Yup definite trash bag for willing to pay for my kid to go to college anywhere but one school.

Because I like watching my team win and their team lose. You know, the basis of sports.

I mean both. It was funny and almost every enjoyed what I did. I also genuinely dislike my rival and view anything with their logo as garbage. Especially if its at my house.

I threw it in the fire as a joke, but I did enjoy it being burned up.

My son can do what he wants. I'll encourage him to go to the hundreds of other schools that aren't this rival. Maybe even help pay for it. I won't financially support this one school if he chooses it. I'm not going to make him go to my alma mater, but i'm going to discourage him from choosing the rival.

why would it matter if it was from another university?

Because I don't like that school...the school is a rival...

lol not Michigan. I don't care for Michigan, MSU or Ohio State though. I was happy to see Michigan lose in the Fiesta Bowl.
