I'm still deciding on their fans though :)
As is the case with most, if not all fanbases, including yours, there are rational posters, irrational posters, complete loons and everything in between.
There are also polite respectful posters and rude, obnoxious posters.
Unfortunately, the latter are the ones that we focus on in making judgments about the fans of a certain team.
MT fans like to speak poorly of WKU fans, and in terms of some WKU posters, their opinion is justified. La Tech fans do the same. I have no problem with that.
But, that argument goes both ways. It would be very easy to isolate on the behavior of a couple of La Tech posters..... or MT posters..... or FIU posters......, etc. and decide that all of the fans of those teams are ignorant, obnoxious buffoons but I would obviously be wrong.
Something else to consider is the manner in which I post will impact how people respond to my posts. Some posters write inflammatory stuff about a particular team and then go all holier-than-thou when the fans of that team react harshly. The hypocrisy of such behavior is astounding.
