To me it is obnoxious. I mean how many billboards are there around the country, at any school in any sport, to show off championsips?

Umm, no. I'm not in favor of moving it because I think it is obnoxious, not bad-arse and unique.

Bad-arse? It is a freaking interstate billboard.

alleva has said it a couple of times, so hopefully he will come through with something

the flags are cool, but the intimidator is one-of-a-kind

I guess next you'll decide that purple and gold are really gay colors and we should change them to black & red or something.

The Tigers' sixth national title will require an addition to the new Alex Box Stadium. At the old stadium, which was replaced at the start of this year, a giant billboard—known as the Intimidator—hung behind the right-field wall, displaying the years of all five LSU national titles.

Toward the end of LSU's postgame press conference Wednesday, Mainieri called out to Alleva standing at the back of the Hall of Fame room, "Joe, are we getting a new Intimidator with a new number on it?"

"Yeah, no doubt," Alleva called back.

I wonder if they will set it up the same? Some who knows baseball better than me could answer this. I know they intend to make a bigger batters eye. Would it be possible to use the intimidator as the batters eye? or would the ball get lose in the different colors?

"How 'bout Chad Jones; isn't that most unbelievable thing?" Mainieri said. "You know who a lot of the credit for our championship needs to go to is Les Miles, our football coach. If Les wasn't so cooperative to let Jared and Chad play for us this spring, I don't know if we'd be here, because they were two critical players for us."

People, get over it, it's a sign. Do you honestly believe that a sign will cause a batter to lose concentration? Like the sign is going to jump on the field and grab him. Have any of ya'll that played sports were actually scared of some sign. My 8 year old grandson who plays soccer is scared shitless of that Drink Coke sign that is on the back fence. Signs can give people horrible nightmares. I'm sure Bama players will see Mike, on the intimidator in their dreams. New way to discipline a child. Bring said child to the Box, point at the sign, and say if you,re bad that big bad sign will come and get you.

I was at the celebration Thursday. Alleva pointed between the left field bleachers and the batters eye. He then said the intimidator would be up for the first game next year.

Nice job tee mike, but I wish it was lower and further down right field. As for Mot- he is entitled to his opinion. As for it being a billboard, well, I hope it isn't big enough for future titles to fit on. Then we will need two if them.
