The UC Cal Fan's Guide To Hating Oregon

Greetings Auburn Tigers fans!  TwistNHook here, from SBN's UC Cal site, CaliforniaGoldenBlogs.  You might have noticed today that one of the moderators from over at RollBamaRoll went to AddictedToQuack and wrote this guide on hating Auburn.  I thought, well, why should Oregonians have all the educational fun?  Why shouldn't Oregon's Pac10 rivals help you guys better understand the Duck mind?  Ostensibly, Oregon State fans from Building The Dam should be writing this, but a)they barely exist and b)we came closest to beating Oregon this year, so we have a special appreciation of the Nike mindset.

Now, the first thing you have to know about hating Oregon fans is that they are big doodoo heads and OH GOD IT HURTS SO MUCH, MY TYPING FINGERS, I'VE SPRAINED THEM ALL, HOW COULD THIS HAVE HAPPENED TO ME OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN MERE MOMENTS AGO MY TYPING FINGERS APPEARED TO HAVE ABSOLUTELY, COMPLETELY, TOTALLY NO PROBLEMS AT ALL???  I'M A HIGHLY TRAINED BLOGTHLETE READY TO COMPETE IN THIS HIGH OCTANE HATING COMPETITION AND YET THIS SURPRISING TURN OF EVENTS THAT IS IN NO WAY FALSE HAS OCCURRED?!?!?  PERHAPS I SHOULD LOOK TOWARDS THE SIDELINES TO SEE IF - OH NO IT HURTS MORE THAN EVER! WHY WOULD LOOKING TOWARDS THE SIDELINES HURT ME EVEN MORE???  BUT IT HAS!  IT HAS!  IT TOTALLY HAS!  NO FOOLING!  SCOUT'S HONOR!

I'm Anatidaephobic, so I can't stay too much longer.  I fear we'll get some new friends who might look at me.  In conclusion, I just wanted to type, using my now miraculously healed typing fingers, how much we are all depending on you guys using the local dialect:

WAR CONDOR! 

Wait, I did that right, right?

you wouldn’t have bat an eye if it had been a picture of Kenjon Barner from earlier this year. You have very real ties and very real emotions when you look at that picture. The same way I do when I saw Dixon rolling around on the ground.

Quack Quack Bitches!

by Quack Addict on Dec 10, 2010 1:51 AM CST up reply actions   2 recs

Well, I do appreciate that there is an emotional strength to the fact that I saw that occur just 20 feet away.

That said, I think there is also a big difference between watching an injury occur where the injury is obviously severe, but not life-threatening and watching an injury that is life-threatening. Watching Jahvid’s family come out onto the field. Seeing all the players in prayer circles. It was sad, it was surreal. It reminds me of the true unimportance of sport and why having fun, even in a digital format, is much more important than taking winning or losing that seriously.

In conclusion, fuck you Oregon! May Cal always defeat you in women’s basketball.

I’m imagining a flock of owls (maybe 8-10 owls) swarming the aardvark and pulling it apart, like a pack of piranhas. Except owls swallow their food whole. So, realistically, there are a few issues with that scenario.

What if it’s because of a hilarious situation in the kitchen where the player is trying to make pizza dough naked, so throws it up in the air, but it lands smack in his eye, causing him to crash backward, tripping over a chihuahua and falling off his 2nd story balcony into a swimming pool except it’s a belly flop so he gets a nasty rash.

Oh, my apologies

I should have clarified: it has absolutely nothing to do with AU’s lack of championship in 2004. I’m a more recent convert (not affiliated with AU until 2008).

It has everything to do with hating USC. Hated them for years — even before I had D-I A team to follow. Hated them back since about the time of Robinson’s second stint.

Can’t say why. It’s an irrational hatred like that. Maybe it’s an intense, deep-seeded hatred of the McDonald’s-inspired color scheme. Maybe it’s because I’m a closeted, repressed UCLA fan, trying to project my own wretched self-loathing onto some external group.

Maybe it’s my own personal version of “Fuck Clemson.” Can’t really say. Sorry.

by AU Tiger on Dec 10, 2010 10:49 AM CST up reply actions   2 recs

Even though your hate is sadly misplaced, I can respect the level of spite. And the second Robinson go-round left me a tad bitter.

The only thing you might sort out is your timeline about the Golden Arches – we had the color scheme first and they copied it… San Bernadino isn’t where you go for peak inventiveness.

I know that you're right on the timeline

I just hadn’t thought to phrase it as “every time I see their colors, I think of Ronald f—-ing McDonald.”

And I guess I should feel bad. I’ve never had a bad run-in with a fan or anything like that.

Still, I wouldn’t say that the hate is misplaced. It’s actually kind of fun. I was over the moon in 2006, when they stumbled against the Bruins.

After skating out of their near-disasters against Washington and Washington State (and a loss to a then-unranked Oregon State) that year with the media still gushing over them, it felt like karma had finally set things right.

It gave me a warm and fuzzy, yet hateful feeling inside. Like hugging a cute little puppy until it’s crushed to death.

So yeah, the Grinch picture may be just about right.

Perhaps

But the colors of both USC and McDonalds set astir an inner-turbulence when I see them: the former bred of seething, vitrolic hatred, and the latter from the traumatic memory of gut-wrenching nausea and gastrointestinal distress.

Or vice versa. I dunno.
