re: An invitation for LSU fans to show some love to the Cajuns (albeit unrequited)

I grew up in Lafayette, love the city still, and was a huge USL basketball fan when Shipley was dominating state basketball. But as I grew older, being an LSU fan since the age of 5 because of my father's love for LSU football, I was eventually forced to choose, by my USL friends & professional peers. The hate for LSU was that strong. So, now I am an LSU fan only. And will add this: I will pull as hard for USL , sports wise, as their fans pull for LSU. It's no coincidence that Lafayette is full of Alabama fans now.
