Tech=no bowl

One thing that is being left out is that Tech will not get a penny out of what could have been a pretty damn good money maker for them--I guess $500-$750K----But they won't lose the money that a far away bowl would have cost---the Monroes will make much needed money and bring some valuable PR that the Cajuns got last year----Along with their great early showings against ARK AUBURN and BAYLOR they will be a real recruiting threat to the TECH dominance of the last years in North Louisiana----Meantime down South, the Cajuns claim that Tech is the lowest of lowest in college football having committed the unconscionable act of screwing their team out of their bowl rights for nefarious reasons!!!! And of course we say that we have owned Monroe for the last 5 years and break attendance records of bowls on a regular basis!!! Oh life on the recruiting trail!!! As far as money goes with the new NO Bowl offer and the early run on tickets the Cajuns could come up with a 1 mil net which could give a lil bonus to the staff and be used to up our budget---Either that or let the administration take another mil away from our cut of the total budget----I'm just kidding!!! LOL

Do you remember when La Tech was invited to play in the I-Bowl a few years back and made it a condition of acceptance that they would only accept the invite if it was NOT the cajuns they would play? (see Dooley) That, and the fact they tried to do the same thing to Monroe is the reason. I know their are many good La Tech fans, but when your administration tries to screw over other instate schools, you will get no sympathy from other previously screwed over schools.

This was La Techs own fault. I do feel sorry for the players though, but it is the result pf the poor decisions by your administration.

I due find it interesting, to say the least that the Tech posters on RP were extremely sympathetic to your conference woes earlier this week...and now most of you are being truly classless back to us. Thx

Please keep us updated on this board if you don't mind. I'd be interested in hearing that interview.

There's another liberal on this board????

Liberal what? People like to label themselves liberal or conservative but rarely align with those labels when confronted on issues.

If you're talking about the boy, that's his mother's fault.

Moon and I have sons the same age I have talked to him at a few baseball tournaments. He is a good guy I would never question anyone admitting so.
