I also think there is something wrong when Stony Brook ends up with exponentially better talent than LSU in baseball.
That is totally irrelevant in a discussion about showing respect for an opponent.

But I can guarantee when Vandy beat LSU in hoops a couple years back I didn't go and congratulate Jeff Taylor. And I semi-know the guy
I'm not surprised by that at all.

Frankly, it appears the same posters on this board who have proven they have very little class are the same ones who now criticize other fans who DO have class. They have a difficult time understanding why fans would show appreciation for a good effort regardless of the uniform those players are wearing. Very interesting.....

you're such an absolute joke. I never criticized anyone for doing it. Said I wouldn't do it. I bet not a single person who high fived the Stony Brook players after the game tried to pound knuckles with Dre Kirkpatrick or AJ McCarron after the Alabama game though.

Bingo.

Sports = Entertainment

I paid $30 to be entertained last weekend and I was. Game 1 was great for an LSU fan, but the ending of the show wasn't.

I don't understand the thought process that, if the ending didn't come out the way I wanted, I'm supposed to be an a-hole about it.

I personally didn't stay till the end, but I'm not upset if others decided to. Not my business and I certainly won't chastise other adults for doing something nice.

That is one of the nicest things that I've seen an outsider write about LSU. Great read, and kudos to LSU baseball fans.
