  • From a Rebel fan all in good fun

    As you can see from the calendar, the game is coming up this week. Your confidence in your team is high, but rest assured, you will suffer humiliation when the sports team from my area defeats the sports team from your area.

    On numerous occasions, you have expressed the conviction that your area's sports team will be victorious. I must admit that every time I hear you make this proclamation, I react with both laughter and disbelief. "Ha!" I say to myself with laughter. "What?!" I say to myself in disbelief. How could you believe that your sports team could beat my sports team? It is clear that yours is inferior in every way.

    When the sporting contest begins, the players on your team will be treated as though they are inconsequential. It will be remarkably easy for my team to accumulate more points than yours. There are many reasons for this, starting with the inferior physical attributes of the players representing your area. Strength, speed, and agility are just three of the qualities that the players on the team from your area lack. The players representing my area, on the other hand, have these traits in abundance.

    I would not be a bit surprised if the individuals on the team from your area were sexually attracted to members of their own gender. That is how ineffective they are on the field of battle.

    Underscoring your team's inferiority is its choice of colors. It is ludicrous to believe that your team's colors inspire either respect or fear. Instead, they appear to have been chosen by someone who is colorblind or, perhaps, bereft of sight altogether. The colors for my team, on the other hand, are aesthetically pleasing when placed in proximity to one another. They are a superior color combination in every way.

    While we are on the subject of aesthetics, let us compare the respective facilities in which our teams play. While my team's edifice is blessed with architectural splendor and the most modern of amenities, yours is a thoroughly unpleasant place in which to watch a sporting contest. I know of what I speak, for I once attended a game between our respective teams in your facility. Let's just say the experience left me wishing that my car was inoperable that day due to mechanical problems, rendering it impossible for me to get to your area to attend the game.

    If you need another reason why the sporting franchise representing my area is superior, look no further than the supporters for the two sides. Not only are the supporters of the team from my region more spirited, but they are also more intelligent and of finer breeding than you and the rest of your ilk. In addition, the female supporters of the team from my area possess more attractive countenances and figures than yours. Some of the women from my side that I have observed could make a living by posing for pictures for major men's magazines. The women who cheer for your team, I'm afraid, are far too unattractive to do so.

    One of the more pathetic aspects of the team from your area is the fact that only people in your immediate area possess an affinity for it. By means of contrast, the team from my area inspires loyalty and affection in individuals who live in many other geographic locations.

    To illustrate this point, let me tell a brief story: Recently, I was on vacation in an area of the country far away from my own, and I saw many individuals wearing items of clothing that bore the insignia of my team. I approached one such individual and asked him if he originated from my area. He said no, explaining that he simply liked the team from my area and had for many years. Interestingly enough, during this trip, I saw no clothing or other paraphernalia bearing the insignia of your team.

    Do you still doubt that the team from your area is inferior to the one from mine? Just look at our teams' respective histories. In the past, we have defeated you on any number of occasions. Granted, there were times when your team beat my team, but those were lucky flukes.

    The day of the game will soon be at hand. And no matter how hard you pray to a higher power or how many foam accoutrements you wear in support of the team from your area, your team will be defeated. We will win and you will lose. This is your fate.

    Prepare for humiliation. It shall be upon you at the designated hour.

    Good luck, guys!

    You might win. But in ten years, Las Vegas will be out of water and we have more than we know what to do with here.So... Suck on that one for a minute.

          Pretty sure you need to cite The Onion when you post their material verbatim.

              This has been around for so long I would have just assumed you would know where it came from. It's been used on the message boards in our conference for a while now so pardon me if I just assumed you knew where it was from. I'll be sure to parenthetically site anything else I happen to use.

                Re: From a Rebel fan all in good fun

                Friends, I cannot state more clearly the following sobering fact: I cannot, in good conscience, step aside and let obtuse schmucks step on other people's toes. Some background is in order: If UNLVfansincebirth were to supplant national heroes with the most gormless voluptuaries you'll ever see, social upheaval and violence would follow. It is therefore clear that UNLVfansincebirth's editorials have kept us separated for too long from the love, contributions, and challenges of our brothers and sisters in this wonderful adventure we share together—life! His coalition is a shambolic cult based on hatred and exploitation. I put that observation into this letter just to let you see that he keeps saying that his debauches are the result of a high-minded urge to do sociological research. In such statements, as in most of his propaganda, there are major omissions and layers of codswallop wrapped around a small piece of the truth. The real story is that we need to compile readers' remarks and suggestions and use them to help people break free of UNLVfansincebirth's cycle of oppression. Why? Because of what's at stake: literally everything.

                Ceteris paribus, I'd rather have UNLVfansincebirth redefine success and obscure failure than shout direct personal insults and invitations to exchange fisticuffs. Why? Because there's a time to keep silent and a time to speak. There's a time to love and a time to hate. There's a time for war and a time for peace. And, I profess, there's a time to even the score. Or, to put it less poetically, I was completely gobsmacked the first time I saw UNLVfansincebirth challenging all I stand for. Since then, I've seen him do that so many times that I hardly bat an eyelid when someone tells me that there may be nothing we can do to prevent UNLVfansincebirth from making good on his word to implement a militant parody of justice called "UNLVfansincebirth-ism". When we compare this disturbing conclusion to the comforting picture purveyed by UNLVfansincebirth's fans, we experience psychological stress or "cognitive dissonance". Our only recourse is to take stock of what we know, identify areas for further research, and provide a useful starting point for debate on UNLVfansincebirth's hypocritical insults.

                By UNLVfansincebirth's standards, if you have morals, believe that character counts, and actually raise your own children—let alone teach them to be morally fit—you're definitely a mean-spirited nobody. My standards—and I suspect yours as well—are quite different from his. For instance, I warrant that UNLVfansincebirth is secretly planning to sue people at random. I realize that that may sound rather conspiratorial and far-fetched to most people, which is why you need to understand that UNLVfansincebirth once tried to repeat the mistakes of the past. If you consider this an exception to the rule then you unmistakably don't understand how UNLVfansincebirth operates. I hope, however, that you at least understand that he claims that I and others who think he's a crapulous miscreant are secretly using etheric attachment cords to drain people's karmic energy. Predictably, he cites no hard data for that claim. This is because no such data exist. My goal for this letter was to encourage individuals to come out of their cocoons and flourish. Know that I have done my best while trying always to spread the word about UNLVfansincebirth's insensate précis to our friends, our neighbors, our relatives, our co-workers—even to strangers. Let an honest history judge.

                  Seriously, They used to say the same thing when I was up in Oregon 15 years ago. Better chances are that your sister also known as your wife will lose your life savings you made by selling your John Deer in Vegas.

                    Good evening NIU fans. Rebel fan here. Don't know much about NIU but I know you come from a tough conference (at least in past years). I remember when you had couple teams go to the the Sweet 16 a few years ago.

                    We did play SIU this year and beat them. Our best wins are against #10 RPI New Mexico, #18 RPI SD State, #26 RPI BYU and #38 Lousiville.

                    I did a google on your team sorry to hear that your center was suspended for the year for DUI. It is good to see a program do what it right when it would be easier to let him off the hook.

                    Good luck and I look hearing more about your team and sharing information about our team. It seems like a tough draw because just looking at your raw numbers you look much better than a 9 seed (I mean you won your league and tourny).

                        Sorry, didn't mean to offend. Is that a touchy thing with you all. Northern Iowa University vs University of Northern Iowa seems to me to be the same thing? Is there actually a NIU in Iowa?
