About once a week I check out the PSU and WVU boards for any recruiting news, especially involving those Pitt is recruiting. Well, I happened to come upon posts regarding the Pitt suspensions. Unsurprisingly, the typical reactions of rival fans didn't disappoint me. The hatred of the fanbases is over-the-top because those fans are the ones that post in those cases. All message boards are similar, and have the extreme fans. Yet, I have to laugh at the hypocrisy when they make reference to the 'culture problem' that Pitt has, not realizing the amount of criminal charges and discipline that their programs have had, without mentioning the negative publicity in their recent past. Reading the post about 'Pitt suspensions' on the BWI board made me laugh as they refer to the idiocy of the Pitt fans on here, yet post untelligently and irrationally themselves. I used to respectfully answer some of the 'misconceptions' and 'untruths' there, but don't anymore after I was personally demeaned. A fellow co-worker once told me, 'you can't rationalize with irrational people' and 'if you're full of hate, you can't think straight'. LOL. Narduzzi handled the problem, it is yet to be determined if it will have any negative effects on the season or the program. My guess is that the team will be resilient and overcome any adversity.
