You pay $$$ for a hobby in a sport??
WTF |
Football was 100% not a priority when I picked a college in ye olden days. I was an engineering major coming from a HS with no football team in the NE, so it super wasn't on my radar.
But. I happened to pick a school in the south with a D1 football team. My college experience did not resolve around football, but going to games was super fun. It doesn't have to be a religion and it really take any time away from studies to watch a home game in person six times in the fall semester. |
LOL, we found the geek. "English major." The mutts are coming into "The Eyes of Texas"... Hook 'Em, Horns! |
Terrible showing for College Game Day UT!
Big Noon Kickoff was so much better at IU. John Mellencamp and Joey Chestnut! |
Vandy is 26 today. By tomorrow, they should be ranked in the top 25. And that is the sports story of the decade. Texas is trembling. |
I mean, Mellencamp and Joey C? How can anybody say College Football doesn't matter? It's 4 hours on a Saturday for a reason. There are 6 other days a week in the fall to grind. |
Both Army and Navy are ranked higher. Those damn LACS! |
You complete me. |

I agree, but there's a million other was to take time away from studies...including just playing the sport. At DC's college, you can check out a football, tennis racket, hell you can play golf on the college's dime or hike rather than attending a game. People take time away in more than one ways-you included I'm sure. |
Neither does violin, or piano, or chess, or fencing, or crew, or squash, or ballet, or fraternities/sororities, or ultimate frisbee, any number of other extracurriculars. That’s why are called extracurricular. Yet I would not want to attend a college that didn’t have vibrant extracurriculars. No one is saying you have got enjoy football, but that’s your value judgment; it isn’t fact. |
OP's obsession with college sports is strange and signifies someone whose life has to be compensated for its awful state by praising his college days. I hate seeing this behavior in adults

Really? I get it you really hate college football but c'mon... College students can multi-task. 🙄 |
Wow, this is probably one of the weirdest responses I've ever seen here... that's saying something. |
No one said they couldn’t. Just emphasizing that lacking college football- especially if you don’t care about it doesn’t mean you have nothing to do or don’t have just as exciting things going on campus. I personally find college football extremely boring and I’ve been to many Texas OU games with family |
