[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your son is a total nerd who gets beat up in the locker room if he’s never heard of Villanova. [/quote]

And probably by the prick you are raising if they are anything like you![/quote]

Well he had it coming because it’s such a stupid thread.  No 16 year old boy who knows anything at all about college sports has never heard of Villanova.  So the kid has to be a dweeb. [/quote]

Ha. reminds me of the cheer that Thomas Jefferson athletes used when the school opened. That’s alright! That’s ok! You’ll be working for us someday![/quote]

TJ kids have heard of Villanova.  They’re not that ignorant.  [/quote]

My daughter went to TJ and was a high skilled performer in crew. Went on to Princeton. I told her not to engage in the you will be working for us in garbage. Although not familiar to some DCUM, which has a group which does not understand athletics, you compete against who shows up, and it does not matter as to the academic background or socio-economic background of the competitors. That is the challenge of competition. My daughter knew I competed against athletes from all over the world in my university days. Sneering about academics is just a built in excuse for losing. Either you are tough enough to really go after it - or not.

Only on DCUM could someone have a kid not know of Villanova. Forget about whether the kid is a sports kid. The NCAA tournament is one of the dominant entertainment events in the nation. Villanova has won it twice in recent years, challenging the dominance of the Power 5 football schools. Certainly an odd circumstance to not to know. [/quote]
