The osu spin machine will kick in anytime someone questions the practice of subsidizing aggie athletics with state money.
    Following the poke loss to OU this past season I heard several people including Traber on the radio saying that “osu has arrived” > They said the same thing after the poke cotton bowl loss.

    Until osu ends the practice of taking state money for its athletics and starts using it for its academics programs is a lie to say osu football has arrived...... and that's what's so disingenuous about the poke propaganda in our local media.

    There are a few members of our media who act as osu protectors. Kelly Ogle and Jim Traber are the 2 biggest, but there are other participants.

    But I don't hold out any hope for state tax payers to receive a better deal on their tax money.... as this amount of money is a significant percentage of poke revenue. osu finished 5th in revenue a 10 league conference.


    In spite of what the poke propaganda machine says osu athletics has serious revenue issues that appear to be growing significantly worse.

    Typical aggot spin. osu is 1-4 against OU over the last 5 yrs. And, 3 of those 5 games were played in stoolwater at the "hallowed" Boone Pickens Stadium in front of the aggie fans. To take it a little further back that's 1-10 over the last 11 yrs. And, all time it's 84-17. State tax dollars not being very well spent.

    You say a lot of things as if they are fact and we should just take your word for it. Can't you point to some facts about the tax money that OSU uses for athletics and OU uses for academics? I'm not trying to call you a liar or anything, I'd just like to know your sources or how you know those things.

    Folks should worry about strong seasons and national rankings, and yet like many OU fans who think OSU is nothing to worry about and likes dismissing them, your entire self esteem seems to be based on trashing them. No matter how the rest of the season goes, as long as they beat one team (OSU), then they're awesome.

    It's really sort of pathetic. If anything... it makes OU look like the little brother trying to catch up. Why so mad bro? Got something to prove?

    calling someone on a message board a troll? whats next? are u going to say the word OWNAGE? I bet you are waiting to post the famous video of "its Friday" song. Is myspace still your social media of choice? Are you still hoping for the day when facebook opens up to everyone not just students with an .edu email address?

    went to Stillwater on Saturday, heard numerous fans yelling worse things than "piece of crap". loved all the empty seats, no way there was 10k there.

    Favorite part was the sign from the jerri askins looking lady that said "we support Marcus" so I guess some fans support him going into the stands and pushing a fan, or maybe they support him throwing a temper trantum by kicking a chair? or maybe they support the racism claim he first made after going into the stands that no one else heard....

    The DOK among other places has published these facts many, many times.
    Its been a source of many jokes among many OU fans going back several decades that I'm aware of.
    The most common being, osu athletics is a state welfare case! LOL.

    Most of this can be learned over time by paying attention to the entire paper and not the poke spin that seen in the sports pages or on the radio talk shows. You will make your self better informed if you will preform your own search.

    Yeah, I haven't lived on this side of the state my whole life (9 months now) so I rarely read the Oklahoman and I'm 24 years old so I guess I wouldn't really know what the running jokes have been for several decades. Regardless, if you could just provide some current up-to-date facts and not running jokes that would be helpful. Thanks

    Oh, I agree with that. It's just a lot of OU fans that don't seem too. They claim to be OU fans but they're really just obsessed with OSU. Maybe they couldn't get admitted?

    We think for our self’s and don't slurp up the latest poke propaganda in our local media and as a result we largely able to post the truth.
    If you continue to subscribe to your current methods of close mined thinking your list is going to be pretty long by the time you grow old and become an even bigger bitter poke than you already are.

    You can grow up, develop some self esteem, stop with the self righteous act and learn something about the pokes that is not spoon fed to you.

    It's interesting how the pokes are not even in the top 30 in division 1 FBS attendance and yet the some pokes carry on about how poke football has arrived.

    OU still claims a waiting list for 20,000 tickets in a stadium that usually has about 85,000 in attendance.

    OU should make the top ten when the stadium is expanded.

    Did you see any cheerleaders trying to trip players.

    I saw one poke cheerleader throw her pom's to the floor in discus right after osu missed the it last 3 point attempt....
    poke feelings showed their hurt................ again.

    We know poke football has arrived because OU fans are obsessed with them. Something's got you all worried.

    So do you troll OSU message boards too? You need to find a constructive hobby.

    If one has 3000 post on any message board, they need to find a new hobby. And yes would even say that to myself
