The most Mississippi State Thing Ever

For Mississippi State things to stop happening.
I feel like it's one of those things in life that can't be defined. You just know it when it happens.
Wearing camouflage State gear for one.
Everything that happened in the second half saturday less the last 2.5 minutes was Mississippi State to the core
Having two penalties picked up on extremely crucial plays is definitely not MSU.
Find a $100 dollar bill and then getting arrested when you spend it because it's counterfeit.
I know I know, I've seen this movie before. Every 20 years, a bunch of crusaders come along and try to change up everything to do with MSU, and start pumping self esteem into everyone. Happened during the Croom Error and it's happening again now. Guess it just takes those triggering moments, like Jackie's demise and now Leach's death.
But most times all it takes is a good AD and coach, rather than some fan-led movement.

Imagine if you will.. you get a great job. You are excited, it pays more than you hoped, it comes with a new company car, full insurance, corner office, cherry wood desk, you can afford a large new home. You just proposed marriage to the most beautiful girl that is also your best friend who likes sports more than you do. The sky is bluer, sun is brighter, mountains are taller, the grass is greener, every song on the radio are your favorite songs. You get to work and it turns out the boss of the company went to the same college and was in the same fraternity as you and has box seats with a few extra seats. Everything is fantastic… except…
You are in Hiroshima, Japan and the date is August 6, 1945
Also see: RMS Titanic and the song Detroit Rock City.
It might be a Mississippi State Thing to choose “MoronDawg” as a message board handle. Or, it might just be a $hithead troll account.
It's like when you're headed for the beach on vacation, got a nice place right in the beach with a bit of privacy and a fully stocked bar. But you get caught up in beach traffic and that Buc-ees brisket sandwich hits bottom and you squeeze and pray you can get to a gas station, and you make there only to find the restroom is out of order and you **** down your leg in a packed out store.
Having your best defensive lineman go down with a season ending injury in the first half of game 2.
Building a 17-0 lead and then hitting a brick wall offensively for the next 41 minutes while your opponent makes adjustments on the fly and you stick with the plan that got you to that point for the next 42 minutes.

Two other similarities come to mind.

Good question. It seems kind of a fatalistic self-loathing that I suppose stems from chronic underachievement. The person you spend the most time listening to is yourself and you can tell yourself some pretty harmful things. Fan bases are no different. I really hate hearing it.

Having a Head Coach for 1 year in 1952-1953 leave and go to Minnesota where he leads them to their only Football National Championship (Murray Warmath)

For some reason, your fight song writer was inspired to include the words "... Cross the goal before you fall ..."
This sounds too accurate to be conjecture.
Winning your first National Championship - only for your in-state rival to win it the next year.
I was made for my Spurs (thank you the Mississippi State)Two other similarities come to mind.

I hope to be able to tell you "congrats" on getting an article in this week's SPS Magazine on Friday.
When you ask such questions, this is the vibe I get from you trying to act like you are a state fan:
The "woe is me" crowd says it. I've never said it and never will say it. I guess it came from when we had shots at NC games and lost. For the most part I'm a glass half full person. I have great memories of my time at State and never want to damage that with negative connotations.
Y'all can try as hard as you want to not Mississippi State, but some of us...
We tried to put the S's upside down on the backside of the south endzone scoreboard back in the day. Yes, our S font has a correct orientation.
Losing to Alcorn State this weekend would be a perfect example.
