I'm not saying root for their team. I'm saying individual guys that you like. For me, I root for DT Shakelford. Kid is a class act who has battled through 2 career ending type injuries. Next would be Shawn Rawlings b/c he's from the mean streets of Madison but I doubt he plays this year.
Now it's time for me to

Hard not to root for Shackleford...but that's about it
I liked deuce while he was with the saints.
Hell no.
Tee Shepard and CJ Johnson
DT for sure. No way in hell I pull Rawlings. I also pull for Channing Ward now that he's not good (if he would've panned out I'd be seriously bitter) b/c my Dad is from Aberdeen.Quote:

CJ Johnson
Tee Sheppard
Kalio Moore
Channing Ward
Sean Rawlings
I root for them to get herpes
It's hard to pull for Tee with the signing day stuff, but it's also easy to pull for someone playing D1 football with a disability. That's deserves my respect. So I suppose I pull for him in every game that isn't against us, and we whoop his ass when we do see him. But, like I said, kid has my respect
None of the football players - **** em.
There are a few kids on their baseball team that I like seeing do well, but in the context of Ole Miss losing.
Um, no. I respect somebody like DT for battling. As a diehard State fan, I can't see me actively "rooting" for a rebelbearshark.
uh, no.
Oh and I pull for Kimchee and that little blonde headed boy he took the dong picture with to make it. It's his first college love so it's likely to flame out- but one can always hope young love perseveres
I liked Dexter McCluster. I used to hate Eli, but he makes me laugh now.
No. I don't want to see them get hurt. I hate seeing them get in trouble but I know they are prone to making bad decisions.
I root for my SP boyz, Gross & Conner. Always like seeing home town guys do well. I want them to do as well as possible while TSUN is getting beaten 75-0.
Not a chance!
Agreed.Quote:

Every MS kid isn't going to go to State. I am not going to hold any I'll will toward a kid just because he went to OM. However I don't have anything for the primadonna hat fake crowd regardless of where they are from.

Not that I necessarily pulled for them while they were at Umiss, but Deuce McAllister was hard not to like. I liked Powe. I don't have any particular feelings for Moncrief but he was a big time recruit that just went to work and hard not to respect that. Same with Willis although he wasn't a big time recruit.
I loved watching him play and he seemed like a good kid. The only reason that I stop short of saying that I liked him is because of that damn commercial with him rapping about not texting while you drive.....it made me want to throw my remote through the TV every time it came on.Quote:

Then again, I'm not a passionate rivalry/hate kind of fan either... No offense to any of you, but I don't take rivalries further than friendly ribbing and trash talk on game day. I feel like I have some prospective in life. Besides... Half of my family went to OM...
I really like that DT kid... Tunsil seems like a very mature guy, plus you have to respect his talent. Maybe Vincent Sanders, or that LB Bryant(sp?), because they seem like journeyman type players who stays out of trouble and work hard... That's about it I guess...
After Tee and CJ pulled the stunts they did, I can't root for them. Don't wish any injuries, but I have a hard time rooting for any tsun player.
Maybe it's blasphemy, but I'm a huge fan of the Mannings. They have an admirable decency that I can't help but respect. I still like saying "Archie Who?" though, just for the memory.
DT

Connor
Good one...Quote:

I enjoy watching Conner play, although I wouldn't say I route for him.
