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

An invitation for LSU I earned a degree from USL and a post-grad degree from ULL. I was never a die hard Cajun athletics fan as a student. I played on the Cajun club inline hockey team and traveled with them to Texas and attended basketball, football, and baseball games. However, I always wore P&G to class and took a lot of shite for it, but I still hold no ill will. I pull for the cajuns and the tigers, but deep down inside I am, and always will be an LSU Fighting Tiger. Just born to it. Dad and brother,although we lived in Louisiana and my dad played football at Auburn for Shug Jordan, somehow are Bammers, but my mom and sister earned degrees from LSU. Most of my friends and my wife's family are LSU grads though. I dont understand the animosity LSU or ULL hold for each other. I just dont get it. Fans on here get super pissed at the name thing and act all superior to ULL. If I ever return to school it will be at LSU, but I wont ever hate ULL even if they call themselves Louisiana. Both are good schools filled with good people.

No offense, but you belong to the lowest form of FAN scum that exists: if you are so much of a fan of a school, attend THAT school. And support THAT school. Whether it is an lsu student wearing 'Bama gear, or a McNeese student wearing auburn gear, or a ULM student wearing Cajuns gear....that is extremely trashy, low class behavior.
Have you never heard of the expression 'dance with the one who brung ya?' I have no problem if you attend one school but support another, but for christs sakes, have enough dignity and class to not throw into everyone's face,

You remember the idiotic PR campaign about supporting USL athletics because ""It's Good for Business?" I'm sure it is. You know what's fricking BETTER for business? Supporting LSU, since there's NO DOUBT more LSU season......

---

Are you really that feeble minded?? How in the world does supporting lsu sports benefit ANY region other than BTR???? We witnessed just a TASTE of how much LFT would/will benefit....if just a fraction of the UL folks support their own school, rather than those filthy cheating corn dog folks.

Sure did, consecutive trips to the awe-inspiring New Orleans Bowl and a trip to the College World Series (just kidding, you choked on one of those corn dogs against Ole Miss). Ah, progress.

You are correct, dick face. What I should've said is 'you are the lowest scum of FANS to exist.'

---

You are a pathetic piece of crap. I go back and forth on here with Hendersonhands, Joeleblanc, cajunese and plenty of other Cajun fans but you have none of the class that they show .

You are a prime example of why I will never pull for ULLaugh, or ULolololol, or whatever you morons call yourselves these days...

And YOU exhibit class?? Did you really just say that about yourself????

What are you even talking about

I have been a diehard LSU fan living in Lafayette my entire life. Haven't missed a home LSU game since junior high.

I really have a hard time believing this statement

agree with this wholeheartedly. of course, ULL spends some of their state funding on athletics whereas LSU does not. THE BIG PROBLEM is that La simple doesn't spend enough on higher education so the ULL fans should turn their vitriol to the state legislature. also, the current law is set up that budget cuts can only occur in a few areas, education being one of them. there are way too many sacred cows in the La budget. Louisiana's problem is a spending problem, not an income problem.

Don't get sucked into the hatred. Be above the fray.


imo, there are two types of ULL fans...
-the great ones that are above the fray
-the absolute jackasses that loathe LSU and
blame LSU for all of ULL's shortcomings.

there is no escaping group two BUT we should not assume that all ULL fans are in that group.

Well said.

My problem with the group of ULL fans that blame LSU for their shortcomings/lack of funding...McNeese has beaten ULL/USL 12 out of the last 16 times they've played in Football (since 1970), with a lot less funding. At some point you need to stop playing the blame game and admit that the problem might be internal. The fact that these people are Bama fans, because of their hate for LSU, is disgusting to me.

For the record, I pull for ULL against any school other than LSU and McNeese.

They played exactly 1 time in the last 30 years and yes McNeese beat UL in 2007 (curb stomped is a better word, it was embarrassing). They discontinued playing each other every year in 1986. at the time the funding was pretty much equal between the 2 programs. so the quoted part of your post makes no sense, and you are rewarded no points .
