Wasn't necessarily singling you out, but can't you see the irony in your own post?
Why Rutgers? When something happens w/ Temple, or UM, or VT, or WVU, or UConn, or BC, or damn near everyone else, why is that met w/ silence...yet, because its Rutgers, you were more than ready to post it here on this board?
And before someone says "Well, its Ray Rice, there's a history...etc", what exactly does that have to do w/ it? We've lost prized recruits to other programs before, yet it hasn't infested the fanbase mindset like Rutgers has.
Its quite simple, IMHO- why give that half-assed program ANY attention whatsoever...why?
Are they annoying? Yes...they can join the club.
Have they earned our interest thru their accomplishments? No
Do they have a history? No
Are they our staunch rival like GTown, or UConn, or even PSU? No
We hit a rough stretch in our program and some fans obsess over RU stepping up and becoming... average, and then mindlessly GIVE them rival status...like our programs are now equal. What happened to the 100 yrs of tradition and success by us, and failure and ineptitude by them? That all gets wiped out in a blink...willingly?
Btw- I have a friend who's a RU alum (maybe that's why this pisses me off so much),  and his favorite question to me & for which I have no answer, is..."Why do some SU fans constantly talk and rant about us"?  
Bottomline, if they were so irrelevant, why even mention them? And now we're both in different conferences...and the obsession continues?
Bizarre. :crazy:
