Bama fans, Ohio st. fans, UGA fans, OU fans, Texas fans, ND Fans etc. say hi from their title Club!!

I'd never have and never will give a Dime to a a Education dept. I paid for my higher education and no Education dept. needs outside funding or donations they are over funded now and have issues because of pure waste and mismanagement... Jeez the Prof. /Administration are way over paid. They literally are bottom of the basement value employee's.

I have zero interest in Funding same Lame arse Educationalist who has no value to me at all and brings me nothing.

While sport is entertainment I agree and no one is obligated to donate... I'm 100% willing to spend a lot on that....because it brings me enjoyment and the more they win the more enjoyment I get and I'm willing to actually put forth $$$$ for that, I don't feel entitled to get something for nothing, as those who don't buy in believe.


So yes you are not actually a true fan at all because you are not willing to buy in and you can move on. Sad You want others to foot your entertainment bill without contributing. Stalin would be proud.
