"I dun caughts me a possum fer sum stu, maw - kin i hav mi a chaw of yer terbacky paw?"

This is what we sound like when we talk about the rally possum. We win games because of better play than our opponent, and we lose games because of opponents play better than we did. Some possum has nothing to do with it.

Louisiana has a bad enough rep for being backwards without having some "rally possum" hype.

The tiger is our mascot and lets keep it that way.

Baseball is full of superstition and ridiculous beliefs. It helps pass the time and give players and fans something to do or think about. It's been that way for a long long time.

Touching bats a certain way, rally caps, etc etc. If it wasn't a possum it would be a bird.

You mean you got 2 up votes, I am impressed...

Apparently you really don't understand...it was Arkansas undoing last year...the boys got so hungry thinking about ways to cook it, they forgot how to play baseball...

A possum ran onto the baseball field during a game and assaulted an opposing player. On TV. Impossible to cover up our redneck/backwoods

You saw that Tony Chachere's sign at Baum, didn't you? It's not for the pork them hillbillies eat, it's for all the possums they eat...

To quote Crash Davis "never frick with a winning streak. If you believe you're winning because you're getting laid, or not getting laid, then you ARE"

If it takes a dumb arse opossum to win I don't care.

This is what we sound like when we talk
WE dont live in Kentucky. If you are gonna try to come off as a bitch at least be a bitch that makes fun of the correct vernacular.
