We either have the whiniest, most uninformed fan base in college basketball, or we have a lot of trolls on this board…

If I was a blogger, I’d be writing my opinions in my blog not on the Purdue Rivals forum.
But I’ll bite: yes I did go to Purdue. I just found it a bit odd that Pally Here kept using the word “nerd” as an insult, when Purdue is full of engineers (also referred to as “nerds” by other majors).
Not really Savy of him to insult and alienate a large part of the fan base.

Stating an opinion and backing it up with solid circumstantial facts is very different from whining Pally. (BTW We’re still waiting on the list of schools you claimed were itching to hire your saviors)
If you are unable to differentiate the not so subtle difference, I suggest you read and converse a bit more.
I think you are having trouble comprehending the subtle nuances of the English language.
If I demanded something, to whom did I make that demand to?
Demanding =\= Stating an opinion on a public forum. Sorry to burst your bubble.
You wrote, "sounds like us “blogger boy nerds” have been getting under your skin". But "us" wasn't referring to you? In any case, I don't see how it refers to Purdue engineers.
I have worked my entire career with people with degrees in engineering, sciences, and computer science. None of them are insulted by the word "nerd". So why do you believe that someone using the term on a message board alienates a large part of the Purdue fan base?
If I understood you correctly:
1) I’m insulted by the word “nerd” => no not really, was merely pointing out that it could be potentially alienating to a good portion of the fan base.
2) the people you know are not insulted by the word “nerd” => Great! but there is a huge world outside of your circle. Just to clarify, I’m not insulted but would (for example) Patriots or Red Sox fans really appreciate it if you referred to their fan base as “chowder heads”?
3) the connotation behind your usage was meant as an insult, correct? You can’t have it both ways.
Hope that helps.
I believe I’ve already answered that question, Pally.
There is still a laundry list of answers we’re waiting on you for though (ie the list of schools lining up to hire your savior)
Dude, do you have a job? Do you do anything?
How is it that you're always on here?
Good question. I’m in sales, March numbers are good. Plus most of my customers are west of me so my mornings are slower.
You didn’t ask that our B1G championship basketball coach be fired? Yes or No?
And if yes, replace him with who ?
I believe our previous conversations and the fact that I started a poll about this sufficiently answers that question, Pally.
Exactly.....Big time, you think a kid wants to tell people he's going to Chokermaker U....geeezzz...."hell to the No"
This ^^^ I don't see why some people are having such a tough time grasping this concept.
Whew. The only thing that was confirmed is that you have been unable to string together a full, coherent sentence in all of your posts on this board.
I see you understanding of chess is on par with your knowledge of Purdue basketball.
