They take it a little bit over the top with her over there. Its not really that big of a deal in my opinion.

That's what many schools say about us with our baseball.

It's a good thing for college sports, even if I don't care about it.

No, I would still refer to her as Skeletor.

A lot of schools have their niche sports. Look at fullerton with baseball. I personally don't give 2 shits, but GL to her since we aren't any good this year.

no,we'd have the Douchebag Brigade out in full force saying she sucked because of a loss to Ole Miss in overtime in 2004 or something.

Really........................?

In a down season, they're averaging almost 14,000 per home game in attendace. That's more than our men's team. Last night against Georgia they had over 16,000. Apparently, it's a big deal to a lot of people.

Well that's good for them.

They're still women's basketball fans, you over-zealous LSU women's basketball fan. Which just sucks... and makes me think of this:

LSUtigah,

You must really be ignorant about Women's basketball..."we aren't any good"? Fact is, we are currently tied for 3rd in the SEC...with 3 first-time freshmen starting...you tiger fans with short memories just kill me...now nothing less than championships or Final Fours means "we aren't any good"...what an ignorant point of view...here's some news, You can't be the best every year! This team is competitive and entertaining for those of us who appreciate women athletes and women's sports. They work extremely hard and may be a work in progress, but have come close to upsetting the #4 team in the country as well as playing SEC champ favorite, Vandy, the toughest up to that point in their season...so for you fair weather fans who never were around when LSU was losing more than we were winning in football...newsflash, enjoy the present, because those of us who've been through the down times appreciate every moment and we appreciate the athletes both men and women who committed to LSU knowing that it was going to be an uphill battle to excellence. Phooey on you!

Therefore not any good. See being good runs along a scale of how much I care about the sport.

If its something like Women's Basketball it takes us being a Final Four contender for me to consider us good, on the other hand with Basketball or Baseball I'm much more lenient.

Sorry I've found Women's Basketball painful to watch for quite a while.

No shite? Doesn't mean I shouldn't say we aren't any good.

Good for them. I wish them the best. Genuinely I do.

You mean the 8 year olds? Because the 90's weren't the high times of LSU football.

I do appreciate them, just from a distance, and that doesn't change the fact that we aren't any good.

I hope I'm not alone here when I say I wish the Lady Tigers could enjoy some of the tradition and accomplishments Pat Summit has led TN to.

The only way I would like her more is if she had 1,000 wins at LSU!

We'd probably nickel and dime her regarding facilities and salary and Texas A&M would come in and lure her away.
