I don't really bring up college football with people. If someone else mentions I'll kind of go along with them for a minute and probably end up changing the subject. They usually wanna talk about something that was relevant news on TD like 18 months ago. I'm more prone to talking about sports which I am just a casual fan of like the NFL or NBA. The conversation is a lot more fun if you're both of similar knowledge.

College Football is the dominant sport talked about in my group of friends year round. Most of us know what we're talking about.

You have some that know what we're talking about, but don't get into it because they can't add anything, which I respect.

Then you have the idiot who knows absolutely nothing and agrees with 1 person all the time regardless of what he says. He'll bring up "Hey ___, I've been pumped about College Football coming up man, not just LSU. I'm really interested in the new Pac12 and Big10 stuff".

You can't discuss sports with those people, and it frustrates me. I really, really hate having to lower my IQ of sports to have a convo

I was talking to this guy that flies in once every week or so on business. He told me he was a big Vikings fan til about 4 years ago. He said it was awesome watching Randall Cunnigham and Cris Carter and Randy Moss but it hurt him too bad when they couldn't get to the Super Bowl that year.
I said ooookkkkaaayyyy! Well, see ya later....
