I Never Stopped Believing in Our Bulldog Team

And you shouldn't either.

I Never Stopped Believing in Our Bulldog Team
Tally Duke

I have been a fan of Mississippi State for my entire life. I am the fourth generation at this school, and my grandpa even played for MSU, so I know what it is like to be a state fan.

It is a roller coaster ride, but I wouldn't want it any other way

It always breaks my heart to see students, and fans give up on the team or blame a loss on one person. Football is a team sport, so a loss is a TEAM effort.

Mississippi State football will keep you on your toes. It always has and it always will, and it is not for the weak at heart, or bandwagon fans.

It breaks my heart when I see people hating on our team

Students tweeting mean things towards our quarterback, petty Instagram captions, and flat out rude articles being written and published. The players see that stuff y'all, and I'm sure it saddens them even more.

The boys are fighters, and when needed they will step up to the plate, and even surprise you, so just because our team had one bad day does not mean you should rule them out for the rest of the season.

I will never stop believing in my school's football team

I know what it is like to be a Mississippi State fan, so I know that they will surprise everyone when we least expect it. To our awesome, talented football team: do not listen to everyone else. Just keep getting better, faster, stronger, and prove EVERYONE wrong.

Also students: I want to see you get out on that field in front of THOUSANDS, and see if you can perform as well as our boys can. Put yourself in someone else's shoes before you decide to throw out unnecessary hate.

I will be at every home game ringing my cowbell as loud as I can, and so should you fellow students. Maybe not because you are the biggest fan, but because you go to this school so at least show some respect and school spirit

This might be a little bit of a rant, but I feel like it's necessary to defend our football team from all the hate they have been receiving recently. Hail State my dudes, keep up the champion standard on and off the field and you will rise above this.

Thanks for coming to MY TED talk.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
