I agree, but it hasn't helped to 'invite' those clever narcissists back. It seems like people want to talk about stuff other than the football team.

"Well, that's just, like, your opinion man." -The Dude, "The Big Lebowski"

The more I think about it, the more similarities I see between the U of MN football program and The Dude, actually.
 

3 worthy nominees, all from Animal House:

Otter: Flounder, you can't spend your whole life worrying about your mistakes! You *&^!#*&^!#*&^!#*&^!#ed up... you trusted us! Hey, make the best of it!


Bluto: [thrusting six-pack into Flounder's hands] My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
