Yeah. It's funny to see other teams fans. They hate on players just b/c of who they will be playing for. Look at other schools threads of players who commit to ND over their school and you will see what I mean.

You can be on objective fan and recognize talent even if a kid doesn't go to your school.

thanks for the fix. I was glad to see that other teams were impressed with Golic's poise, technique and performance.

To me its odd that OSU fans hate ND so much. We dont even play them. Im starting to think they are jealous that they dont play us. For all the teams that play us its probably their biggest game of the year. In a weird sort of way OSU is left out of the club.

Not as much hate on that board as one may expect - actually some very good comments about Golic's intelligence which seems to be lost on some of the DD posters who want to lower admissions standards to get better athletes who aren't as intelligent or doing so well in school...

I only go over there if its something that pertains to ND interests, otherwise I could care less about them. Whenever I read its mostly hate and idiotic stuff with a few Catholic insults. Im still baffled why they are so interested in a, in their collective words, 3-9 joke. Many of them are fixated on ND. Theres also some tool named "the Stain" that regularly posts ND hate all over Scout boards. Ive seen him on the OSU board before. Still its nice to know that a few have brains enough to give Golic credit when credit is due.

What really beffudles me is that teams that we never play have such strong hatred for us. These fans come to ND boards just to bash. OSU, S. Carolina, FL, etc. they all come out of the woodworks when its time to bash ND. I don't know about you guys, but i couldn't give a rat's arse about those teams and i really wouldnt take the time to visit their boards, sign up, and post.

But, lets just remember, ND is irrelevant.

Germany, as an ND grad living in Ohio I can tell you that the hatred for ND has been here for a long time. The roots to that hatred stem from recruiting, as ND used to pick Ohio (with many strong catholic football schools) apart in the pre-Woody days. tOSU wouldn't stand a chance with an Ohio catholic school player if ND came callling. Woody Hayes refused to play ND because of this, he was afraid of giving ND any more exposure to Ohio than they already had. Of course nowadays we don't have that grip anymore, but the hatred remains....

Thats makes sense to me. Oddly enough it doesnt bother me either. So basically they are still jealous about shite that happend 30 years ago. ND hate just makes me laugh because I dont care what they think. I just sort of think they are losers who dont have much to look forward to in life.

To me this whole thing is strange. Ive been sporting ND gear for almost 30 years and nobody has ever said a word to me. The most Ive ever heard was "hey your an Irish fan?" or "ND is having a tough year arent they". Im from St. Louis so maybe its not really ND hate country. Illinois is not so bad either. Lots of ND fans in IL. Plus a lot of ND fans in IL will probably take a shovel to your head if you try to start problems with them.

being from youngstown, 90% are osu fans, and at my high school i was one of the only who liked ND, boy i took a lot of crap, especially after the osu game

Eh, I went to Cardinal Mooney and most of us were ND fans. I was okay with it.

A small sample of how it is where I work. We have a bout 300 employees in our building, I would guess 60% OSU, 39% UM, 3 ND fans, 1 FSU fan, and 1 Purdue fan (president). Yeah, its that fun......
