Not sure why the OP is getting so much hate for being pleased about The Advocate's coverage of our LSU women's gymnastics team. I'm guessing it is personal and does not reflect negatively about an LSU team

I was recently critical of the Advocate for slighting the gymnastics team by providing only page 9 coverage with no pics of their last road win over Auburn. This was an SEC meet involving two top ten teams.

I pointed out the voluminous coverage of the baseball team that week including multiple pics and inane articles such as about walkup songs. Given the gymnastic team's # 3 ranking and consistent performances I thought it was a bit of a snub for the gymnastic team to get only page 9 coverage considering the baseball coverage for games against an unranked opponent. Some of the sensitive baseball crowd took offense . There seems to be some carry over in some of the responses on this thread, but I only want to duly note the Advocate has really come through the last couple of weeks.

I agree we should all want success for all teams wearing the purple and gold.
