As an LSU fan, this thread is embarrassing to read.

People arguing on a message board about whether our fans congratulating another's team victory is proper or improper.

The mere fact your life is so deeply intertwined with LSU to allow this event to cause this much ruckus is astounding and pathetic.

Now, kindly tell me where your wife is so I can bang her and give you something else to bitch about.

It doesn't really bother me, but I will call out the sincerity of it all.


It's like a dog that realizes if he sits, if he gives his paw, if he rolls on his back, he'll get a treat from his owner. Does he want to do all this stupid bullshite? does he enjoy it? No. He just wants the satisfaction of getting his treat.

the LSU fans are the same way. At some point in time, LSU fans cheered a great play made by the opposing team, and it evolved to them cheering for scrappy teams(usually resulting in a loss) after a tough game or series at the box. To LSU fans now encouraging opposing teams to take a victory lap, a tradition that once seemed unique to LSU. Something OUR players looked forward too after winning a regional or super regional. Something that was LSU tradition.

Now where does the dog treat come in? Well, caught up somewhere in all this. LSU fans got recognition for this, usually through the media, sometimes through the opposing team's comments. "Oh, these LSU fans, they are some classy. They are something else! What a great fan base!!"


Now every time the opportunity is presented, they don't hesitate to do something "classy", because they know they will get the ole "Aw shucks, these guys are so classy!". They feed off the gratification. Which is unwarranted, considering these are the same group of fans that are notorious around the SEC for being totally opposite.

Stony Brook deserved some claps after their effort, maybe even a standing ovation if you want to push the envelope. But sticking around for a victory lap? Sportsmanship is one thing, but at this point you are shitting on tradition and homefield advantage, and you are shitting on the competitiveness & effort of our own team.

Do i really care if they do it? not really. Do i call people out that smile in my face but talk behind my back? yea, usually.

let's show the nation how classy our fans are. We should definitely not boo them or tiger bait them either.

PERFECTLY STATED.

Exactly my sentiments, hence my first post where I questioned the sincerity of it all.

Perfect

The lsu fans looked like fools high fiving the Stoney brook players while the lsu players looked on. That shite is ridiculous and should be called out.

The over zealous super fans took it too far, or we're confused.. Or something.

Exactly. Even if it's a slight to their own team.

i get what you're saying.. but then again, i don't... YOU don't know how those people feel and the reasons for acting that way... i've been at the box watching baseball games, i've clapped for awesome plays by opposing teams, i've been at super regionals applauding other teams' effort (win OR lose)... not once have i done that to be able to pat myself on my back.. i honestly DGAF what people think about me or our fanbase, which is why when it comes to football, i usually give opposing fans HELL.. now, that don't mean i won't feed them or share a brew with them, but to me, baseball is a different sport with a different mentality than football, so for you (or anyone else) to stand on your high horse and say that LSU fans do this to be able to pat themselves on the back is dead wrong..

this is the most retarded analogy i've heard on this site.. they have nothing in common

and if the fans didn't stay, you'd probably be the first ones to run here and post that LSU baseball fans are shitty because they barely stayed past the end of the game...

you are shitting on tradition and homefield advantage


shitting on it so much that opposing coaches have to take strategic trips to the mound to slow down our offensive momentum when the crowd really gets into it

I am not usually in agreement with Lester Earl, but I think he nailed this one. He was finally able to put into words what a lot of us have been thinking. I agree with every word.

this is what frustrates me about our fanbase.. the same ones complaining about the 'sincerity' of our baseball fans are more than likely the same ones who criticize our 'barbarian' football fans.. universally, good sportsmanship is more commonplace in baseball games than in football because it is less violent in nature, and it seems like the fans go by that attitude as well




ETA: lester, i'm not trying to start a pissing match with someone who is obviously a heavyweight on this site (you), i kind of get what you're saying, however, i just think that maybe some people are looking too much into it...


thats all, agree to disagree i guess
