<p>As a probable Stanford '09er, I started to tell people about my acceptance to the university. And predictably, everyone who was even ACCEPTED to Berk but isn't going immediately started to trash-talk me, especially the Stanfordium thing. I, of course, dished it right back. Represent!</p>
<p>What a fun rivalry!</p>
<p>wow get a life geek</p>
<p>Your right AmiraliR</p>
<p>...friendly people.</p>
<p>Haha, I'm going to the Big Game wearing a "Better a Berkeley Reject than a Stanford Reject" T-shirt :D</p>
<p>Let's all start flooding the Berkeley board.</p>
<p>Oh, and look at the thread I started.</p>
<p>Err.. maybe that's not a good idea. I don't like it when Berkeley people post on this board for the sole purpose of bashing Stanford, so they probably don't like the converse. Realize that most of the people that read that board probably aren't even Berkeley students, so they aren't into any sort of rivalry yet.</p>
<p>Hey i already started! hell yeah! lets flood it</p>
<p>haha yall are awesome</p>
<p>uh oh. Trash he talking!</p>
<p>yea ppl from my school going to berkeley just wont stop bothering me about the tree being the Stanford mascot...and I know its just the band mascot and i have tried to explain..but it doesnt work....those jerks!</p>
<p>For those from Stanford needing something to brag about, did you see the article in the SJMN about how Stanford is ranked, according to USNews?

<p>I am a Berkeley fan, having grown up 6 miles from the campus, but am not a Stanford hater. It all seems so silly to me. It should be Cal/Stanford vs USC/UCLA!</p>
<p>People check out all the **** talking the berk people are doing. Look at the tread i started!</p>
<p>have you no decency?
ugh</p>
<p>At first, I was not an advocate of this post war, but now I'm asking for all those Stanfordians to help. I'm not a Stanfordian, just an ally from UC Davis. We are getting owned. GO STANFORD!</p>
<p>An enemy's enemy is a friend, I guess. Welcome aboard.</p>
<p>"Have you no decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?"</p>
<p>Thanks for the welcome Uncle Feezus, btw, like someone said, there's always grad school! I'm going to work my butt so I can attend Stanford Grad school</p>
<p>UC Davis is a rival with Berkeley? I wonder if some day, all of these rivalries will turn into big mergers, and we'll end up with the huge Pepsi-sponsored elite university versus the huge Coke-sponsored elite university.</p>
<p>There should be a huge swerve and have all the Nor Cal universities against the So Cal universities.</p>
<p>Team So Cal:
USC, UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, Loyola Marymount, Cal Poly Pomona</p>
<p>VS</p>
<p>Team Nor Cal:
Stanford, UC Berk, UC Davis, Santa Clara University, USF, Cal Poly SLO</p>
<p>What an all out war that would be! AH HA, now I'm just gettin carried away.</p>
<p>Stanford, Caltech, and UC Berkley v. World</p>
