I'm still baffled by the fence comment. I wish the dumbass would come clarify what he meant by that obvious jab.

They didn't mention it. I have the series on DVD and they don't mention it once.


Then I fault ESPN for hiring dumbasses for commentators. You would think when they are here for a weekend series they would read up on what the hot topics are.

Look at the sign, as if you have never heard Gil's quote.

Is this that hard to understand?

I swear, everytime a white person mentions the Civil War now its seen as being a racial remark.

This can lead to a "was the civil war primarily about racism thread?" thread.

Look at the quote and its easy to understand.

See, it works both ways. ESPN dropped the ball if they didn't show that clipping.

But that's very typical of announcers that don't cover the team on a regular basis. I mean, did you watch the Arkansas series the weekend? Perfect example.

Once again, why has the world gotten so PC? Two white guys hold up a sign that mentions the civil war and people immediately jump to conclusions. Pathetic.

As you said before, there is a difference between a series on Cox and one on ESPN

Had he picked up a fricking paper in the lobby of his hotel room while in Baton Rouge, they would have known about the quote.

Sorry, but LSU fans and Nebraska fans have "different reputations" around the country let's say."

Yea like the way you Texas fans called them (Nebraska fans) corndogs first?

Also I can specifically member in the 90's Cornhusker heydey of having great teams several times being on ESPN for having "streakers" on their field. Not that its a big deal just saying you act like LSU fans are the scum of the earth when compared to the "Classy" Nebraska fans. I get it perception and reality are two different things but the whole bias against LSU is getting out of hand and of course it has alot to do with our recent success in the past decade the haters come out in full force when your good so It makes perfect sense.
