The Red Sox are not full of t-shirt fans.

I beg to differ. At least a little. I can't go a day with out seeing Red Sox stuff. Before their first title I only saw it on occasion. I did go to a Rockies/Red Sox game right before they won their first title though and it was mainly Sox fans so that is why I'm only begging to differ a bit. :lol:

You are probably correct. I don't get to see it because I live in Austin, and 50% of people here are wearing orange every day of the week - and most every car has either a UT or A&M sticker/emblem. There is no change here based on how the team is doing, but I"m sure there is elsewhere - especially outside of TX. I know that I rock my CU stuff all the time, and have gotten a lot of **** for it lately. **** Dan Hawkins.

It's not like you can change yer bumper stickers daily
 
I also think that winning the title was the worse thing to happen to the Red Sox. They used to be special now they are just the Yankees lite.

I'd throw UNC on that list. See that logo everywhere. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed that with Boston fans. It was perfectly fine before the '04 WS, then suddenly guys from Massachusetts to Oklahoma were somehow long suffering, die hard Sox fans because they had a brother in law who worked in Fitchburg once.

I believe that Texas would be very satisfied to be independent. And who bailed on Austin last year? Every game I went to was packed.

Texas deserves the nightmarish realities being independent would bring. Last year Texas had a problem winning at home. I saw em bailed on frequently.

Sounds like Texas caved (for now) on not broadcasting Big 12 or HS games on TLN.

All teams have their corps die-hard fans, and in that regard BoSox fans were amongst the most die-hard of all. They're not T-Shirt fans, but there is an absolute swell of Boston gear around the country in the wake(field) of recent successes, they certainly have their fair share. But I think it's unfair to the base contingent to refer to Boston fans as "T-shirt fans" in general. Assholes, sure, but T-shirt fans, no.

And I'd argue that the new Sox aren't Yankess Lite, but actually, just Yankees flat out.

Pretty accurate list,

cut the sleeves off and put some chew spittle stains on it and it is likely a Nebraska shirt.

nebraska fans are a lot of unsavory things, but T-shirt fans is not one of them.

Yes to this. You can call the NU fans what you want but T-shirt fan is not one of them. Any group of fans that has a noticable number of toilet seats with their school's logo, does not count. It's not what they do, its who they are.

Yes they are tableing that idea for now...

Chip Brown (ugh) had a new theory this morning about the Longhorn Network: He thinks that ESPN might be realizing that they can't make their 300 million $$ back, and may try to convince Texas to turn the network into the Big 12 network. :lol:

Wow, it only took espn this long to figure it out?
 
Anyone been over to shaggybevo today? There's an interesting and funny combination of butthurt, indignation, delusion, lack-of-foresightedness, and subtle undertones of fear on this particular subject.
 
awww, some of them still wish they were in the pac 12 and want them "to get it over with already." stupid whorns, not gonna happen.

funny stuff over there, UT calling out A&M because they call other schools minor, while other UTers think it's ok to show high school if they convert to a B12 network.... and how does that make showing your recruits on tv fair to every other conference recruiting them? the mindset is amazing...
