Many haters don't want us to win b/c they want us in the toilet forever. It can't be lorded over that we've never won anything if we do, blah blah blah. That would be the very definition of a hater especially considering we're not in the same league anymore.
It's not a personal statement so no need for the individual defenses. I didn't mention anyone by name (nor did the guy who replied to me) in this thread by design b/c mostly it's people screwing around and none of us know each other. PB inserting himself and then mentioning hubris was deliciously ironic (unless of course he was talking about something else in which case I'm mistaken). But we all come in contact w/ the haters day to day at work/church/etc or see them in other places either online or on the radio, etc.
And then there are fans that don't care and some that are rooting for us b/c we've not won squat in ages.
Plenty of MU fans LOL'g the other night when KU lost to whomever it was in hoops. That I assure you. In fact I only knew about it b/c it was posted on our rivals board as I don't pay attention to hoops of any sort prior to conference play outside of the Braggin' Rights game.
I have had KU fans tell me to a man the gleeful text messages were flying during our 4th quarter collapse against South Carolina. No different.
