Don't be a Hater
Just some advise, you can tell me to shove it, like most of you probably will but I have some advise for SOME Cat fans. Before you go off on bandwagon Griz fans and the sudden showing of Griz wear, stop and think.
If the Cats were playing in the National Championship, do you believe that folks wouldn't be jumping on the bandwagon and wearing Cat clothes at record levels. Living in a community that is about 50/50, I see lots of people wearing both schools colors. However, this week I have heard five different Cat fans complaining about all the Griz gear out there. Are you serious? I don't care if you like them or not, but acknowledge that they are playing in the National Championship and that brings out a sense of pride for some people. I would venture to say, quite a few of those would just as quickly don the Blue and Gold if MSU were playing on Friday. I mean, the amount of Cat clothing that was worn after "the streak" had to be at record levels.
Go ahead, be a hater. But if I were those of the ilk that feel the need to complain about all the Griz colors out there, I'd reserve them to your known Cat buddies. Because, should they win on Friday, it is just going to get worse. And my whole point to all of this is that many people who visit this board seem to think they vastly different from Griz fans, but the bottomline is that they are not and if the roles were reversed would be just as bad.
Just my two cents, let the flames begin.

Re: Don't be a Hater
Jizz fans, why do you even care what Cat fans think of you? Seriously,why even bother posting on BN? You're the much better team by something like a million light years but show some class. Yeah, we're the "Sewer City" of Montana football right now; but do you really get that much satisfaction out of telling the Cats how much they suck? You guys certainly have earned your glory but it is time to move up to D1 for you guys. Take your great philosophical thoughts to ejizz....or at least take your smack to the Oklahoma & Florida boards.

I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.
I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a damn.

Re: Don't be a Hater
Your right! I would expect to see more than the usual amount of griz wear since they are still playing and playing for the NC. But that doesn't mean we have to like it. Whenever I see any grizwear I don't like it. Whenever I change planes in SLC when coming to Bozeman I see dozens of griz shirts (zero Cat shirts
) and I go up to each one and ask them if they lost a bet. When they ask why, I say that I can't think of any other reason someone would wear should an ugly shirt!
All I see at my gym are grizzly shirts because the HS around the corner from me are "the grizzlies" and yes there colors are maroon and silver.

Bwana is just mad because he's going to be getting a piece of coal for Christmas for being so negative all the time.

Re: Don't be a Hater
I think Cat fans main problem with fizz wear is that its UGLY. Ruins the beauty of our great State.

Re: Don't be a Hater
But isn't Bobcat Nation just that? This site was designed for Cat buddies. If you crash the site as a Griz fan, fine. But don't complain when we say something against our biggest rival.Born2BaGriz wrote:Just some advise, you can tell me to shove it, like most of you probably will but I have some advise for SOME Cat fans.
