Most SCar fans are idiots. I know this may be a shocker...

But I've had 3 conversations the last couple days with my fellow #### brethren. These 3 morons don't necessarily talk trash to my face, but amongst each other. So I had some separate conversations with each of them.
They can't even name the starting 5 offensive linemen. I'm like, "Who's gonna replace TJ?" and he looks at me with a BLANK FACE. "Who's stepping in to Jerideau's spot?" Nothing.
Does anyone else have these problems conversing with SCar people? I've just never met a Clemson fan like that before... And one of these guys actually attended SCar.

Awesome dumb coot story here:
Jan 17, 2013, 11:29 AM
|

My buddy was in Walmart and saw two coots DECKED out in Gamecock attire. They were walking through the men's section where the Gamecock gear is on sale.
Keep in mind BOTH are already decked out, but none-the-less are still browsing through the jerseys.
Coot says to other coot "Hay they got Cawner Shawl jerseys here."
Coot responds "Who is Cawner Shawl?"
facepalm. hard.

and we were discussing "their" schedule for next year, so I pulled it up on my phone. After some careful observation, I made the comment, "Oh, you guys have an easy schedule next year!" Then my uncle chimes in..."yea right, what about Alabama, what about LSU?"
My insides exploded with laughter...

They know our schedule better than theirs.
Look at my post above.

First of all, Clemson is not my rival.

I have no problem with Clemson. I rather like them, actually. I don't care enough about USC or Clemson football to study up on their rosters.
My point was...just because someone doesn't know a bunch of players' names doesn't make them an idiot. It just means they're not a "superfan".

Just makes you a "bandwagoner" I guess.

his family was trashing him about how "easy" Clemson's schedule. When he told his uncle that USC's was easy in 2013, he replied "What about Alabama, what about LSU?"
Clearly he lacked the knowledge necessary to defend his argument. Therefore, he's an idiot.

Nice screenshot skills, but I don't get your point.

I have defended the people in the original post, who didn't know backup offensive linemen, as perhaps not being idiots. And I defended myself as not being an idiot. I did not, nor do I care to defend or comment on the people in anybody else's post.

don't appear to be a "superfan"...
The point I was trying to make is that yes, in many cases, not knowing players names, while being an avid fan, does make you an idiot, or at least look like one.
But I get what you're saying.

Nor do I have much use for them. Some people just do it for fun, though. I don't think of most of them as idiots.

No worries. I think we've beaten this dead horse to a pulp at this point.

They were "life long...die hard" SCar fans but couldn't even tell me who they were playing that particular weekend. They kept saying they normally just go over to tailgate and not go to the game.
That's a TRUE fan right there.

basic name for these ridiculous coots are BANDWAGON FANS..They could not more name 5 players on the football, basketball or baseball teams...as long as they are winning, they put on their ridiculous chicken fan wear and yell GO #####....but believe me when I say this.. that football team starts losing...baseball team start losing, they will disappear into the woods, take of their #### license plates and give their gamecock gear to goodwill....I have seen it so many times...so blessed and thankful I have always been a Clemson fan win or lose..support them no matter what...I feel sorry for the Clemson fans who did not go to Atlanta...

sports outside of the gamecocks, sec, etc. At least the ones in Columbia area are. In fact, when you get right down to it, Columbia is a horrible sports town for a market its size.
