Maybe because I am from up north and don't have college football blood, but I do not understand the passion for college football.
Is it sad that I gasped when reading this? Seriously, I did. I love football. Down south, football and food - they are just a way of life.
Nah, it was the same for me in rural Indiana for high school and at Purdue. Just varies by community, I think.
have to ask what part of rural IN? It is huge here in Greene Co.
I was disagreeing with the premise that northerners aren't into football. Grew up in Carroll County (between Lafayette and Kokomo). High school Friday nights were a big deal, and Saturdays always meant the radio was tuned to the Purdue game.
edit: I don't think it's about "north" and "south". I think the midwest and the south have a lot in common this way, but neither coast as much so.
Woohoo Purdue! I live in Lafayette
Mommy to Anniston (3), Eden (1), and baby on the way. Angel baby 4/2013
This one's baby related: I can't stand the emphasis pregnant women seem to put on "cute". What's a "cute" way to tell my husband? I need a "cute" poem to tell my parents?
Seriously?? Do you live your ENTIRE life like you're a friggin Precious Moments figurine??
Also, I hate football. The only thing more boring is baseball.
I ADORE Christmas music and listen to it through November and December because a month is just not enough.
Baseball is my favorite sport
I'm from up North and college football is definitely not as popular as in the South but still a pretty big deal where I grew up.
Except I do agree with is the Penn State stuff. Anyone who is upset that Paterno was fired over this is sick. SO much more should've been done there. I feel so much disgust for the situation and my heart hurts for those poor victims. That's hardly an UO though.
I think having 4 tickers in your siggy about when your child is due is kinda annoying... one of them- sure, two of them - ok... anymore ... just pointless...

You had me until you hated on football
I agree with pp that multiple tickers is just dumb. ONE is enough--I "get" that you are pregnant. I saw the first ticker.

I think Lady Gaga is disgusting and trashy. I do not understand the appeal.
She is weird and she is totally out there, but her talent can not be denied. She writes her own lyrics, plays multiple instruments and can ACTUALLY sing live and sound damn good while doing it. She's not fake like Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus and [insert name of other random untalented twit here]
I think she's one of the best musical talents of this decade.
I think THAT may be the biggest unpopular opinion of the day around here, though. :P
None of this stuff is funny or cool and letting small children think it's acceptable is NOT ok.
It's so darn catchy. Glad I don't have an impressionable child. yet.
This is exactly why I don't listen to that crap. In our house it's only christian music, and that's what it will be for our kids too. Then, no worries of them listening to that kind of garbage that people call "music."

Re: Unpopular Opinion Thursday
Don't know that I disagree.
I don't feel like quoting multiple posts, so I'm just going to throw in my .02 here.
Robert Pattinson is very ugly. Taylor Lautner though... completely different story.
I live in a college town, so not living, breathing, and doing everything football is just weird. Saturdays in Athens are a big deal.
We're neighbors!!
Woohoo Purdue! I live in Lafayette

Man. I'm full of UOs.
I think Robert Pattinson is pretty good looking
