Classmate rooting against Wisconsin basketball |
|
He's not a K State fan but is actively rooting against Wisconsin basketball. The status includes a message about "showing lazy Union workers the door".
Come on-why does college basketball need political commentary?

4. That's what I thought. |
|
I enjoy watching games for the love of the game, not for the politics.

It's been a great game so far. I doubt any of the players are even thinking about unions.

11. But that's a different reason. |
|
It's not about how (another post) supposedly the Unions are paying for the program.
(I'm not making this up.)

13. My Big Ten loyalty ends with my team. |
|
I pull for teams I like and against certain coaches and teams.
In the Wisc-KSU game, I like KSU because I was there for 15 years.

15. I'm originally from WI |
|
so I always root for them.
I live too close to the KS/MO border and am so sick of the Border Wars so I refuse to root for Mizzou, KU or K State.

21. So, that game ended well for you. |
|
But, the Big Ten is sitting pretty in the Tourney so far.

9. And the kids playing basketball for UW are lazy union workers? |
|
Geez. I give those kids special props for going to school and playing ball while all hell has been breaking loose blocks away.
One thing I am really aware of is just how much hate is out there.

12. Some of the kids from the school |

are children of "lazy union workers".
He's always been an idiot.

18. He works for a university. |
|
I won't say where or what he does because he'd be easily identified.
I know that he does well for himself.

why someone would root for or against because of political leanings.

31. My grandfather attended |
|
but left when the war began. He never went back.
I wanted to go but by then we lived out of state and the tuition was far too high to even consider it.
