Not embarrassing myself nor anyone else. The point I am trying to make is that don't come here and say....Oh what about other states and schools. How do you think they feel when they lose recruits to LSU. Exactly my point. They feel and vent the same way we do. Not asking them not to be butthurt, because they should be. But don't come here as lets same a Gump and laugh in my face and say we are nothing but butthurt fans, damn right we are. Now with that being said I am done on this topic. Time to start talking about UAB

Living in Lafourche Parish and being good friends with Ruffin and God bless Big E will do that to you. I will never ever take off my purple and gold glasses because I can see right through them to the truth!

I will never support or be a well wisher for a player that chooses bama over LSU.

Fixed it.

And you can bet your arse that Hootie isn't the only one he's on to... a stud RB with the initials LF is a prime target.

Not that I think he will be successful, but he does. He wants to be the one who starts the dominoes falling for the Gumps.

And make no mistake, it is a zero sum game.

exactly. why would you wish him well at bama?

i hope he sucks at bama. i don't want any harm to him, but i hope his play is straight trash. he's going to bama and i hope they all are awful.

dstone12, go post on the East Carolina board!!

In my opinion if recruits read this site they'll come away with one thing! Tiger fans are passionate about their team. For ppl to get so bent out of shape when a LC or CRob leaves home for another program it's only natural. If we didn't love our boys in P&G then we'd all say "oooh well, good luck in Bama guy, to bad". I'll surely say that I was pretty pissed. It is his decision and hopefully he made it for the rite reasons but it doessss piss the hard core fan base off. All and all, I think it's a positive thing. If I were a recruit wanting to play for an elite program with a strong fan base, I'd def embrace and want the passion of most of the posters/fans.

Would you care to tell us what your 'fairly large global business' is?

I'm going to say no, you won't.

And for all these young Tiger Fans (which is the best fan to be), tell them what YOU (the fairly large global business man) would do if you lost out on a huge contract to another bidder.

Would you go out and wish them bad luck on Twitter?
WIsh them Injury (which is what I have been complaining about)?

Would your clients EVER give you another bid if you acted out like some of the fans here on this board have?
_____________No______________
They would assume that you are 20 years old, and inherited your dad's company; they would assume that you'd cry like a bitch, every time you lost a bid; and your company would go down faster than Miley Cyrus did on whoever that boyband kid was.

Furthermore, what would you say to your customers if your competitor lost a bid and acted out? You'd be laughing all the way to the bank because no one would ever give them any amount of business or respect, ever again.

I never said that I want him to be successful. I said that I wish him, good, but limited, luck. He goes where he wants and we go out and get who we want.

Keep it classy for God's sake.
