[QUOTE="eers-to-ya, post: 129266532, member: 1870618"] I know what I'm about to say makes no sense, but I'm saying it anyway. I realize the ByB is a big deal. The history, the nearness of the schools, the hatred on both sides, I get it. I remember the 63 - 48 WV win. I was fourteen years old. Went to one in Pburg when I was 20, with a sweet little girl from Swissvale. WV won. I went to the 88 game in Pburg. Watched A B Brown break a tackle at the line of scrimmage and run it 80 yards straight at me for a touchdown. It makes sense to renew the series, though I don't think it should be hit and miss. If they do it it should be permanent. That said, given the disrespect so many of the sPitt fans exhibit toward WVU and WVians in general. Given the school's arrogance and scheming, conniving attitude over the years, particularly the sabotaging of a chance to have a decent eastern conference back in the eighties. Given the fact that one half of the equation involves sPitt and sPitt fans, I don't care if it's never renewed. That's how much I hate that pitiful excuse of a program, which, ironically, makes for a very good rivalry and an obvious reason to renew the series. Oh, the humanity.
