JetsGuy posted:It's not even the best loving NCAAFB team historically To be fair, it is a challenge to counter this claim without more than a little irony when one's alma mater hasn't claimed a championship in sixty-two years and is now an FBS school. At any rate, it would be hard to make the alumni and students of said school any more smug than they already usually are.

They're not even the most dominant collegiate sport team in the US. Look at PSU's fencing. They've won 12 titles and finished second eight times. There's only been 23 seasons. Bama doesn't even approach that level of dominance. Or PSU's women's volleyball. Or that school that wins all the swimming all the time.

"Suck it up dutchess." by BelizePats was a truly rare and amazing retort. I can't get it out of my head. Whatever shred of an argument you had is now forfeit because you were rightly called out as acting like a dutchess by some guy presumably in Belize. That moderator must now live out his life in shame.

Sash! posted:Irrelevant. They're still dominant in their sports to a degree any football team could only dream of. It's not irrelevant. A league with more dedication across the board to put out better teams because of the level of money it garners increases the competitiveness and the difficulty needed to dominate. I don't think you'd give a poo poo if some school had the undefeated pong champ as if it's equal to football. btw I'm not defending the dumbass completely incorrect comment just that your line of reasoning is bad.

Like all of us w/ making out with dudes. The Fella Frenchers are in a league of their own. I wish I could contribute more to this thread, but every Colts forum this year has just been "RG3 vs Luck!!!" or "Oh man, that Manning guy  " which doesn't make for a very compelling narrative.

I also love watching the Finebaum caller level intelligence footbaw fans explode with rage when you point out Princeton and Yale both have more national championships than ROLL TIDE. By a huge margin too. Of course, most of those were pre-WWII.  More currently, ND and Michigan have more titles. So on a purely footbaw standpoint it's an incorrect comment.

You either are the most dominant or you're not. The US Women's Beach Volleyball team completely rules their entire sport, in a way that no NHL team rules theirs. The size of their fanbase has little bearing on this.

AAA DOLFAN posted:Hum okay good points Sash. Sorry that you're too dumb to get this, I guess. Its rather simple. The premise was "some nut says Alabama football is most dominant team of all time in any sport." Which can easily be refuted with the commonly known (Steelers in the 70s) to the hilariously obscure (Penn State fencing). Two Tone Shoes posted:A league with more dedication across the board to put out better teams because of the level of money it garners increases the competitiveness and the difficulty needed to dominate. See, I'd disagree with this. People aren't going to be less competitive at their sport because "well I only do men's gymnastics and no one cares, so I'll just half-rear end it."

Sash! posted:
There's going to be a lower level of competition because the sport isn't as popular so it doesn't have all the crazy talent that might otherwise increase the level of competition flooding into it. This isn't something you can argue. It's like saying Canadian Football League has a similar level of competition to the NFL when it obviously doesn't because it's smaller, hasn't been around as long and doesn't have the money involved in it. Your point is bad and assumes that competition isn't relative.
