Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

[Joe Norris]

I'll admit, I'm new to the college game...didn't watch before I got to KU....parents went to cal state fullerton so they were always NFL fans

I was the typical "I LOVE NFL" fan up until 2004....now, I barely watch...I like the NFL, but I just can't get into it anymore

Re: Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

I listened to KU games as a kid all the time, I was a Chiefs fan and watched every game. I never really watched other college football untill college. Now it is a hard to watch the NFL on sundays to keep up with my fantasy teams. I don't know if I consider myself a Chiefs fan anymore. I pull for them to win, but don't lose sleep over them like I do KU.

Re: Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

Yeah, my gf is always shocked by my connection to KU

even when I tell her that it's gonna always be that way

some dumbass she met told her I'd grow out of it.....WRONG

modify: said dumbass claimed to be a KU affiliate....I excommunicate him...probably a "bball only" fan

College. Like my pro teams, but don't plan around em, outside of playoffs.

Re: Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

I only reason I pay any attention to the pro leagues is to have fodder for watercooler discussions. The truth is, I don't give a damn.

Re: Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

College for sure.

Do I watch the NFL? Yes, because I am interested in my Fantasy team and I have nothing better to do while nursing the hangover on sunday afternoon. But if I miss a few games I really don't care.

Pro football

College basketball. I HATE PRO BASKETBALL! If KC gets a pro team they will never get a dime from me.

Re: Easy Pole: College vs. Pro

Pro football all the way.

Don't get me wrong, I love KU football and derive more enjoyment from their success than any pro victory. And I enjoy watching other good match-ups on Saturday.

But, Sunday is where it's at for me. I don't like the fact that the college game is largely determined by recruiting (especially because we are one of the have-nots). I like the parity that the NFL and the salary cap provide. Then it becomes about coaching, game plan and execution.

I also hate that the college champion is still not decided by a play off system.
