Thank you sir, Iāll gladly accept The First Annual Pretty Decent Award on behalf of us Pokes. Except that GoPokes83 assclown, rest of us collectively disown that turd knife.
I wasnāt called out by name but Iāll āsuch a lovely storyā yāall by saying I came here because someone on the defunct OrangePower board called this place out as āfull of deranged idiotsā and knew I had to check that shit outā¦but lurked for a year until 2011 when I finally had something funny to contribute. Iāll forever consider myself a guest yet this is my āhomeā on the internet.
Iād say years of mediocrity (we went 3-8, 3-8, 4-7, 5-6 from 98-02 when I was in Stillwater) makes us generally humble, but Kansas was even worse yet their fans on the KU/Pokes thread on Reddit yesterday had them showing their ass acting like they were gods gift to footballā¦so I dunno.
I learned humility watching my dadās USAF career progression, going AD as a captain and retiring full bird, but treating everyone equally with respectā¦enlisted folks loved him for that, and it made an impression. Itās also why I didnāt go to OU, they talked a lot of shit on OSU during my visit. Woulda gone to UT but a decade of living on base had me uncomfortable living on a huge urban campus.
