something I'd regret for a very long time.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:49 PM ^
No, I totally wanted MSU to lose, but it doesn't really change the fact that UM lost today and needs to rebound. As we all saw today, Sparty No!!!!! is about as automatic as the sun setting in the West and rising in the East. But I never want to be like a MSU fan who cares more about UM losing than MSU losing.
October 24th, 2009 at 11:44 PM ^
Me neither!!! But it's so, so great that they lost, even though we did too! Better even because they would have been in 1st in the Big Ten!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 11:41 PM ^
Their lose doesn't me either!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 10:27 PM ^
You most certainly do not have to feel bad for MSU. I'm so happy for Iowa!
October 24th, 2009 at 10:27 PM ^
Was very satisfying.
The sting of PSU doesn't hurt that bad anymore
October 24th, 2009 at 10:44 PM ^
Did you post that as a troll. That would be awesome.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:44 PM ^
From that thread:
"What really pi**es me off is this gives gasbags like Drew Sharp more ammo to rip on MSU, which you know he's just dying to do. I shouldn't care, but I do."
So they hate him too?
October 24th, 2009 at 10:47 PM ^
If Drew Sharp criticized MSU 1/10th as much as he did UM, he wouldn't have a job in the state. He handles MSU with kids gloves in comparison to how he treats UM most days.
October 24th, 2009 at 10:55 PM ^
Probably because he knows we'll handle it with so much grace.
/s
October 24th, 2009 at 10:47 PM ^
His mother rips him on her blog
October 24th, 2009 at 10:49 PM ^
This thread should be locked and/or deleted.
October 25th, 2009 at 12:21 AM ^
This thread should be renamed Sparty Noooooo!
October 25th, 2009 at 12:41 AM ^
I never feel bad when Sparty loses. I also love it when they blow one at the end.
Dantonio handles himself very classlessly, especially when it comes to The University of Michigan. Karma is a bitch and it feels good to see jackasses lose in the end.
October 25th, 2009 at 1:02 AM ^
Your second paragraph is too true.
October 25th, 2009 at 1:23 AM ^
a boring ass big10 team thats8-0 and we got an "exiciting" spread team that's 5-3.
which one would you rather be?
October 25th, 2009 at 10:45 AM ^
I grew up near Lansing, and I don't mind a BIT when they blow it like this...60 members of my HS class went to MSU, and I was one of only four to spend my college career in Ann Arbor...point is, I've heard so much pro-MSU (which means mostly anti-UM) bullcrap, I can't stand how Sparty can't win with grace...
October 25th, 2009 at 1:48 PM ^
You're right. Nobody was better at winning with grace than our own Mike Hart. Everyone could learn a lesson from him.
October 25th, 2009 at 1:56 PM ^
Given that about a third of this thread (and growing) now consists of posts by MSU idiots, we may want to think about deleting it.
