LOL .. I think it's pretty cool actually to hang out for games with people from other fan bases .. I usually only have one rule .. keep it from getting personal and lets agree to shake hands at the end no matter what happens. Used to watch games with LSU, AU, Bama and Florida fans prior to my second deployment .. all were other soldiers. Me and the one LSU fan watched the UGA/LSU game together that year and just laughed like "hey, no matter what happens, we both still going to Iraq in a few weeks".
I like a lot of you on here because many of you keep the chippiness out of it. You guys were graceful when I praised Dobbs after the UT win a few years ago and were sympathetic over the Chubb injury a couple years ago. Every fan base has the delusional, the jerks and the utter wackos but generally, there are quite a few quality people amongst every team's fans.

At the end of the day only the worst of us can't see past a rivalry to see we're all people.
