Where are all the ND fans?

  • sleeper
    I don't see any of ND nation posting on these forums anymore. Did we scare them off with all our talk of reality and how it works? Has the delusional fan base finally disintegrated?

    Thoughts?

    I had a beer with Ron Powlus in Chicago one time.

    In all seriousness, I'm surprised some of the ND fans who are still active on here haven't been posting. I mean, it's not like the Irish aren't any good or anything, and imo they've been involved in some games that would warrant some good discussion.

    I figured they'd be around here thumping their chest because they beat the worst USC (albiet, one of the worst USC teams in recent memory)

    Maybe they'll come around in the coming weeks when they thump Navy or some other awful team.

    I thought Karen Lotz got hit by a bus but just saw him post on a baseball thread. I think they finally realized we've been right all along Sleeper.

    I can't speak for the rest of the ND fans. But I'm still here. But since none of the other ND fans are posting in the College Football Forum, why should I bother? I'm not going to start a game thread and post to myself.

    Probably because the college football forum blows.

    Kind of the same for Michigan. I haven't done any game threads because last year I was mostly having a conversation with myself. Expected being an Ohio board though.

    At least you have a pair Webbie and keep slugging away. The potato-eaters just quit, like their football team did after the 1st Qtr against Bama last Jan...ba-dum, bum, bump..

    I can't wait for 10 ND posters to get on here and say the exact same thing as sherm said.

    They might. But for real. Lotz made a thread for the ND/Temple game the first week of the season. There was literally no posts on the thread until I made some comments at the end of the game. There were only 13 posts or so on the thread. Only 3 ND fans posted on it (totaling 4 posts) and only 2 had anything to do with the game.

    There wasn't even a thread for the ND/Michigan game. And there hasn't been a thread since.

    Not really worth it to create a thread for a game if nobody is going to post about it. So now I just go to Facebook and talk about the game with people on there. It's the same experience. Some people agree with my input. Some disagree. And some friends comment about how ND sucks.

    I still get the same experience, so I don't care to try to spark things up over here.

    So basically the pirates threads. Only really post when something positive happens. Avoid the negative times.

    Not like that at all. Nobody posted during the entire first game...which was a win.

    I'm still not convinced we have 10 ND fans still active on this board.
