This is going to get away from talking about sports a little bit but its going to be good for all of you to read. I want to inform you of what actually happens when you go to Reno, Nevada.
I went up there for the football game again this year, UNLV my team against there rival UNR. Yeah I know we got our ass waxed. Our coach is to blame and if he isn't fired by the end of the week we have problems in that athletic department. Now, I use to travel to Reno for the rivalry game every year when I was in school and it was great because we would actually win. Reno would play UNLV in Vegas and we would win there too and it was a great battle.
There is something about that crappy city that makes people ignorant. First off, its fine to talk smack to the other team like, "Your going to lose Vegas," or "We own you, vegas." These are normal comments expected. Do you know what I heard all weekend? "FUCK YOU," or "Fuck UNLV." I mean real intelligent. I'm guessing these are the people who come from some small town in the Midwest. All you can come up with is the word FUCK and a middle finger to go with it.
I tired to think back of when I actually told another fan fuck you because my team was kicking the shit out of their team. ...................................................................................................................I got nothing.
I may have said shit we played great that sucks for you, or just a little friendly smack talk and it was to people I actually knew and were friends with. I never walked by someone and flipped them off for wearing the opposite teams colors. We were walking to the car and this cute Blondie pulls up next to us. She was alone in her car. She rolls up to my friend Brett, rolls down the window and says, "Excuse me, FUCK UNLV." I was shocked it sunk to that level. I bet this girl never cussed in her life until she started to attend the University of Nevada at RENO. We were sitting about 5 rows up in the far corner of the end zone where the UNLV section was located. Every Reno fan that walked in front of the section threw up a middle finger and said fuck you. I was so shocked about the way I was treated but I guess its to be expected. Only my ex-girlfriend told me fuck you more then a reno fan did! She might have been one for all I know!
As far as the game goes it was close until the fourth quarter. I was sitting next to some students and young women who should not have had the clothes on that these girls did. Even the older and I mean older gentlemen to my right was like what is going on with what these girls are wearing. It was 55 degrees outside and windy. This girl had a t-shirt on as a dress and I'm about 90% there was nothing on under neath. My boy Troi will confirm this. If this was my daughter I would not be too happy with what she was wearing. I couldn't believe she left the house in that because it wasn't like she looked good. She was a little hefty and ill just leave it at that.
There were fans so intoxicated they didn't know what quarter it was in. One guy who will remain nameless was yelling at the referees in the third quarter because he thought it was overtime and they were conducting the overtime wrong. This guy was also drunker then George Jaekle after a Bonanza basketball win.
All in all the week'n was very interesting. I probably will never go to another UNR/UNLV football game again in Reno. I think their fans are very disrespectful and uneducated about the program. I guess the fans reflect the coach. Chris Ault basically told Mike Sanford "FUCK YOU" by running up the score on him. I would thank Ault for that though because you just got Sanford his walking papers. I guess there are two positives out of this weekend. UNLV will now be looking for a new head coach who will kick the shit out of UNR when they play and basketball is right around the corner and LON's guys would never be humiliated like this.
I want to give a shout out to the TCU player who had a huge block on sports center without his helmet. Also to all my boys who were with me in RENO what a great trip with you guys despite the white trash around us!
That's whats on my Mind!!!

I get it but I don't. Hence why I changed my icon to bitter (beer) face guy aka Simszee. Since sports became a focal point in this country, fans have been obnoxious, rude and a slight overreactive. That's just the nature of sports. However, I tend to agree that people, humans, homosapiens take it to such an extreme that's unnecessary i.e Maryland fans towards JJ Redick, Eagles fans (including Yarneeezy) and let's not forget Raider fans (no comment). I mean is it necessary to taunt the opposing player throwing an inbounds pass at Cameroon Indoor? Or throw ice balls at Santa Claus during X mas (Philly)? Christ almighty. Memo to 42 yr old face painted, costume wearing, swearing father of 3 (girls) - You yelling is not going to help the situation. No one is listening to you. You're in the stands and not on the sidelines for a reason..YOU KNOW NOTHING! Stop being the arm chair, washed up, beer guzzling, wing stuffing, dead beat dad you are - let the players play and coaches coach. But Simszee, I think your passion bucket is a bit overflowed itself. You get fired up about calls in que ... and women... and Detroit (who will loose to my Twins 2day PAH!)
