So declaring that you hate someone is more admirable than calmly discussing what is openly a matter of public record?
Anyway....there sure isn't a whole lot of posting about people getting speeding tickets...
feel free to show me all those links.....
but indeed I really doubt you'd ever see a thread on BradleyFans in which numerous BU fans name the people or players on ISU that they hate.
we just don't have an obsession about ISU nor do we stay up late at night hating them and wishing they fail!
We can debate as to why it exists on a Redbird board but not on a BU board, but I think it the same reason we don't see people here with avatars and signatures that proclaim the "ISU S*CKS" or "Ruck the Fredbirds", etc....
It is similar to why BU fans don't rush the court when BU beats ISU, and it is the same reason why the ISU-fan dominated message board that just two years ago was where 100% of the Bradley fans hung out, now has only a fraction of the BU discussion this board has.
We love and have pride in our team, players, and program whether or not we beat ISU and whether or not we win all our games.
Seems ISU's success hinges totally on showing up BU. Seems some ISU fans have a deep obsession and concern about everything Bradley.
I cannot explain it, but it is certainly one of the reasons this board exists, since we feel we are quite different and don't need to see ISU fail to justify our season.

I'm a cubs fan. I recently made friends with a Brewers fan. He hates the cubs. I don't care about the Brewers.
it's kinda like that.

I have heard for the past week that They were hoping to have Ruffin available to play a few minutes a half. But it was truly going to be a gametime decision (not just a pretend gametime decision-).
This way, now that news has leaked out, ISU will have to prepare for both possibilities!
Well, if Ruffin does make his comeback tonight... then BBFan'77 is right... every time a player comes back from an injury, their first game is against ISU.

I just got done reading that ISU thread. What a friggin joke! :lol:
I'd love to put in a vote for ya Tornado but I wouldn't waste my time even registering as a member on their loser site...............What a bunch of @ss clowns
I didn't like those jerks when I went to Bradley during the Verace era, and my thoughts haven't changed since. Funny thing though. I really can't name a player of theirs that I disliked because none of them were really worth a darn and we always beat them like a drum. I must say that I did not like Bob Donewald................big-time whiner like Bruce Weber with an EXTREMELY boring style of play. Gotta hand it to him though. He did get the most out of a bunch of no-talent hacks and managed to give most teams a competitive (albeit boring) game.
Go Braves!!! Make this game your "Season Maker"!

I agree that I think Donewald seemed like a good coach, though he had little success after ISU canned him.
And you are also right that the talent level at ISU has been mostly below that of Bradley throughout history.
Here are all the ISU players who have played in the NBA--

That is half the number of players that have played in the NBA from basketball powerhouses like Idaho State--
http://basketballreference.com/players/bycollege.htm?sch=Idaho+State+University
and here is the list from Bradley. Come to think of it, maybe I do see why ISU fans are jealous of Bradley--

I thought Heemskirk had his career high (half but got injured again?) vs ISU.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Rabey. They seemed to hate him his senior year. Funny thread though. I'm glad they hate our players and coaches. The worst thing they could do is not care (since we have been mainly not caring about them).
